Despite detailed analyses by researchers from a variety of disciplines, the number of women and underrepresented ethnic minorities entering and completing programs in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) is increasing more slowly than had been hoped. The articles contained in this issue represent cutting-edge research by some of the top researchers in social psychology, developmental psychology, education, and medical sciences. The articles cover broad ground with regard to topic of study, age focus, methodology, and level of analysis. The research contained in the issue has the potential to have an impact on policy and program development and serves as a catalyst for further thinking on this important social issue.
Moin Syed is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. His research is broadly concerned with identity development among ethnically and culturally-diverse adolescents and emerging adults, with particular focus on the development of multiple personal and social identities (e.g., ethnicity, social class, and gender) and the implications of identity development for educational experiences and career orientation. Martin M. Chemers received a Ph.D in Social Psychology from the University of Illinois, Urbana. He is presently Professor Emeritus and Research Professor of Psychology at the University of California, Santa Cruz. His current research is supported by the National Institutes of Health and is focused on understanding and developing the individual and institutional changes needed to increase the number of under-represented minorities in STEM education and careers.
