College Selectivity Versus Educational Environment<br />

As shown in Table 2, the multiple correlations (K) for the college<br />

selectivity and educational environment measures in combination (&ode1 1)<br />

ranged from .45 to .66. The highest relationships (R = .60 or greater) were<br />

obtained for the Final Course Grade, CWT 2, and 11th week OTEK performance<br />

criteria, and the lowest relationships for the CWT 1 and CWT 5 criteria.<br />

The two classes of college characteristic predictors accounted for about 20x<br />

to 40% of the variance (R2) in expected performance due to college<br />

attended.<br />
