ICT Engagement

in PISA 2015 and 2018

Open Research Knowledge Graph

The Programme for International Student Assessment, or PISA, is a large-scale educational survey conducted once in three years to measure 15-year-olds' ability to use their knowledge in science, mathematics, reading, and other domains to meet real-life challenges.

In PISA 2015 and 2018, students' attitudes towards information and communication technology (ICT) were assessed by the ICT Engagement Framework. It includes four attitudes towards ICT: (1) ICT autonomy, (2) ICT competence, (3) ICT interest, and (4) ICT in social interaction.

We used the Open Resource Knowldege Graph to collect research papers exploring students' attitudes towards ICT in PISA 2015 and 2018 in relation to their academic achievement. When you select a paper here, you get a link to the ORKG.

When you hover over the map, you can see the number of studies referring to a specific country. These countries were studied separately, or in comparison with others. If the country is not highlighted on the map, there are no studies related to it in our database.


Please use the dropdown menu to select studies related to specific countries.

In the graphs below, the positive and negative relationships between students' attitudes towards ICT and their scores in mathematics, reading, and science are shown. The bars indicate the number of studies in which the specific relationship between the ICT attitude and the specific domain was found. You can select attitudes which you want to see on the graph. We do not include the significance of the relationships, as the authors of the studies used different significance levels.

You can find studies of your interest by selecting the ICT attitudes and domains and pressing the "see results" button.





You can find more information on the topic with the ORKG structured comparison. The ORKG comparison has a different functionality; for instance, you can select studies exploring attitudes towards ICT in PISA 2015 and 2018 in accordance with their methodology. Please contact us (Olga.Lezhnina@tib.eu) if you know a paper on ICT attitudes in PISA 2015 and 2018 which is not in our database, or join the ORKG Project to contribute to novel methods in scholarly communication.
