Relations Between Student Achievement and Various Indexes of Teacher Expectations.
Cooper, Harris; And Others
Journal of Educational Psychology, v74 n4 p577-79 Aug 1982
The relative effectiveness of three measures of teacher expectations for predicting students' achievement was studied. Teachers' perceptions of student ability and the discrepancy between teacher-perceived ability and student-tested ability were related to achievement change. The amount of improvement the teacher expected was unrelated to the other measures. (Author/BW)
