What is Missing in Persistence Models? Integrating Basic Needs and Belongingness
Retention models share common elements such as student characteristics, institutional experiences, and academic and social integration. However, few specifically - basic needs (e.g., food, housing, transportation) and - belonging are essential components of student success. Presenters will provide an overview and discuss the impact of basic needs and belonging to persistence, share a theoretical framework for including them within persistence models, and provide recommendations for addressing these issues in student affairs practice.
Learning Outcomes:
- Describe the impact that basic needs and belonging have on college student persistence
- Identify strategies to address basic needs and belonging in student affairs practice
