Abstract
Hispanic students are less likely to persist at community colleges than white students. The study reported in this article suggests that students with appropriate study behaviors are more likely to persist. The study investigated the study behaviors of Spanish-speaking Hispanic students at one Hispanic-serving community college using the Inventario de Comportamiento de Estudio and at two Mexican universities. Community college students' response patterns were more like those of Mexican public university students and unlike Mexican private university students. This suggests that student culture, rather than institutional culture, determines students' study behaviors.
