Abstract:The relationship between spatial heterogeneity and students' academic performance is a widely researched topic. This study extends the concept of spatial heterogeneity into two categories - allocatable (acquired after birth) and ascribed (determined before birth) - using seating and hometown information as variables in Spatial Durbin Models for statistical analysis, identifying seating as the salient feature. Subsequently, through 2,000 iterations of random state testing with undergraduate data from two classe… Show more
