Keyser, Robert S.
Research in Higher Education Journal, v37 Nov 2019
A correlation analysis of absenteeism and course grades was conducted for a third-year industrial engineering course. Thirty-nine students in the class were informed that attendance would be taken for purposes of this study but that attendance records would not affect their course grade. A negative correlation was found between students' absenteeism and course grades.
