NSSE 2015 Respondent ProfileAbout This Report
The Respondent Profile presents both student- and institution-reported demographic information, allowing you to examine similarities and differences between your students and those at your comparison group
institutions. This report uses information from all randomly selected or census-administered students. The display below highlights important details in the report to keep in mind when interpreting your results. For more
information please visit our website (nsse.indiana.edu) or contact your NSSE Project Services team.
Response options: Response options are worded as they appear on the instrument. Class level: As reported by your institution.
Item numbers: Numbering corresponds to the survey facsimile included in your Institutional
Report and available on the NSSE website.
Count and column percentage (%): The Count column contains the number of students who
selected the corresponding response option. The column percentage is the weighted percentage of
students selecting the corresponding response option.
Note: Column percentages are weighted by institution-reported sex and enrollment status. Comparison
group percentages are also weighted by institutional size. Counts are unweighted and cannot be used
to replicate column percentages. For details visit: nsse.indiana.edu/html/weighting.cfm
