Persistence, retention and completion of BS agriculture students in the University of the Philippines
Abstract
© Universiti Putra Malaysia Press. The study used correlational research design to identify factors that explained persistence and retention of BS Agriculture students in the University of the Philippines. The findings reveal a significant relationship between persistence and retention. The results of ordinal logistic regression prove that student satisfaction increases student retention. The Nagelkerke’s pseudo R2 value indicates that classroom-related factors explain a large proportion of variation in the student persistence. As persistence goes hand in hand with retention, higher agricultural education can make use of these influential factors by providing the best educational services and learning experiences to students who found the right choice in agriculture.
