Taylor, Rachel Charlotte – Research Papers in Education, 2015
In recent years, there have been concerns in the UK regarding the uptake of particular subjects in post-compulsory education. Whilst entries for Advanced level (A-level) subjects such as media studies have experienced considerable growth, entries for A-level physics have, until recently, been declining, prompting fears of a skills crisis in future…

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…

De Wet, J. J. – 1981
The use of multiple regression in identifying students with learning disabilities was investigated with 281 ninth grade students. Five sets of predictor variables were chosen to predict grade point average in grade 9: verbal and nonverbal IQ, sex, socioeconomic status (SES), and grade point average in grade 7. Five groups of overachievers, normal…

Hsu, Shih-Jang; Roth, Robert E. – Journal of Environmental Education, 1999
Assesses predictors of teachers' responsible environmental behavior (REB). Stepwise multiple-regression analysis showed that most of the parsimonious set of predictors of REB for all teachers included perceived knowledge of environmental-action strategies (KNOW), intention to act (IA), and perceived skill in using environmental-action strategies…

Goldberger, Arthur S.; Cain, Glen G. – 1981
In the study "Public and Private Schools," the conclusions by James Coleman and others that private schools produce higher test scores and do so by employing certain school policies are not valid because the methods and interpretations used in the analysis fall below the standards for social-scientific research. Moreover, the conclusions…

Chang, Gerald Y-S; Brown, James M. – Journal of Studies in Technical Careers, 1983
Fifty-six students from two Minnesota technical institutes were administered the Minnesota Reading Assessment and the Gates-MacGinitie Reading Tests. Statistical analysis indicates that, while the two tests are not identical measures of vocabulary and comprehension, their measures of reading rate and speed are highly correlated. (SK)

Lawrence, William; Brown, Duane – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 1976
A multiple regression procedure was used to develop a further understanding of the relationship of self-concept, intelligence, socioeconomic status, race, and sex to career maturity as measured by the Career Maturity Inventory (CMI). Results further indicated that socioeconomic status and self-concept seem to have a differential effect upon career…
