• Student evaluations of teaching are an inadequate assessment tool for evaluating faculty performance (2017, background): “…as validity, reliability, gender bias, and a number of other related issues (Beecham, 2009; Boring, Ottoboni, & Stark, 2016; Braga, Paccagnella, & Pellizzari, 2014; Hoefer, Yurkiewicz, & Byrne, 2012; Spooren, Brockx, & Mortelmans, 2013; Stark & Freishtat, 2014; Wright, 2006; Yunker & Yunker, 2003).”
• Student evaluations of teaching: perceptions of faculty based on gender, position, and rank (2010, background): “Other researchers (Rodin and Rodin 1972 ; Yunker and Yunker 2003 ) found a negative correlation between learning and student evaluations.”
• On Students’ (Mis)judgments of Learning and Teaching Effectiveness (2020, methodology): “All the available evidence has emonstrated a negative correlation between students’ evaluaions of teaching and their performance in follow-up courses Braga et al., 2014; Carrell & West, 2010; Johnson, 2003; einberg, Fleisher, & Hashimoto, 2007; Yunker & Yunker, 003; for a review, see Kornell & Hausm”
• Student Evaluations of Teaching: Are They Related to What Students Learn? (2009, background): “Learning could be measured by the performance in future classes controlled for student characteristics and performance in prerequisite classes (Johnson, 2003; Weinberg et al., 2007; Yunker & Yunker, 2003).”
• Meta-analysis of faculty's teaching effectiveness: Student evaluation of teaching ratings and student learning are not related (2017, background): “…(1952) Psychology 66 17 38 .16 Whitely and Doyle (1979).01 Math (intro) 67 40 39 5 .80 .80 .80 1 Whitely and Doyle (1979).02 Math (intro) 68 41 40 11 .11 .11 .11 1 Wiviott and Pollard (1974) Educational Psychology 6 .04 .00 0 Yunker and Yunker (2003) Accounting (intro) 42 46 .11 .19 .19 0 Notes.”
• Student Evaluations of Teaching Encourages Poor Teaching and Contributes to Grade Inflation: A Theoretical and Empirical Analysis (2020, methodology): “Because students’ grades are also strongly influenced by ability factors, Yunker and Yunker (2003) used the overall GPA as well as the ACT score as controls.”
• Are students customers? TQM and marketing perspectives (2007, background): “Numerous similar assertions have been made of declining academic standards and associated grade inflation (Clayson and Haley, 2005; Yunker and Yunker, 2003; Ballard, 2004; Chonko et al., 2002), but little empirical evidence has been presented to support the claims made.”
