This study examines student attitudes about graphs used in the macroand microeconomic sections of the one-semester principles of economics course at a large southeastern state university. In addition, we investigate the relation between attitudes about graphs and student performance in the course, control ling for a variety of factors, such as SAT scores, college GPA, and a number of other student character istics (e.g., sex, race, college major, and term standing). Employing a probit regression model, we also study the factors that predict student attitudes toward graphs. Our sample includes data collected from 663 students during the period 2000-2001.
