Abstract

Cilj je ovog istraživanja bio ispitati odnose vrste završene srednje škole, roda, upravljanja vremenom i uvjetima učenja, ispitne anksioznosti te vrijednosti zadatka i intrinzične ciljne orijentacije s uspjehom i zadovoljstvom ocjenom na kolegiju iz matematike na prvoj godini studija elektrotehnike i računarstva. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 607 studenata prve godine Fakulteta elektrotehnike i računarstva Sveučilišta u Zagrebu, koji su odslušali kolegij Matematika 1. Sudionici su ispunjavali upitnik sastavljen od upitnika sociodemografskih podataka te četiri podskale upitnika MSQL; Intrinzična ciljna orijentacija, Vrijednost zadatka, Upravljanje vremenom i uvjetima učenja te Ispitna anksioznost. Podaci su analizirani hijerarhijskim regresijskim analizama te je korištenim prediktorima objašnjeno ukupno 24% varijance kriterija ocjene na ispitu iz Matematike 1. Pokazalo se da bolje upravljanje vremenom i uvjetima učenja, završena srednja škola s većim brojem sati matematike godišnje, viša intrinzična ciljna orijentacija te niža ispitna anksioznost predviđaju bolji uspjeh na kolegiju Matematika 1. Za kriterij zadovoljstvo dobivenom ocjenom objašnjeno je 38% varijance, pri čemu se boljom ocjenom na ispitu može objasniti najveći postotak varijance kriterija. Intrinzična ciljna orijentacija i vrijednost zadatka pokazali su se značajnim negativnim prediktorima, kao i ispitna anksioznost, gdje se nižim rezultatima na ovim skalama može predvidjeti više zadovoljstvo ocjenom na ispitu.

Abstract (english)

The aim of this research was to examine the relationship between the type of finished high school, gender, time and study environment, test anxiety, task value and intrinsic goal orientation with achievement in mathematics exam and satisfaction with the grade in the mathematics course in the first year of electrical engineering and computer science studies. The participants were 607 first-year students of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, University of Zagreb, who attended the course Mathematics 1. The participants filled out a questionnaire consisting of a sociodemographic data and four subscales of the MSQL questionnaire: intrinsic goal orientation, task value, time and study environment and test anxiety. The data were analyzed using hierarchical regression analysis, and the used predictors explained a total of 24% of the variance of the Mathematics 1 exam grade. Better time management and efficient study environment, finished secondary school with a greater number of hours of mathematics per year, higher intrinsic goal orientation, and lower test anxiety were positive predictors for the mathematics course success. 38% of the variance in the criterion of grade satisfaction was explained, and the highest percentage of the variance of the criterion can be explained by a higher grade on the exam. Intrinsic goal orientation and task values were significant negative predictors, as well as test anxiety, where lower scores on these scales predicted higher satisfaction with the exam grade.
