The outstanding performance of East Asian societies in the
Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) is one of the
most widely discussed topics in international assessments. PISA is
a worldwide study of scholastic performance, conducted by the
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), of
15-year old pupils in mathematics, science and reading.This book
provides readers with a comprehensive view on the excellent
performance of students in Hong Kong and East Asian societies based
on solid empirical data from the first five cycles of the PISA
study from 2000 to 2012. Adopting a broad perspective, this book
links the performance of students to themselves, their families and
respective schools - the three major selves and social contexts
that exert powerful influence on young people in Hong Kong. It is
unique that the book does not only define student outcomes narrowly
as cognitive performance on various tests in PISA, but also employs
a number of affective indicators, such as students' self-regulated
learning, their self-concept measures, and attitudes towards
learning. The book argues that schooling is a complex enterprise,
and the relationships between school outcomes and the larger
families, schools, and societal contexts are even more complex. The
book utilizes summary statistics and multivariate methods to
investigate how various measures of student outcomes are influenced
by these contextual factors.
