Intellective and Non-Intellective Predictors of Academic Achievement at a Filipino University.

Watkins, David; Astilla, Estela

Educational and Psychological Measurement, v40 n1 p245-49 Spr 1980

A follow-up study of 1,149 freshmen at a major Filipino university showed that intellective measures were only moderately successful predictors of college grade point average. However, the nonintellective variables considered were (with the possible exception of level of scholastic expectation) of little value as predictors of college performance. (Author/BW)
