Previous work on implicit personality theory and the college student culture suggests that thinking about college student types should include academic involvement and social involvement dimensions. Further, positive and negative social, positive academic, and oppositional clusters of types were predicted based on studies of high school crowds.

Also, the results suggest convergence in the cognitive structure underlying perception of college student types across major demographic categories.
