摘要

虽然近一半(40%)的黑人学生离开了STEM学科，而且种族化和性别化的社会和环境因素在黑人女性的STEM道路中发挥了作用，但人们对人际关系和关键社会资本如何促进本科STEM成功知之甚少。我们采用批判性叙事的方法，探讨了斯佩尔曼学院(Spelman College)的牢固关系如何帮助黑人女性在HBCUs及其他院校的STEM学位课程中茁壮成长。研究结果集中在105个叙述中的3个，表明黑人女性在战略上建立了动态的支持网络，包括STEM学科内外的家庭、教师和管理人员，这通常会增加机会，并更有可能坚持下去。

A Web of Support: A Critical Narrative Analysis of Black Women's Relationships in STEM Disciplines

Abstract: While nearly half (40%) of Black students leave STEM disciplines, and racialized and gendered social and environmental factors play a role in STEM pathways of Black women, less known is how relationships and critical social capital facilitate undergraduate STEM success. Using a critical narrative approach, we explored how strong relationships at Spelman College helped Black women thrive in STEM degree programs at HBCUs and beyond. Findings focused on three out of 105 narratives suggest that Black women strategically created dynamic webs of support that included families, faculty, and administrators in and out of STEM disciplines, often leading to increased opportunities and a greater likelihood of persistence.
