Although interest in study abroad has grown consistently in recent decades, study abroad professionals and higher education
scholars have been unable to explain or rectify the long-standing gender gap in study abroad participation. This study applies
an integrated model of the student-choice construct to explore differences between male and female intent to study abroad.
Results indicate that, not only can various forms of social and cultural capital predict student decisions about curricular
opportunities during college such as study abroad, but gender plays a substantial role in altering the ways in which those
forms of capital shape student decisions differently. These findings present a range of implications for researchers interested
in better understanding the decision making process of college students as well as study abroad professionals and national
policymakers intent on narrowing the gender gap in study abroad participation. 相似文献

This study employed the Semantic Differential technique to investigate the relationship between informal interaction with students and the accuracy with which faculty members project students' perceptions of the institutional climate at two colleges of Arts and Sciences. When subdivided into nominal categories of high, moderate, and low interactors on the basis of their frequency of informal, out-of-class contacts with students, high interactors were found to project consistently more accurate student ratings of the climate on a bureaucracy factor than low interactors. A similar, though not consistent, relationship was found between high and low interactors on an intellectualism/scholarship dimension. 相似文献

Self-concept development and educational degree attainment 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The present study explores changes in the academic, social, and artistic self-concept of college students over a nine-year period. While the findings demonstrate a positive relationship between the educational degree attainment levels of students and their formation of a more healthy self-concept, the findings further indicate that the relationship is not consistent for males and females. In general, the findings suggest that the collegiate experience does not diminish self-concept gender differences that exist at the time of matriculation. The degree to which changes in students' self-concept is related to selected aspects of their collegiate experience and characteristics of their undergraduate institutions is also explored. The findings indicate that changes in students' self-concept is related to their level of social and academic integration during their undergraduate careers and to the size and selectivity of colleges they attend. The implications of these findings for enhancing students' self-concept during the college years are discussed. 相似文献

Based on a comprehensive review of the last twenty years of research on the influences of college on students, this article discusses conceptual and methodological recommendations for enhancing future assessment and college impact studies. The recommendations deal with isolating net college effects, studying the timing of change, estimating college effect sizes, examining indirect and conditional effects, and the potential benefits of qualitative approaches. Areas for future inquiry are also identified.Presented at the Annual Forum of the Association for Institutional Research, Louisville, KY, May 13–16, 1990. 相似文献

With the purpose of gaining a better understanding of the impacts that attending a work college may have on students while
in college and up to 25 years later, this study estimated the effects of graduating from a group of work colleges on alumni
educational and employment outcomes. Based on an overall sample of 7083 alumni from 5 work colleges, 20 private liberal arts
colleges, and 5 public regional universities, a series of regression equations tested for differences across a range of college
and employment related outcomes. With respect to a variety of facets of undergraduate educational outcomes, results indicate
that attending a work college, relative to other types of institutions, has significant long-term effects. With respect to
socioeconomic outcomes, results indicate that work colleges provide the greatest benefit to students from families with relatively
low parental incomes.

This study estimates the relative and unique effects on changes in critical thinking of three dimensions of students' college experience: curricular exposure, formal classroom and instructional experiences, and out-of-class experiences. Students' classroom/instructional and out-of-class experiences both make positive, statistically significant, and unique contributions to gains in critical thinking above and beyond students' precollege characteristics and level of critical thinking. Theoreticians have long speculated that students' academic and nonacademic experiences jointly influence change, and this study supports that belief. The design and instruments in this study may be of interest to persons involved in assessment or the study of college impact.Paper presented at the meeting of the Association for Institutional Research, New Orleans, LA, May 1993.The National Center on Postsecondary Teaching, Learning, and Assessment is funded by the U.S. Department of Education, Office of Educational Research and Improvement (OERI), under Grant No. R117G10037.

This study sought answers to three questions: (1) Do the precollege characteristics of first-generation students differ from those of traditional students? (2) Do first-generation students' college experiences differ from those of other students? (3) What are the educational consequences of any differences on first-year gains in students' reading, math, and critical thinking abilities? Answers come from 2,685 students (825 first-generation and 1,860 traditional students) who entered 23 diverse institutions nationwide in Fall 1992 and who completed one year of study. First-generation students differ from their traditional peers in both entering characteristics and college experiences. Although traditional students make greater net gains in reading during their first year, the two groups gain to about the same degree in math and critical thinking skills. Those gains, however, appear to result from somewhat different experiences. 相似文献
