Relationship to Background Characteristics: The Witch Hunt for Potential Biases in Students' Evaluations.
Marsh, Herbert W.
International Journal of Educational Research, v11 n3 p305-29 1987

Meta-analysis and systematic review are required for more accurate estimates of the size of effects that have been reported and the conditions under which they were found. (SLD)
