From Terman to Today (2016, background): “…importantly, incremental validity of specific abilities and preferences (interests and values) relative to each other in the prediction of educational and occupational outcomes—over 5, 10, and 20 years (Achter, Lubinski, Benbow, & Eftekhari-Sanjani, 1999; Wai et al., 2005; Webb et al., 2002, 2007).”
Sex differences in the right tail of cognitive abilities: A 30 year examination (2010, background): “We should, of course, continue to equally encourage both women and men to pursue careers that they are passionate about (Pinker, 2008; Webb, Lubinski,&Benbow,2002),includinghighlevelcareersinSTEM.”
How Development and Personality Influence Scientific Thought, Interest, and Achievement (2006, background): “In addition, in a sample of mathematically precocious students who immediately after high school said they intended to major in math or science, five years later men were more likely to have received engineering and physical science degrees and women more likely to have received biological science a”
Sex differences in intrinsic aptitude for mathematics and science?: a critical review. (2005, result): “They also graduated at equal rates and obtained an equal number of doctoral degrees (Lubinski & Benbow, 1992; Lubinski et al., 2001; Webb et al., 2002).”
Trajectories of career aspirations through adolescence and young adulthood: Early math achievement as a critical filter (2006, background): “Despite the prevailing perception that many adolescents are uncertain about their futures, career aspirations during this developmental period have been shown to be predictive of subsequent educational attainment and eventual occupational choice (eg, Farmer, Wardrop, Anderson, & Risinger, 1995 ; Sc”
Women's underrepresentation in science: sociocultural and biological considerations. (2009, background): “But math ability does not appear to trump other factors in accounting for the underrepresentation of women in math-intensive fields: Benbow, Lubinski, and colleagues have demonstrated differences among men and women who are highly talented in mathematics in terms of who majors in STEM fields and who”
