Schmidt, Henk G.; Moust, Jos H. C. – 1995
This study tested a causal model of the influence of tutor behavior on student achievement and interest in the context of problem-based learning. Data were gathered from 524 tutorial groups involving students in the health sciences curriculum at the University of Limburg in the Netherlands during 1992-93. Correlations among the 261 tutors' social…
