Research consultations and Dweck's theories of intelligence}, author = {Kelly Safin and Amanda L Folk and Anna Mary Williford}, address = {Chicago}, publisher = {Association of College and Research Libraries}, pages = {388 -- 396}, journal = {ACRL Conference Proceedings}, url = {http://d-scholarship-dev.library.pitt.edu/40279/}, abstract = {Psychologist Carol Dweck identified the fixed and incremental theories of intelligence, which could affect how students navigate the research process, including if they will seek help from a librarian and what they intend to take away from that interaction. This study explores whether students who made research consultation appointments with a librarian subscribed to a particular theory of intelligence in order to provide evidence that can be used to inform and transform our practice.} }
