CAUSAL MODEL OF PHYSICS ACHIEVEMENT OF MATHAYOMSUKSA 4 STUDENTS IN THE SECONDARY EDUCATIONAL SERVICE AREA OFFICE 18
Main Article Content
Abstract
The purposes of this research were to study the causal model of physics achievement and to validate the model of factors influencing physics achievement of Mathayomsuksa 4 students in the secondary educational service area office 18 to empirical data. The findings of this study were as follows:
1. The study of factors and construct a hypothesis model has 8 latent variables: prior knowledge, home environment, motivative achievement, physics attitude, intelligence quotient, emotional quotient, self-concept and time spent in education increases.
2. The detect and modify the model, canceled physics attitude latent variables from the model.
3. Results for detect and modify the model to be consistent with empirical data was were as follows: the model consisting of 7 latent variables: prior knowledge, home environment, motivative achievement, intelligence quotient, emotional quotient, self-concept and time spent in education increases. The model was fit to the empirical data. All variables in model explain the variance of physics achievement at 72 percentage. The intelligence quotient and time spent in education increases were directly influence physics achievement with statistical significance of .05. The home environment, self-concept, motivative achievement and emotional intelligence were indirectly influence physics achievement with statistical significance of .05. The prior knowledge was influence both directly and indirectly to physics achievement with statistical significance of .05.
