Abstract
The study compared concerns, anxiety, mindsets, and belonging in introductory statistics among Latine students across three higher education institutions. Students at the Predominantly White Institution voiced more concerns about R-coding and lack of prior knowledge. Students at the Hispanic-Serving Institutions voiced more concerns about math anxiety and social comparison and had more fixed mindsets, yet higher levels of belonging—pointing toward the value of exploring Latine students’ experiences across different contexts and providing tailored interventions.
该研究比较了三所高等教育机构的拉丁裔学生在统计学入门中的担忧、焦虑、心态和归属感。以白人为主的院校的学生对 R 编码和缺乏先验知识表示了更多的担忧。西语裔服务院校的学生对数学焦虑和社会比较表示出更多的担忧,他们有更多固定的思维模式,但归属感水平更高,这说明探索拉丁裔学生在不同环境中的经历并提供有针对性的干预措施很有价值。
