Professor Brand Advocacy: Do Brand Relationships Matter? (2010, background): “…(Moore, 2006), quality of instruction (Barth, 2008), course characteristics and organization (Paswan & Young, 2002; Seiler & Seiler, 2002), fair exams (Moore, 2006), smaller class sizes (Burns & Ludlow, 2005; McPherson, 2006), and positive student–instructor interactions (Paswan & Young, 2002).”
What Determines Student Evaluation Scores? A Random Effects Analysis of Undergraduate Economics Classes (2009, unknown): “Several researchers [Danielsen and White 1976; Mason et al. 1995; McPherson 2006] have suggested adjusting raw SET scores to eliminate the influence of factors that either could be manipulated by instructors to their advantage (e.”
Gender biases in student evaluations of teaching (2017, background): “But there are good reasons to assume that students are in fact subjective evaluators of teacher productivity, since there exists some evidence that the criteria on which students judge their teachers are in part exogenous or unrelated to teachers’ actual teaching qualities [e.g. De Witte and Rogge, ”
On the Validity of Student Evaluation of Teaching (2013, background): “Nevertheless, other authors continue to advocate the grading-leniency hypothesis (i.e., teachers can buy good evaluations by giving high grades; see, e.g., Isely & Singh, 2005; Langbein, 2008; McPherson, 2006; McPherson & Todd Jewell, 2007), drawing upon attribution theories and measures of the inst”
On Students’ (Mis)judgments of Learning and Teaching Effectiveness (2020, unknown): “…grade more conservatively e.g., DuCette & Kenney, 1982; Eiszler, 2002; Ewing, 2012; reenwald & Gillmore, 1997a, 1997b; Holmes, 1972; Isely & ingh, 2005; McPherson, 2006; Olivares, 2001; Stroebe, 2016; ut see Heckert, Latier, Ringwald-Burton, & Drazen, 2006; arsh & Roche, 2000; Palmer et al., 1978).”
Measuring teaching quality in higher education: assessing selection bias in course evaluations (2017, methodology): “Further, in an analysis of the determinants of SET scores, McPherson (2006) controls for the response rate at the course level to correct for selection in a reduced—form way, finding it to have a positive, albeit small, effect on upper-division courses.”
