Science stereotypes include robust beliefs that science fields lack opportunities to fulfill prosocial goals. These beliefs reduce student interest in science-especially for racial/ethnic minorities. Highlighting the prosocial utility value of science in textbooks can change these beliefs to promote undergraduate student interest.
