مفاهيم الطلاب عن أسباب ضعف مستوى الأداء والتحصيل في مادة مبادئ المحاسبة : حالة عملية في المملكة العربية السعودية
 
Subject : Accounting 
Document Language : Arabic 
Abstract : Students at KFUPM in Saudi Arabia were surveyed to determine what they consider to be the major obstacles to successfully completing the two required courses in Principles of Accounting. The students were categorized as either accounting majors or non-accounting majors and were offered 26 potential obstacles plus one open-ended question. The study showed that the most significant obstacle was the negative attitude of students towards accounting as a difficult subject. Differences in responses of the two student groups occurred for only three of the listed obstacles, none of which were considered significant by either group. There was no correlation between the GPAs of the respondents and their views on the 26 obstacles. A comparison of the findings of this study and those of previous research is also discussed.
