Motivation, College Integration, and Intentions to Persist Among First-Generation College Students: A Latent Class Approach
The current study investigated the relationship between motivation to attend college, college integration, and persistence intentions among first-generation college students (FGCS). Participants consisted of 414 FGCS from two 4-year institutions in the mountain and southwestern regions of the United States. Through latent class analysis, this study 1) examined first-generation college students’ motivation profiles as characterized by intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, 2) described the characteristics of individuals in each motivation profile by examining the differences in personal characteristics across latent classes, and 3) examined the association between the outcome variables (i.e., college integration, commitment, and persistence intentions) and latent class membership. Three distinct profiles of college motivation among FGCS were observed, suggesting heterogeneous motivation orientations exist among the FGCS population. Students in the High Motivation group showed the most desirable outcomes among the three groups. Implications for career development theory, practice, and research are discussed.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Career Development provides the professional, the public, and policymakers with the latest in career development theory, research and practice, focusing on the impact that theory and research have on practice. Among the topics covered are career education, adult career development, career development of special needs populations, career development and the family, and career and leisure. Research reports and discussion of theory are welcome, but practical applications must be presented.
