学生の「学習意欲」や「大学生活の満足度」は,どのような要因が押し上げているのか.想定される様々な要因を探るアンケートを公立S大学の学生に実施し,その結果から因子分析によって「学習意欲」「大学生活の満足度」に影響を与えていると想定される因子を抽出した.そして抽出された因子間の因果関係を共分散構造分析にて分析した結果,「教員とのコミュニケーション」は「学習意欲」を高め,さらに「大学生活の満足度」にも影響を与えていた.また,「友人とのコミュニケーション」は「大学生活の満足度」にあまり影響を与えておらず,「学習意欲」には関連がないことが示唆された.
What factors are responsible for boosting students' interest in study and their satisfaction in their university life? Students at this university were polled on various possible factors. We analyzed and sampled the survey results in order to fully examine any causal relationship between samples, based on structural equation models. It was revealed that communication between teachers and students stimulates students' eagerness to study and influences their satisfaction in university life. It was also suggested that students' relationships with friends neither significantly affects their satisfaction in university life nor is closely linked to their motivation to study. A future task will be to find clues for providing support to activate communication between teachers and students.
