Objective: The purpose of this study was to understand the experiences of historically underrepresented graduate students, more than half of whom were enrolled in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines, during the COVID-19 pandemic. This focus group study represents an initial stage in developing an intervention for historically underrepresented graduate students and their families.
Background: Underrepresentation of graduate students of color in STEM has been attributed to a myriad of factors, including a lack of support systems.
Purpose: Within the millennial population cohort, identify groups reporting increased risk of nonspecific psychological distress. As the largest living population cohort, taking stock of health and well-being early is necessary as substantial national resources may be needed as this cohort ages.
Design: The 2017 National Health Interview Survey data, an annual multipurpose survey of the US population, was used.
