Presents results from two studies conducted as part of the evaluation activities of the FUNTIVITIES project, a National Science Foundation (NSF)-funded project to increase girls' and women's interest and comfort level in science and math. Girls showed a slightly higher mean, implying greater recognition that achievement in science and math is not related to gender. (Contains 27 references.) (Author/ASK)
