FONSECA, Gonzalo e GARCIA, Fernando. Permanence and dropout rates among university students: An organizational theory analysis. Rev. educ. sup [online]. 2016, vol.45, n.179, pp.25-39. ISSN 0185-2760. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.resu.2016.06.004.
Using an organizational perspective, the following article analyzes four mainstream theoretical models regarding permanence and dropout rates among university students. The analysis was based on a review of documents from primary sources, institutional databases and Google Scholar. In conducting the analysis, the documents were divided into three categories: explanatory theories regarding permanence and dropout rates among university students (1975-1991), contemporary research on the topic (2005-2015), and studies of the impact of institutional factors on students (2004-2011). The analysis revealed an insufficient inclusion of pedagogical variables and a limited number of mixed research methods employed in analyzing a phenomenon as complex as permanence and dropout rates among university students.
