Results of an evaluation of students’ attitudes and their relationship to student behaviors within a tutoring system are presented. Starting from a correlation analysis that integrates survey-collected student attitudes, learning variables, and behaviors while using the tutor, we constructed a Bayesian Network that infers attitudes and perceptions towards help and the tutoring system.
