Assessment of Psychology Graduate Program Information on the Web
Bartsch, Robert A.; Warren, Thomas D.; Sharp, Aaron D.; Green, Marsha A.
Teaching of Psychology, v30 n2 p167-170 2003
We gathered information on MA and PhD psychology programs from direct mailings and Web sites from 70 universities in the United States. Analyses revealed that Web sites provided more information about graduate programs than direct mailings, especially in areas not directly related to graduate applications. Further analyses indicated that information on the Web was, overall, not more difficult to find than information through direct mail. We make suggestions to universities and students for maximizing their use of Web sites.
