NASPA Journal, v36 n3 p184-97 Spr 1999

Reviews the important literature published since Astin's 1985 work on involvement theory, including his subsequent publications on student involvement in learning, to determine whether student involvement does make a difference to student development and learning. Examines some of the limitations inherent in assessing student development and learning, and sets out several questions that current research leaves open. (Contains 15 references.) (Author/GCP)
