ABSTRACT Background and Context Women remain underrepresented in undergraduate computing, student leadership roles, and computing leadership positions after college. This study provides insight into these inequities by examining gender and leadership conceptions among computing undergraduate students. Objective Guided by leadership identity development and undergraduate socialization theories, I examine the relationship between college experiences and computing students’ leadership confidence, focusing on the moderating role of gender. Method This study uses regression analysis, relying on a longitudinal sample of 1,081 computing students. Findings Findings highlight the role of family, peer, and faculty interactions in predicting leadership outcomes, with special attention to conditional effects by gender. Additionally, findings reveal that leadership confidence in computing appears to be more malleable than students’ general confidence in their leadership abilities. Unfortunately, I found that computing leadership confidence actually declines over time and that computing and general leadership ratings misaligned, such that women reported lower computing leadership confidence, relative to their general leadership confidence. Implications Findings point to the importance of discipline-specific inquiry on college student leadership development. Other findings underscore the importance of fostering high quality student-faculty interactions in computing.

本科计算中的性别和领导力发展:仔细研究女性领导力概念

摘要 背景和背景 女性在本科计算、学生领导角色和大学毕业后的计算领导职位中的代表性仍然不足。本研究通过检查计算机本科生的性别和领导力概念,深入了解这些不公平现象。目的在领导认同发展和本科社会化理论的指导下,我研究了大学经历与计算学生领导信心之间的关系,重点是性别的调节作用。方法 本研究使用回归分析,依赖于 1,081 名计算学生的纵向样本。调查结果 调查结果强调了家庭、同伴和教师互动在预测领导成果方面的作用,并特别关注性别的条件影响。此外,调查结果表明,领导者对计算的信心似乎比学生对其领导能力的普遍信心更具可塑性。不幸的是,我发现计算领导的信心实际上会随着时间的推移而下降,并且计算和一般领导的评级不一致,因此女性报告的计算领导信心相对于她们的一般领导信心较低。影响 调查结果表明学科特定调查对大学生领导力发展的重要性。其他发现强调了在计算领域培养高质量师生互动的重要性。我发现计算领导信心实际上会随着时间的推移而下降,并且计算和一般领导的评级不一致,因此女性报告的计算领导信心相对于她们的一般领导信心较低。影响 调查结果表明学科特定调查对大学生领导力发展的重要性。其他发现强调了在计算领域培养高质量师生互动的重要性。我发现计算领导信心实际上会随着时间的推移而下降,并且计算和一般领导的评级不一致,因此女性报告的计算领导信心相对于她们的一般领导信心较低。影响 调查结果表明学科特定调查对大学生领导力发展的重要性。其他发现强调了在计算领域培养高质量师生互动的重要性。
