Abstract
Growth and fixed mindsets have been extensively researched in educational settings over the past three decades. However, progress is hampered by measurement problems. We developed the ULTrA survey which measures mindset, universality, and brilliance beliefs more accurately and sensitively than previous measures. ULTrA Survey predicts outcomes that previous scales miss.
