Lauren Gibson; Kathryn Stevenson; K. C. Busch; Bethany Cutts; Erin Seekamp; Sarah Krementz – Journal of Environmental Education, 2024
Environmental education often advocates for individual pro-environmental behavior--which, while beneficial to a degree, fails to match the large scale of today's capitalism-fueled socio-ecological challenges. Rather, collective action holds promise as a means for the large-scale changes required in the Capitalocene. These actions can take the…

Pulfrey, Caroline; Durussel, Kevin; Butera, Fabrizio – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2018
"Sharing is caring" the old adage goes, with its implied message that both are morally desirable. But what if it's test answers that students are sharing with their friends? Integrating values, cheating, and in-group bias theory, we hypothesize that adherence to group-loyalty benevolence values--considered as some of the most moral…

In order to train young professionals, instructional methodologies in engineering need not only teach students knowledge, but must also instill the values and teach the behaviors--"competencies" students can demonstrate--required of professional practice. Herein, we focus on understanding the values and behaviors of students with respect…

Barnhardt, Cassie L. – Journal of Higher Education, 2015
Proponents of civic engagement extol the virtues of the college experience for enhancing students' capacities for democratic participation, yet few studies have examined the organizational contexts of such actions.

Kivlighan, Dennis M., Jr.; Kivlighan, D. Martin, III; Cole, Odessa Dorian – Journal of Counseling Psychology, 2012
The group's absence norm, a construct from the applied psychology literature, was used to examine session absences in personal growth groups. Rather than examining the absence norm statically, we modeled it dynamically as a time-varying covariate (Tasca et al., 2010). We also examined moderation by modeling the interaction of the absence norm and…

Hazari, Sunil; Johnson, Barbara – Decision Sciences Journal of Innovative Education, 2007
There is paucity of original research that explains phenomena related to content organization and site design of educational Web sites.

Somech, Anit; Ron, Ifat – Educational Administration Quarterly, 2007
Purpose: The success of schools fundamentally depends on teachers' willingness to go above and beyond the call of duty, namely, to exhibit organizational citizenship behaviors (OCBs).

Lent, Robert W.; Schmidt, Janet; Schmidt, Linda – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 2006
A measure of collective efficacy was developed and administered to undergraduates working in project teams in engineering courses.
