All statistics are weighted by gender and enrollment status (and institution size for comparison groups) Unless otherwise noted, statistical comparisons are two-tailed independent t-tests Items with categorical response sets are left blank
These are the values used to calculate means For the majority of items, these values match the codes in the data file and codebook
Column percentages are weighted by gender and enrollment status (and institution size for comparison groups) Percentages may not sum to 100 due to rounding Counts are unweighted; column percentages cannot be replicated from counts
d
e
f The 95% confidence interval for the population mean is equal to the sample mean plus or minus 1.96 times the standard error of the mean
g A measure of the amount individual scores deviate from the mean of all the scores in the distribution
h Degrees of freedom used to compute the t-tests Values differ from Ns due to weighting and whether equal variances were assumed
Effect size for independent t-tests uses Cohen's d.
Statistics are weighted by gender and enrollment status (and institution size for comparison groups) Categorical items are not listed
h Degrees of freedom used to compute the t-tests Values differ from Ns due to weighting and whether equal variances were assumed
i Statistical comparisons are two-tailed independent t-tests Statistical significance represents the probability that the difference between your students' mean and that of the comparison group is due to chance
