Cooper, Harris; Lindsay, James J.; Nye, Barbara; Greathouse, Scott
Journal of Educational Psychology, v90 n1 p70-83 Mar 1998
The amount of homework assigned and completed, and attitudes about homework, were studied through questionnaires completed by 709 students, their parents, and 82 teachers. Differences in student, parent, and teacher perceptions of the amount of homework assigned and completed are discussed. In the lower grades, amount of homework completed helped predict class grades.
