Do Principal Preparation Programs Influence Student Achievement Through the Building of Teacher-Team Qualifications by the Principal? An Exploratory Analysis (2011, methodology): “As such, we did not use this classification as a direct measure of institutional quality, though Toutkoushian and Smart (2001) found that the Carnegie classification of an institution tends to have an important influence on student gains in learning and knowledge development, with these gains being…”
The Relationship Between Institutional Mission and Students' Involvement and Educational Outcomes (2003, background): “Moreover, Toutkoushian and Smart (2001) found small, but significant, differences among 4-year institutions.”
Educational expenditures and student engagement: When does money matter? (2006, unknown): “More recent studies have found statistically significant relationships between expenditures and college outcomes (Astin, 1993; Gansemer-Topf & Schuh, 2004; Hayek, 2001; Ryan, 2004b; Smart, Ethington, Riggs, & Thompson, 2002; Toutkoushian & Smart, 2001).”
INSTITUTIONAL STRUCTURES AND STUDENT ENGAGEMENT (2006, methodology): “These are some of the most commonly used variables in the student engagement and development literature (e.g., Hu and Kuh, 2002, 2003a; e.g., Kuh and Hu, 2001; Toutkoushian and Smart, 2001).”
If and When Money Matters: The Relationships Among Educational Expenditures, Student Engagement and Students’ Learning Outcomes (2011, background): “More recent studies have found statistically significant relationships between expenditures and college outcomes, even after controlling for a variety of student and institutional characteristics (Astin 1993; Gansemer-Topf and Schuh 2006; Hayek 2001; Ryan 2004; Smart et al. 2002; Toutkoushian and Sm”
Institutional Selectivity and Good Practices in Undergraduate Education: How Strong is the Link? (2006, unknown): “…selectivity and measures of learning and cognitive development during college (e.g., Anaya, 1996, 1999; Astin, 1968; Flowers, Osterlind, Pascarella, & Pierson, 2001; Hagedorn, Pascarella, Edison, Braxton, Nora, & Terenzini, 1999; Knox, Lindsay, & Kolb, 1992; Opp, 1991; Toutkoushian & Smart, 2001).”

Revisiting the Efficacy of Postsecondary Remediation: The Moderating Effects of Depth/Breadth of Deficiency (2009, unknown): “…Stratton, O’Toole, & Wetzel, 2007; Szafran, 2001), employment intensity (American Council on Education, 2003; Carter, 1999; Hoyt, 1999; Titus, 2004; Toutkoushian & Smart, 2001), parenting status (e.g., Adelman, 1999; DesJardins, McCall, Ahlburg, & Moye, 2002), and first-generation status…”
Does Mathematics Remediation Work?: A Comparative Analysis of Academic Attainment among Community College Students (2008, result): “Employment intensity has been found to be moderately negatively correlated with degree expectations, persistence, and other desirable outcomes (American Council on Education 2003; Carter 1999; Hoyt 1999; Toutkoushian and Smart 2001), although this finding is not entirely consistent across studies (T”
Cooling Out in the Community College: What is the Effect of Academic Advising on Students’ Chances of Success? (2008, result): “Employment intensity has been found to be moderately negatively correlated with degree expectations, persistence, and other desirable outcomes (American Council on Education 2003; Carter 1999; Hoyt 1999; Toutkoushian and Smart 2001 ), although this finding is not entirely consistent across studies ”
