The universityadministration uses such evaluations to solve agency problems related to the selection and motivation ofteachers, in a context in which neither the types of teachers, nor their effort, can be observed precisely(Becker & Watts, 1999).Truly speaking, students’ evaluations are useful during the hiring process of professors. Particularly ithelps to ascertain the situation whether to promote a professor or not. Some of the educational institutionswhere more research is emphasized on professors, the administration relies fully on students’ evaluationof teaching (Becker & Watts, 1999).Administrators from educational institutions have struggled for a long time with
