Reciprocal Suppression and Interaction Effects of Age with Undergraduate Grades and Gre on Graduate Performance in a College of Education

A validity study is presented in which GRE scores, undergraduate grades and age are used to predict first semester grades in graduate school in a college of education. Results suggest that age interacts with other variables in the predictor set to produce underpredictions for older students with low to moderate entering credentials. Conversely, grades tend to be underpredicted for younger students with high credentials. Further, three instances of reciprocal suppression are cited in which age is involved. As such, the complex relationship between age and other variables should not be ignored in validity studies dealing with graduate students entering the field of education.
