Instrument Overview
Expert Notes AvailableView expert commentary on strengths and cautions for this instrument
Strengths
Well suited for examining whether computationally rich science activities are associated with changes in students’ career interests
Cautions
Targets computationally intensive science careers and thus is less useful for studies examining general STEM career interests
Relies on self-report rather than actual course-taking decisions or career trajectories
The Computationally Intensive Science Career Interests Instrument (CISCI) is an instument that explores middle school students' interests in disciplines and careers requiring both traditional scientific knowledge and computer science (CS)-related understanding and skills. It contains 5 constucts or dimensions: CIS career value, CIS academic self-efficacy, CIS career self-efficacy, CIS career interest and goal, and CIS parental supports and role models.
