Abstract
Environmental Assessment Technique (EAT) measures were computed for 76 colleges and universities from published data about size, intelligence level, and major fields of study of students at each institution, and validation data were obtained from seniors. 18 items of a questionnaire completed by the latter described their college environments and 21 items described the perceived "effects" of 4 college years. Mean responses to 14 of the 18 college environment items were significantly related to EAT variables in the predicted direction; 15 of 21 perceived effects of college were significantly related to at least one EAT variable. Student intelligence accounted for a larger proportion of variance in the validation items than any other EAT variable.
