Analyzing the Short-Term Impact of a Brief Web-Based Intervention on First-Year Students' Sense of Belonging at an HBCU: A Quasi-Experimental Study
Innovative Higher Education, v48 n1 p1-13 Feb 2023
Sense of belonging is a basic human need, which has been consistently correlated with positive educational outcomes such as good grades, retention, and satisfaction in college. Using a quasi-experimental research design, we analyzed data from 115 respondents to assess the impact of a short video intervention on first-year students' sense of belonging at an HBCU. Results suggest that the experimental condition was associated with elevated belonging, while the control conditions were not. Implications for future policy and practice are delineated.
