Sessoms, John; Finney, Sara J.; Kopp, Jason P.
Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, v49 n3 p243-257 Jul 2016
Academic entitlement (AE) characterizes students who believe they deserve positive academic outcomes independent of performance. Using the Academic Entitlement Questionnaire, we evaluated the longitudinal stability of the measurement and magnitude of AE. Results indicated partial measurement invariance, slight average increase in AE, and differential individual change in AE over time.
