A Study on the Validation of a Developmental Model for Social Integration abilities Among Needy Students in Guangxi's Higher Vocational Colleges

บทคัดย่อ

This study focuses on the specific context of higher vocational colleges in Guangxi, employing empirical research to validate the effectiveness and feasibility of a social integration ability development model for needy students within these colleges. The sample comprised 381 needy students in 2023 across four higher vocational colleges in Guangxi (Group E) and three experts in educational research and vocational education management (Group F). Data analysis integrated descriptive and inferential statistical methods: Frequencies and percentages were employed to describe students' demographic characteristics. Data reliability and validity were assessed through Cronbach's α coefficient, KMO test, and Bartlett's sphericity test. Paired-sample t-tests analysed pre- and post-intervention ability differences. Pearson correlation analysis explored associations between programme participation, ability enhancement, and ability dimensions. Concurrently, expert evaluations were conducted using the Quality Index of Content (QIC) and Key Success Factors (KSF) assessment methodologies. Results indicate that following participation in the model, Group E students demonstrated significant improvements across seven abilities including economic integration and interpersonal interaction (p < 0.001). The most pronounced enhancement was observed in economic integration ability (mean score rising from 3.08 to 3.61). Participation frequency and duration showed a significant positive correlation with ability enhancement (e.g., participation frequency and economic integration ability: r=0.37***). Strong synergistic effects existed across the seven ability dimensions (e.g., psychological adaptation ability and self-identity ability: r=0.90***). Panel F experts achieved 100% consensus on all 14 intervention measures within the model, with all six key success factors scoring >4.4 and all seven ability dimensions scoring >4.5. In summary, this model effectively promotes the development of social integration abilities among needy students. Its intervention measures align with educational management practice requirements, providing empirical evidence for optimising and scaling up subsequent related intervention practices.
