Psychology students generally dread their undergraduate statistics course. The current study
explored the detrimental external factors that influence students to perform poorly in statistics
courses. In-depth interviews were conducted on six undergraduate psychology students from
International Islamic University Malaysia who failed a statistics course and the data was
analyzed using thematic analysis. Eight factors were obtained (with a total of 19 sub-factors)
and were arranged under the Lecturer, Social Support, Administrative, and Environmental
categories. The findings of the study would provide statistics lecturers with a better
understanding of why many of their students face difficulty in the course. |
