Reliability and Discriminant Validity of Institutional Integration Scales for Disadvantaged College Students.
Fox, Richard N.
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v44 n4 p1051-57 Win 1984
Pascarella and Terenzini developed five factorially derived institutional integration scales to operationalize Tinto's conceptual model of college student withdrawal. Some psychometric characteristics of these scales were estimated for disadvantaged students at an urban commuter college. The scales showed improved characteristics after item revision and retesting for reading comprehension problems. (Author/BS)
