You might do a search in ERIC's database of you're interested in finding the exact research.

Will,
Which one would you say is generally the cause and which is the effect? I think there are definite advantages to sitting in front. In my education though, when seating arrangements were optional (continuing in grad school today) the students that sat in front were the ones that would have gotten good grades anyway because they were engaging in other constructive behavior (like note-taking and handing in their homework on time). I am really curious about your take on this since you are studying it.
