Teachers’ Expectations Carried Out by Students in A Profound Way

In research studies by Rosenthal, Jacobson, Lenore and others, well known as the Pygmalion Effect, also known as the Power of Expectations, children were given an achievement test, and they had a wide range of scores on the tests. The students were then randomly assigned to two groups of teachers. One group of teachers was informed that all their students had achieved the highest scores on the test, the other group of teachers was told theirs had the lowest scores on the test.

Even though the students were randomly assigned, they actually performed according to the teachers’ expectations, which were based on what they had been told about the students. The effects were seen almost immediately, within the short time the experiment was conducted. The teachers who thought they were working with all the high-scoring students had them performing at high levels of achievement on various evaluation criteria, while the teachers who thought their students were the ones with low test scores found that the students performed poorly.

After revealing this information to the teachers, they began to see that their own thoughts and expectations did make a difference in the children’s performance, and the performance of the “slow” classes improved dramatically in the following weeks as a result.


A Stanford University study showed measurable and dramatic acceleration in reading speed and comprehension when they renamed the Remedial Reading room to Accelerated Reading Room for the school year.
