Characteristics Of Students Who Seek Admission And Registration After The Beginning Of The Academic Term, Janet Vaughan Danley

Theses and Dissertations

Colleges and universities which permit students to apply for admission and/or register for classes after the beginning of the academic term may be adhering to an institutional policy which encourages unrestricted access to all qualified applicants. However, by permitting such students late entry, the late enrolling students, the students who were admitted and registered in a timely manner, the faculty, and the institution may suffer as a result. This study explored one institution's experience with late enrolling students. The students themselves were the primary focus of the study. Faculty and academic advisors who came into contact with the late enrolling …

The Effects Of Counterexplanation And Audit Groups On Fraud Detection, Janne Chung, Gary S. Monroe

Research outputs pre 2011

Prior studies have found that auditors' fraud detection rates are relatively low (Bernardi 1994; Pincus 1991 ). The present study examines whether counterexplaining inaccurate judgments will increase fraud detection rates and whether audit groups can counterexplain more effectively compared to individual auditors. The possible negative effect of counterexplanation is examined by requiring audit groups and individual auditors to counterexplain accurate judgments. The purpose of this 'inanipulatiori is to determine whether counterexplaining accurate judgments will lead to negative belief revision, and whether this negative belief revision will be mitigated by the use of audit groups. A 2 x 2 x 2 …

Research In Mathematics Education: A Contemporary Perspective, Alistair Mcintosh (Ed.)

Research outputs pre 2011

Herstories - Our History: A Bibliography Of Resources On Western Australian Women's History, Penelope Hetherington

Research outputs pre 2011

The centenary of Western Australian Women's suffrage in 1999 has seen a resurgence in interest in the history of women in W.A. While there exists a substantial body of historical resources, extensive guides to these resources are lacking. The majority of general histories of Australian women and Australian suffrage rarely treat W.A. in much detail.

This bibliography is intended as a guide and starting point for scholars and students interested in WA Women's history and the history of childhood. Only secondary sources are represented in this bibliography. A wealth of primary sources on WA women's history can be found at …

Proceedings Of The Fifth International Women In Leadership Conference: Ethics Or Leadership? The 90'S Dilemma, Adrianne Kinnear (Ed.)

Research outputs pre 2011

The International Women in Leadership conference attracts internationally renowned speakers as well as a wide audience from across the nation. The Conference is at the forefront of organisational and leadership research and provides a means of personal interaction with preeminent female researchers and leaders in Australia and overseas. Such interaction deepens the understanding of the leadership capacities of women and of leadership in organisations, knowledge which is central to the intellectual work of the Women in Leadership Project. Held at the Esplanade Hotel, Fremantle, from the 25th-27th November 1996, the Fifth International Women in Leadership conference focused on the theme: …

The Use Of Influence Tactics Ins Cso/Board Relations In Accordance With The Board Composition, Mary Knox Bricken

Honors Theses

The present study seeks to understand why greater structural board independence may not necessarily strengthen the board's overall power in its relationship with the CEO; and, further, it aims to determine what factors do affect board leader-follower relations. Existing research has studied CEO's reactions to the implicit loss of their structural sources of power. However, very little research has been devoted to the suggested notion that CEO's may use unconventional influence tactics in order to maintain their power at levels equivalent to before structural board change. This study strives to discover what tactics CEO's may use in order to sustain …

Are Schools Teaching Girls To Be Leaders?, Amy L. Schollin

Honors Theses

Are schools teaching girls to be leaders? My belief is that we must examine issues concerning our young women, their educational experiences, opportunities they are offered, people they are exposed to and their life in school. There appears to be a lack of emphasis on leadership and women. Without addressing this issue in the early stages of a young girl's development, we will continue to feed the notion that male standards are the norm, My initial question is intended to generate an in depth look at the impact of teachers, curriculum, students and the environment on the development of leadership …

Leadership: A Cultural Manifestation Of Evolution, Lee A. Scott

Honors Theses

This essay has sought to expand the perspective of leadership studies by incorporating the general theory of evolution from the discipline of biology. Evolution has been compared to leadership by other researchers but they have limited themselves to a metaphorical comparison. The primary purpose of this paper was to show that such a distinction was inaccurate when we have a full understanding of general evolutionary theory. Once this connection was established in Part II, we turned to examine some of the implications for leadership studies in particular. While a new theory was not presented, a foundation for such a theory …

Perspectives On Norm-Referenced And Criterion-Referenced Grading In Introductory Speech Performance Courses, Ralph R. Behnke, Chris R. Sawyer

Journal of the Association for Communication Administration

This article explores the integration and amalgamation of norm-referenced and criterion-referenced perspectives in a manner that is particularly appropriate for use in basic or introductory speech communication performance courses. Possibly the greatest virtue of using criterion-referenced grading of speeches in a basic speech performance course is the generation of positive affect toward performance. Because students identify with their speeches, they are much more demoralized by negative feedback about their work on these assignments than for others. By setting appropriate minimal performance criteria that most beginning students can achieve, morale remains high, there is an atmosphere of success, and, in fact, …

The Development Of An Interactive Video Masters Program In Communication Education, Ronnie Bankston, Mary Bozik

Journal of the Association for Communication Administration

The article offers a model for other institutions that may be considering the development of an interactive video Masters Degree program, to share the process by which this program was designed and approved, and examines the issues and challenges confronted. This article is an attempt to help communication administrators benefit from our experience and gain insight into the considerations involved in the development of an M.A. offered via distance learning. The course offerings are based on a view that secondary and community college teachers are required to be generalists since they most often teach a wide variety of topics in …

Effective Communication In The Performance Appraisal Interview: Face-To-Face Communication For Public Managers In The Culturally Diverse Workplace, John F. Kikoski

Political Science & Global Affairs Faculty Publications

A study restates and then extends a thesis about the performance appraisal process first published almost 15 years ago - that the public manager's performance in the face-to-face encounter of the appraisal interview itself is the Achilles' heel of the entire process. This 1983 article held that many public managers experience discomfort approaching the actual performance appraisal interview and difficulty in conducting it. They are usually untrained and may even be unaware of the scholarly work that has identified the skills that make for more effective face-to-face communication. The 1983 article also presented 6 specific microcommunication skills to help public …
