The coefficient of determinant indicates that the four indices of physical learning environment jointly contributed 81.3% of the total variance in the dependent variable, that is, pupils’ performance (Adjusted R2 x 100 = 81.3). This joint contribution of the indices of physical learn ... Continue reading---
