Long, Anna C. J.; McIver, Elise C.; Olinger, Rachel M.; Bolognino, Sarah J.; Renshaw, Tyler L. – Communique, 2015
Schools often need to implement evidence-based interventions (EBIs) in contexts and with client populations that differ from those present during intervention development and validation. Due to the differences in intervention conditions, schools inevitably make adaptations to interventions to be responsive or to operate within present constraints.…

Knezek, Gerald; Christensen, Rhonda; Tyler-Wood, Tandra; Gibson, David – Journal of STEM Education: Innovations and Research, 2015
Data gathered from 325 middle school students in four U.S. states indicate that both male (p < 0.0005, RSQ = 0.33) and female (p < 0.0005, RSQ = 0.36) career aspirations for "being a scientist" are predictable based on knowledge of dispositions toward mathematics, science and engineering, plus self-reported creative tendencies. For…
