Why Do Women Not Use the Bathroom? Women’s Attitudes and Beliefs on Using Public Restrooms
There are a variety of factors and influences, both internal and external, that may impact an individual’s public toileting experience and may ultimately have repercussions for bladder health. This study sought to identify predominant constructs underlying a women’s attitude towards using restrooms at work, at school, and in public in order to develop a conceptual model incorporating these themes. We performed a secondary analysis of a cross-sect…

Educational Psychology: Contemporary Perspectives
Educational psychology focuses the application of psychology to the understanding of learners and learning environments. This chapter illustrates how the field of educational psychology represents an important area of psychological research, theory, and practice. Five major areas of contemporary research and practice in educational psychology are described and include: cognitive and regulatory contributions to learning, development and instructio…
Future Perspectives in Educational Psychology
Educational psychology is a thriving field of practice and research that has increased our understanding of personal and situational variables that impact learning and successful teaching and schooling practices. In the decade since the last edition of this handbook, the scope of work represented by educational psychology researchers has continued to expand, leading to many significant advances in theory, research, and practice. The purpose of th…
The Civic Gospel: A Political Cartography of Christianity
This book is a result of the times in which we are living. These times demand a response. When the authors began to write this book, it was not popular to dissent against the Bush administration. In fact, dissent was and still is equated with terrorism. Now, it might seem that the tide is turning and maybe after the 2008 election some of this nightmare we have been experiencing will change. At least that is the optimistic view. But there are smal…

Development of reliable and valid short forms of the marlowe-crowne social desirability scale
Developed, on the basis of responses from 608 undergraduate students to the 33-item Marlowe-Crowne Social Desirability Scale, three short forms of 11, 12, and 13 items. The psychometric characteristics of these three forms and three other short forms developed by Strahan and Gerbasi (1972) were investigated and comparisons made. Results, in the form of internal consistency reliability, item factor loadings, short form with Marlowe-Crowne total sc…
The Reliability and Factorial Validity of a Scale for Measuring Teachers' Attitudes Towards Mainstreaming
This paper reports the development of a scale entitled the Educational Attitude Survey (EAS) that was designed to measure teachers' attitudes toward the mainstreaming of handicapped children into regular classrooms. Consisting of 16 items, the EAS yields scores on two factorially determined subscales as well as a total scale score. The psychometric characteristics of the EAS indicate it to be a reliable and factorially valid measure of teachers' …
Initial Development and Validation of the Academic Self-Concept Scale
The Academic Self-Concept Scale (ASCS) was developed as a measure of an academic facet of general self-concept in college stu dents. The initial item pool consisted of 59 items worded to conform to a 4-point Likert-type response format. On the basis of responses from 427 college students, the final form of the ASCS was con structed consisting of 40 items with an estimated internal con sistency reliability of .91. Validity was established by corre…
Development and Validation of a Scale to Measure Learning-Related Classroom Behaviors
The Classroom Behavior Rating Scale (CBRS) was developed to provide school psychologists with a measure of learning-related classroom behaviors of elementary school pupils. The initial item pool consisted of 100 behavioral statements reflecting learning-related behaviors (e.g., attention, persistence) delineated within various educational environments (e.g., large group instruction, seat work). On the basis of teacher evaluations of each item wit…
Relationship of Affective Characteristics of Students to Their Evaluations of Instructors
This research was designed to assess the relationships between each of four measures of student affective characteristics and students' evaluations of college instructors. Sixty-six students completed measures of locus of control, achievement motivation, anxiety, and social desirability as well as provided end-of-term evaluations of their instructors. A significant relationship (p
The Utility of Multiple-Choice Test Formats With Mildly Retarded Adolescents
The major concern of this study was to determine if mildly mentally retarded secondary school students could respond to a verbally presented multiple-choice test of social and personal knowledge. This was of concern due to the lack of standardized group tests to measure classroom learning within the area of special education. The results indicated that the students were capable of responding appropriately to verbally presented two and three alter…
Social Desirability of Achievement Motivation
The need to achieve, sometimes referred to as achievement motivation, has been studied as a measurable construct by a number of investigators (1, 3, 5. 6). The validity of these measures has been questioned (4, 5). The current investigation focused on one possible reason for the lack of validity, the susceptibility to social desirability response styles. The hypothesis was that a substantial amount of method variance due to item characteristics m…
