One method for reducing gender and racial segregation in career fields is addressing sorting by major in college. However, previous research has not examined the full process of major sorting; few studies have explicitly explored the majors of which students are aware or the majors that students consider choosing. In this study, we use survey data from community college students to examine differences in the size and composition of awareness and consideration sets of groups of students. We find significant differences in the size of awareness sets and the composition of consideration sets in our sample. Applying the methodological advances from this study could help college administrators identify key opportunities, in timing or methodology, for supporting and guiding students’ decisions.

性别和种族意识和课程设置考虑上的差异:探索主要选择的多阶段模型

减少职业领域性别和种族隔离的一种方法是解决大学专业的分类问题。但是,先前的研究并未检查主要分类的整个过程。很少有研究明确探讨学生知道的专业或学生考虑选择的专业。在这项研究中,我们使用来自社区大学生的调查数据来检验在意识的大小和组成以及学生群体的考虑因素方面的差异。在我们的样本中,我们发现意识集的大小和考虑集的组成存在显着差异。应用这项研究中的方法学进步可以帮助大学管理者在时机或方法上确定关键的机会,以支持和指导学生的决策。
