Academic and Social Integration. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, March 2008, Pages: 84
Extensive research is available about both academic and social integration among college students. As college students spend time and become more involved in the campus community, academic and social integration increases, which leads to student retention. There are differences, however, in academic and social integration by race and gender. Additionally, research suggests that college students are spending more time on computers, though women and minority students still lag behind their peers when using a computer. Currently, however, there is no literature that examines the effects that computer use and race and computer use and gender may have on academic and social integration. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between academic and social integration by computer use and race and computer use and gender. A dataset of 2,000 respondents from the College Student Experience Questionnaire (CSEQ) was used in this study. Results indicate that differences for academic and social integration exist by level of computer use.
