Interpreting the Frequency Distributions Report
Sample
The Frequency Distributions report is based on information from all randomly selected students for
both your institution and your comparison institutions. Targeted oversamples and other nonrandomly selected students are not included in this 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.
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.
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
Response Options
Response options listed just as
they appear on the instrument.
Weighting
Weights adjusting for gender, enrollment status, and institutional size are applied to
the percentage column (%) of this report. Weights are computed separately for firstyear 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. For more
information about weighting, please visit the NSSE Web site at
www.nsse.iub.edu/2009_Institutional_Report/NSSE_2009_Weighting.cfm.
Class
Frequency distributions are reported separately for first-year students and seniors.
Institution-reported 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 represents the
weighted percentage of
students responding to the
particular option in each
question.
