  1. 16. The importance of personality, IQ and learning approaches : predicting academic performance

    Författare :Pia Rosander; Martin Bäckström; Åge Diseth; Högskolan Kristianstad; []
    Nyckelord :SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; personality; IQ; learning approaches; academic performance; high school;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of the present doctoral thesis was to examine to what extent personality traits and approaches to learning contribute to academic performance in upper secondary school (high school), after controlling for the well-known fact that general intelligence accounts for a large part of the variance. The general proposition of the thesis is that personality traits are stable dispositions and therefore predispose an individual to behave or act in a specific manner (Costa & McCrae, 1976). LÄS MER

  2. 17. Composing The Performance : An Exploration Of Musical Composition As A Dramaturgical Strategy In Contemporary Intermedial Theatre
