The sample for this research included 23% of individuals attending SI that were
registered for Psychology 101 during winter quarter of the 2010-11 school year. The
sample consisted of individuals that attended SI with the web application introduced,
registered for Psychology 101, and were willing to take part in the research. Over the past
five quarters, dating back to fall quarter of the 2009-10 school year, an average of
31.89% of the students enrolled in Psychology 101 attended SI. That far exceeds the
target percentage of 10%, thus providing a plausible sample target for this research. In a
recent researcher designed survey, 79.5% of students that attended SI said they would use
an SI specific web application, an additional 15% said they maybe would use the SI web
application (Figure 6). Upon reviewing the SI term report, the SI Psychology 101
program was highlighted as the appropriate course.
