Patrick O’Neill; Jessica Pugel; Elizabeth C. Long; D. Max Crowley; Taylor Scott – Evidence & Policy: A Journal of Research, Debate and Practice, 2025
Background: In theory and practice, it is understood that personal relationships play a role in the effectiveness of translational models that bridge research and policy. These models can be made more efficient by understanding factors impacting relationships between policy-making players and third-party knowledge brokers. Aims and objectives:…

Tekin, Oguzhan – Teacher Development, 2023
Teachers' self-efficacy beliefs and research behaviors are critical to both professional development and the quality of instruction. Thus, teachers are expected to accept and apply the research findings generated by educational researchers to solve a classroom, student, or instructional issue. This article aimed to determine teachers'…

Ayse Kazanci Tinmaz; Ferudun Sezgin – SAGE Open, 2023
Research literacy is essential for teachers to practice their profession based on research-based knowledge. The present study aimed to develop and validate the Research Literacy Scale (RLS) and investigate teachers' research literacy based on the Theory of Planned Behavior and research utilization models. The data was collected from teachers…

Haecker, Bonnie M.; Lane, Forrest C.; Zientek, Linda R. – Journal of School Leadership, 2017
Research has explored the use of evidence-based practices within schools but less is known about evidence-based decision-making among school district central office administrators. This study explored how individual and school-level characteristics of administrators were related to the implementation of evidence-based practices. Findings suggested…

Brown, Chris; Zhang, Dell – Cambridge Journal of Education, 2017
While beneficial, the consistent and regular use of evidence to improve teaching and learning is proving difficult to achieve in practice. This paper attempts to shed new light on this issue by examining the question: "If using evidence to inform teaching practice is rational behaviour, why aren't all teachers engaged in it?" It first…

Mayton, Michael R.; Menendez, Anthony L.; Wheeler, John J.; Carter, Stacy L.; Chitiyo, Morgan – Journal of Research in Special Educational Needs, 2013
The number of Social Stories[TM] studies and reviews has increased in recent years, yet concerns regarding quality and effect sizes continue to be expressed. With the emphasis on evidence-based practices (EBPs) for the education and treatment of people with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), this issue becomes of paramount importance as…

Lysenko, Larysa V.; Abrami, Philip C.; Dagenais, Christian; Janosz, Michel – Canadian Journal of Education, 2014
This study investigates the predictors of school practitioners' (N = 2,425) use of educational research. The suggested model explained significantly but modestly the infrequent use of educational research by practitioners. Of the four factors in the study, "opinions about research" had the most explanatory power. The results are…

Harris, Douglas N.; Rutledge, Stacey A. – Teachers College Record, 2010
Background/Context: A half-century ago, scholars of teaching observed that there was a disconnect between theory and evidence. This problem remains. Although there is great deal of scholarly activity about teacher effectiveness and quality, discussion of theory is largely separate from empirical evidence. In addition, research on teaching is based…

Landry, Rejean; Lamari, Moktar; Amara, Nabil – Public Administration Review, 2003
Of 833 Canadian government officials surveyed, 12% always/often and 16% never receive relevant university research; 53% of research results have rarely or never influenced decisions. Multivariate regression analyses identified these predictors of research use: users' efforts to find and adapt research, organizational context, and researcher-user…

Garland, Kathleen; Rike, Galen E. – Journal of Education for Library and Information Science, 1987
This study examined the relationship between scholarly publication by faculty teaching in library and information science programs and 18 selected variables. Six variables were found to be predictors of faculty productivity: highest degree earned, size of faculty, years elapsed from bachelors's to highest degree, program type, prestige of program,…

Disch, James G.; Morrow, James R., Jr. – 1979
The use of various physiological tests and measurements accurately predicts the performance ratings of female athletes. A study involving 180 female intercollegiate volleyball players, 142 female intercollegiate basketball players, and 115 female college-age nonathletes yielded a set of statistical differentials concerning arm length, lean weight…

Arnold, Fred; And Others – International Migration Review, 1989
Explores the effect of "chaining" through the petitioning of relatives on the demand for future immigrant visas by Koreans and Filipinos. Presents analyses that derive different multipliers that may be used in estimating the effects of chain migration, including a Theoretical Multiplier, an Adjusted Multiplier, and a Projected…

Tittle, Carol Kehr – 1978
There is a continuing need in evaluation research for the establishment of a relationship between evaluation findings and decision making. A method is proposed for a particular situation: annual funding decisions for projects in a large grant program in vocational education. Outcome and predictive impact variables were ranked by three groups of…

EdSource, 2010
This study contributes to the field by identifying a broad range of traditional and newer middle grade policies and practices, and determining in California which of these differentiate higher- from lower-performing schools serving similar student populations, with performance measured by the state's standards-based tests. Based on a sample of 303…
