A DBR framework for designing mobile virtual reality learning environments
This paper proposes a design based research (DBR) framework for designing mobile virtual reality learning environments. The application of the framework is illustrated by two design-based research projects that aim to develop more authentic educational experiences and learner-centred pedagogies in higher education. The projects highlight the first two phases of the DBR framework, involving the exploration of mobile virtual reality (VR) to enhance…

Toward a Psychology of Improving Justice: Research on Extending the Equality Principle to Victims of Social Injustice
Data from two quasi‐experimental and two experimental studies of cooperative, equal‐status, interracial contact are presented. The results show increases in favorable beliefs about and liking for Blacks by formerly prejudiced Whites. Such changes are accompanied by greater readiness to extend equality of social benefits (e.g., unsegregated housing, education, and employment) to Black persons. This illustrates one approach to the goal of extending…

Research on Anticipatory Ideological Compliance: Comment on Sargent and Harris
In their paper, “Academic Freedom, Civil Liberties, and SPSSI,” S. Stansfeld Sargent and Benjamin Harris (1986) give an account of the threat to individual liberties that characterized SPSSI's early years. Based to some extent on my personal experience during the post‐World War II peak of this threat (i.e., the era of Senator Joseph McCarthy), I add a brief supplement to Sargent's and Harris's account. I provide a description of initial attempts …

Approaches to Encouraging Conservation Behavior: A Review and Conceptual Framework
This paper introduces a conceptual framework aimed at integrating the conservation behavior literature and facilitating the comparison of findings across studies. Within this framework, conservation behavior is approached from the theoretical orientations of attitude change, behavior modification and behavior maintenance. Seven commonly used approaches to encouraging conservation behavior are described in terms of these perspectives. Illustrative…

A Short Scale for the Measurement of Change in Verbal Racial Attitude 1
A multidimensional racial attitude inventory has been developed through several factor and cluster analyses of attitudinal statements. This inventory has been validated against attitudinal criterion groups. The purpose of this research was to adapt it from an agree-disagree answer format to a rating format potentially more sensitive to moderate, self-reported, attitude change. Evidence is presented that this adaptation has been accomplished while…
Dimensions of Verbal Racial Attitudes: Interracial Marriage and Approaches to Racial Equality
The empirical approach to the analysis of attitude organization suggests that verbal racial attitudes are not organized in terms of cognitive, affective, and conative (or behavioral) components but rather in terms of content areas that cross‐cut this structural trichotomy. A racial attitude inventory made up of nine empirically identified dimensions successfully predicted whites' membership in attitudinal criterion groups. In this study two addit…

The Impact of Cooperative Learning Experiences on Cross‐Ethnic Relations and Attitudes
A field experiment examined the effects of cooperative interethnic contact on ethnic relations and attitudes in the setting of newly desegregated junior and senior high schools. Cooperative interethnic contact was induced in the experimental classrooms by means of a teaching method which emphasized the use of small interdependent student work groups composed of white, black, and Mexican‐American students. Results indicated that the interethnic gr…
The field of action research
The scientist who is engaged in action research necessarily adopts the conditional approach to his problems. He cannot be content just to describe the course of events since he wishes to influence their course. There are special difficulties in action research because the scientist's problems are determined by society, their solutions are sought in society, and the solutions must be successfully applied in society. Action research may take 4 diff…

Effect of group success and failure upon interpersonal attraction in cooperating interracial groups
The effect of group success and failure upon interpersonal attraction in cooperating interracial groups was investigated in a 2X2X2 factorially designed experiment. The level of participation in the group's decision making (high or low) and race (black or white) served as the additional independent variables. The 56 military subjects exhibited significantly greater attraction for groupmates under the success as opposed to the failure condition (p…
The effects of personal contact on intergroup relations
The authors point out that physical proximity in itself may not promote harmonious intergroup relations. Many other factors, such as social norms and similarity of goals, play a part.
