Bray, Nathaniel J.; Braxton, John M.; Sullivan, Anna Shaw
Journal of College Student Development, v40 n6 p645-57 Nov-Dec 1999
Study elaborates on Tinto's (1975) theory of student departure by focusing on the concept of social integration. Examining freshmen at a Research I institution using three quantitative instruments, study finds that how students deal with stress impacts their level of social integration, institutional commitment, and intent to reenroll.
