“…Many students express concerns about the fairness of peer assessment (Sluijsmans, Dochy, & Moerkerke, 1999) and students frequently voice that evaluation is a role of the teacher (Brown, Irving, Peterson, & Hirschfeld, 2009;Zhang, 1995). Furthermore, the perceived or actual ability of both assessor and assessee (Kali & Ronen, 2008;Lin, Liu, & Yuan, 2001) appears to affect peer ratings and might have an important effect on both acceptance of peer feedback and application during subsequent performance. The qualification "equal status students" in Topping's (1998) definition might be retained in the sense of age or class"level of students, but there are evidently individual differences that affect perceived status and may impact peer feedback perceptions and subsequent performance.…”
