Abstract

The study investigated test taker characteristics and ICT variables as predictors of academic achievement in computer-based test. To direct the study, five research questions and five null hypotheses were developed. The study used a multiple prediction design within a correlational research design. All 1450 students in year four at the University of Port Harcourt’s Faculty of Education made up the study’s population. The sample size of 144 students was determined using a stratified sampling technique based on gender. Two instruments Student CBT Grade Sheet and the Computer attitude, Familiarly Accessibility, Availability and Self-efficacy Questionnaire were used for the study. The internal consistency method of Cronbach alpha was used to estimate the instruments’ reliability and construct validity. The subsets of the questionnaire had Cronbach alpha coefficients of .637, .634, .611, .634, and .623, while the instrument as a whole had a Cronbach alpha reliability of .635. Beta values, simple, multiple regressions, ANOVA and t-test associated with simple and multiple regression were used to analyze data obtained. The result revealed that test taker characteristics and ICT variables jointly and independently predict academic achievement of students in CBT but not significantly.
