Abstract

Impulsivity is associated with many diagnoses (e.g., Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, etc.), but can be present at non-clinical levels for a wider population. Our prior work showed that impulsivity can negatively influence students' beliefs in their STEM abilities. While impulsivity is often associated with a negative stigma, it can also have benefits related to STEM engagement. This project will examine student perceptions of impulsivity in relation to persistence in STEM education. The data collected will be used to inform supports for STEM students by highlighting the benefits of neurodiversity in STEM education including the benefits of impulsivity as it relates to persistence in STEM education.
