In higher education, research courses are an integral part of all academic majors that intend to help students in becoming better readers and/or authors of research. However, there is a paucity in instruments that measure various constructs that are related to research education. The 13-item revised scale of attitudes toward research is one of the…

Evelyn Abagayle Boyd; Kelly Best Lazar – Scholarship and Practice of Undergraduate Research, 2024
Undergraduate research is a high-impact educational practice. However, few studies have analyzed the opportunities and barriers to entry into undergraduate research experiences. A survey for the measurement of undergraduate research science capital (URSC) was developed, rooted at the junction of science capital and social cognitive career theory.…

Fostering Metacognition and Feedback Loops in a Summer Undergraduate Research Program: A Pilot Study
Kaytlin Gomez; Chad Curtis – Scholarship and Practice of Undergraduate Research, 2024
Undergraduate research experiences are a documented high-impact practice affecting student learning, attitudes, and career outcomes. However, many of these reported benefits are associated with longer-term research experiences. This study pilots the use of a small group metacognition activity in a 10-week summer undergraduate research program. It…
