The challenge of finding noncontingent, universal worth for elite U.S. college students
Most sources from which college students derive their sense of worth are contingent and, therefore, often unstable, especially for students in high-performance educational contexts. Thus, this qualitative study sought to identify the extent to which 142 undergraduate students from eight elite colleges or universities derived their worth from noncontingent, universal sources and the degree to which students had internalized these sources. Only 40 …
American college students’ understandings of the good life
‘What is the good life?’ Few empirical studies explore how American college students answer this important question. In this grounded theory study, we analysed the responses of 276 American college students in two phases. In the first phase, we examined responses from 109 students at 10 different universities. In the second phase, we added interviews with an additional 167 students at one of the universities. Based on our coding, we found student…
Sources of Self-Worth in U.S. College Students
In light of the mental health crisis facing American college students, it has become vital to determine how students derive their self-worth. This endeavor is particularly important because research has found that internal sources of worth correlate with better mental health than self-worth derived from externally contingent sources. Although past work has identified various sources, it did not set forth a comprehensive theory of college student …
Getting Rid of “Church-Related” Colleges and Universities
Faith-based colleges and universities in America have historically been described as “church-related.” Unfortunately, this classification is too one-dimensional, revealing virtually nothing about how faith-based identity influences the mission, rhetoric, curriculum, or policies of institutions. Although scholars have advanced sophisticated typologies of Protestant and Catholic institutions, we propose that we still need a new means of empirical a…
Understanding the Diversity of Catholic Higher Education
Although scholars have often described faith-based universities in America as 'church-related,' we argue this classification tells us virtually nothing about how the Catholic identity influences the mission, rhetoric, curriculum, or policies of Catholic institutions. Although Morey and Piderit (2006, Catholic higher education: A culture in crisis) created a more sophisticated four-part typology of Catholic institutions, we find that students, par…
