The Use of Self-Reported Grade Point Averages in Research Studies.
Benton, Sidney E.
Southern Journal of Educational Research, v14 n2 p145-50 Spr 1980
To determine if university students would accurately report their grade point averages (GPAs) to a researcher, 525 students were asked to fill out data sheets. When 62 of the self-reported GPAs were compared with official records no significant differences were found, indicating students can and will accurately report their GPAs. (DS)
