A Comparative Analysis of First-Generation Immigrant Students' Mathematics Performance in PISA 2018 Assessment
Thu, April 21, 4:15 to 5:45pm PDT (4:15 to 5:45pm PDT), Marriott Marquis San Diego Marina, Floor: South Building, Level 1, Pacific Ballroom 18Abstract
This study examines the mathematics performance of first-generation immigrant students in the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) 2018 by considering their age of arrival to the United States. Multilevel linear models used to analyze the data. Results revealed that first-generation immigrants who arrived in the United States after the age of 12 performed lower than other students in the PISA 2018 mathematics test. First-generation immigrant students who arrived in the U.S. before the age of 12 performed as well as second-generation immigrant students and the non-immigrant students. Implications of the results are discussed.
