Book Student faculty Interactions and College Adjustment as Predictors of Academic Achievement

Download or read book Student faculty Interactions and College Adjustment as Predictors of Academic Achievement written by Leigh Hileman and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Student-faculty interactions and college adjustment were analyzed as predictors of academic achievement. Participants included undergraduate freshmen enrolled in an Introduction to Psychology course (N = 86) from a large university in the southeastern United States. It was hypothesized that student-faculty interactions and college adjustment would predict academic achievement, and that student-faculty interactions would be a greater predictor than college adjustment. A hierarchical multiple regression model was analyzed and the model was not significant as a predictor of academic achievement. Further analysis determined that a significant correlation existed between college adjustment and academic achievement. Together, these findings suggest that student-faculty interactions and college adjustment combined are not predictors of academic achievement. However, college adjustment was a significant contributor to academic achievement within this study.

Book From School to University

Download or read book From School to University written by R.R. Dale and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-08-21 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1998. This is Volume XV of twenty-eight in the Sociology of Education series. This is a study with special reference to university entrance written in 1949 which started as an enquiry into the performance of a group of university scholarship holders in their First-Year examinations. It developed into an examination of the transition from school to university and is concerned primarily with the problems of London and the provincial universities, though there is much that is relevant to the problems of universities elsewhere. The investigation originated in the concern which was felt amongst the staffs of universities about the general standard of student attainment.

Book Predictors of Academic Achievement  Social Adjustment  and Intention to Persist

Download or read book Predictors of Academic Achievement Social Adjustment and Intention to Persist written by Kristi L. Cordell-McNulty and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Persistence of students to graduation from college is a major problem. Most studies of college retention, however, focus on relatively few variables, and questions remain regarding important predictors of retention. In this dissertation Bronfenbrenner and Morris's (1998) bioecological theory was used to create and test a model of predictors of retention from five social contexts (the self-system, family, peers, school, and culture) that have been shown to predict GPA, social adjustment, and intention to persist. The self-system includes personality, identity, perceived academic self-efficacy, achievement goals, and theory of intelligence. The family context includes parental involvement, feelings of relatedness to parents, and parents' support of their children's autonomy. The peer context includes relatedness to off-campus friends, and the school context includes relatedness to instructor and, on-campus friends, sense of belonging to the institution, and participation in extracurricular activities. The cultural context includes gender and ethnicity.

Book Adjustment to University

Download or read book Adjustment to University written by Nadiah Mohamed and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transition to university presents students with considerable academic, social and emotional challenges. This thesis explored adjustment to university life in a UK post-1992 institution. Predictors of adjustment, patterns of adjustment over time and the effects of adjustment on student success were examined, using the Student Adaptation to College Questionnaire (SACQ). A preliminary study indicated that the 'psychological strength' variables demonstrated to be important for adjustment in international research (viz., self-esteem, self-efficacy, locus of control, social support and attachment security) also predicted adjustment in the current setting, and that emotional intelligence (EI) may also have something useful to offer as a predictor. Consequently, a follow-up study was undertaken to explore relations between adjustment to university and four disparate measures of EI. Results indicated that the self-report/trait EI measures (viz., the Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale [SEIS], the Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire - Short Form [TEIQue-SF] and the Emotional Self-Efficacy Scale [ESES]) were more strongly related to university adjustment criteria than the MSCEIT 'ability' measure, and that the TEIQue performed substantially better than the SEIS and ESES in this regard. However, the MSCEIT was superior with respect to the prediction of incremental variance in adjustment criteria over and above personality, IQ and other competing predictors. Longitudinal investigations of the course of adjustment over the first two years of university indicated that whilst levels of overall adjustment, personal-emotional adjustment and institutional attachment were relatively stable over time, academic and social adjustment demonstrated decreasing and increasing trends respectively. Moreover the longitudinal analyses indicated that psychosocial variables measured at the start of university predict not only short-term but also long-run patterns of adjustment; the initial adjustment advantage of those who scored higher on psychosocial variables during the second month of university was maintained over the first two years. Finally, relations between SACQ-measured adjustment in month two of university, and student success (i.e., continued enrolment and academic performance) in Years 1 and 2 were assessed. Associations between adjustment and Year 1 persistence were weak, and no relations were evident between adjustment and Year 2 persistence. Some adjustment facets were weakly predictive of Year 1 and Year 2 academic success.

Book Minority Student Retention

Download or read book Minority Student Retention written by Alan Seidman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-05-23 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Student retention continues to be a vexing problem for all colleges and universities. In spite of the money spent on creating programs and services to help retain students until they achieve their academic and personal goals, and graduate, the figures have not improved over time. This is particularly true for minority students, who have a greater attrition rate than majority students. Demographic information shows that the minority population in the United States is growing at a faster rate than the majority. It is imperative that educational institutions find ways to help improve retention rates for all students but particularly minority students. Retention rates should not differ appreciably among different racial/ethnic groups."The Journal of College Student Retention: Research, Theory and Practice" is the only scholarly, peer-reviewed journal devoted solely to college student retention. It has published many articles on minority student retention, and this topic continues to garner much attention. This book is a compilation of the very best of these articles, selected on the basis of reviews by a cadre of experts in the education field. The articles discuss African American, Latino/Latina, Asian and Asian Pacific, Native American, and biracial students, and institutional commitments to retaining a diverse student population. For those interested in this vital area, the collection will teach and inspire them to achieve greater heights and pay additional attention to retaining minority students in our colleges and universities.
