Evaluation of the Long-Term Impact of a University High School Summer Science Program on Students' Interest and Perceived Abilities in Science (2004, background): “be key motivating factors in student’s attitudes toward science (Gibson and Chase, 2002; Knox et al., 2003 ) and their perceived ability to succeed in advanced science courses (such as AP Biology), and can dramatically increase their enthusiasm toward pursuing a career in science.”
Education in the Field Influences Children’s Ideas and Interest toward Science (2006, background): “Knox et al. (2003) and Markowitz (2004) showed that summer science programs significantly influences students’ attitudes and knowledge in science.”
The dimensions and impact of informal science learning experiences on middle schoolers’ attitudes and abilities in science (2016, background): “Participating in informal science learning experiences can increase student competency beliefs, and thereby increase science-related career interest (Knox et al., 2003; Markowitz, 2004; Simpkins et al., 2006; Stake & Mares, 2005).”
The impact of college‐ and university‐run high school summer programs on students’ end of high school STEM career aspirations (2018, background): “, 2014) and to increased interest in pursuing a science career (Knox et al., 2003).”
