Recent Research
- Research expectations
– Students could be high in AE for different reasons (e.g., personality, “customer” expectations, coping with academic demands, etc.)1, 2. – Clustering was done with six AE scales and the Narcissistic Personality Inventory (NPI).
- Implications
– Findings may be able to help us understand student motivations behind AE and improve educational experiences and outcomes.
