A review of 10,000 students found no evidence that men outperform women in some science courses—which could help end stereotypes that harm women in STEM

Recent study is the first large-scale analysis of characters featured in science, technology, engineering, and math-related educational programming

The researchers found that gender differences in high school students' occupational plans have a large effect on gender differences in STEM outcomes in college

“We know that women are underrepresented in fields whose members believe you have to be brilliant to succeed,” explains study's lead author

However, the researchers also caution that more work is needed to investigate how broadly these results apply
