Relationships Between Expectations of Teachers and Performance of Students (Pygmalion in the Classroom)
Kohn, Paul M.
Journal of School Health, 43, 8, 498-503, Oct 73

Some of the contradictions can be resolved by considering variables intervening between an expectancy manipulation (induced in the teacher by information provided by the investigator) and the evaluation of the expectation's effects on the student.
