A STRUCTURAL EQUATION MODEL INVESTIGATING THE IMPACT OF TERTIARY STUDENTS’ ATTITUDES TOWARD STATISTICS, PERCEIVED COMPETENCE AT MATHEMATICS, AND ENGAGEMENT ON STATISTICS PERFORMANCE

Research in the field of statistics teaching has gained momentum, with numerous studies reporting that attitudes towards statistics are related to student performancein a statistics course. The aim of this study was to explore the effects of students’attitudes toward statistics, students’ perceived competence at mathematics, and students’ engagement in the learning process on their overall performance in a tertiary statistics course. The Survey of Attitudes Toward Statistics (SATS-28) was administered to 170 tertiary Early Childhood Education students in a large university in Greece. A Structural Equation Model was generated,and a confirmatory factor analysis was performed resulting in a three-component structure being accepted. Path analysis revealed direct links between perceived competence at mathematics and the three attitudes components, as well as a direct effect of perceived competence at mathematics on students’ performance in the statistics course. Engagement in the learning process also had a direct impact on students’ performance. First published June 2020 at Statistics Education Research Journal Archives

The Impact

We applied a linear structural equation model to explore the impact of information disclosure, social responsibility, trust, and attitude on consumers' loyalty to housing agents. Participants were 466 consumers and potential consumers of housing agency industry services, who completed a survey assessing the variables of interest. Results showed that information disclosure had a direct and significant impact on trust, and an indirect impact on trust through the mediator of corporate social responsibility (CSR), and that trust had an indirect and significant impact on loyalty through the mediator of attitude. The structural relationships among information disclosure, CSR, trust, and attitude should be acknowledged when discussing consumers' loyalty to housing agents.

Students Attitudes

We used the Survey of Attitudes Toward Statistics to (1) evaluate using pre-semester data the Students’ Attitudes Toward Statistics Model (SATS-M), and (2) test the effect on attitudes of an introductory statistics course redesigned according to the Guidelines for Assessment and Instruction in Statistics Education (GAISE) by examining the change in attitudes over the semester and, using supplementary data from an annual Student Feedback Survey, testing for a change in overall satisfaction following implementation of the redesigned course. We took an exploratory rather than confirmatory approach in both parts of this study using Bayesian networks and structural equation modelling. These results were triangulated with analysis of focus group discussions and the annual Student Feedback Survey. First published November 2017 at Statistics Education Research Journal Archives
