Abstract

AbstractThis study investigated selected factors relevant to the frequently stated justification for the use of the pass-fail grading at the undergraduate level. Three samples of seventy-five students each were used to investigate the relation between overall, within major, and outside major GPA’s. The outside major GFA was significantly below the overall and within major GPA’s. Stratified random samples of students from four overall GPA ranges were selected from students who had elected a pass-fail course. For each GPA strata, the actual grades earned in pass-fail courses, for within and outside the major, were significantly lower than the previously earned GPA’s.
