Abstract
This chapter describes the features of education at the College of Economics Nihon University, Japan, focusing on university students’ learning using the same questionnaire as in other chapters. To this end, a survey was conducted in the College of Economics. In this section, we calculate the fit indices to check the structural validity of the scales (SLEQ and CCSS). This chapter also focuses on the interrelationships among subscales and gender differences.
