Abstract	Dropping out of higher education is a prevalent phenomenon in Germany-about every fourth college student does not graduate-that affects educational returns to a considerable degree. Therefore, dropouts are a topic of major interest in the higher education stage of the NEPS. With the NEPS data, it is possible to study dropouts from higher education with large-scale, nationwide, representative data from a longitudinal perspective. In order to better understand the mechanisms of dropout, the NEPS provides researchers with the opportunity to analyze the role of social and academic integration (Tinto 1975, 1993)-in addition to rational choice-based measures-in the dropout process. Despite the prevalence of the integration concept in the Anglo-Saxon literature, only a few attempts have been undertaken to operationalize and apply social and academic integration to the German context. NEPS Stage 7 tries to close this gap by reassembling and testing several instruments that are well-established in Germany and can be considered to adequately measure social and academic integration. Analyses of factorial and criterion-related validity show that the NEPS provides a parsimonious measure of relevant aspects of students' integration. (Orig.).
