Abstract | In 2014, ACT developed a method to identify high school students who had an interest in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM)-related fields. By using ACT data elements, this method provided two different types of STEM interest: Expressed and measured. Based on these STEM interest types, students can be assigned to one of four STEM interest groups: Expressed and measured, expressed-only, measured-only, or an interest in non-STEM majors. This brief summarizes the results of a study that assessed the validity of this approach. (ERIC). |
