This paper studies the effect of teacher expectations on essay grades in an experimental setting. For this purpose, [the researchers] randomly assign Turkish or German first names to a set of essays so that some teachers believe a given essay was written by a German native pupil, whereas others believe it was written by a pupil of Turkish origin. [They] find that the same essays obtain significantly worse grades and lower secondary school recommendations when bearing a Turkish sounding name. (Orig.).
