Academic development factors significantly influence women's persistence in mathematics and statistics, with 91% rating coursework relevance as key.
Quality of instruction also plays a critical role, with 70% of participants citing its impact on their decision to continue in mathematics-intensive programs.
Social support structures, including peer and faculty-student interactions, are less influential on retention than academic factors, highlighting a potential area for improvement.
Future research should focus on longitudinal studies to better understand ongoing challenges and effective strategies for enhancing women's representation in STEM.
