Evaluation of a Second Generation Dissemination of a Local Improvement Project: Implications for Theory and Procedures
The article reports three second generation dissemination evaluation studies of the secondary component of a locally developed improvement project. The evaluations focused on whether a change model validated in the originating school system could be successfully disseminated. Results indicate successful adoption was possible when adopting school systems patterned their implementation of the change model after the originating school system impleme…

Social Studies Project Evaluation: Case Study and Recommendations
Development and Initial Validation of an Instrument To Measure Political Attitudes
The Opinionnaire on Political Institutions and Participation (OPIP) was designed to measure six dimensions of the overall con struct of political attitude. Three studies were conducted to deter mine the validity and reliability of the instrument. Validation and cross-validation studies indicated that the instrument was construct valid for measuring political attitudes. The reliability study revealed that the overall test-retest correlation was mo…
Experiments in the Validity of Preservice Teacher Stage Scoring of Moral Thought Statements
Two experiments were conducted to replicate earlier studies of teacher stage scoring ability. In the first experiment the 2 original rater guides created by Kohlberg were compared. In the second experiment the 2 original Kohlberg rater guides were combined and compared to the Porter and Taylor rater guide. In both experiments there was no significant difference between rater guide treatments. Teachers could correctly stage score only 51% of the m…
The Validity of Preservice Teacher Use of Kohlberg's Issue Stage Scoring System
Twenty-two preservice social studies teachers were given background information on Kohlberg's theory of and education program for moral development. Next, the preservice teachers were trained to use one of the rater guides (Heinz Dilemma) in Kohlberg's new Issue Stage Scoring system. Afterwards, the preservice teachers intuitively stage scored 40 moral thought statements and then rater guide stage scored the same 40 moral thought statements. Resu…
Content Influence While Stage Scoring Moral Thought Statements
Two types of test scores were analyzed to examine whether sixty teachers were unable to use Kohlberg's measurement system for determining stages of moral thought because they were stage scoring invalidly on the basis of content. The first type of score represented "intuitive" stage scoring by teachers after they had been exposed to Kohlberg's theory of and program for moral development and while they were using a description of moral stages. The …
An Analysis of Instructional Planning Skills of Social Studies Teacher Trainees
Data were collected from trainees of teacher education institutions with programs designed to instruct trainees to plan to achieve higher level cognitive and affective objectives, use a variety of activities, and develop valid criterion measures. Sixty trainees submitted planned instructional units. Objectives and questions on the criterion measures were classified as belonging to cognitive or affective domain and level within each domain. Activi…
