The
correlation between growth-mindset interventions and academic
achievement is limited, according to a recent meta-analysis by
researchers from Case Western Reserve University.
They looked at more than 229 studies and found that such interventions
had a very small effect overall and had limited benefits for high-risk
students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. Other education interventions, such as reducing class sizes or increased teacher training, had much larger effects.
