翻译后摘要：强大的社区，衡量归属方面，往往会产生积极的社会和教育成果。这种方法虽然有用，但缩小了这一概念的潜在范围，而且不能充分衡量复杂的社区，在这些社区中，学生参与等积极结果可能与社会排斥等消极结果混杂在一起。将社区概念化为相互关系的网络，可以将社区概念分解为社区成员之间的基本结构。然后，研究人员可以使用新的测量方法来检查社区的过程和结果，这些测量方法可以捕捉社区形成的内部动态，这些动态是由潜在的竞争理论机制驱动的：结合和探索。
Abstract:Strong communities, measured in terms of belonging, are often shown to produce positive social and educational outcomes. Although useful, this approach narrows the potential scope of the concept and inadequately measures complex communities where positive outcomes, such as student engagement, can be mixed with negative outcomes, such as social exclusion. Conceptualizing communities as a network of interrelationships allows for breaking the concept of community down into the underlying structures among community members. Researchers can then examine community processes and outcomes using new measurements that capture the internal dynamics of community formation as driven by potentially competing theoretical mechanisms: bonding and exploration.
