THE STUDY STRATEGIES OF ACADEMICALLY SUCCESSFUL STUDENTS AT THE COLORADO SCHOOL OF MINES

摘要

A 42-item questionnaire was administered to 285 Colorado School of Mines students in sophomore design. Factor analysis was performed, resulting in a five-factor solution. Factors were then correlated with cumulative grade point average. Four of the five factors were significantly correlated to cumulative grade point average. (Three factors were negatively correlated, one positively correlated to grade point.) Step-wise regression was also performed to see the effect of each factor on cumulative grade point average.
