2002年秋季和2003年春季，在美国中西部的一所大型研究型大学对172名本科生进行了一项调查。正如预期的那样，调查发现，学生对出勤率的重视程度与他们后来的出勤率之间存在统计学上显著的正相关关系（r = 0.174，p < 0.05）。数据按学生的性别和在校级别进行分析;未完成关于态度的可选调查问题的学生的出勤率与回答了该问题的学生的出勤率进行比较。虽然态度只是影响行为的许多复杂因素之一，但大学教师可以（也应该）培养和鼓励对上课出勤重要性的积极态度，以尽量减少学生缺席的不利影响。
A survey of 172 undergraduates, carried out during the fall 2002 and spring 2003 semesters at a large research university in the Midwestern United States, found, as expected, a statistically significant positive relationship (r = 0.174, p < 0.05) between the importance students attributed to attendance and the rates at which they subsequently attended class. Data are analysed by students' gender and levels in school; and attendance rates of students who did not complete the optional survey question on attitudes are compared with attendance rates of students who answered the question. Although attitudes are but one of many complex factors that influence behaviours, university instructors can (and should) nurture and encourage positive attitudes towards the importance of class attendance as a means for minimizing the detrimental effects of student absences.
