摘要：

The Draw-A-Software-Engineer Test (DASET) is a research tool employed to study children's perceptions of societal norms, gender biases, and stereotypes. In this particular study involving nine university students, participants were asked to draw a software engineer and provide descriptive analyses through a questionnaire. The results demonstrated that students effectively conveyed their mental models and recognized stereotypes associated with Software Engineering (SE). The study concludes that the DASET is valuable in understanding students' self-perceptions in the context of SE, with future research aiming to explore this aspect further.
