More exciting work from @DelaTotonchi and our Motivate Lab team!
✍️🚨Excited to share @Motivate_Lab's new pub. Using multigroup SEM, we found that belonging uncertainty predicted math expectancies and costs, and in turn achievement for first-gen, but not continuing-gen, students. Free access https://t.co/VTcYjI3PlG
