Congruence of Pretest Predictions and Posttest Estimations with Grades on Short Answer and Essay Tests.
Jacobson, Jeanne M.
Educational Research Quarterly, v14 n2 p41-47 1990
The congruence among students' predictions of grades before taking short-answer and essay tests, their estimations of grades after taking the tests, and the actual grades was studied for 69 college students. There was a significant, but slight, positive relationship between students' judgments and their actual grades. (SLD)
