The purpose of this study is to examine the relationships between achievement goal orientations and Learning Strategies. The sample of study consists of 350 public high school students (135 males and 215 females, mean age: 17 ± 0.65) from two high schools in Kerman province of Iran selected by random multistage cluster sampling method. In this…

Rowtho, Vikash – Higher Education Studies, 2017
Undergraduate student dropout is gradually becoming a global problem and the 39 Small Islands Developing States (SIDS) are no exception to this trend. The purpose of this research was to develop a method that can be used for early detection of students who are at-risk of performing poorly in their undergraduate studies. A sample of 279 students…

Purpose: The purpose of the present research was to test how behavioral regulations are mediated between basic psychological needs and psychological well-being and ill-being in a sample of team-sport coaches. Based on self-determination theory, we hypothesized a model where satisfaction and thwarting of the basic psychological needs predicted…

Soine, Karen M. – ProQuest LLC, 2011
This primary purpose of the study was to expand the work of Garet, Porter, Desimone, Birman, and Yoon (2001) by creating and psychometrically testing an instrument designed to measure teachers' perceptions of characteristics of professional development. Elementary teachers (n = 406) from five school districts in Washington State participating in a…

Morris, John D. – 1978
Several advantages to the use of factor scores as independent variables in a multiple regression equation were found. To help select the most desirable type of factor score on which to calculate a regression equation, computer-based Monte Carlo methods were used to compare the predictive accuracy upon replication of regression of five…

Moreno, Kathleen E.; And Others – 1983
The relationship between selected subtests from the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) and corresponding subtests administered as computerized adaptive tests (CAT) was investigated using a sample of Marine recruits. Results showed that the CAT subtest scores correlated as well with initial ASVAB scores as did ASVAB retest scores,…

Peer reviewedBertram, Francis D.; And Others – Multiple Linear Regression Viewpoints, 1979
The purpose of this study was to use multivariate techniques in a federally-regulated validation study, and compare the results obtained from zero-order correlations and multiple correlations with the results obtained using factor scores and canonical correlation. The subjects consisted of 51 applicants for the position of patrolman. (Author/CTM)

Peer reviewedMorris, John D. – American Educational Research Journal, 1979
Computer-based Monte Carlo methods compared the predictive accuracy upon replication of regression of five complete and four incomplete factor score estimation methods. Prediction on incomplete factor scores showed better double cross-validated prediction accuracy than on complete scores. The unique unit-weighted factor score was superior among…

Tan, James A.; Hall, Rosalie J.; Boyce, Carol – Human Resource Development Quarterly, 2003
Reactions to training programs tend to be poor predictors of training success, yet most training programs are evaluated based solely on trainee reactions. In this study, we proposed that distinguishing between affective and cognitive employee reactions may improve the prediction of trainee learning. Our results indicated that cognitive employee…

Peer reviewedVernon, Philip A. – Intelligence, 1983
This study investigated the relationship between measures of speed of cognitive information processing and intelligence test scores. Cognitive processing measures were significantly related to IQ scores. Reaction time tests measure cognitive operations basic to intelligence, and individual differences in intelligence are partly due to variability…

Butler, Susan R.; And Others – 1983
The purpose of the present longitudinal study was to determine how well a broad, comprehensive battery of tests administered in kindergarten predicts reading achievement in elementary school grades 1 through 6. The test variables were reduced to six predictive factors by factor analysis, and these, together with the variables, Child's Sex and…

MCDONALD, KEITH H. – 1964
TO DETERMINE THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS (SES) AND MEASURES OF ACADEMIC MOTIVATION, APTITUDE, AND ACHIEVEMENT, A SAMPLE OF 4,200 11TH-GRADE CAUCASIAN STUDENTS FROM NINE MICHIGAN HIGH SCHOOLS WAS STUDIED. THE EXPERIMENT TESTED TWO NULL HYPOTHESES--(1) THERE IS NO RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SES AND AN OBJECTIVE MEASURE OF MOTIVATION, AND…

Borich, Gary D. – 1972
Statistical procedures are presented for determining ordinal and disordinal aptitude-treatment interactions with linear and curvilinear data. The paper presents a method for testing the homogeneity of group regressions for a single aptitude and provides models for expanding this test to linear and curvilinear regression planes. Procedures are…

Hathaway, Walter Ennis, Jr. – 1972
The nature of the relations between traditional psychometric and Piagetian instruments is analyzed, in order to provide information relevant to the question of which type of test or combination of them will provide the most useful information to those seeking to construct and maintain optimal learning environments. Four hypotheses are posed: (1)…
