Moods Of Outdoor Short Course Participants, Chris Cashel Jan 1994

Moods Of Outdoor Short Course Participants, Chris Cashel

Research in Outdoor Education

A purpose of this study was to demon­strate the cycle of mood states displayed by outdoor short course participants. It was hy­pothesized that participants on short courses experience fluctuations of mood states. Moods would follow a predictable cycle and will complete a range of moods. Mood states were assessed using the POMS (McNair, Lorr, & Droppleman, 1971).

Participation In Heterogeneous And Homogeneous Groups : A Theoretical Integration, M Fişek, Joseph Berger, Robert Norman Jul 1991

Participation In Heterogeneous And Homogeneous Groups : A Theoretical Integration, M Fişek, Joseph Berger, Robert Norman

Dartmouth Scholarship

This article presents a theoretical formulation that integrates, within the framework of expectation states theory, theories of the emergence of power-and-prestige orders in status-heterogeneous and homogeneous task-oriented groups. A model based on this theoretical formulation is constructed and used for predicting participation rates in open interaction settings. The article explores the fit of the model to data from both status-heterogeneous and status- homogeneous groups.
