Undergraduate Political Attitudes: An Examination of Peer, Faculty, and Social Influences.
Dey, Eric L.
Research in Higher Education, v37 n5 p535-54 Oct 1996

Results indicate that these influences tend to be of equal magnitude and that students tend to change in the direction of institutional norms. (Author/MSE)
