Abstract

Cultural mismatch theory of inequality and associated research indicates that a mismatch between independent cultural norms of institutions of higher education and students’ interdependent backgrounds account for disparities in academic achievement for students from historically underrepresented groups. Despite growing interest in interventions to reduce cultural mismatch, there was not yet a comprehensive measure of cultural match. We developed and validated the Cultural Match Scale (CMS) composed of 24 Likert-scale items. The CMS measures Navigation of Institutional Culture, Connection to Community, and Connection to Institutional Values. Data from 858 participants were utilized to obtain validity and reliability evidence. Three factors with a general method factor for all negatively worded items showed the best fit. Consistent with the prior findings, relationships with four criterion measures showed medium to large magnitudes of correlations. Reliability was acceptable to excellent levels. The use of the CSM was discussed along with the needs for future research.

高等教育文化匹配量表的开发和初步验证
关于不平等的文化不匹配理论和相关研究表明,高等教育机构独立的文化规范与学生相互依存的背景之间的不匹配,是造成历史上代表性不足群体的学生在学业成绩上存在差距的原因。尽管人们对减少文化不匹配的干预措施越来越感兴趣,但目前还没有一种全面的文化匹配测量方法。我们开发并验证了由 24 个李克特量表项目组成的文化匹配量表(CMS)。该量表测量机构文化导航、与社区的联系以及与机构价值观的联系。我们利用了 858 名参与者的数据,以获得有效性和可靠性证据。结果表明,三个因子的拟合效果最佳,其中一个一般方法因子适用于所有消极措辞的项目。与之前的研究结果一致,与四项标准测量的关系显示出中等至较大的相关性。信度为可接受到优秀水平。会议讨论了 CSM 的使用以及未来研究的需求。
