Pre-Test Assessment, Thomas Berry Jun 2008

Pre-Test Assessment, Thomas Berry

Publications – Dreihaus College of Business

Pre-tests are a non-graded assessment tool used to determine pre-existing subject knowledge. Typically pre-tests are administered prior to a course to determine knowledge baseline, but here they are used to test students prior to topical material coverage throughout the course. While counterintuitive, the pre-tests cover material the student is not expected to know, but serve as a motivational tool and a road map for the students, resulting in improved course performance.


Trust And Investments Across Cultures, Thomas Berry, Omur Suer Mar 2008

Trust And Investments Across Cultures, Thomas Berry, Omur Suer

Publications – Dreihaus College of Business

This study uses survey data to examine notions of trust relative to investments and perceived risk. Rather than using nation cross-sectional household survey data we target a specific group across four distinct cultures. We survey graduate business students in four countries (Turkey, Bahrain, Czech Republic, and the USA). We attempt to gauge investor perceptions about trust and the potential impact of trust on equity investing. The groups are fairly homogeneous in terms of education and relative social and economic status leaving cultural differences as the main source of observed response differences.
