The present study examined the relationships among students' participation in Residential College (RC) activities, their sense of belonging, academic engagement, and academic achievement. Two hundred and forty-six undergraduate students from a public university in Macau participated in this study. Methods: A set of survey questions were responded by each participant via an online link. Participation in RC activities cultivated students' sense of belonging toward RC which in turn contributed to their sense of belonging toward the university. Students' academic engagement mediated the relationship between sense of belonging toward UM and academic achievement. These findings confirmed previous studies demonstrating the important role of RC participation in student learning and development, and shed lights on the optimization of RC system in the university as well as student development in higher education.
本研究考察了学生参与住宿学院（RC）活动、归属感、学术投入和学业成绩之间的关系。来自澳门一所公立大学的 246 名本科生参与了这项研究。方法：每位参与者通过在线链接回答了一组调查问卷。参与 RC 活动培养了学生对 RC 的归属感，进而培养了他们对大学的归属感。学生的学术投入中介了 UM 归属感与学业成绩之间的关系。这些发现证实了之前的研究，即 RC 参与对学生学习和发展的重要作用，并为大学优化 RC 系统以及高等教育中学生的发展提供了启示。
