Researchers explored group differences in the predictive validity of undergraduate GPA, GRE, and MAT scores on CPCE results between 14a sample of White and Black counseling students (n = 378). Results indicated that both the GRE and MAT demonstrate predictive validity on CPCE scores. Differences across the sampling groups and implications for…

Intended to determine the validity of the total score on the Graduate Record Examinations Aptitude Test (GRE) and of the score on the Miller Analogies Test (MAT) as predictors of a criterion of completion or noncompletion of the Doctoral Program in Educational Administration at State University of New York at Albany.

The predictive validity of the Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) and the Miller Analogies Test (MAT) in a doctoral program in education was investigated. Results supported the use of the GRE but not the MAT. (Author/JKS)

In 1986, Seattle (Washington) Pacific University (SPU) chose to research the relationship of students' entering grade point average (EGPA) and scores on the Miller Analogies Test (MAT) and Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) to students' GPA achieved while attending SPU's graduate school (GGPA). Subjects were 350 students admitted from 1973 through…

As I have spent almost 85 years in the past century, I can write with considerable authority on looking back. As I have dared to write on looking forward several times, I will try to project myself into the future. Some of my dreams of the future of creativity research and practice have already happened. Others have been partly realized, and…

Findings of a study that examined the relationship between aspiring educational administrators' graduate school admissions test performances and their assessed skill dimensions are presented in this paper. Specifically, the study sought to determine the relationship between graduate admissions test scores, as measured by the Miller Analogies Test…

The implications of entrance requirements for success in a graduate teacher program were studied. Success was defined as maintaining a 3.0 grade point average with no more than 12 semester hours of "C" or lower. Entrance requirements were those of the University of Houston, Texas. The subjects were 139 1985 spring and summer graduates of…

Although the Miller Analogies Test (MAT) is used extensively as an admissions test for graduate programs, relatively little research has examined the validity of the MAT for predicting subsequent graduate student achievement and no published studies have examined differential prediction of student performance from MAT scores. There were two…

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)
