Can Stereotype Threat Explain the Gender Gap in Mathematics Performance and Achievement? (2012, background): “…(Spencer et al., 1999) in Adult Participants Study Effect Adjusted Josephs, Newman, Brown, & Beer (2003) Yes Yes Brown & Josephs (1999) Yes Yes Lesko & Corpus (2006) Yes Yes Gonzales, Blanton, & Williams (2002) Yes Yes Johns, Schmader, & Martens (2005) Yes Yes Keller (2002) Yes Yes Osborne…”
Identification with Academics and Motivation to Achieve in School: How the Structure of the Self Influences Academic Outcomes (2011, background): “Some researchers (Jones et al. 2010; Lesko and Corpus 2006 ) have modified this devaluing scale by reverse coding all of the items; thus, creating a scale that measured domain identification.”
Separating Implicit Gender Stereotypes regarding Math and Language: Implicit Ability Stereotypes are Self-serving for Boys and Men, but not for Girls and Women (2011, background): “Negative stereotypes concerning women’s math ability can undermine women’s performance goals (Smith 2006); they can further undermine math performance and interest in math (e.g., Davies et al. 2002; Gresky et al. 2005; Lesko and Henderlong Corpus 2006; Spencer et al. 1999); finally, gender stereot”
The role of STEM professors’ mindset beliefs on students’ anticipated psychological experiences and course interest. (2020, methodology): “…competency beliefs, particularly among women (Vincent-Ruz, Binning, Schunn, & Grabowski, 2018), we assessed math and science identification with two items used in past research to measure domain identification among women in STEM (Lesko & Corpus, 2006; Murphy et al., 2007; Spencer et al., 1999).”
Not Feeling Good in STEM: Effects of Stereotype Activation and Anticipated Affect on Women’s Career Aspirations (2017, methodology): “The items were selected and adapted from previous measures (Lesko and Corpus 2006; Spencer et al. 1999) in order to include several aspects of domain identification.”
