The purpose of the present study was to report on the development of a new instrument, the faculty beliefs about grades inventory (FBGI). The instrument contains three scales. The first scale measures college faculty members' attitudes toward norm and criterion - referenced grading. The second and third scales measure attitudes toward the sorting and selection function of grades Two hundred forty - three faculty members from two research universities in the midwest completed the FBGI. Results showed scores for two scales that had satisfactory internal consistency reliabilities (0,86 and 0,83), reliability for scores on the third scale was only 0,66. The scale measuring attitudes toward norm and criterion referenced grading correlated from 0,52 to 0,69 with self - reported use of norm and criterion referenced grading methods. Although a more favorable attitude toward norm - referenced grading was associated with a belief in the sorting and selection function on grades (r = 0,39 between the first two scales), results suggested theses are two conceptually distinct constructs.
