Teachers' Judgments About Their Students: The Effect of Cognitive Simplification Strategies on the Rating Process.
Cadwell, Joel; Jenkins, Jeffrey
American Educational Research Journal, v23 n3 p460-75 Fall 1986
An information-processing model of the rating process was proposed and tested by asking 18 teachers to rate 16 hypothetical student profiles formed by systematically varying information along six different dimensions. Findings revealed possible biases in teacher's ratings and indicated the importance of a theoretical model of the rating process. (Author/LMO)
