Abstract

In the higher educational setting measures have been initiated to aid college students in overcoming various setbacks and hindrances that can limit them from academically performing well. Extant literature pointed out the significant role of resilience in addressing the concerns of the college students, such as drop-out rates, academic failure, high perceived stress, low school engagement, and poor sense of psychological wellness. Different variables emerge after data analysis were helpful in understanding the deviant points or outliers/distinct. With this, the present study aims to determine the outliers’ profile, resiliency component scores, General Weighted Average (GWA) and outliers’ detection criteria and; examining outliers using Stem-and-Leaf plots and Scattered Diagram and explored outliers’ distinct characteristics or emerging themes. The present study assessed 560 students and yielded 15 data outliers/distinct that appeared in Stem-and-Leaf plots and Scattered Diagrams. Eleven (11) outliers/distinct were identified as mild outliers/distinct, and four were extreme outliers/distinct after the observation was conducted.  It is evident that four (4) extreme scores were described with very low academic performance, but the resiliency score fell into average to high resiliency values. The present study is vital in understanding resiliency and academic performance in the present context thus recommends the exploration of mediator variables namely students' innate intelligence and resiliency behaviors are product of extreme experiences that may affect the relationship between resiliency and academic performance.

将异常值作为复原力与学习成绩之间的中介变量进行研究
在高等教育环境中,已经开始采取措施帮助大学生克服各种挫折和障碍,这些挫折和障碍可能会限制他们取得良好的学业成绩。现有文献指出,抗挫折能力在解决大学生关注的问题方面发挥着重要作用,如辍学率、学业失败、高感知压力、低学校参与度和心理健康感差等。数据分析后出现的不同变量有助于理解偏离点或异常值/差异。因此,本研究旨在确定离群值的概况、复原力成分得分、一般加权平均值(GWA)和离群值的检测标准;使用茎叶图和散点图检查离群值,并探索离群值的显著特征或新出现的主题。本研究对 560 名学生进行了评估,在茎叶图和散点图中发现了 15 个数据离群值/异常值。经过观察,11 个离群值/异常值被确定为轻度离群值/异常值,4 个为极端离群值/异常值。 很明显,有四(4)个极端分数被描述为学习成绩很差,但复原力分数属于平均值到高复原力值。本研究对于理解当前背景下的复原力和学习成绩至关重要,因此建议探讨中介变量,即学生的先天智力和复原力行为是极端经历的产物,可能会影响复原力和学习成绩之间的关系。
