Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: College Student Psychological Adjustment provides the reader an in-depth understanding of students’ relationship experiences in college and how those experiences shape their adjustment to college. Each chapter examines research on one key relationship in a student’s life to better understand how those relationships are re-worked during the college years and what factors help determine adaptive relational outcomes. Along the way, a number of controversial topics are considered from a scholarly perspective, including the effects of helicopter parenting on students’ development in college, the prevalence and problematic nature of the hook-up culture on college campuses today, and policies related to whether students should be randomly assigned to live with their first-year roommates or be allowed to choose their roommates, based on a matching system. Aimed at advanced students and scholars in the fields of psychology, human development, and higher education, readers of this book will gain a fresh perspective on the relationship development of college students and possible avenues for intervention to help students enhance their relationships skills and prevent development of mental health difficulties.

Download or read book College Adjustment During the Freshman Year written by Kostas Andrea Fanti and published by VDM Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only half of entering college students manage to finish their degree in a 5 year period, and of the remaining half, 37% drop out altogether, suggesting that college students are at risk for failure to graduate on time or graduate at all. Additionally, the freshman year has been found to be critical in reducing attrition rates in subsequent years, and successful adjustment to college during the freshman year can significantly influence the entire undergraduate experience. The current work investigates how the parent-adolescent relationship and other supportive relationships are related to the academic, social, and personal-emotional expectations of adjustment and actual adjustment to college during the freshman year. The findings suggested that supportive relationships with parents may boost college students' adjustment, and this was true even for students who moved away from home. Furthermore, the findings had implications for the students living arrangements, suggesting differences between students who live in the dorms and students who commute to school. The findings of the current work are important for entering college students, their parents and other supportive figures in the students' environment. Moreover, the book provides important information to educators and university officials to ensure students' successful adjustment to college.

Highhouse and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previous research has compared the impacts of college adjustment, belongingness, and academic self-efficacy on first-generation and continuing-generation college students. However, the impacts of these factors on academic success (GPA) and persistence of first-semester, first-generation college students have not been investigated. The primary purpose of this study was to examine college adjustment and belongingness for first-semester, first-generation college students, with a focus on race and gender. This study also examined the impact of academic self-efficacy (i.e., course self-efficacy and social self-efficacy), college adjustment, and belongingness for academic success (GPA) and persistence of these students. The roles of race and gender in relation to the moderators of college adjustment were also explored. Eighty-two students completed measures of college adjustment, belongingness, and academic self-efficacy (i.e., course self-efficacy and social self-efficacy). Participants were recruited via in-class announcements and completed all study measures through an online questionnaire. Results of multiple regression and ANOVAs demonstrated that College Adjustment, Belongingness, and academic self-efficacy (i.e., Course Self-efficacy and Social Self-efficacy), were not statistically significant predictors of Academic Success (GPA) or Persistence in this sample. Results of independent-sample t-tests, however, did reveal a statistically significant difference in the College Adjustment subscale, Institutional Attachment, between males and females. Independent-samples t-tests also revealed a statistically significant difference in first and second semester Academic Success (GPA) for students who Persisted to third semester and those who Did Not. Additional exploratory analysis, chi-square tests, found no significant associations between the impact of Gender, having a Pell Grant, Minority Status, or belonging to an Academic Support Program on Academic Success (GPA) and Persistence. Limitations of the present study and implications for future research along with potential implications of these findings for counselor education, research, and practice were also explored.
