Download or read book The Impact of College on Students written by Kenneth A. Feldman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-02-18 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this landmark work, Kenneth Feldman and Theodore Newcomb review and synthesize the findings of more than 1,500 studies conducted over four decades on the subject. Writing in 1991, Ernest Pascarella and Patrick Terenzini maintained that The Impact of College on Students not only provided the first comprehensive conceptual map of generally uncharted terrain, but also generated a number of major hypotheses about how college influences students. They also noted that Feldman and Newcombe helped to stimulate a torrent of studies on the characteristics of collegiate institutions and how students change and benefit during and after their college years from college attendance. The Impact of College on Students is now a standard text in graduate courses as well as a standard and frequently cited reference for scholars, students, and administrators of higher education. Much of what we understand about the developmental influence of college is based on this work.

Download or read book Careers in Theory and Experience written by Warren D. Gribbons and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1983-06-30 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells what happens in terms of career development during the 20 years following the 8th grade. The first 20-year longitudinal study of career development in America in the post-World War II period to have reached publication stage, it is also the only such study that includes women in its sample. The research was designed to test the best theoretical formulations available. Its findings provide clear and convincing tests of exisitng developmental theory, support useful extensions of theory, and stimulate hypotheses for future research. Two important aspects of the research program are the production of a new measurement technique for scaling vocational maturity in adolescents, and refinement of an innovative statistical methodology for career development modeling. The new measurement device, entitled "Readiness for Career Planning," is applicable to both counseling/guidance programs and research programs. The statistical strategy combining multiple discriminant analysis and Markov chain analysis in a coherent modeling procedure is a major innovation in data analysis procedures for research on careers. Beyond these technical contributions, the book is highly readable on a non-technical level. It provides provocative and helpful insights into the experience of developing careers in America to readers in many walks of life. Appended to this study is a NEW READINESS FOR CAREER PLANNING (RCP) INSTRUMENT AND MANUAL, for use by the school counselor and educational psychologist.
