Researchers conducted a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the impact of a growth mindset intervention on educational attainment among secondary school students. The study involved 202 public secondary schools in the Province of Salta, with Grade 12 students participating in the intervention. Schools were randomly assigned to either the treatment group, where students received information about the potential to develop intelligence through practice, or the control group, which received no such intervention.
