Computing Identity and Persistence Across Multiple Groups Using Structural Equation ModelingAbstractDespite the projected growth of computer and information technology occupations, manycomputing students fail to graduate. Studying students’ self-beliefs is one way to understandpersistence in a school setting. This paper explores how students' disciplinary identity sub-constructs including competence/performance, recognition, interest, and sense of belongingcontribute to academic persistence. A survey of 1,640 students as part of an NSF grant wasconducted at three South Florida metropolitan public universities. A quantitative analysis wasperformed which included a structural equation model (SEM) and a multigroup SEM. The

], many universities and colleges have sought to introduceglobal programming to engineering as part of extracurricular or formal programming. Many ofthese are framed around global study abroad experiences, with scholars noting that even short-term experiences can lead to heightened understandings of globalization and cultural awareness[37]-[39]. However, the continuous limitations of privilege, cost, and time additions on degreecompletion continue to be evident, and rarely have extended to graduate student populations (withthe exception of a few instances noted in literature via NSF IGERT programs and similar, such asthe study performed by Berdanier et al.

Additionally, the availability of data from both cohorts will allow us to comparetheir outcomes at corresponding points in time. A key distinction in the experimental setupbetween Cohorts 2024 and 2025 is that Cohort 2024 did not have access to the engineeringworkshop during their first semester, whereas Cohort 2025 will have access from the outset.Works Cited[1] N.
