Abstract

Peer assessment ratings of graduate programs have been both highly cited and criticized as measures of program quality. This study analyzes factors that affect peer assessments of faculty quality and program effectiveness from the 1993 survey by the National Research Council. We found that the determinants for faculty quality and program effectiveness are very similar. Further, programs in private institutions and/or in institutions with more highly rated programs have higher ratings. Although program reputations evolve slowly, programmatic changes can influence them.
