Each scholar has used critical quantitative approaches to examine access and/or success in the higher education arena. Their scholarship pushes the boundaries of what we know by questioning mainstream notions of higher education through the examination of policies the re-framing of theories and measures the reexamination of traditional questions for nontraditional populations.The work is divergent, but the commonality of the presentations lies in each scholar's critical approach to conventionNew directions for institutional research ;Number 158.Universities and collegesResearchQuantitative researchElectronic books.Universities and collegesResearch.Quantitative research.378.0072Stage Frances K.Wells Ryan S.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910464613303321New scholarship in critical quantitative research1899358UNINA
