willdetermine if class year, gender, type of high-school education, and/or parents being engineers hasany significant effect on EM-PSI score. Future research hopes to demonstrate that the EM-PSI isreliable, consistent, and a good predictor of technical problem solving. EM-PSI scores willprovide educators with another tool to track the effects of pedagogical changes (i.e. flippedclassroom, problem-based learning modules, etc.) and curricular changes on student self-assessment of their critical thinking and problem solving ability.1.
