Using the Sense of Social Fit (SSF) scale, a 17-itemsurvey on a 7-point Likert-type scale, this study assessed social and academic fit, supplementedwith additional questions exploring interactions with lecturers and faculty. The SSF capturesdimensions such as social match, social acceptance, and identification with the university, whileadded items evaluate the quality of relationships with faculty members using three (3) open-endeditems.
