Given that dropout rates and their social repercussions are causing great concern worldwide, researchers have been examining this issue to establish models to predict early dropout and to guide actions to support students who are at risk of dropping out. In this paper, we present a study we carried out at the University of Granada in which the risk of first-year students dropping out was analyzed by administering the College Persistence Questionnaire (CPQ v2) to 701 students who began their studies in the 2018/19 academic year. The data pertained to persisting at the institution one year later. The results indicated significant differences within the dimensions of academic and social integration, degree commitment, collegiate stress, academic advising and motivation, scholastic conscientiousness, institutional commitment, financial strain, and academic efficacy. These results align with a wide range of national and international studies.}, organization = {Scholarship for the training of university teachers through the Doctoral Thesis - Analisis del abandono de los estudios en la Universidad de Granada}, organization = {El caso de la Facultad de Ciencias de la Educacion}, publisher = {Taylor & Francis}, keywords = {Higher education}, keywords = {Student retention}, keywords = {Students dropout}, title = {Prediction of early dropout in higher education using the SCPQ}, doi = {10.1080/23311908.2022.2123588}, author = {Lizarte Simón, Emilio Jesús and Gijón Puerta, José}, }
