developed to promote underrepresented girls’ future possible selves and career
pathways in computer-related technology fields. We hypothesized that the
COMPUGIRLS would promote academic possible selves and self-regulation to
achieve these possible selves. We compared the growth trajectories of academic
possible selves and self-regulation between the program participants and a comparison
group using latent growth modeling for two semesters. There was no significant
group difference in the growth trajectories of academic possible selves. The findings
support that the COMPUGIRLS did not accelerate the program participants’ academic
possible selves. However, the program participants had a significantly higher
growth rate in self-regulation than the comparison group. We argue that the higher
growth rate of self-regulation could help the program participants achieve academic
possible selves which is important for choosing technology career pathways.
