The "Teacher's Pet" Phenomenon, Students' Perceptions of Teachers' Differential Behavior, and Students' Morale.
Babad, Elisha
Journal of Educational Psychology, v87 n3 p361-74 Sep 1995
The relationships among the teacher's pet phenomenon, students' perceptions of teachers' differential behavior, and students' morale were investigated in 80 Israeli upper elementary classrooms. The intensity of the teacher's pet phenomenon was related to perceived teachers' differential behavior, which, in turn, was negatively related to student morale. (SLD)
