An empirical model was developed to represent the organization of the value-attitude system as postualted by Rokeach, and the model was used to determine the internal consistency of the system, its structure and components, and the extent to which the system permitted the prediction of attitudes from values.

The project summarized by this report involved a preliminary design of a model for estimating and predicting the quantity and composition of solid waste and a determination of its feasibility. The novelty of the prediction model is that it estimates and predicts on the basis of knowledge of materials and quantities before they become a part of the…

Enderlein, Thomas E. – 1974
The purpose of this study was to develop a theoretical model for predicting employment satisfaction one year after graduation, using 9th-12th grade inschool variables of socioeconomic status, curriculum choice, and achievement. The independent variables used were chosen from the three psychological domains: cognitive, affective, and psychomotor.…

The purposes of this study were (1) to test whether the occupational preferences of senior psychology majors could be predicted using a within-subjects analysis of Vroom's model; (2) to examine the predictive validity of valence and instrumentality measures, and (3) to compare the predictive validity of the weighted and unweighted valence models.…

Peer reviewedEran, Mordechai; Jacobson, Dan – Journal of Gerontology, 1976
Vroom's expectancy theory model to predict older worker's choices between employment or retirement hypothesized that a person's preference would be a function of differences between instrumentality of employment and retirement for attainment of outcomes, multiplied by the valence of each outcome, summed over outcomes. Results supported the…

More than 150 data sets from the 39 participating schools, representing over 19 fields of study, were analyzed. The data confirmed earlier…
