Michael James Verostek Jr. – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Physics education research to date has predominantly focused on the undergraduate level. This has left critical avenues of research in graduate education relatively understudied and has motivated much of my research. Numerous studies across the education research landscape have analyzed undergraduate admissions practices, but few have critically…

Millicent Musyoka; Raymond Doe – Journal of Developmental and Physical Disabilities, 2024
Graduate Records Examinations (GRE) remain an important criterion for admission to the graduate program. This study explored the predictive role of the GRE for college success among deaf students because most deaf and hard-of-hearing students experience lifelong difficulties in English language and literacy because of their different language…

Razmi, Mohammad Hasan; Khabir, Masoud; Tilwani, Shouket Ahmad – International Journal of Language Testing, 2021
Since its inception in 1949, over 1,500 studies have investigated the validity of the GRE General Test to predict its performance criteria in higher education (Klieger, Bridgeman, Tannenbaum, & Cline, 2016). The present review paper sought to examine the predictive validity of the GRE General Test. Factors affecting the predictive validity…

Amy A. Franckowiak – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Purpose: The purpose of this scholarly project was to determine if GRE scores (verbal reasoning, quantitative reasoning, and analytical writing) predict first-time pass rate on the NCE. This project also investigated the correlation between first-time pass rate on the NCE and the individual covariates of age at program matriculation, sex, race,…

Mendoza-Sanchez, Itza; deGruyter, Justine N.; Savage, Nowlan T.; Polymenis, Michael – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2022
There is interest in admission criteria that predict future success in biomedical graduate school programs, but identifying predictors of PhD attainment is inherently complex. In particular, high noncompletion rates of PhD programs have long been recognized as a major crisis. Here, we present a quantitative analysis of the PhD students enrolled in…

Long, Victoria Lynn – ProQuest LLC, 2021
The growing concern of doctoral student persistence has increased exponentially in higher education over the past decade. The body of research presented in this dissertation examines the complex phenomenon of persistence and possible pathways to addressing the dilemma of deteriorating academic persistence for doctoral students. It explores and…

Reisfeld, Nicole Duval; Kaplan, Stacy Lyn – Perspectives of the ASHA Special Interest Groups, 2022
Purpose: The primary purpose of this systematic review was to investigate the ability of admission measures to predict clinical skills in graduate students from a variety of health sciences fields. Method: Online databases were searched for research using application measures to make predictions regarding clinical skill development in graduate…

Verostek, Mike; Miller, Casey W.; Zwickl, Benjamin – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021
An analysis of 1955 physics graduate students from 19 Ph.D. programs shows that undergraduate grade point average predicts graduate grades and Ph.D. completion more effectively than GRE scores. Students' undergraduate GPA (UGPA) and GRE Physics (GRE-P) scores are small but statistically significant predictors of graduate course grades, while GRE…
