Abstract
The reinforcement principle, “We will like those who reward us; we will dislike those who punish us,” was tested by comparing faculty evaluations and grades received by students. Data from a random sample of 37 courses suggest that the principle is valid, especially if it is reformulated as “We will like those whom we expect to reward us.” Implications are discussed regarding design and use of faculty evaluations in colleges and universities.
