1 The Movement within attitudes/skills percentages reflect
the changes from pretest to post test at the individual
level. Among attitudes, decline is the proportion of
students within each attitude question that indicated a
lower level of that quality (e.g. less efficacious, less
trusting, less interested) at time two, none is the
proportion of students with no change, and increase are
those students who registered increased levels of interest,
trust, and efficacy in the post test . The skills movements
are the same as those reported in Table 5. The Political
socialization low and high is a dummy variable reflecting
students who reported any political activity in their home
versus those that reported none. The percentages under
Political socialization no/yes reflect the percentage of
students in those groups that changed in the desired
direction, e.g. 13.6% of the students who came from families
in which politics was not discussed or modeled registered
increased interest in National politics from time one to
time two.
