Title [sv]
Motivation, uthållighet och prestation bland svenska elever i PISA: Samband mellan subjektiva skattningar, objektiva svarsdata och prestation
Title [en]
Motivation, persistence and performance among students taking the PISA test: Relations between subjective reports, objective behavior and achievement
Abstract [en]
In PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) literacy in reading, mathematics and science among 15-year old students is assessed. In addition to the achievement test, PISA also collects questionnaire data from the students. Also, from 2015, the PISA test is computer-based and students interactions with the test are stored in log-files, bringing novel opportunities to investigate students actual behavior during test-taking. The proposed 3-year project will make use of the extensive PISA databases and aims to take advantage of multiple sources of information: self-report questionnaire data, response behavior data and test scores. Through latent variable modelling, item response modeling, regression analyses and log-file analyses, the project will investigate a) students self-reported motivation (test-specific and domain-specific) and relationships between motivational variables and test performance: b) how students? reported motivation is related to persistence during test-taking according to computer-generated response data, and how this in turn relates to performance. The proposed project will address important and largely unanswered research questions about how student motivation, test-taking behavior and performance in PISA can be understood beyond country averages and league tables. An important feature of the project is also the exploration of the underexplored but promising area of computer-generated response data.
