Chapter 1Introduction: Why Do We Need Identity in Physics Education Research?

Gonsalves, Allison J.; Danielsson, Anna T.

Pages: 1 –8

[Over several decades, studies have documented differences between men and women’s achievement and participation in physics, or have sought social or psychological explanations for differences in physics engagement. This dualistic understanding of gender and its consequences for physics learning...

Chapter 2Going, Going, Gone: A Feminist Bourdieusian Analysis of Young Women’s Trajectories in, Through and Out of Physics, Age 10–19

Archer, Louise; MacLeod, Emily; Moote, Julie

Pages: 9 –28

[This chapter draws on longitudinal interview data collected from seven young woman in England who were tracked from age 10–19 and who had all expressed an aspiration at age 16 to study Advanced level (A level) physics. Applying a feminist Bourdieusian conceptual lens, we explore their...

Chapter 4An Intersectional Physics Identity Framework for Studying Physics Settings

Johnson, Angela

Pages: 53 –80

[This chapter reports on research featuring three women physics majors of color who had generally positive things to say about their experiences in physics. This chapter presents data that helps us to understand the physics identity which is available in a setting where women of color feel...

Chapter 5Urban College Students Negotiate Their Identities to Dis/Connect with Notions of Physics

Jammula, Diane Crenshaw; Mensah, Felicia Moore

Pages: 81 –96

[Using ethnographic methods gathered from an insider (the physics teacher) this chapter distills stories of students in physics labs that highlight the intersections of masculinity, femininity and racialized subjectivities. Data suggests that White, middle class, masculine subjectivities align...

Chapter 8Disability in Physics: Learning from Binary Mistakes

Traxler, Adrienne; Blue, Jennifer

Pages: 129 –152

[If you are White, male, cisgender, straight, and able-bodied, you can say something as simple as “I am a physicist” with relative ease. The more those descriptors are different, though, the more complex the story becomes in the minds of others, yourself, or both. A simple claim such as “I am a...

Chapter 10Conclusions Part I: Responding to Frameworks and Methodologies that Attend to Gender in Physics Education: Practical Implications for Higher Education

Dounas-Frazer, Dimitri R.

Pages: 171 –176

[In their chapter, Diane Crenshaw Jammula and Felicia Moore Mensah (Chap. 5) demonstrate that physics students’ subjectivities are dynamic and gendered, but not essential characteristics of their sex.
