A Theory-Based Model for Understanding Faculty Intention to Use Students Ratings to Improve Teaching in a Health Sciences Institution in Puerto Rico
Collazo, Andrés A.
Journal of Hispanic Higher Education, v17 n3 p229-248 Jul 2018
A model derived from the theory of planned behavior was empirically assessed for understanding faculty intention to use student ratings for teaching improvement. A sample of 175 professors participated in the study. The model was statistically significant and had a very large explanatory power. Instrumental attitude, affective attitude, perceived capability, and perceived controllability were statistically significant contributors in explaining directly variability in faculty intention. Past use of student ratings-intention relationship was mostly indirect.
