Multiplicity Matters: The Development of Interest Profiles During Dynamic Institutional Transitions

Students pursue multiple interests within their daily lives. The current study aims to describe the development of interest profiles (the total composition of all interests one pursues) in terms of the amount of interests, their domain divergence and developmental stages. Using Latent Growth Models on interest data of 309 students over the course of three years (10 timepoints), we will specifically explore interest profile development, also in the context of institutional transitions and COVID-19 measures. © ISLS.
