Student Expectations As They Relate to Achievement in Eighth Grade Mathematics.
Smead, Valerie S.; Chase, Clinton I.
Journal of Educational Research, v75 n2 p115-20 Nov-Dec 1981

Results indicate that student expectations relate to subsequent achievement and that no significant relationship between achievement and expectations based on sex role stereotypes exists. (JN)
