ABSTRACT

It is commonly accepted that college students from poverty have disadvantages contributing to expected likelihood of failure. This four-year longitudinal study of a group of college students from poverty reveals a different picture. Given adequate financial support removing financial worries, these students have done better than their college peers. Academic success is associated with authenticity, a personality characteristic that cuts across all college students. We suggest that bias in education and research has led us to overlook the power of genuine financial support of students from poverty, as well as the strengths they bring with them that “money can’t buy.”

贫困大学生:学业成功与真实性

摘要

人们普遍认为,贫困大学生的劣势会导致预期失败的可能性。这项针对一群贫困大学生的为期四年的纵向研究揭示了不同的情况。鉴于有足够的经济支持消除了经济上的担忧,这些学生比他们的大学同龄人做得更好。学业成功与真实性有关,真实性是贯穿所有大学生的个性特征。我们认为,教育和研究的偏见导致我们忽视了对贫困学生的真正经济支持的力量,以及他们带来的“金钱买不到”的优势。
