Abstract

This chapter presents and discusses the results of the study. The results are presented in three sections: results of the correlational analysis, results of the regression analysis, and results of the path analysis. In general the results suggest that family background is indirectly linked to GPA by virtue of its direct effect on study behaviors, verbal ability, and nonverbal ability. Similarly, the link between study behaviors and GPA is mediated through verbal ability and nonverbal ability. Family background and study behaviours consistently predicted nonverbal ability, verbal ability, and GPA, even after the effects of the other cognitive variables had been removed.
