摘要: 当前在STEM (科学、技术、工程、数学)领域，男女人数存在较大的差距，女性代表性不足。随着新高考改革，学生在高中阶段面临选择未来的专业和方向的问题。而学生所持有的性别刻板印象会对他们选择STEM这些专业的动机产生影响。文章总结以往研究，发现性别刻板印象会通过能力认知(自我概念、自我效能感)、兴趣来影响学生选择STEM专业和学习这些领域知识的动机。
Abstract: Currently, there is a large gap between men and women in STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) fields, and women are underrepresented. With the reform of the new college entrance examination, students are faced with the problem of choosing their future majors and directions in high school. Gender stereotypes held by students can have an impact on their motivation to choose STEM majors. This paper summarizes previous research and finds that gender stereotypes affect students’ motivation to choose STEM majors and learn knowledge in these fields through ability perception (self-concept, self-efficacy) and interest.
