| Abstract: | The Institutional Integration Scale (IIS) is claimed to measure five facets of college student academic and social integration. A revised two-factor model measuring the same facets but including social and academic integration in faculty and student factors was examined for invariance. Specifically, the invariance of the latent structure of the IIS across gender was investigated through multiple sample confirmatory factor analysis (MCFA). Two independent samples (n1 = 1077, n2 = 1547) of undergraduate students from a large Midwestern United States university made cross-validation of results possible. MCFA results revealed that the factor structure was essentially invariant and results replicated across the second sample. Latent means were not examined due to a lack of invariant intercepts. |
