Grade Inflation in Higher Education: A Comparative Study.
Kolevzon, Michael S.
Research in Higher Education, v15 n3 p195-212 1981
Ten departments with high grade inflation rates during a seven-year period were compared with 10 departments within the same university displaying lower grade inflation rates. Higher grade inflation rates were related to perceived increases in the demands placed upon the academicians' role. (Author/MLW)
