Introduction. The article is devoted to the problem of primary data processing of pedagogical experiments having a multimodal character. The purpose of the study is to identify the most effective and universal clustering algorithms for pedagogical experiments. Materials and Methods. The study used the method of modeling a pedagogical experiment. The analysis of 5 clustering algorithms is conducted. The effectiveness of clustering algorithms was evaluated based on the proportion of observations with clustering errors at various tolerance levels and the Jacquard similarity coefficient. Regression analysis was used to assess the influence of modeling parameters of a pedagogical experiment and indicators of descriptive statistics on the effectiveness of clustering algorithms. Results. The assessment of the effectiveness of various data clustering algorithms is provided, as well as a correlation and regression analysis of factors affecting clustering efficiency indicators was carried out. Conclusions. The most effective clustering algorithms for multimodal samples include the K-means algorithm and the agglomerative hierarchical algorithm. The results obtained in this research can be used for statistical analysis of pedagogical, psychological, sociological, biological and medical research data.
