Postdoctoral Associate in Psychology at NYU's Cognitive Development Lab. I study how gender, sexual orientation, and beliefs about ability/effort impact student motivation.
On the tenure-track job market this year!

"Additionally, interaction effects were found between perceived instructor and peer FABs on students’ motivation, such that instructor FABs did not affect self-efficacy in the context of high peer FABs, and instructor FABs were more impactful in terms of emotional cost."

Per our first author Echo:
"Our experimental study on field-specific ability beliefs found that perceived high FABs from instructors and peers can hinder students’ motivation, psychological experience, and behaviors."

All STEM fields are not the same! Gender stereotypes about computer science (CS) & engineering (ENG) strongly diverge from math & science. This was true for diverse students in Grades 1-12. Math stereotypes showed big variations and slightly favored girls rather than boys among many students. (4/13)

Also, thanks to @andreicimpian.bsky.social for a fantastic discussion of the current status of FABs research and some hopes for the future! (photo cred: @krisarob.bsky.social)

Digging in a bit more: One of the most important findings was that not all "STEM" stereotypes are same.
For instance, "science" masks that biology stereotypes favors girls, but physics stereotypes favor boys. And math stereotypes are tiny, on average!
