An Analysis of Mathematics Achievements Based on Student Engagement and Attitude in Asean Countries Compared with TIMSS 2011 and TIMSS 2015

Explanatory models based on TIMSS 1999 and TIMSS 2011 data

The aim of this study is to explore student, classroom and school factors behind mathematics achievement of the Finnish secondary school students. What are the background factors most strongly related to achievement in Finnish educational context, and what are the changes in the explanatory models between TIMSS 1999 and TIMSS 2011? The conceptual framework for this study is based upon the IEA t...

TIMSS 2011 Student and Teacher Predictors for Mathematics Achievement Explored and Identified via Elastic Net

A substantial body of research has been conducted on variables relating to students' mathematics achievement with TIMSS. However, most studies have employed conventional statistical methods, and have focused on selected few indicators instead of utilizing hundreds of variables TIMSS provides. This study aimed to find a prediction model for students' mathematics achievement using as many TIMSS s...

Educational-teaching Practices and Achievement Timss – Mathematics

This paper examines the IEA’s Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) data for Greece and more specifically POP2 (8th grade). The paper focuses on the teacher’s educational-teaching practices in the classrooms and analyses these with factor analysis. We also investigate the relationship between teaching practices and student achievement with regression analysis. Educational / ...

The Effects of Self-perception on Students’ Mathematics and Science Achievement in 38 Countries Based on TIMSS 1999 Data

Earlier studies based on the analyses of data from the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) identified an interesting but conflicting finding for the effects of three self–perception measures on students’ achievement in the two subjects at two different levels: within–country data generally show a positive correlation between the three measures and students’ actual achievem...
