Correlates of Halo Error in Teacher Evaluation.
Moritsch, Brian G.; Suter, W. Newton
Educational Research Quarterly, v12 n3 p29-34 Jul 1988
An analysis of 300 undergraduate psychology student ratings of teachers was undertaken to assess the magnitude of halo error and a variety of rater, ratee, and course characteristics. The raters' halo errors were significantly related to student effort in the course, previous experience with the instructor, and class level. (TJH)
