Over the last decades, researchers have attempted to explain the reason of the lack of interest that students, particularly girls, show toward science college degrees and careers. According to Social Cognitive Career Theory (Lent, Brown & Hackett,1994), the career interests are strongly predicted by self-efficacy beliefs and self-efficacy beliefs may be influenced by different sources (mastery experience, vicarious experience, social persuasion and physiological states). Previous researches demonstrated that students who have a strong belief that they can succeed in science tasks and activities will be more likely to select such tasks and activities, work hard to complete them successfully, and persevere in the face of difficulty (Lent e...
