Interpreting the Mean Comparisons Report
Sample
Statistical Significance
The Mean Comparisons report is based on information from all randomly selected students
for both your institution and your comparison institutions. Targeted and locally administered
oversamples and other non-randomly selected students are not included in this report.
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.
Variables
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.
Benchmark
Items that make up the five “Benchmarks of Effective
Educational Practice” are indicated by the following:
LAC=Level of Academic

ACL=Active and
Collaborative Learning
SFI=Student-Faculty

Effect Size
Effect size indicates the
“practical significance” of
the mean difference. It is
calculated by dividing the
mean difference by
y the
pooled standard deviation.
In practice, an effect size of
.2 is often considered small,
.5 moderate, and .8 large. A
positive sign indicates that
your institution's mean was
greater, thus showing an
affirmative result for your
institution. A negative sign
indicates the institution lags
behind the comparison
group, suggesting that the
student behavior or
institutional practice represented by the item may warrant attention. An exception to this
interpretation is the “coming to class unprepared” item (item 1f.) where a negative sign is
preferred (i.e., meaning fewer students reporting coming to class unprepared).
Class
Results are reported separately for first-year students (FY) and seniors (SR). Institution-reported class ranks are used.

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 the equal variances assumption.
e
Statistical significance represents the probability that the difference between the mean of your institution and that of the comparison group occurred by chance.

Frequency Distributions
August 2010
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
EEE=Enriching
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
students (including those from census administrations) for both your institution and your
comparison institutions. Targeted and locally administered oversamples and other nonrandomly selected students are not included in this report.
Class
Frequency
distributions are
reported separately for
first-year students and
seniors. Institutionreported class ranks
are used.

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
