Abstract

A tanulmány célja annak vizsgálata, hogy egy hallgatói véleményezési rendszer reformját követően hogyan változott meg az érdemjegy és az oktatók hallgatói véleményezési pontszáma közötti kapcsolat. A reform által hozott legjelentősebb változás az volt, hogy a hallgatói véleményezési kérdőívek kitöltése átkerült a szorgalmi időszak második feléről a vizsgaidőszak utánra, ennek következtében pedig a hallgatók a kitöltés pillanatában már ismerték érdemjegyüket. A panelregressziós eredmények alapján a reform után szignifikánsan több mint kétszeresére nőtt az érdemjegy okozta torzítás, elsősorban az alacsony átlagos érdemjeggyel jellemezhető kurzusokon. Ez hosszú távon növeli a jegyinfláció kockázatát, ezért a kutatási eredmények alapján érdemes úgy kialakítani a hallgatói véleményezési rendszereket, hogy a kitöltés pillanatában a hallgatók még ne ismerjék végső érdemjegyüket.* Journal of Economic Literature (JEL) kód: C23, I21, I23.
