Guided by expectancy-value motivation and self-efficacy, participants were asked various questions regarding changes in their perspectives of psychosocial and instrumental support and changes in their selfefficacy after participating in the STEM intervention program. Data were collected from participants (n = 80) who attended several historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs). Findings provide essential insight into motivational, mentoring, and social cognitive experiences that can bolster the recruitment and retention of URM students into predominantly White institutions (PWI) STEM graduate programs12 pagesen-USThis item is likely protected under Title 17 of the U.S. Copyright Law.
