Attitudes of students are vital in determining the perceived achievements in statistics subject.
Therefore, this study investigates the relationship of attitudes of students towards learning
statistics using several constructs which are affect, cognitive, value, difficulty, interest, effort
and perceived achievement in statistics subject. Structural Equation Modelling – Partial Least
Squares methodology was used to assess the hypothesised model that linked all the constructs
of attitudes of students with the perceived achievement. The questionnaire was adopted from
previous study and distributed to undergraduate students at Universiti Malaysia Pahang. From
the analysis, it reveals that all the relationships in the hypothesised model were significant at
p < 0.05 and this shows that all constructs of attitudes of students play a vital role in learning
statistics. In short, this study reinforces the understanding of students’ attitude and could be a
step forward for the lecturer to arouse the students’ interest in the teaching and learning process
particularly for statistics. |
