Master, Allison; Cheryan, Sapna; Meltzoff, Andrew N. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2016
Computer science has one of the largest gender disparities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. An important reason for this disparity is that girls are less likely than boys to enroll in necessary "pipeline courses," such as introductory computer science. Two experiments investigated whether high-school girls' lower…
