Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social problems in many domains, including health, education, social relationships, and the workplace, have their origins in human behavior. The documented links between behavior and social problems have compelled governments and organizations to prioritize and mobilize efforts to develop effective, evidence-based means to promote adaptive behavior change. In recognition of this impetus, The Handbook of Behavior Change provides comprehensive coverage of contemporary theory, research, and practice on behavior change. It summarizes current evidence-based approaches to behavior change in chapters authored by leading theorists, researchers, and practitioners from multiple disciplines, including psychology, sociology, behavioral science, economics, philosophy, and implementation science. It is the go-to resource for researchers, students, practitioners, and policy makers looking for current knowledge on behavior change and guidance on how to develop effective interventions to change behavior.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study is to examine student self-efficacy where self-efficacy refers to a student's belief in his or her capacity to engage specific behaviors that were expected by faculty to be necessary to achieve specific learning outcomes through a program employing Nexus Learning. Nexus Learning, the theoretical basis of which is constructivism, was initiated at Philadelphia University located in Southeast Pennsylvania to design and deliver a collaborative bachelor's degree in a Design, Engineering, or Commerce study program. The study employs a quantitative longitudinal research design to examine students' perceptions of their performance of one or more of 24 specific behaviors that were expected by faculty to contribute to achieving one or more of seven specific learning outcomes. Quantitative survey data of student selfefficacy on their achievements, collected by the University from a student survey administered over a three-year educational program, were analyzed comparing year one to year three. The academic learning perception gap (ALPG) concept was developed as one potential explanation for the counterintuitive findings in that all behaviors and learning outcomes decreased from year one to year three. This concept proposes that individuals perceive their self-efficacy in relation to self-concept.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "More than any other year, the first year poses attrition hazards that institutions must counteract. Studies show that if students make it through their first year in college successfully, the chances of them persisting to their second year improves significantly. Thus, emphasis on first-year success has been and continues to be central to the work of college administrators, faculty, and staff. Research on the first-year seminar has found that participation in these courses positively impacts student retention and academic performance. Furthermore, the literature supports that high academic self-efficacy increases academic performance and persistence in college. Also, high social self-efficacy facilitates a successful social and academic transition to the college environment. However, additional research is needed to determine if self-efficacy is cultivated within the first-year seminar. Thus, the purpose of this quantitative, quasi-experimental study is to investigate if participation in FYS 100 positively influences first-year students' academic and social self-efficacy. Social cognitive theory was the theoretical framework that guided this study. The researcher used the College Self-Efficacy Inventory (CSEI) to measure the constructs of academic and social self-efficacy. Results of the repeated measures ANOVA analyses showed that participation in FYS 100 did not contribute significantly to differences in students' academic self-efficacy and there was no significant interaction between participation in FYS 100 and various demographic variables such as gender, race/ethnicity, and first-generation status on the average academic or social self-efficacy scores of first-year students. One repeated measures ANOVA analysis, however, showed that participation in FYS 100 contributed significantly to differences in students' social self-efficacy scores. Finally, a bivariate correlation analysis was conducted using students' post-course academic self-efficacy scores and final grades in FYS 100 for fall 2016 and showed that there was not a positive statistically significant correlation between the two variables. This study expands the body of literature that addresses how the first-year seminar positively impacts first-year students. Future research suggestions are presented and implications for educational practice are discussed."--Abstract from author supplied metadata.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this 1994 classic work on student retention, Vincent Tinto synthesizes far-ranging research on student attrition and on actions institutions can and should take to reduce it. The key to effective retention, Tinto demonstrates, is in a strong commitment to quality education and the building of a strong sense of inclusive educational and social community on campus. He applies his theory of student departure to the experiences of minority, adult, and graduate students, and to the situation facing commuting institutions and two-year colleges. Especially critical to Tinto’s model is the central importance of the classroom experience and the role of multiple college communities.
