Abstract:
The general goal of the current study was to link the seven API personality factors to the educational field. Moreover, the research question that was looked into was what combination of API factor-score contributes to students feeling better fit in their educational fields.
This study is based on the API short, which summarizes personality into seven factors across the Arab Levant. The educational majors that make up those fields (Sciences and Social Sciences, Business, Arts, and Engineering and Architecture) are majors that students say they have the right personality for as well as majors they think they would have fit in had given the chance.
Based on the Association Rule Mining and Apriori algorithm, the top ten rules per field were identified and used to highlight the relationship between the factors and the field at hand. From which, further analysis and implications have been made based on the results.
