• Who Aspires to a Science Career? A comparison of survey responses from primary and secondary school students (2015, background): “…over time may be strongly mediated by science capital and that children whose families have higher levels of science capital (e.g. parents with science degrees and/or who work in science jobs) are much more likely than their peers to express science aspirations (see Archer et al., 2014).”
• An Informal Science Education Program’s Impact on STEM Major and STEM Career Outcomes (2020, background): “To exacerbate this problem, there is evidence that positive science attitudes decline as youth make the transition from elementary school to middle school, and again from middle school to high school (Archer et al. 2014; Tytler and Osborne 2012).”
