Professional Role Confidence: Expertise, Career-Fit and Relational Confidence Presented to UC ADVANCE PAID Roundtable 2 By Carroll Seron Department of Criminology, Law and Society University of California, Irvine October 17, 2012

Collaborators Susan Silbey, MIT Brian Rubineau, Cornell Erin Cech, Rice

The Sties of Study

Some Highlights of the Design 6 ½ year panel study, yearly surveys to panel, n=700 in-depth interviews, years 1 and 4, n=64 bi-monthly diary submissions, years 1-4, n=40.

Situate my work in context of Ong, et al. General findings: professional role confidence is key for behavioral persistence—staying in a STEM field— and intentional persistence—plan to enter a STEM professional field. The experiences of minority women in engineering: some broader lessons. Policy implications. Overview of Comments

“Inside the Double-Bind” -Among other factors, “academic self- concept, self-efficacy, and overall confidence” are key ingredients for persistence. - The challenges of collaboration: “a practice commonly associated with femininity [that] has been appropriated by the scientific culture with the effect of chiefly helping men and harming women” (Ong 2005: 599).

Toward a more nuanced understanding of self-confidence

Expertise confidence: tasks and competencies required of a professional. Career-fit confidence: confidence that the professional role will suit the individual.

Findings: Professional Role Confidence. Expertise Confidence: -Men enjoy significantly larger endowments of expertise confidence than women. -Expertise confidence particularly significant in predicting behavioral persistence, intention to stay in major. Career-Fit Confidence: -Men enjoy significantly larger endowments of career-fit confidence than women. -Career-fit confidence particularly significant in predicting intentional persistence, plans to be an engineer in five years.

The Experiences of Minority Undergraduates in STEM Fields For Asian/Asian American and Hispanic students effects of PRC are significantly stronger, net of controls and compared to Whites; Suggests that minority students in STEM have to work a bit harder to develop expertise and career- fit confidence..

What of Minority Women in STEM? -Nine minority women across sites of study; -Based on interviews in years 1 and 4 (n=64); -Important note: ALL stayed in a STEM field. -So, we may ask: What strategies did these minority women deploy to cultivate professional role confidence, particularly career-fit confidence?.

STEM and Making a Social Difference.

Social Class Matters.

Stereotypes.

Social Support Networks.

Resilience.

Professional Role Confidence = Expertise + Career-Fit What’s next? Relational Confidence -Dealing with peers, supervisors, mentors, colleagues; - Comfort with organizational culture: humor, mannerisms, demeanors, dress..

Policy Implications: Success is about more than expertise. Required seminars that take seriously career-fit and relational confidence for all entering Ph.D. students; Guided by literature and experts about forms and challenges of racial/ethnic and gender biases in STEM fields; Explicit discussion of multiple career paths..
