Student Affect During an HBCU Summer Research Program.

The popularity and effectiveness of intensive summer research programs to increase student self-efficacy is known. The Summer Research Institute (SRI) training experience, as part of undergraduate student training in Morgan State University's NIH BUILD program, uses an entrepreneurial approach to prepare students for careers in health-related research. Bandura's self-efficacy theory's (1977) four antecedents are represented in the SRI curriculum, which provides multiple opportunities for mastery experiences and for moments of roused feelings.
