Cover Story: We investigated whether parents’ and teachers’ evaluations of children’s intellectual investment would predict a change in children’s need for cognition (NFC) over one year. A total of 565 third-graders, 452 parents, and 39 teachers were surveyed in 2021 and 2022. Longitudinal data were analyzed by means of latent change score models. Changes in the teachers’ evaluations and the children’s cognitive engagement differed between the children. However, there was no relation between the parents’ or teachers’ assessments and the change in the children’s NFC. The change in the teachers’ assessment was negatively related to their initial judgment and the children’s age and positively related to the pupils’ fluid intelligence. View this paper
