ABSTRACT This paper draws on an analysis of 2600 study abroad alumni responding to a survey that spans more than 25 years. Our inquiry focuses on evaluating how programme length, housing arrangements, number, and type of co-curricular activities impact alumni’s attributions of personal growth and their attitudes towards global engagement and future social relationships. This paper is also informed by a 5-year alumni follow-up study. Our study finds that the type of housing and participation in co-curricular activities have a significant moderating effect on alumni attributions. With rare exception, programme length does not have a significant impact on reported outcome measures. We conclude the paper with a discussion of how these findings can help guide future research and administrative programming.

留学与文化沉浸:校友回顾

摘要 本文分析了 2600 名海外留学校友对一项跨度超过 25 年的调查的回应。我们的调查侧重于评估课程长度、住房安排、数量和课外活动类型如何影响校友对个人成长的归因以及他们对全球参与和未来社会关系的态度。这篇论文还参考了一项为期 5 年的校友后续研究。我们的研究发现,住房类型和参与课外活动对校友归因有显着的调节作用。除了极少数例外,项目长度对报告的结果测量没有显着影响。我们最后讨论了这些发现如何帮助指导未来的研究和行政规划。
