Book excerpt: A major problem of this study was to assess a model for predicting attitudes and behavior of vocational teacher trainees toward handicapped learners. A second problem was to determine whether or not both attitudes and behavior of vocational teacher trainees toward handicapped learners could be changed. The sample for this study consisted of 63 university students preparing for certification to teach in four vocational education service areas. The subjects were randomly assigned to groups according to the Solomon Four Group design. The independent variables included in the study were classified as: (1) structural factors (sex, father's occupation, mother's occupation, father's education, mother's education, area of residence, vocational education service area, and previous association); (2) significant other influence; (3) self-reflexive activity; and (4) other related attitudes. When behavior toward handicapped learners was considered the dependent variable, behavior was not considered in the analysis. Path analysis, using multiple linear regression, was used to test the hypothesized causal model for predicting attitudes and behavior. Analysis of variance and chi-square were used to determine the effectiveness of an intervention process. The process consisted of a panel presentation by three handicapped persons in changing either attitudes or behavior of vocational teacher trainees toward handicapped individuals. The hypothesized causal model for predicting attitudes and behavior of vocational teacher trainees toward handicapped individuals was partially supported. In this study the measured attitude did not predict the measured behavior. The literature on attitude serving as a predictor of behavior is equivocal. Significant other influence was predicted to have the most influence upon attitude. Significant other influence was defined as individuals who exercise major influence over the attitudes and behavior of others. The results of this study indicated that significant other influence was not only a predictor of attitude but also of behavior. Self-reflexive activity was defined as behavior in which individuals confront themselves in responding to some object and make an inference about themselves based upon that confrontation. A significant relationship did not exist between this variable and any other variable except the structural factor, father's occupation. The failure of this variable to predict the dependent variables as theorized may have been due, in part, to measurement error. Other related attitudes was defined as a group of similar attitudes which may serve as a filter category to ego concerning ego's attitude toward a specific object. The results indicated that other related attitudes may predict attitudes toward handicapped individuals. The results indicated that only certain structural factors were predictors of either attitudes or behavior of vocational teacher trainees toward handicapped individuals. Those factors were mother's occupation, mother's education and sex of the subject. These findings were not considered to be of great importance since teacher educators are unable to alter these factors to bring about either the desired attitudes or behavior on the part of future vocational teachers. The particular intervention process used in this study was ineffective in changing either attitude or behavior. Since significant others were shown to be influential upon behavior, however, it is recommended that further research utilizing significant other influence be attempted.

To identify all the sources of information, and to list documents that discuss research on teachers’ attitudes. It does not include an assessment of the quality of the research reported in the listed documents, however, the value is in its comprehensiveness. Users of the bibliography can locate the listed studies and then evaluate the studies using criteria relevant to their individual purposes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Purpose) The purpose of this study was to determine whether there was a difference between the perceptions of district vocational directors and high school building administrators concerning the willingness of vocational educators to make changes in their programs. (Methodology) A mailed survey was sent to 67 district directors of vocational education and the 431 high school principals in the 67 Florida school districts. The survey instrument was designed in two parts. The first section required ratings of vocational educators' stages of planning, development, and implementation of innovative instructional strategies and innovative program initiatives. The items reflected the seven innovations that members of the Florida Department of Education agreed were those that were being promoted for adoption in Florida high schools. The items for the second part of the instrument were based on the dimensions of the Attitude toward Change conceptual framework. A return rate of 68.8 percent was obtained. Data analysis was accomplished using a t-test to determine whether there was a significant difference between the mean ratings given to the vocational educators by the vocational directors and the principals of the high schools where the programs were housed. (Results) The means for each item on the instrument as well as the means for each scale score was explored to determine the level of the adoption of the innovation or the extent to which the respondent groups reported that vocational educators had positive or negative attitudes toward change. (Conclusions) The data indicate that both administrative groups believe that the vocational educators have a positive attitude toward change and have made substantial progress in implementing changes that have been promoted by the Florida Department of Education. Both of these administrative groups see vocational educators as having a positive attitude toward planning, implementing, and maintaining programs after changes have been made with the Principal group being more positive than the Vocational Director group. This raises the question of whether vocational educators are more critical of other vocational educators than are non-vocational administrators. It follows then that the image that the general public has of vocational educators as being out of date and not wanting to change could be a result of this internal criticism. (Recommendations) It is suggested that a study be done to answer the question as to whether vocational programs are up to date and whether appropriate research is being conducted to determine what changes need to be made in the programs.
