The Effect of the Interpersonal Expectancies in Education. Implications for Teachers

Dorota Turska

Abstract


The article presents research on the effect of interpersonal expectations. The mechanism of transforming expectations into the phenomenon of self-fulfilling prophecy in education (Pygmalion effect) is presented. As implications of the presented knowledge for teachers, the Teacher Expectation and Student Achievement (TESA) program was analyzed, and a “list of questions for reflection” was included as an aid in self-evaluation.


Keywords
