Abstract

It is widely believed that good designers are the best judges of architectural design. In the present study 27 architecture students rated 15 architectural designs by other students. The instructors' ratings were criteria. As predicted, good student designers were not more accurate than poor student designers, and they erred in opposite directions; average students were most accurate. Contrary to expectation, poor designs were, on the average, most accurately rated, but they also provided the greatest disagreement. A post hoc factor analysis of the data is discussed.
