The results of this study were determined based on the analysis of the relationships
between the use of a certain version of the textbook (hard cover, e-book, or 3-ring binder), and
their answers to other pertinent survey questions. The data found for the hard cover and 3-ring
binder versions of the text represents the in-print text option. The data found for the e-book
version of the text represents the digital text option. The results were organized based on the two
research questions for this study: What is the relationship between the type of text being utilized
(in-print or digital) and the academic success of the reader? What are the students’ perceptions
of success based on their text selection? How do students engage with the type of text they
used?
