Measuring Dropout Intention in College Students: A Systematic Literature Review

University dropout is a global challenge, but current instruments often omit key factors, limiting understanding. Our study analyzed dropout intention measurement in university students via systematic review. We selected 6 relevant articles from significant databases. Most instruments have 3-5 factors, reliable dimensions, and are available in English. Though they’re mostly based on theoretical models, these seem underrepresented when examining dimensions and items. This highlights the need for better-grounded instruments, especially in Latin America where they’re scarce.
