@KingBeauregard @heyitsrosemulet Anyone with familiarity with the area would note immediately that her answer is based upon the Pygmalion effect. The original study is nonsense (see first link) and later research shows any effect to be slight. https://t.co/msJqcDYtS4 https://t.co/2CjQjipPF3

AI synopsis
What people are saying
The analysis reflects a nuanced conversation about the validity and scope of teacher expectations' effects, with examples such as references to the original Jussim and Harber (2005) study and discussions on whether effects have been overstated. The tone varies from critical to analytical, emphasizing scholarly debate and the complexity of confirming the phenomenon's real-world impact.
Most discussions acknowledge the original research but also highlight ongoing debates and see the validity of the concept of self-fulfilling prophecies, with some posts explicitly criticizing the magnitude of effects.
Posts demonstrate a high level of curiosity, referencing detailed studies, alternative perspectives, and ongoing controversies, indicating active engagement with the topic.
Several contributions cite specific studies, authors, and research reviews, showing a thoughtful examination of the evidence and context beyond surface-level opinions.
The collective tone suggests that the publication influences academic debates and draws attention to unresolved issues, potentially guiding future research.
Abstract in brief
- Teacher expectations do influence student outcomes, but the effects are usually small and don't build up significantly over time or across different students, often fading away instead of growing.
- The research suggests that strong self-fulfilling prophecies are more likely to happen with students from stigmatized social groups, highlighting potential biases in teacher expectations.
- It remains uncertain whether teacher expectations impact students' intelligence or do more good than harm, and some evidence indicates teachers might predict student success more based on their actual abilities than on expectations alone, with future research needed to explore these dynamics further.]

@paulbloomatyale @zoebchance My read isn't that it's all gone. There were valid criticisms of the original study, but the idea of self-fulfilling prophecies has empirical backing. Within the realm of education, they're likely much smaller in effect size in most cases. https://t.co/wWE1UwOqoa
