Introduction For many years, studies of ion channels and transport proteins have bred distinct fields with divergent approaches, mindsets and methods. ‘ion channelologists’ focused on gating and permeation, and mumbled about obscure kinetic schemes, whereas ‘transporterologists’ studied substrate coupling and transport kinetics, and mumbled about other obscure kinetic schemes. practitioners of ...

Concrete mindsets foster self-improvement goals, whereas abstract boost self-relevance goals.

Undergraduate students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) programs face unique challenges to their psychological well-being, including sense of belonging. Recent evidence suggests that beliefs about the malleability intelligence (growth mindsets) support STEM students’ belongingness, though mechanisms this relationship are unclear. We propose test a model which personal...
