STEM Social Psychological (Simulated) Data

Description

Simulated data designed to reflect social psychological responses among college students. These data were generated to model attitudes, perceptions, and experiences of students participating in a Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) intervention program. The dataset aims to represent real- world psychological factors relevant to STEM education contexts.
