摘要：In this study, the authors examined the views of 171 college students concerning their best and poorest college professors. In a multi-stage conversion mixed analysis design, students' stories of their best and poorest college professors were thematically analysed, resulting in 15 dominant themes for their best college professors and 12 dominant themes for their poorest college professors. After conducting frequency analyses, inferential statistics were conducted to ascertain whether statistically significant differences were present in endorsed themes as a function of ethnicity and generation status. Though Hispanic and White participants did not differ in their endorsement of themes, first-generation college students endorsed fewer themes for their poorest college professor than did non-first-generation college students. Linkages of our findings with the extant literature are provided.
