CBE—Life Sciences EducationIntelligence in Context: A Context-specific Mindset Measure Better Predicts Outcomes for Science and Math Undergraduates | CBE—Life Sciences EducationMindset (beliefs about the malleability of intelligence) has been studied in a variety of contexts for decades. Recent research highlights the importance of contextual factors in moderating mindset's impact on student outcomes. The commonly-used original mindset measure is context-general. Recently, a mindset measure that is specific to science and math undergraduates was developed: the Undergraduate Lay Theories of Abilities (ULTrA) Survey. I hypothesized that a context-specific measure of mindset would associate more strongly with undergraduates’ outcomes than a context-general measure. I surveyed 1537 undergraduates with Dweck's 3-item original mindset measure, ULTrA, and measures of outcomes (sense of belonging, goal orientation, self-handicapping, evaluative concern and intent to persist in science) and collected course grades. Structural equation modeling indicated that the fixed factor of the ULTrA exhibited stronger and more consistent relationships with outcomes than the 3-item original mindset measure and predicted unique variance in outcomes above and beyond what the original mindset measure accounted for. The academic outcomes (intent to persist and course grade) were significantly related to ULTrA, but not the original mindset measure. Our results provide evidence that the context-specific ULTrA survey can detect relationships with undergraduate outcomes that the context-general original mindset measure can fail to detect.
what you pour in other people's cups shall be poured into yours. energy moves in cycles. the kindness you give, the love you share, the support you offer — it all finds its way back to you. maybe not in the way you expect, maybe not right away, but the universe has a way of returning what you put out. and here’s the thing: giving and receiving must stay in balance. you can’t keep pouring into others while leaving yourself empty. you deserve the same care, love, and attention you so freely give.

a promise to yourself. some days, it’s easy to feel like you’re not doing enough. like you don’t have what it takes. like you’re falling behind. but here’s something to remember: you are already enough, and you already have more within you than you realize. make yourself this promise today: i’ll do what i can with what i have, knowing i always have more than i’m aware of.

strength isn’t about having everything figured out. it’s about taking the next step with what’s in front of you. even when it feels small. even when it feels uncertain. trust that you carry more wisdom, resilience, and inner resources than your mind tells you. trust that you are growing in ways you can’t always see. you don’t have to have all the answers. just take the next step. that is enough. and so are you.
