Katherine Muenks & David B. Miele. (2017). “Students’ Thinking About Effort and Ability: The Role of Developmental, Contextual, and Individual Difference Factors.” Review of Educational Research, 87(4), 707–735.
In this article, Dr. Muenks and Dr. Miele review the literature on three types of factors that help explain differences in students’ thinking about the relation between effort and academic ability: students’ cognitive maturity, the academic context, and students’ personal beliefs about the nature of intellectual ability. The authors identify unresolved questions and disagreements in the literature and develop a theoretical framework to address these questions. The article presents a clear, well-informed review of the research and provides insight into the nuances of relationships among factors, such as how relationships may shift under different circumstances or over different time frames. The authors also include detailed suggestions for further research and thoughtful implications for practice.
