The regression results using attendance as the dependent variable and the remaining five variables as the independent variables are presented below.
The coefficient of multiple determination ( R 2 j ) of each of the 5 predictors with all the other remaining predictors are,
respectively, 0.2675, 0.3101, 0.1038, 0.7325, and 0.7308
