Abstract | The current study was designed to test Lathrop and Richmond's (1967) conclusion that perceived learning is an important factor in faculty evaluations. A 17 item questionnaire including the perceived learning area was administered to 470 students (2 classes in each of 8 departments) at Chico State College. Separate multiple regression equations for the prediction of instructor ratings and for course evaluations indicated that perceived learning is one of three factors significantly influencing these ratings. A supplementary finding was that students can rate unit factorial items with relative independence. The results constitute strong support for Lathrop and Richmond's conclusion. A theoretical framework for student's ratings of courses and instructors is advanced. (Author) |
