Abstract

The purpose of this research was to examine variables that impact academic achievement. Using data from the 2020-2021 Healthy Minds Survey conducted by the University of Michigan, the researchers performed two multivariate logistic regression analyses (weighted N=20,476). Results indicated several connections that impact a college student's experience and academic success. Implications relating to mental health, campus experience, parental education socialization, substance usage, and structural security are examined.
