Abstract Details

2011, Specialist in Education, Miami University, School Psychology.
This paper examines the existing literature on school connectedness and establishes the most commonly identified factors, which were then used to analyze the internal reliability of the CASEL Student Needs Assessment. School climate factors and theory are also compared and explored as they relate to the CASEL measure. Internal reliability was measured using Cronbach’s alpha for both the school climate subscales as well as the school connectedness constructs. Correlations between the seven identified school connectedness constructs were also assessed. Finally, a factor analysis was completed on the CASEL measure. No significant differences in reliability were found using either school climate factors or school connectedness constructs. Additionally, the correlation matrix and the factor analysis confirm the notion of one overall construct, as opposed to seven independent constructs. Theoretical implications of this and subsequent research are explored.
