In order to measure stigmatizing beliefs while minimizing the threat of social desirability, this study utilized an experimental design that compared mental health conditions with medical conditions. The Adjusted …

This study adds to the literature by evaluating the effectiveness of a standalone dual credit program designed with Guided Pathways-style support services.
Through quantitative analysis, this study compared two groups of standalone dual credit students. Both groups participated in standalone dual credit programs at the …
