Implementing a peer role model program in college calculus classes to broaden women’s participation in STEM. Assessing high school students’ cost concerns about pursuing STEM: “Is it worth it?”. Not the sum of its parts: Decomposing implicit academic stereotypes to understand academic outcomes. In my intervention-based work, I investigate how counter-stereotypic ingroup members (role models) buffer fellow ingroup members from the threat of negative ability-based stereotypes. In my research on understanding the processes underlying stereotype-based performance effects, I examine the role of emotions, cognitions, identity salience, and the concerns associated with experiencing stereotype threat. Although I take a social-cognitive approach to understanding the processes underlying the impact of stereotypes and group-based differences, my research also has an applied quality to it because I focus on interventions against the negative effects of these biased perceptions. I examine these issues largely from the target, rather than the perpetrator’s perspective.
