School Belonging in Different Cultures: The Effects of Individualism and Power Distance (2017, unknown): “…some studies reveal a beneficial effect of smaller schools (Lee and Loeb, 2000), others suggest benefits from attending a larger school (Rumberger and Thomas, 2000), and still others have found no relation between school size and belongingness (Battistich et al., 1997; Anderman, 2002).”
Effects of Exposure to Part-time Faculty on Community College Transfer (2008, methodology): “Instead, we followed the recommendations of Raudenbush and Bryk (2002) and the example of several scholars (e.g., Hurtado et al. 2008; Rumberger and Thomas 2000; Titus 2004) by examining box plots of estimates of Empirical Bayes (EB) residuals to determine whether the transfer rates varied across…”
Predictors of educational attainment in the Chicago Longitudinal Study. (2008, background): “More recently, researchers have given greater attention to macrosystem factors, such as school organization and neighborhood characteristics (Ensminger, Lamkin, & Jacobson, 1996; Lee & Burkam, 2003; Riehl, 1999; Rumberger & Thomas, 2000).”
The Adult Lives of At-Risk Students: The Roles of Attainment and Engagement in High School. Statistical Analysis Report. NCES 2006-328. (2006, background): “Achievement and graduation rates are consistently lower in urban schools (Braswell et al. 2001; Finn, Gerber, and Boyd-Zaharias 2005; Grigg et al. 2003; Hauser, Simmons, and Pager 2004; Persky, Daane, and Jin 2003; Rumberger and Thomas 2000).”
A Review of Empirical Evidence About School Size Effects: A Policy Perspective (2009, background): “Rumberger and Thomas (2000) authored the only study reviewed reporting a positive linear relationship between high school size and drop-out rates.”
Understanding the Racial Transfer Gap: Modeling Underrepresented Minority and Nonminority Students’ Pathways from Two-to Four-Year Institutions (2014, methodology): “Therefore, following practice by Rumberger and Thomas (2000), we evaluated box plots showing the variation in the average chance of transfer using estimates derived from empirical Bayes residuals.”
School Effects on Psychological Outcomes During Adolescence (2002, methodology): “One recent study using NELS data ( Rumberger & Thomas, 2000 ) examined school effects on dropping out.”
Dropping Out of High School: The Role of School Organization and Structure (2003, methodology): “Rumberger and Thomas (2000) demonstrated that sector, urbanicity, and size all were related to dropping out.”
Differential school effects among low, middle, and high social class composition schools: a multiple group, multilevel latent growth curve analysis (2008, unknown): “School practices and policies, on the other hand, consist of factors that schools have greater control over, and thus are of particular interest to school practitioners and policy-makers (Fitz-Gibbon & Kochan, 2000; Good & Brophy, 1986; Palardy, 2003; Rumberger & Thomas, 2000).”
School Engagement Among Urban Youth of Color (2008, background): “Generally speaking, school engagement can be thought of as an antidote to poor academic motivation or as a critical mediator of academic achievement and school dropout (Alexander, Entwisle, & Horsey, 1997; Newmann, Wehlage, & Lamborn, 1992; Rumberger & Thomas, 2000).”
Understanding college degree completion of students with low socioeconomic status: The Influence of the Institutional Financial Context (2006, methodology): “Following the example of Rumberger and Thomas (2000), the population-average estimates with robust standard errors are utilized.”

Understanding Differences in the Choice of College Attended: The Role of State Public Policies (2004, background): “As a result, the intercept term in equation (1) may be interpreted as the adjusted college enrollment rate, or the estimated rate of enrolling in college for students having the average characteristics for the entire sample (Rumberger, 1995; Rumberger & Thomas, 2000).”
Longitudinal Attendance Patterns: Developing High School Dropouts (2012, methodology): “Building on the prior work conducted by Balfanz, Herzog, and Mac Iver (2007), the clear link between poor attendance and dropping out (Rumberger 2001 ) and the indication that disengagement from school begins early in children's academic careers (Alexander, Entwisle, and Kabbani 2001 ), we chose t”
