Abstract

FRITSCH, Rosangela; ROCHA, Cleonice Silveira da  and  VITELLI, Ricardo Ferreira. The evasion in undergraduate courses in a private institution of higher education. Rev. Educ. Questão [online]. 2015, vol.52, n.38, pp.81-108. ISSN 1981-1802.  https://doi.org/10.5965/1981180252382015081.

The focus of the present paper is on the tax evasion of a given higher education institution. It seeks identify and to evaluate the variables influencing this phenomenon in order to act actively and preventively towards these students. It is a quantitative research where we performed a multivariate analysis and logistic regression. As a result, we could identify the variables influencing on the evasion of these students, delineate the profile of a student prone to evade and build a statistical model that can predict, with the highest level of accuracy, the probability of a student to evade. The most significant variables are related to social, economic, academic achievement and career choice.

Keywords : School evasion; Higher education; University management.
