TL;DR: In this paper, a group mentoring program has been evaluated using a quasi-experimental research design and the results indicated that the program was effective in one domain of professionalism, the main outcome variable; and that career development outcomes were significantly higher in participants.
Abstract: This evaluative research represents the first report in the literature to date in which a group mentoring programme has been evaluated using a quasi‐experimental research design Results indicated that the programme was effective in one domain of professionalism, the main outcome variable; and that career‐development outcomes were significantly higher in programme participants In addition to the previously established functions of mentoring (career and psychosocial development), the research suggests that the conceptual basis of mentoring should be expanded to include the function of professionalism This has implications for both the practical aspects of mentoring programme development and for future evaluative research Data were collected by means of pre‐ and post‐test questionnaires and analysed by multiple regression analysis

TL;DR: This paper examines the research habits and behaviors of today's college students, finding that for academic research, traditional rules don't apply, and strategies for conducting research are as diverse as the students themselves.
Abstract: This paper examines the research habits and behaviors of today's college students. With each technological evo- lution, students develop increasingly efficient strategies, becoming experts in time management for personal and academic purposes. With demands for their time that include school assignments, social media and 'me time', today's students are reject- ing previously-held beliefs about how to conduct research and forging their own unique path towards scholarship. Starting with uncovering what one student called "the Google and Wikipedia cat and mouse game", a team of EBSCO researchers discovered that for academic research, traditional rules don't apply, and strategies for conducting research are as diverse as the students themselves.
