A meta-analysis of virtual reality training programs
The multiphase optimization strategy (Most) and the sequential multiple assignment randomized trial (SMART)
Current methodologies in training evaluation studies largely employ a single method entitled random confirmatory trials, prompting several concerns. First, practitioners and researchers often analyze the effectiveness of their entire omnibus training, rather than the individual elements or identifiable components of the training program. This slows the testing of theory and development of optimal training programs. Second, a common training is ty…
Forced Distribution Method of Performance Evaluation
The forced distribution method of performance evaluation derives its name from the fact that those responsible for providing evaluations, the raters, are “forced” to distribute ratings for the individuals being evaluated into a “prespecified” performance distribution.
Bad to the Bone
Although destructive leader behavior is an increasingly popular area of study, little is known about its content or dimensionality at a broad level. In this study, an inventory of destructive behaviors was developed through inductive and deductive methods. Across multiple studies, three behavioral dimensions emerged and were used to create a measure of the construct. Results provide support for the instrument’s construct and criterion validity an…
Using effect size measures to reform the determination of adverse impact in equal employment litigation
Frank Landy (1942–2010)
The Attitudinal and Behavioral Openness Scale
A Multiple Group Confirmatory Factor Analysis Evaluation of Teachers' Work Related Perceptions and Reactions
The examination of teachers' job-related reactions has recently become a popular topic of research investigations. However, strictly focusing on teachers' affective reactions (e.g., satisfaction) may provide a somewhat limited view with regard to improving teacher attitudes. Research has demonstrated that job perceptions act as a precursor to job satisfaction. Therefore, in order to obtain a broader view of teacher attitudes, one should assess bo…
