| Framing of the Student Attitude Scale about Studying Burden and Its Related IssuesAbstract1 The PurposesOn the basis of historical review to the policy, situation of relieving students' overburden of studying and comment on the current research, and analyzing the existing problems, this dissertation brings forward the two purposes. Firstly, Framing The Student Attitude Scale about Studying Burden (SASSB), exploring the structure of students' attitude to their studying burden and its influencing factors. Secondly, analyzing the influencing factors on students' attitude to learning burden, such as the school type, the grade, the sex and the school achievement, exploring the differences of students' attitude to studying burden and its origins.2 Framing of the Student Attitude Scale about Learning Burden and Its Structure Analysis2.1 Definition of students' attitude to studying burdenAccording to the definition of the studying burden and the concept and dimensions of attitude, we define students' attitude to their studying burden as the students' stable psychological tendency and its behavioral form to the burden relate to their schoolwork. Specifically it includes three dimensions: the cognition, the emotional experience and behavioral tendency to the studying burden.2.2 Writing of the primary scale itemsOn the basis of definition of the students' attitude to studying burden we write many items and select 93 items of them that can stand for the students' attitude to studying burden to compose the primary scale.2.3 Pretest and item analysis170 subjects make of valid sample of the pretest. This study figures out the coefficient of correlation between the scores of the items and the scores of the sub-scales, and taking the 0.001 as the significant level of selecting items, we delete 13 items and compose the new scale with the remnant 80 items.2.4 structure of the students' attitude to studying burden and forming of normal scale24.1 the subjectsThe subjects of this research come from a key middle school.and a non-key middle school of the city and a non-key middle school of the suburb, and all of them come from Grade 1 in junior school to Grade 3 in senior school. 1902 subjects make of valid sample. 2A2 item analysisIn order to inspect the Quality of the items in the bigger sample, This study work out the discrimination and popularity on the test scores of the sample of thel 902. In according to the relating standard delete 11 items and gain 69 valid items. 24.3 factor analysis2.4.3.1 structure of the cognition sub-scaleOn the basis of the subjects' test scores of the cognition sub-scale and the test of the suitability and the necessity of the factor analysis the correlate matrix of 28 items, this study deletes 3 item and undertakes factor analysis with principal component and varimax rotation method. The result shows five communal factors: the cognition of quantity of courses, the cognition to teaching model and examination system, the cognition to the difficulty of courses, the cognition to the listing the order after exam and the cognition to parents' expectation. They can interpret the 46.664% of the variance.2.4.3.2 structure of the emotion sub-scaleOn the basis of the subjects' test scores of the emotion sub-scale and the test of the suitability and the necessity of the factor analysis the correlate matrix of 23 items, this study undertakes factor analysis with principal component and varimax rotation method. The result shows four communal factors: studying interest, studying anxiety, the emotional experience after the policy of relieving study burden and the emotional experience of courses. They can interpret the 50.171% of the variance.2.4.3.3 Factor structure of the behavioral tendency sub-scaleOn the basis of the subjects' test scores of the behavioral tendency sub-scale and the test of the suitability and the necessity of the factor analysis the correlate matrix of 23 items, this study undertakes factor analysis with principal component an... |
