Interpreting the Mean Comparisons Report
Sample
The Mean Comparisons report is based on information from all randomly selected or censusadministered students for both your institution and your comparison institutions. Targeted
and locally administered oversamples and other non-randomly selected students are not

Statistical Significance
Items with mean differences that are larger than would be expected by chance
alone are noted with one, two, or three asterisks, referring to three significance
levels (p<.05, p< .01, and p<.001). The smaller the significance level, the
smaller the likelihood that the difference is due to chance. Statistical
significance does not guarantee the result is substantive or important. Large
sample sizes (like those produced by NSSE) tend to generate more statistically
significant results even though the magnitude of mean differences may be
inconsequential. Consult effect sizes (see below) to judge the practical
meaning of the results.
The items from the NSSE survey appear in the left column in the same order and wording as
they appear on the instrument. The name of each variable appears in the second column for
easy reference to your data file and the summary statistics at the end of this section. Response
options are also provided to help you interpret the statistics.

Educational Practice” are indicated by the following:

a
All statistics are weighted by gender and enrollment status. Comparison group statistics are also weighted by institutional size.
b
The 95% confidence interval for the population mean is equal to the sample mean plus/minus 1.96 times the standard error of the mean.
c
A measure of the amount individual scores deviate from the mean of all the scores in the distribution.
d
Degrees of freedom used to compute the t-tests. Values differ from the total Ns due to weighting and whether equal variances were assumed.
e
Statistical significance represents the probability that the difference between the mean of your institution and that of the comparison group occurred by chance.
f
Effect size is calculated by subtracting the comparison group mean from the school mean, then dividing the result by the pooled standard deviation.

a
All statistics are weighted by gender and enrollment status. Comparison group statistics are also weighted by institutional size.
The 95% confidence interval for the population mean is equal to the sample mean plus/minus 1.96 times the standard error of the mean.
c
A measure of the amount individual scores deviate from the mean of all the scores in the distribution.
d
Degrees of freedom used to compute the t-tests. Values differ from the total Ns due to weighting and whether equal variances were assumed.
e
Statistical significance represents the probability that the difference between the mean of your institution and that of the comparison group occurred by chance.
f
Effect size is calculated by subtracting the comparison group mean from the school mean, then dividing the result by the pooled standard deviation.

All statistics are weighted by gender and enrollment status. Comparison group statistics are also weighted by institutional size.
The 95% confidence interval for the population mean is equal to the sample mean plus/minus 1.96 times the standard error of the mean.
c
A measure of the amount individual scores deviate from the mean of all the scores in the distribution.
d
Degrees of freedom used to compute the t-tests. Values differ from the total Ns due to weighting and whether equal variances were assumed.
e
Statistical significance represents the probability that the difference between the mean of your institution and that of the comparison group occurred by chance.
f
Effect size is calculated by subtracting the comparison group mean from the school mean, then dividing the result by the pooled standard deviation.

Frequency Distributions
August 2011
Interpreting the Frequency Distributions Report
Variables
The items from the NSSE survey appear in the
left column in the same order and wording as
they appear on the instrument.
Benchmark
Items that comprise the five
“Benchmarks of Effective
Educational Practice” are indicated
by the following:
LAC=Level of Academic Challenge
ACL=Active and Collaborative
Learning
SFI=Student-Faculty Interaction
EEE=Enriching Educational
Experiences
SCE=Supportive Campus
Environment
Variable Names
The name of each variable appears in
the first column for easy reference to
your raw data file and the Mean
Comparisons report.
Sample
The Frequency Distributions report is based on information from all randomly selected or
census-administered students for both your institution and your comparison institutions.
Targeted and locally administered oversamples and other non-randomly selected students are
not included.
NSSE 2011 Engagement Item Frequency Distributions

Count
The Count column
represents the actual
number of students
who responded to the
particular option in
each question. Counts
are unweighted.
Column Percentage (%)
This column presents the weighted percentage of students responding to the
particular option in each question.
Weighting
Weights adjusting for gender and enrollment status (and by institutional size for comparison groups) are applied to the percentage column (%) of this report. Weights are computed
separately for first-year students and seniors. Weighted results present a more accurate representation of your institution and comparison group students. Only the column percents are
weighted. The counts are the actual number of respondents. Because the counts are unweighted and the column percentages are weighted, you will not be able to calculate the
column percent directly from the count numbers. Additional details about weighting can be found on the NSSE Web site. nsse.iub.edu/links/institutional_reporting

Column percentages are weighted by gender and enrollment status (and size for comparisons). Counts are not weighted so one cannot calculate column percentages from counts.
