| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim was to determine the degree of correlation between perceived app value and 1) OCEAN five dimensions of personality, 2) six facets of conscientiousness, 3) five English proficiency levels, 4) educational app usage patterns, and 5) regulation autonomy index (RAI). Multiple linear regression results showed significant positive correlations between app value and English proficiency, RAI, and app usage patterns. Furthermore, significant positive correlations also were found when personality traits were grouped using cluster analysis. A 3-way independent ANCOVA revealed significant interactions between educational app usage patterns, five clusters of the facets of conscientiousness and English ability. Two points stand out, 1) there are facet clusters that rate app value significantly higher than other clusters across all English proficiency levels, and 2) subjects with high usage patterns rate app value statistically higher irrespective of English proficiency level.
