A Structural Model of Science Achievement.
Reynolds, Arthur J.; Walberg, Herbert J.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v83 n1 p97-107 Mar 1991
The nine-factor productivity model of science achievement of H. J. Walberg (1981) was tested through structural equation modeling using national longitudinal data on middle-school seventh grade students' science achievement (n=3,116). The better fit provided by a revised model with eight factors is discussed, and implications for educational improvement are reviewed. (SLD)
