Payment Methods And Practices Among College Students: A Classroom Discussion Tool
Abstract
Two hundred and three students in four introductory microeconomics classes (two sections in two semesters) participated in a study of the effect of skipped classes on exam performance and the impact of skipped classes in past exam periods on current exam performance. Results showed a negative and significant correlation––one additional class missed was found to lower test scores by approximately 1.92–2.54 points and reduce exam performance by approximately 3.5–6.4%. One additional class missed in the first and second exam periods was found to lower final exam scores by approximately 2.7 and 1.7 points, respectively, and reduce final exam performance by approximately 6.16% and 4.44%, respectively.
