3. Perceptions of Self-Efficacy among STEM Students with Disabilities

Author

Jenson, Ronda J., Petri, Alexis N., and Day, Arden D.

Abstract

Numerous studies examine the relationship between self-efficacy and positive outcomes for postsecondary students. Collectively they echo that self-efficacy is an essential component to positive outcomes. Relatively few studies focused on students with disabilities majoring in STEM fields. Twenty postsecondary students with disabilities participated in focus groups organized around Bandura's key factors leading to self-efficacy: mastery experiences, vicarious experiences, social persuasion, and physiological reaction. By pairing participant-response devices, commonly known as "clickers," with traditional qualitative methods, students provided their individual perspectives as well as reacted to collective responses. Several cross-cutting themes emerged from the study. Instructors set the tone for learning and consequently highly influence confidence, motivation, anxiety and stress, and ultimately success. Applied learning is important, especially in team settings. A student's sense of self influences his or her perceptions of self-efficacy. The results offer insight into designing support services and measuring self-efficacy with this population. (Contains 1 table and 1 figure.)

Abstract

Background: Collective efficacy (CE) is a group’s shared belief that through their united efforts they can overcome challenges to achieve common goals (Bandura, 1993; 1997). CE has been shown to be related to professional growth, stress reduction, and overall collaborative impact in studies of groups responding to ongoing challenges as well as unforeseen circumstances (i.e. teachers, first-responders, and community responses to natural disasters) (Benight, 2004; Donohoo, 2016; Prati et al., 2011). COVID-19 has forced organizations serving individuals with disabilities to come together to adapt and change the ways in which they serve the disability community. Objective: This study examines reported attributes of CE as experienced by Arizona Developmental Disability Network (ADDN) members and their partners. This study respectively examines CE prior to COVID-19, currently, and predicted likelihood of CE attributes continuing in the future. Method: This mixed-method study involves data collected through a questionnaire and qualitative data collected through interviews with ADDN members and their partners. Results: The questionnaire results describe and compare the attributes of CE using sub-domains of social cohesion and trust, group competence, and enabling structures in three-time frames: prior to COVID-19, currently, and prediction of six months from now. The interviews provide narrative description of specific ADDN activities, roles, and perceptions; thus, adding a valuable dimension to interpreting the results. Conclusion: ADDN members and their partners have persisted and quickly adapted to COVID-19. These connections made during this time are likely to remain and help better serve Arizona’s disability community.
