Findings confirmed the psychosociocultural framework as integrated through the Undergraduate Mentoring Model. Building on the tenet that “mentoring matters,” the current study was among the first to assess mentoring by mentor type (i.e., peer, staff, and faculty). Using a multistep content analysis, five metathemes emerged: 1) I have a someone who gets it … gets me, 2) imagining possibilities, 3) this is how you work the system, 4) I have someone I can relate with and look up to, and 5) I have someone who believes in me, encourages me, and motivates me to not give up. The findings underscored the importance of multiple mentors throughout Latinx students’ educational journeys and revealed that effective mentoring was developmental, relationally-based, culturally-centered, and interpersonally--specific.","PeriodicalId":47066,"journal":{"name":"Journal of College Student Retention-Research Theory & Practice","volume":"233 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135307294","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Austrian academic system relies on “student activity” for university funding, defined as accumulating 16+ ECTS credits per study year. This study proposes a combined method of machine learning and ARIMA models, predicting the number of studies eligible for funding in the next study year. Data from the University of Graz between 2013/14 and 2020/21 was used for machine learning, and data from 2011/12 to 2020/21 was used as a base for the ARIMA models. Repeated predictions for the outcome years 2018/19 to 2021/22 yielded values of accuracy at .82, precision at .76, and recall at .73. The results showed deviations between <1% and 7% from the official values. Differences may be explained by the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic. This study offers a new approach to gaining information about future successful students, which is valuable for the implementation of preventive support structures.","PeriodicalId":47066,"journal":{"name":"Journal of College Student Retention-Research Theory & Practice","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134970230","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among the multifaceted causes for this disparity, many FGCS possess limited social and cultural capital in academia, resulting in lower rates of help-seeking and resource utilization. In this study, we conducted an in-depth qualitative investigation to better understand FGCS's help-seeking attitudes, decisions, and behaviors. Twenty-five first-year FGCS at a 4-year, regional, public university participated in individual interviews. A faculty–student team analyzed interview data using reflective thematic analysis. Our findings demonstrate that FGCS were highly strategic about help-seeking, weighing potential costs and benefits. Though they valued self-sufficiency, FGCS sought support when they identified tangible problems and solutions, when potential providers were accessible and had clearly designated roles, and when helpers conveyed personal interest, empathy, and nonjudgment. These results support several recommendations for policy and practice, including critical consciousness, peer mentoring, and difference-education interventions.","PeriodicalId":47066,"journal":{"name":"Journal of College Student Retention-Research Theory & Practice","volume":"63 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85277646","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, student resilience has yet to be adequately explored, particularly among the increasing online student population, as a possible mechanism to reduce attrition rates. In the present study, online, undergraduate students were asked two qualitative, open-ended questions to elicit their subjective understanding of resilience in the context of their university study. Thematic analysis identified that health-, work-, and relationship-related experiences were the top-three stressful experiences described by students. Academic management, self-care, and positive psychology techniques were the most common student coping strategies. The findings suggest a highly individualized conceptualization of what might predict retention or attrition. Findings are discussed in the context of assisting online, undergraduate students to utilize their resilience to persist in university.","PeriodicalId":47066,"journal":{"name":"Journal of College Student Retention-Research Theory & Practice","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82123426","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper showcases an approach for a virtual undergraduate research onboarding program to orient engineering students to the National Science Foundation (NSF) Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU). A participatory action research strategy, photovoice, was used to identify factors influencing student motivation, satisfaction, and success for a virtual research onboarding program. Although photovoice has been used as an assessment tool in various educational settings, to our knowledge, it has not been used to evaluate virtual undergraduate research onboarding programs to promote retention of historically underrepresented students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). The exploratory findings of this study reinforce best practices for formal face-to-face onboarding programs, offer new insights for informal virtual programs, and provide an approach to program assessment with recommendations for developing impactful onboarding experiences for student enrollment, persistence, and completion.","PeriodicalId":47066,"journal":{"name":"Journal of College Student Retention-Research Theory & Practice","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74532429","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To provide new insight into this problem, we drew upon Wang’s concepts of agentic momentum and agency by default to understand how pre- and post-transfer students exhibit agency along their vertical transfer journeys as well as how their experiences within the sending and receiving institutional environments may shape how they exhibit agency. Using focus group and interview data, we identified four forms of agency exhibited as well as patterns in how availability and utility of institutional agents and resources shaped their agency. Our findings highlight how institutions can amplify students’ agentic momentum so they don’t have to pursue their transfer journeys on their own.","PeriodicalId":47066,"journal":{"name":"Journal of College Student Retention-Research Theory & Practice","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72541703","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current study used a person-centered approach to investigate subgroups of FGCSs that have had similar experiences of social, financial, academic, and cultural barriers in their college lives. A total of 382 undergraduate students in the U.S. participated in the study. A latent profile analysis revealed there may be two particular profiles for FGCSs including these four barriers. FGCSs in Profile 2 reported more social, financial, academic, and cultural barriers. In addition, these students also reported lower levels of self-esteem and higher levels of stress, anxiety, depression, and drop-out intention than those in Profile 1. Students’ gender, their parent's marital status, and the estimated debt after graduation significantly predicted profile membership.
