Download or read book Understanding Belief Attitude and Behavior written by Brandt W. Pryor and published by IAP. This book was released on 2022-02-01 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a step-by-step guide for correctly applying Fishbein and Ajzen’s theories which together form “ . . the dominant conceptual framework for predicting, explaining, and changing human social behavior” (Ajzen, 2012). Evaluators and educational researchers, however, have often made less than optimal use of the theory of reasoned action, and the later theory of planned behavior, to understand, measure, and influence beliefs, attitudes, and behavior. This book is written expressly for investigators who are not trained in attitude theory and measurement. It provides examples from the fields of evaluation and educational research at each step, including many from the author’s applications. This book offers clear conceptual and operational definitions of belief, attitude, behavior, and other variables that are components of the theories. Figures illustrate relations among the variables. One chapter critically reviews efforts to apply the theories in evaluation and educational research, using positive and negative examples. The author has 30 years’ experience in evaluation and research, a doctorate in education, and training in attitude theory and measurement with Martin Fishbein. The author’s dissertation study was the first successful application of the theory of reasoned action to the issue of participation in adult education, and prompted others in that field to apply the theory. Praise for Understanding Beliefs, Attitude, and Behavior: "This book is invaluable for anyone interested in understanding, evaluating, and changing behaviors I in education. It presents the theories of reasoned action and planned behavior in clear and precise terms. It provides educational researchers and evaluators with the tools they need to pursue an understanding and assessment of attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors." David Fetterman, President and CEO Fetterman & Associates San Jose, CA "Although student and teacher attitudes are an area of intensive study in STEM and other educational fields, many studies lack a rigorous theoretical approach. Pryor's new book offers a lucid account of the theory of reasoned action and its application to studies of attitudes, intentions, and behaviors in educational settings. The ideas have transformed my own approach to studying the impact of our STEM interventions on pre-service teacher attitudes and their future intentions for their own classroom. I think this volume is a 'must-read' or STEM education researchers and practitioners." Sharon Locke, Director Center for STEM Research, Education, and Outreach Southern Illinois University Edwardsville "Educators are often concerned with the beliefs, attitudes, and behavior of students, teachers, administrators, school board members, policy makers, or even voters. However, most educational researchers, are not trained in attitude theory and measurement. This book is written expressly for these evaluators and researchers to help them properly measure, understand, and influence attitudes. The book guides one, step by step, through Fishbein and Ajzen’s theory. With a focus on practitioners, it has many examples and figures to help people understand this theory and apply it to their work."

This book was released on 2023-04-01 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Good quality assessment is instrumental in determining a student's future goal and career path, besides impacting all stakeholders of the school system. The overarching goal of ‘National Education Policy 2020’ is that of harnessing human resources (teacher and taught) to create value propositions (life skills, digital literacy and employment fitness). The Covid-19 Pandemic jump started the teaching community to use digital technology extensively, whether it was for teaching, assessment or evaluation. The process of measurement, evaluation and assessment is interlinked with curriculum and teaching-learning methods enabling learning outcomes to be determined. An effective school system cannot be built where the students are examined on the basis of mere paper and pencil tests. Today schools have access to the use of a range of techniques for student's assessment, teacher performance, school's effectiveness and the evaluation of the school system as a whole. The present edition encompasses traditional offline mode along with online and hybrid modes, thus providing an in-depth knowledge and understanding of measurement, evaluation and statistics in education. All the useful themes stay intact although they have been reorganized and simplified in places. The References at the end of each chapter have been updated. Technology has drastically changed our lives. Smartphones, cloud computing, social media and videoconferencing are but a few of the innovations which have contributed to the successful use of digital technology in teaching-learning. All educational institutions had to adopt hybrid/blended modes of teaching and learning. This necessitated a need for teachers to be trained in the use of digital platforms and online tools. Chapter 17 takes a look at selected tools currently in use in many schools and colleges. The book is intended for the students of B.Ed, M.Ed and M.A. (Education). The book will also prove to be of immense value to school administrators, counselors and all other stakeholders of education.

Download or read book Understanding and Prediction written by S. Nowak and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the more characteristic features of contemporary sociology is an increasing interest in theories. More and more theories are being developed in various areas of social investigation; we observe also an increasing number of verificational studies aimed primarily toward the verification of various theories. The essays presented in this volume deal with theories too, but they approach this problem from a methodological perspective. There fore it seems worthwhile in the preface to this volume to make a kind of general declaration about the author's aims and his approach to the subject of his interest, and about his view of the role of methodological reflection in the development of sciences. First let me say what methodology cannot do. It cannot be a substitute for the formulation of substantive theories, nor can it substitute for the empirical studies which confirm or reject such theories. Therefore its impact upon the development of any science, including the social sciences, is only indirect, by its undertaking the analysis of research tools and rules of scientific procedures. It can also propose certain standards for scientific procedures, but the application of these standards is the domain of substan tive researchers, and it is the substantive researchers who ultimately develop any science. Nevertheless the potential impact-of methodological reflection, even if only indirect, should not be underestimated.

Download or read book Employee Turnover in the Public Sector written by Oscar Miller, Jr. and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-06-26 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this title, first published in 1996, the author uses the locus of control personality construct to show how workers who believe they can influence life events (internals) perceive and evaluate work conditions differently than workers who believe that life events are beyond their control (externals). The author also develops a social exchange model of quitting which takes advantage of the positive (job reward) and negative (job cost) qualities inherent in work conditions. Workers tend to quit their jobs when job costs outweigh job rewards when better alternatives exist. Moreover, personality interacts with employees’ evaluation of job costs and rewards and quitting behaviour. This book will be of interest to students of business studies and human resource management.
