Abstract: | This study examined the impact of a set of theoretically-derived predictor variables on the persistence and transfer of Hispanic
community college students. Early models of student persistence have been validated primarily among 4-year college students.
While the constructs have been well-established, the relationships of those relevant factors remain unexamined among community
college transfer students, and specifically, among Hispanic students enrolled in developmental coursework and planning to
transfer from a community college to a 4-year institution. Logistic regression analysis was used to test the hypothesized
conceptual framework on an existing set of quantitative persistence data drawn from a national sample of Hispanic students. |
