Grouping in Primary Schools and Reference Processes.
Meijnen, G. W.; Guldemond, H.
Educational Research and Evaluation: An International Journal on Theory and Practice, v8 n3 p229-48 Sep 2002
Studied reference processes in within-class grouping for elementary school students in the Netherlands in homogeneous (n=16) and heterogeneous (n=14) classes. Findings indicate that homogeneous grouping sets strong reference processes in motion, and processes of comparison have considerably greater effects in homogeneous groups, with negative effects on the performance of low achievers.
