Predictors of Sense of Belonging Among International Students

Author:

Abstract

The study aims to propose a predictive model of sense of belonging of international students, using self-reported survey data from freshmen students attending a research-intensive land-grant university in the Midwest. Confirmatory factor analyses are employed to examine the fit between the sample data and survey constructs, and then structural equation modeling is used to examine the proposed model. As international student enrollment has increased in the past few years, this study uses Map Works data to explore the experiences of international students at Iowa State.
