Faktor-Faktor yang Mempengaruhi Prestasi Mahasiswa dengan Menggunakan Metode Analisisi Jalur (Studi Kasus FMIPA USU)

Abstract

ABSTRACT At the college level, assessment of academic achievement expressed (GPA). Performance index is a number that indicates achievement or progress of students in each semester. Path analysis model is used to analyze the pattern of relationships between variables in order to determine the direct and indirect effects between independent variables with the dependent variable. Use of path analysis in this study aims to determine the variables that affect performance and how much influence directly or indirectly. Obtained using path analysis results indicate that the four variables that significantly influence the research achievements include (interest), (learning method), (teaching method) and (motivation). And the model equations are derived from studies using path analysis is 2 1 2 3 1 2 ++= + + 584,0314,0153,0221,0217,0 eYXXXY . Where the four research variables simultaneously influence by 65.8%.
