这项荟萃分析研究了研究生入学考试(GRE)和本科生平均成绩(UGPA)作为研究生院表现预测指标的有效性。该研究包括来自多个学科的样本,考虑了不同的标准措施,并校正了统计伪影。来自1,753个独立样本的数据被纳入荟萃分析,为8个不同标准和82,659名研究生产生了6,589个相关性。研究结果表明,GRE和UGPA是研究生平均绩点、第一年研究生平均绩点的普遍有效的预测因子。综合考试成绩,出版物引用计数,和教师评级。GRE与学位获得和研究生产力的相关性始终是积极的,但是,一些较低的90%的可信度区间包括0。主题测试往往是更好的预测比口头,定量和分析测试。
This meta-analysis examined the validity of the Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) and undergraduate grade point average (UGPA) as predictors of graduate school performance. The study included samples from multiple disciplines, considered different criterion measures, and corrected for statistical artifacts. Data from 1,753 independent samples were included in the meta-analysis, yielding 6,589 correlations for 8 different criteria and 82,659 graduate students. The results indicated that the GRE and UGPA are generalizably valid predictors of graduate grade point average, ist-year graduate grade point average. comprehensive examination scores, publication citation counts, and faculty ratings. GRE correlations with degree attainment and research productivity were consistently positive; however, some lower 90% credibility intervals included 0. Subject Tests tended to be better predictors than the Verbal, Quantitative, and Analytical tests.
