Abstract

This article aims to examine determinants of social integration in the community among college students. Two‐wave panel data from an undergraduate student sample ( N = 310) was used to explore the effects of multiple sets of variables (personal, interpersonal, and situational) on social integration in the community. Structural equation analysis showed that personal (self‐esteem and perceived stress) and situational (undesirable life events) variables made significant contributions to changes to social integration in the community. Implications of these and other findings are discussed. Β© 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Comm Psychol 32: 707–720, 2004.
