A Latent-Variable Causal Model of Faculty Reputational Ratings.

King, Suzanne; Wolfle, Lee M.

Research in Higher Education, v27 n2 p99-106 1987

A LISREL analysis demonstrates the value of regressing reputational ratings on three latent variables: size, faculty research productivity, and the quality of program graduates. The model was tested using National Research Council data for each of six disciplines: English, French, philosophy, geography, political science, and sociology. (Author/MLW)
