A thesis is an aptitude test for students. The approval of the thesis is proof that the student has sufficient research and reporting skills to graduate but does not guarantee the quality of the research and the results of the research as such, and the thesis is therefore not necessarily suitable to be used as an academic source to refer to. If you would like to know more about the research discussed in this thesis and any publications based on it, to which you could refer, please contact the supervisor mentioned.


Abstract

Despite the growing interest in the different feedback constellations, intrapersonal and interpersonal characteristics have received limited attention. The present study examined the influence of the expertise of the feedback sender, and of the feedback tolerance of feedback receiver on perceived adequacy of feedback, willingness to improve, and affect. To manipulate the variables, higher education students (N = 54) received two vignettes containing feedback by a fictional peer or fictional lecturer. There were two variations of peer feedback, with half of the participants receiving the vignette with feedback from a fictional peer with high expertise, and the other half the vignette with feedback from a fictional peer with low expertise. All of them also received a vignette with lecturer feedback. The instruments of the research were the Feedback Tolerance Questionnaire (FTQ), the Feedback Perceptions Questionnaire (FPQ), and one open-ended question. Main findings showed that both expertise and feedback tolerance accounted to some extent for differences in perceived adequacy of feedback, willingness to improve, and affect.
