Based on your classmates’ descriptions, which research article inresearch article sharing(other than your own), did you like best? Why?
In the file is the postI chose from my classmate. Her name is Summer Deboom, pls help me to write the assignment.


A In the Social Science article, Under the influence of our older brother and sister: The association between sibling gender configuration and STEM degrees, by Roujman Shahbazianab, a study was conducted to experiment with families housing two siblings. The meaning of the experiment was to find out how gender segregation from society and family would influence siblings and their future careers in STEM. While using some of the most complicated equations I've ever seen (STEMi=α+β1 (older sibling STEMi) + β(all controlesi)+εi) in addition to the Swedish population data and education registration documents, the researchers came up with the vital outcome which was that the second-born sibling in the family is more likely to pursue a STEM career if their older sibling has a background in STEM than compared to an older sibling with a different educational experience or educational characteristics (Shahbazian 2021). Along with that conclusion, they also finalized this: "Girls are more likely to choose a STEM field if they have an older sister who has attended a STEM program than if they have an older brother in a similar program" (Shahbazian 2021). Given that the STEM program is male-dominated, this conclusion implies the importance of "same-sex role models for young girls contemplating gender-atypical educational choices" (Shahbazian 2021). When I found this article, I was fascinated by the study of older sibling influence in Sweden. I chose this article because I myself am a big sister; I have two younger sisters. I like to think that I influence my sisters to do the right thing along with many other activities. I consider influence from an older sibling to be highly appreciated and important. Younger siblings will look to their older siblings as a stepping stone for what they should do and how they should act until they find their own personalities. When my family moved to Washington, I insisted that my sisters should do a swim team, and now it's their favorite sport, and they like to compete. Older siblings are the primary influence for their younger siblings, so when I read about an experiment conducted in Sweden about sibling influence, I couldn't turn down a chance to read about it.
