Abstract
This paper uses data from PISA 2018 in Germany to explore how the students‘chronotype (known as larks and owls) and their academic achievement is related to truancy. We used an adapted version of the Munich Chronotype Questionnaire (MCTQ) to measure the students’ chronotype. The results demonstrate a correlation between the students’ social jet lag, student achievement, and truancy. Finally, we discuss the potential inclusion of chronotypes as a measure in large-scale international student assessments.
