| dc.description.abstract | Performance at A'Level was the criterion of achievement used in this study that looked at a sample of 205 Jamaican sixth form students and 75 of their teachers. Among the high levels of performance on field dependence/independence, abstract reasoning, and spatial ability contributed to A'Level success, especially for male students, and for those of either sex pursuing science rather than arts courses. Motivational variables and study habits were more important to performances for the male and science groups than for the influenced student performance | |
