Nuova numerazione: 80528 Collocazione: UPS BIBL CENTR 39-C-2021 Autore: MEYER, J. Titolo: The influence of gender composition in a field of study on students' drop‐out of higher education.Parte componente di periodico Descrizione fisica: pp. 443-456. Nota generale: Estratto da: European Journal of Education 2019, 54, 3. Riassunto: Combining Tinto's classical model of student drop‐out with Kanter's assessment of minorities, this article examines the influence of gender composition in a field of study on drop‐out from higher education. Our empirical analysis is based on a sample of students who left German higher education in 2014. Our results confirm previous findings that women in gender‐atypical subjects show a higher drop‐out risk than their male fellow students. We assess several mechanisms which could contribute to explain this effect. Contrary to our expectations, social integration, in the sense of contact with lecturers, seems to be a protective factor for women and men in gender‐atypical subjects. For women in gender‐atypical fields of study, contact with peers is an additional protective factor against drop‐out. The most important mechanism to explain higher education drop‐out is women's more negative self‐assessment of their suitability for male‐dominated subjects. Tipo di documento: RICERCA.
