Abstract
To contribute to research on the effective practice of pharmaceutical law, we analyzed the learner characteristics that influence learning outcomes in this field at Kitasato University School of Pharmacy. Specifically, we conducted a forced entry multiple regression analysis. The explanatory variables were the learner's gender, course, university entrance examination format, course year progression, completion of related subjects, and submission of class quizzes, while examination performance in pharmaceutical law was the response variable. The learners' course of study and submission of class quizzes were found to have a significant influence on the examination results. The examination performance of students enrolled in a four-year course was 14.4% lower than students enrolled in a six-year course, while students with records of not submitting the class quizzes scored 8.4% lower than those who submitted all the quizzes. It is probable that there was a fundamental difference between the academic ability of the students enrolled in the two courses that affected the examination results. The fact that the submission of class quizzes had an effect on the examination results may be useful in developing a learning guide for the students. To further enhance the evidence of the analysis of learner characteristics in this field, obtaining the results of joint research with other universities is necessary.
