Abstract

ABSTRACT This study examined student-faculty interactions and university environment as predictors of devaluing academic success and the intention to persist among a sample of Black college students attending historically and/or predominantly White institutions (H/PWIs) and historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs). Results indicated the hypothesized model fit the data reasonably well across schools. However, notable differences were found. The paths from respectful student-faculty interactions and university environment to devaluing academic success were significant for students attending HBCUs but not H/PWIs. Additionally, university environment was a significant mediator of devaluing academic success for HBCUs but not H/PWIs. Findings suggest that the university environment and student-faculty interactions play a more important role in the academic attitudes of Black students attending HBCUs than H/PWIs.

师生互动、大学环境与黑人大学生的学术态度:学校种族构成的作用

摘要:本研究考察了学生与教师的互动和大学环境作为在历史上和/或主要是白人机构(H/ pwi)和历史上黑人学院和大学(HBCUs)的黑人大学生样本中贬低学业成功和坚持意愿的预测因素。结果表明，假设模型与各个学校的数据拟合得相当好。然而，发现了显著的差异。从尊重师生互动和大学环境到贬低学业成功的路径对hbcu学生有显著意义，但对H/ pwi学生没有显著意义。此外，大学环境是HBCUs学业成功贬值的显著中介，而不是H/ pwi。研究结果表明，大学环境和师生互动对HBCUs黑人学生学术态度的影响比H/ pwi更重要。
