The research is a national study of educational research in Australia, with particular emphasis

Next, the General Linear Model was also run to test whether there were separate and/or joint 
effects of student gender and age on their general interests in a higher degree. It was found that 
there was neither significant separate nor joint effect of gender and age on students’ general 
interests in higher degrees at p<.05.

In terms of students’ particular interests in higher degrees, the results revealed that at p<.05, 
students’ age did affect their particular interest in pursuing higher degree studies (table 8). 

Graph 3 showed that at p<.05, students of age group 45-54 were significantly different from 
those over 54 in their particular interests in studying a higher degree. The 45-54 year old 
students were significantly less motivated to pursue a particular area of interest in higher 
degrees. However, there was no separate effect of gender and no joint effect of both gender 
and age on this scale.
