Discriminant Analysis of Student Ratings as a Means for Identifying Lecturers Who Differ in Enthusiasm or Information-Giving

Ware, John E., Jr.; Williams, Reed G.

Educational and Psychological Measurement, 37, 3, 627-39, Aut 77

College students viewed taped lectures which were systematically varied by lecturers's enthusiasm and amount of information presented. They then rated the lectures with a standard faculty evaluation form. Discriminant analysis was performed in order to derive optimal scoring methods for the form. (Author/JKS)
