| Abstract | The visibility of the gay student population on university campuses has increased substantially over the past 2 decades. Despite this, the sources of impact on their identity development during college have remained largely a mystery. Fifty-nine self-identified gay male undergraduate and graduate students, ages 18-30, at public and private universities nationwide participated in a mixed-methods, two-phase study. In the first phase students utilized a critical incident format to describe experiences that they believed to have had the greatest impact on their identity development during their undergraduate years in college. In the second phase study the participants assigned similarity ratings to the 14 identified categories of impact. Multidimensional scaling and hierarchical cluster analysis were then used to analyze these data. This analysis resulted in the creation of a concept map that represented in pictorial form the ways in which these gay students had organized these categories of experiences. Implications of the research for higher education practitioners and suggestions for future research are presented. |
