Abstract<\/p>\n

Background<\/em><\/p>\n

Transition to higher education (HE) confronts undergraduates with a variety of social and academic challenges. Research on how these challenges are dealt with often refers to a Bourdieusian perspective and links successful access to HE to the capital and habitus that students bring with them when adapting to unfamiliar institutional demands.<\/p>\n

Purpose<\/em><\/p>\n

Although some studies regard trust (and perceptions of trustworthiness) as highly relevant for establishing a \u2018fit\u2019 between individual and institutional features, the notion of trust as a part of cultural capital for managing the transition to higher education is seldom considered. Our exploratory study aims to introduce and test out a framework for habitual trust and, thus, offer fresh insight into research on transition to HE.<\/p>\n

Sample<\/em><\/p>\n

In order to investigate the role of trust for trusting practices, 28 undergraduates in two German Higher Education Institutions (HEI) were interviewed.<\/p>\n

Design and Method<\/em><\/p>\n

Data were collected through episodic interviews. The transcriptions of these interviews were subject to typological qualitative content analyses.<\/p>\n

Results<\/em><\/p>\n

The analysis of data identified three different types of students\u2019 trust and trusting levels, which varied in respect of academic or non-academic family background and affected students\u2019 trusting experiences at HEI. The three types of trust and trusting levels were: i) proactive self-reliant trustors, ii) adaptive and aspiring trustors, and iii) resistant and alienated sceptics.<\/p>\n

Conclusions<\/em><\/p>\n

Habitual trust can be considered as an important link between individual backgrounds and performance during the transition to HE. The results are discussed with a view to further research on the practicability of habitual trust as a feature that HEI can or should deal with.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
