AB  - Mindset refers to a set of beliefs, attitudes, and assumptions that individuals hold about themselves and the world around them. The literature exploring mindsets suggests the existence of many mindsets relating to the performance of different tasks. Research is one such task or set of tasks undertaken by scholars that requires a mindset to perform research activities. Understanding research mindset is important because researchers are at the center of the research process. The term research mindset is used in the extant literature, but no theoretical base for the usage of this term has been established. The following work-in-progress study is a first attempt to understand the attributes of the research mindset among engineering doctoral researchers. Interviews were conducted with seven early career engineering researchers. Initial findings suggest that research mindset is comprised of six attributes: (1) open-mindedness, (2) believing in oneself and the research, (3) persistence, (4) honesty, (5) being critical, and (6) a writing mindset. The findings from this study provide a foundation for further explorations of research mindset.
