Alicia L. Macchione; Donald Sacco; Mitch Brown – Journal for STEM Education Research, 2025
Recent work indicates that gender-inclusive advertisements can increase women's involvement in STEM fields. However, it remains less clear whether these inclusionary efforts would benefit more from focusing on the pragmatic utility or moral need for inclusivity. This study extends this work by determining the extent to which two unique inclusivity…
