This model allows researchers to account more precisely for the separate elements of the symbiotic relationship between the traits, attitudes, and interests that can shape the individual student’s involvement or engagement in their own educational endeavor and the institution’s array of curricular offerings, co-curricular programs, and informal experiences that can both affect the individual student’s likelihood of engagement as well as shape the broader institutional context. Equally important, this model is particularly critical for appropriately analyzing multi-institutional data for individual level effects (p. 56).
