: The transition from pediatric to adult psychiatric care is not well coordinated. Transitional age youths who are going to college for the first time experience a number of concomitant stressors, which make the transition of psychiatric care even more difficult. Given the burden of psychiatric illness in college students and the limited resources available, more investigation into feasible means of coordinating care needs to occur. Particularly as individuals with mental illness are most likely to experience lapses in care during this transition and have worse outcomes, being more likely to drop out of college.

This study is aimed at figuring out the effects of major selecting motivation on dropout, academic achievement, and major satisfactions of college students majoring in foodservice and culinary arts. To accomplish this, an empirical survey was conducted through a structural equation model. These findings showed that students are likely to drop out of college due to a career change or major maladjustment if they decide their major in consideration of college reputation or department recognition rather than their aptitude. Unlike existing studies, this study has practical implications concerning the importance of these factors in that their academic achievement is affected by their relationship and perception of their major satisfactions rather than their major selection motivations.
