Abstract
The student attitude data for this chapter were collected from Part A of the student surveys conducted each year (see Appendices D, E, and F).

The 16 items comprised two statements relating to each of eight dimensions of attitude identified in the literature. Respondents indicated the extent of their agreement on 5-point Likert scales ranging from Strongly agree to Strongly disagree.
