Mayhew, Matthew J.; Bowman, Nicholas A.; Rockenbach, Alyssa Bryant
Journal of Higher Education, v85 n2 p219-245 Mar-Apr 2014
This study examined the perceptions of campus climate among students of diverse worldviews. Results from this study suggest that climate perceptions and experiences were more negative among worldview majority students (e.g., Protestants, Catholics) than among worldview minority students (e.g., Muslims, Jews) and nonreligious students. Theoretical implications are discussed.
