Using the Wabash National Study on Liberal Arts Education and a latent class analysis of 28 outside-the-classroom activities and behaviors, we developed a typology of outside-the-classroom student engagement during the first year of college. We find ten classes of student involvement: academic artist, party athlete, serious athlete, conventional non-worker, disengaged, maximizer, moderate worker, detached partier, involved partier, and religious. Next, we examine the relationship between latent classes and students’ characteristics through a multinomial logistic regression analysis. Students reporting as first-generation or racially minoritized are overrepresented in the disengaged and involved partier classes. We found an overrepresentation of White students across all party classes. Students reporting as female were likelier to be members of the religious, moderate worker, and disengaged classes and not to be members of the party classes. Federal grant recipients were likelier to be in the academic artist and moderate worker classes. We discuss other sociocultural, economic, and academic relationships in the paper. Next, we explore the relationship of latent class to academic and developmental outcomes. We find academic artists as the only class with a significant positive relationship across the seven dependent measures. Involved partier, moderate worker, and religious classes have positive relationships with at least five dependent measures. The detached partier and party athlete classes have the lowest first-year GPAs of all latent classes. Finally, we discuss the relationships of latent classes, related institutional policy implications, and directions for future research.

利用 Wabash 国家文科教育研究和对 28 项课外活动和行为的潜在类别分析，我们开发了大学一年级学生课外参与的类型学。我们发现了十类学生参与：学术艺术家、派对运动员、认真的运动员、传统的非工人、脱离、最大化、温和的工人、分离的派对者、参与的派对者和宗教。接下来，我们通过多项逻辑回归分析检验潜在类别与学生特征之间的关系。报告为第一代或少数种族的学生在脱离和参与的党派班级中所占比例过高。我们发现所有政党班级中白人学生的比例过高。报告为女性的学生更有可能是宗教班、温和派工人班和游离班的成员，而不是党班的成员。联邦资助的获得者更有可能属于学术艺术家和中产阶级。我们在论文中讨论了其他社会文化、经济和学术关系。接下来，我们探讨潜在类别与学业和发展成果的关系。我们发现学术艺术家是唯一在七个相关指标中具有显着正相关关系的类别。参与党派、温和工人和宗教阶层与至少五项相关措施有正相关关系。分离的党员和党员运动员班级的第一年 GPA 是所有潜在班级中最低的。最后，我们讨论潜在类的关系，
