The purposes of the research were to: (1) re-examine the SPQ's internal consistency; (2) explore dimensionality of the SPQ scales; and (3) investigate validity of Bigg's model of the study process complex through factor analysis.

Biggs, J. B. – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 1978

This complex mediates between personological and institutional variables on the one hand and academic performance on the other. (Author/SJL)
