How different diversity factors affect the perception of first-year requirements in higher education
(2021)
In the light of growing university entry rates, higher education institutions not only serve larger numbers of students, but also seek to meet first-year students’ ever more diverse needs. Yet to inform universities how to support the transition to higher education, research only offers limited insights. Current studies tend to either focus on the individual factors that affect student success or they highlight students’ social background and their educational biography in order to examine the achievement of selected, non-traditional groups of students. Both lines of research appear to lack integration and often fail to take organisational diversity into account, such as different types of higher education institutions or degree programmes. For a more comprehensive understanding of student diversity, the present study includes individual, social and organisational factors. To gain insights into their role for the transition to higher education, we examine how the different factors affect the students’ perception of the formal and informal requirements of the first year as more or less difficult to cope with. As the perceived requirements result from both the characteristics of the students and the institutional context, they allow to investigate transition at the interface of the micro and the meso level of higher education. Latent profile analyses revealed that there are no profiles with complex patterns of perception of the first-year requirements, but the identified groups rather differ in the overall level of perceived challenges. Moreover, SEM indicates that the differences in the perception largely depend on the individual factors self-efficacy and volition.
Kombination quantitativer und qualitativer Methoden zur Untersuchung der Studieneingangsphase
(2019)
Forschendes Lernen ist dazu geeignet, epistemische Neugier – definiert als Freude an neuen Erkenntnissen - anzuregen und zu befriedigen. Neben der Selbstwirksamkeit zeigt sich die Neugier als relevant für den Studienerfolg. Allerdings ist bisher nicht geklärt, in welcher Beziehung diese beiden Konstrukte zueinanderstehen.

Kombination qualitativer und quantitativer Methoden zur Untersuchung der Studieneinstiegsphase
(2019)
Mit Hilfe der Kombination von qualitativen und quantitativen Verfahren zielen Mixed-Methods Ansätze darauf ab, einen vertieften Einblick in komplexe Gegenstände zu gewinnen. In der Hochschulbildungsforschung finden sie zunehmend Anklang, da sie besonders geeignet erscheinen, das vielschichtige Wirkungsgefüge zu erfassen, das das Lehren und Lernen an Hochschulen auszeichnet. Der Beitrag geht den Potenzialen von Mixed-Methods Ansätzen am Beispiel einer Studie zur Studieneingangsphase nach, die den Wirkungszusammenhang zwischen der Nutzung von Angeboten für den Studieneinstieg und der Entwicklung von Studierfähigkeit untersucht. Der Beitrag veranschaulicht die Integration von Methoden und Ergebnissen, um Chancen und Grenzen von Mixed-Methods Studien für die Hochschulbildungsforschung zu diskutieren.
The methodological discourse of mixed-methods research offers general procedures to combine quantitative and qualitative methods for investigating complex fields of research such as higher education. However, integrating different methods still poses considerable challenges. To move beyond general recommendations for mixed-methods research, this chapter proposes to discuss methodological issues with respect to a particular research domain. Taking current studies on the transition to higher education as an example, the authors first provide an overview of the potentials and limitations of quantitative and qualitative methods in the research domain. Second, they show the need for a conceptual framework grounded in the theory of the research object to guide the integration of different methods and findings. Finally, an example study that investigates transition with regard to the interplay of the individual student and the institutional context serves to illustrate the guiding role of theory. The framework integrates different theoretical perspectives on transition, informs the selection of the research methods, and defines the nexus of the two strands that constitute the mixed-methods design. As the interplay of individual and context is of concern for teaching and learning in general, the example presented may be fruitful for the wider field of higher education research.
