Effective Advising: How Academic Advising Influences Student Learning Outcomes in Different Institutional Contexts
Mu, Lanlan; Fosnacht, Kevin
Review of Higher Education, v42 n4 p1283-1307 Sum 2019
Using survey data from 156 bachelor's-granting institutions, this study explored the relationship between academic advising services and seniors' grades and self-perceived gains. We found advising experiences has a positive relationship with students' grades and self-perceived gains. In addition, our results indicate that the institutional advising climate is positively correlated with perceived gains, but not grades. The results also showed that the relationships between advising and students' learning and development varied across institutions. Implications for policy and practice were discussed.
