Abstract	This chapter describes how canonical correlation was used in conjunction with an item response theory model to address the relationship between college students' civic engagement involvement and attitudes as undergraduates. The constructs of interest were students' participation in civic, political, and expressive activities, as well as their community service, civic and political self-efficacy attitudes, commitment to civic accountability, and tolerance of diversity.
