Correlation coefficients between graduate grade point average and each of three predictor variables, consisting of Graduate Record Examinations-Verbal score, Graduate Record Examination-Quantitative score, and undergraduate grade point average, were calculated for each of the six subgroups. Results showed differential predictability across the…

Factors seem to indicate that the OQS could be effectively substituted for the NTE as a screening measure for graduate students in education. The D-48 was not added to the prediction equation, since it made a negligible contribution to the total prediction. (Authors/CB)

Using grade point average and graduation-nongraduation as two separate criteria and eight predictor variables selected from doctoral applicants' folders at an Arizona university, a canonical correlation of .624 for a sample of 65 graduate students shrank to -.095 for a cross validation sample of 21 students.

This research was concerned with the significance of class size, class level, and core v noncore sections of classes in instructor evaluation at a major state university. High evaluations were associated with small, noncore, undergraduate classes. (Author/CP)

The predictive validity of the Admissions Test for Graduate Study in Business (ATGSB) and alternative predictors for English-speaking and non-English speaking students in a Master's Degree Business Administration Program were investigated. The ATGSB and other variables were found to correlate with success in the program. (Author/JKS)

A number of measures were examined as predictors of graduate students' achievement in inferential statistics courses. The most important predictor variable set was attitudes toward feminist issues. Other predictors included mathematics attitude and masculinity-femininity. Sex-related differences were found on all variables except verbal and…

Selection criteria at a graduate school of business were examined in a study evaluating the predictive validity of the Graduate Management Admissions Test and the Miller Analogies Test for 203 recent graduates. Implications of the correlations between test results and grade point average for admission policy are discussed. (SLD)
