“…In order to analyze the data, we used CHIC (Classification Hiérarchique Implicative et Cohésitive) software [67][68][69]. It allows associations (implicative and similarity) from a set of data to be calculated and dendrograms to be constructed in the form of ''implicative graphs'' and ''similarity trees,'' for an easy comparison of the results.…”

This paper describes a method aimed at pointing out the quality of the mental models undergraduate engineering students deploy when asked to create explanations for phenomena or processes and/or use a given model in the same context. Student responses to a specially designed written questionnaire are quantitatively analyzed using researcher-generated categories of reasoning, based on the physics education research literature on student understanding of the relevant physics content. The use of statistical implicative analysis tools allows us to successfully identify clusters of students with respect to the\ud similarity to the reasoning categories, defined as ‘‘practical or everyday,’’ ‘‘descriptive,’’ or ‘‘explicative.’’\ud Through the use of similarity and implication indexes our method also enables us to study the consistency\ud in students’ deployment of mental models. A qualitative analysis of interviews conducted with students\ud after they had completed the questionnaire is used to clarify some aspects which emerged from the\ud quantitative analysis and validate the results obtained. Some implications of this joint use of quantitative\ud and qualitative analysis for the design of a learning environment focused on the understanding of some aspects of the world at the level of causation and mechanisms of functioning are discussed

“…(Greenacre, 2007;Clausen, 1998) were used for the questionnaires' statistical analysis. MCA was run using CHIC software (Markos et al, 2008). In order to define the importance of contribution for each factor, COR and CTR (Relative and Absolute Contribution) indices were used that reproduced factorial axes and first factorial planes (formed by the two first factorial axes).…”

Successful e-learning applications are based upon integrated marketing strategy, which involves thorough market and target group analysis. Understanding target group specific needs and characteristics, analyzing environmental factors, determining strategic and tactical aims, as well as, planning the requiring marketing mix elements are considered important activities to develop a competency based and IT deliverable elearning academic module. As a result, e-learning providers need to position themselves in the marketplace based upon their missions and abilities in order to respond to e-learning challenges in a strategic manner. Greek educational institutions reveal increased interest, but also hesitance in developing and administrating e-learning applications. This paper aims to provide Greek prospective e-learning providers with all the necessary information regarding prospective target market segments in order to specify perceptions about e-learning concept. Specifically, a primary research was conducted in order to examine and analyze samplesβ aspects, demands and needs towards the adoption of e-learning programs. Descriptive statistics as well as Multiple Correspondence Analysis are used to present comparative statistical data.

“…Τέλος, διερευνήθηκε, μέσω του στατιστικού ελέγχου χ 2 , η στατιστική και η πρακτική σημαντικότητα της σχέσης ανάμεσα στις συστάδες-ομάδες που σχηματίστηκαν και στις επιμέρους κοινωνικο-εκπαιδευτικές παραμέτρους της έρευνας. Για τη στατιστική επεξεργασία χρησιμο-ποιήθηκαν τα πακέτα SPSS v17.0 και CHIC Analysis v1.2 (Markos et al, 2009). …”
