Repeated measures ANOVA and Tukey multiple comparison tests were conducted to compare participants’ engagement in the skills and practices of science outside the scope of the program based on a composite score of four activities: (1) reading scientific articles; (2) discussing science with friends; (3) discussing science with family; and (4) thinking about science-related problems. Participants exhibited significant increases in engagement of science practices in non-program contexts over two different timepoints (composite score of 4 practices in non-program contexts; estimate: 10.647; SE = 0.676; df = 32; t = 15.759; p < 0.001)
