In the past four decades, it is interesting to note that the issue of gender diversity management (GDM) in education has attracted scholarly and policy attention. However, there has been little or no study on the perceptions and policy practices of GDM in Ethiopian public higher education institutions (HEIs). Therefore, the purpose of this article…

The aim was to explore potential explanatory factors for the three dimensions of willingness to intervene in cases of intimate partner violence (IPV) against women: police or personal involvement and noninvolvement. N = 280 students at a Spanish university (78.20% women) from the fields of educational, community, and interventions responded to a…

Contribution: This research examines undergraduate students' perceptions in engineering disciplines toward gender inclusivity in course curricula, focusing on three essential pillars of curricular design: course content, teaching methodology, and course assessment. Background: The shortage of women representation in STEM fields, particularly in…

It is well established that female participation in STEM diminishes at all stages of the education pipeline. National policy in Ireland is focussed on initiatives to address the STEM gender gap from early years to the end of secondary school (age 18/19) education. However, strategy in higher education is limited, with gender equality policy…

The goal of this study was to explore the differences between male and female students regarding their expectations of lecturers in asynchronous, online courses. The participants in the study were 520 BA students at a teachers' college who attended asynchronous online classes. They answered a closed-ended questionnaire about the role of the…

There are serious concerns about mental health on college campuses. Depression negatively impacts college student success. Women and transgender/gender-nonconforming students suffer from depression at higher rates than men. While undergraduate research is a high-impact practice, we know little about how depression affects outcomes among…

Female college students report higher rates of stress than their male peers. Ineffective stress management contributes to a variety of concerning health outcomes. A number of factors have been shown to promote resilience to stress, such as experiencing positive social support. Few studies have examined if gender-specific social support impacts…

Female students are underrepresented in undergraduate science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) academic courses. The problem is a lack of understanding of how female college students' perceptions of course climate and instruction affect their representation in STEM courses. A gap in the literature exists related to how female…

For students who face marginalization in a discipline, counterspaces are safe spaces of refuge that allow them to express their multiple identities and foster their sense of belonging. While prior qualitative work on counterspaces has highlighted how and why these spaces support marginalized students, there is little quantitative work that…

In today's society, the current condition of female students' career expectations is apprehensive. Most of the female students do not…

Contribution: This study enhances the understanding of the factors that impact academic performance and self-efficacy among computer science (CS) students, specifically focusing on gender differences. Background: The motivation behind this study stems from the gender disparity observed within undergraduate CS programs. This gender gap undermines…

This study aimed to assess the fertility knowledge of Japanese education undergraduates who plan to become schoolteachers and examine related factors. A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was conducted with 252 first-year education undergraduates at a Japanese university. The Cardiff Fertility Knowledge Scale (CFKS) was used to measure fertility…

Objective: College students make many important decisions related to sexual health, but little is known about their reproductive health knowledge. The purpose of the study was to examine health literacy and knowledge of female reproduction, contraception, and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in college students. Participants: Undergraduate…

While some research exists around the leadership development processes of undergraduate women (Rupert, 2019; Shetty, 2020; Torres, 2019), little exploration has explored the leadership capacity and efficacy development of college women. Dugan and Komives (2007) found that college women scored higher than their male peers on their leadership…

Entrepreneurship is a teachable issue, and certain educational approaches can affect the entrepreneurial performance of learners. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of education with the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) approach on the development of the entrepreneurial thinking skills of students who…
