An individual's theories and beliefs about knowledge and knowing, or personal epistemology, is related to learning and academic strategy selection in complex ways. These beliefs are both generalized and differentiated by discipline (e.g., math, science, humanities) and influence the way in which instructional practices are interpreted by students epistemologically. The purpose of this study was to explore students' perceptions of academic experiences as interpreted through the lenses of their epistemological assumptions during their transition to a new academic culture.

These beliefs are both generalized and differentiated by discipline (e.g., math, science, humanities) and influence the way in which instructional practices are interpreted by students epistemologically.

520 $a Using a qualitative approach, methods included in-depth interviews, document analysis of instructional artifacts and observation field notes. The study revealed levels of sophistication of students' epistemological beliefs, as well as learning strategy selection for academic success across domains. Additionally, in the context of the transition to college academic life close examination of student reflections offered perspectives on the mechanisms that prompt development within dimensions of personal epistemology.
