Abstract
Implications of Loevinger's theory of ego development suggest that students' levels of ego development should be related to their perceptions of instruction. Using the responses of 144 undergraduate females to a measure of ego development and to measures of perceptions of six instructional modes, the authors investigated the relationship. None was found; however, further research which eliminates some of the defects of the present research seems warranted.
