Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine the degree of social support within different living groups. It also determined if there were a combination of variables that contribute to social support. The independent variables included interpersonal orientation, sense of identity, adjustment to college, grade point average, gender of subject, and participation in extracurricular activities. The sample consisted of freshmen who lived in coeducational halls, single sex halls and in off-campus housing. These subjects completed the inventory of Social Support Behavior, the Erwin Identity Scale, the College Freshmen Adjustment Scale and the Interpersonal Orientation Scale. Of the 515 surveys distributed, 305 (50%) were returned. One-way analysis of variance compared the levels of social support in the three different living groups. Correlation coefficients were used to determine if significant relationships existed between social support and the independent variables. Multiple regression was used to determine which variables were the best predictors of social support. Results indicated a significant difference in the level of social support experienced by the living groups. Significant relationships existed between social support and the variables of interpersonal orientation and adjustment to college. The regression equation indicated that these two variables were also the best predictors of social support. A negative correlation existed between social support and grade point average. Women in single sex residence halls experienced the greatest degree of social support. Interpersonal orientation and adjustment to college were found to be key variables that influence the level of social support within a residence hall setting. The inverse relationship between grades and social support suggested the importance of peer relationships for the student experiencing academic difficulty.

Download or read book First year Students Expectations of and Satisfaction with Residence Hall Housing written by Thomas E. Burkhardt and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigated if differences existed in students' expectations and satisfaction with first-year on-campus housing by their academic areas of study. Statistically significant differences existed between Social Science majors and Engineering majors relative to expectations regarding their residence halls. Additionally, statistically significant differences existed between the level of expectations for women and men, with women having higher expectations regarding the essential features for their housing facilities. No statistically significant differences emerged between the mean scores in students' satisfaction by academic area, but a multiple regression analysis found that majoring in the Liberal Arts was a statistically significant predictor of having higher levels of satisfaction with residence housing. While only a few differences existed in students' levels of satisfaction and their expectations based on their academic major, the physical facility or building that students lived in was a statistically significant predictor of students' expectations for and satisfaction with the residence halls in which they were housed. These results show that in addition to new construction and renovation of existing facilities, schools need to maintain the quality of their current supply of housing due to the connection between satisfaction with facilities and student academic success. Additionally, well-maintained facilities keep high education institutions competitive in terms of recruiting students. Finally, as demographics change for incoming first-year students, it is crucial to find ways to support academic achievement and success. The engagement and development students receive in on-campus housing is one way that institutions can promote student retention and educational attainment.

Download or read book Interpersonal Relationships in Education From Theory to Practice written by David Zandvliet and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-08-07 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together recent research on interpersonal relationships in education from a variety of perspectives including research from Europe, North America and Australia. The work clearly demonstrates that positive teacher-student relationships can contribute to student learning in classrooms of various types. Productive learning environments are characterized by supportive and warm interactions throughout the class: teacher-student and student-student. Similarly, at the school level, teacher learning thrives when there are positive and mentoring interrelationships among professional colleagues. Work on this book began with a series of formative presentations at the second International Conference on Interpersonal Relationships in Education (ICIRE 2012) held in Vancouver, Canada, an event that included among others, keynote addresses by David Berliner, Andrew Martin and Mieke Brekelmans. Further collaboration and peer review by the editorial team resulted in the collection of original research that this book comprises. The volume (while eclectic) demonstrates how constructive learning environment relationships can be developed and sustained in a variety of settings. Chapter contributions come from a range of fields including educational and social psychology, teacher and school effectiveness research, communication and language studies, and a variety of related fields. Together, they cover the important influence of the relationships of teachers with individual students, relationships among peers, and the relationships between teachers and their professional colleagues.
