B ackground Researchers have identified many factors affecting undergraduate engineering students' achievement and persistence. Yet, much of this research focuses on persistence within academia, with less attention to career plans after graduation. Furthermore, the relative influence expectancy‐versus value‐related beliefs is not fully understood. P urpose (H ypothesis ) To address these gaps, we examined relationships among following motivation constructs for female male first‐year...
The “new materialism” and empiricism” have recently emerged as an important movement in qualitative inquiry. In discussions of the new materialism empiricism literature, Deleuze’s work is regularly presented alongside that theorists who are directly associated with movement. I focus on Barad, arguably most prominent figure materialism, examine extent to which her philosophy compatible Deleuze. show their ontologies differ fundamentally therefore incommensurable: a immanence difference,...
Although triadic supervision has existed for some time, few studies have focused on this form of or its effectiveness. In qualitative study, the experiences 6 master's‐level students from a counselor education program who participated as supervisees in were explored using in‐depth, open‐ended interviews. The data analysis resulted 5 major categories, which are discussed. Implications findings clinical and further research also addressed.
Although triadic supervision has been the subject of little empirical research, perspectives supervisors in this form have received even less attention. This qualitative study examined 6 doctoral student supervisors' experiences and demands it placed on them their role as supervisors. Data collection involved use in‐depth, open‐ended interviews, a whole‐text analysis resulted 2 major categories. These categories address various ways which increases or decreases supervisor. Implications...
A qualitative study was conducted to explore supervisors' experiences of supervisee incompatibility in triadic supervision. In‐depth interviews were completed with 9 doctoral student supervisors a counselor education program, and whole‐text analysis generated 3 categories. Supervisee took wide variety forms negatively affected the content supervision, including its progress productivity. It also influenced process feedback support offered by either supervisor or supervisees general...
Understanding consumers' concerns about vocational rehabilitation services is important because of the current emphasis on empowerment and consumer-directed services. This study focused participants' responses to an open-ended survey question that asked them what they thought could be done improve their satisfaction with a program. Participants were employed unemployed consumers The analyzed using form qualitative content analysis. analysis resulted in development four categories: general...
The Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (2001) has approved the use triadic supervision as an alternative to individual in clinical instruction. However, literature describing this mode is very limited. A model described, including presession planning, in‐session strategies, administrative considerations supervisee evaluation. An evaluation from 2 recent studies also discussed, recommendations are provided using counselor preparation.
For Deleuze, modern philosophy presupposes a dogmatic image of thought, one that precedes thinking itself. Deleuze engages in radical critique this and rejects both common sense the form representation. Changes occurred over time Deleuze’s about thought images, but ultimately, he advocated new genuine, nonrepresentational thought. In his final philosophical work, is equated with plane immanence. Thus, provides basis for development use all other concepts research. Mainstream qualitative...
Modernist writing relies on elements such as linearity, meaning, plot, internal coherence, subject–predicate relations, structure in general, and identity or fixity. For Deleuze, is nonreductive, destabilizes undermines a thematic reading. More specifically, it rejects sense of beginning, middle, end; subject–object distinctions; subjects who are developed according to structure; identity. Deleuze’s concepts immanence the virtual discussed, two major forms Deleuzian then examined. Nonlinear...
A qualitative study was undertaken to investigate supervisors' experiences of the process triadic supervision. Data were collected using in-depth, individual interviews with clinical supervisors who part a counselor education program. whole-text analysis yielded two major categories. Triadic supervision enhanced particular feedback dynamics, supervisee learning and growth, improved general atmosphere It also impaired dynamics limited ability meet needs provide assistance. Implications...
Abstract Only a small number of qualitative studies have investigated panelists' experiences during standard-setting activities or the thought processes associated with actions. This study involved an examination 11 panelists who participated in prior, one-day meeting which either traditional bookmark method single-passage was used. Data were collected using in-depth focus group interviews. A whole text analysis resulted three major categories. Many participants found fundamental task...
A qualitative study was conducted to investigate supervisors' experiences of the contributions made by second supervisee in triadic supervision. In-depth, open-ended interviews were with 6 supervisors a counselor education program. Participants viewed as source valuable information and insights for both supervisor supervision peer promoted latter's learning growth. The supervisee's presence enhanced certain activities or allowed new be used. addition changes dynamics from those individual...
Although some of the literature on teaching qualitative research methods courses has included students' experiences during courses, these have not been made a primary focus study and examined systematically. To gain fuller understanding graduate-level course, 13 reflective journals were analyzed. Eight major categories emerged from analysis: (a) struggling with new paradigm, (b) changes in perspective quantitative research, (c) phenomenological other concepts practices, (d) becoming more...
This study involved a qualitative examination of the personal characteristics that university students saw as important in helping them to compensate for their reading difficulties at various stages education. The sample consisted 10 undergraduate or recent graduates who reported significant history difficulties. Data were collected using in-depth, open-ended interviews with each participant. These data then analyzed form whole text analysis and resulted four major themes: seeking assistance...
Increasingly, research has focused on the cognitive processes associated with various standard‐setting activities. This qualitative study involved an examination of 16 third‐grade reading teachers' experiences task conceptualizing entire classroom hypothetical target students when single‐passage bookmark method or yes/no was used during a one‐day mock panel meeting. Data were collected using in‐depth focus group interviews eight participants from each meetings, and whole‐text analysis...
Abstract In test‐centered standard‐setting methods, borderline performance can be represented by many different profiles of strengths and weaknesses. As a result, asking panelists to estimate item or test for hypothetical group study examinees, typical examinee, may an extremely difficult task one that lead questionable results in setting cut scores. this study, data collected from previous are used deduce panelists’ conceptions performance. These then predict scores on algebra readiness....
The purpose of this study was to explore the degree grain size attributes and sample sizes that can support accurate parameter recovery with General Diagnostic Model (GDM) for a large-scale international assessment. In resampling study, bootstrap samples were obtained from 2003 Grade 8 TIMSS in Mathematics at varying 500 4000 unidimensional model one ten attributes. results showed eight-attribute most consistently identified as best fitting. Parameter estimation more than less failed....
This article introduces the Diagnostic Profiles (DP) standard setting method for a performance on test developed from cognitive diagnostic model (CDM), outcome of which is profile mastered and not‐mastered skills or attributes rather than single score. In DP method, key judgment task panelists decision whether not individual skill profiles meet standard. A randomized experiment was carried out in secondary mathematics teachers were randomly assigned to either modified Angoff method. The...
Judgmental standard setting methods have been criticized for the cognitive complexity of judgment task that panelists are asked to complete. This study compared two designed reduce this complexity: yes/no method and single-passage bookmark method. Two mock panel meetings were convened, one each method, using experienced third-grade teachers as panelists. The produced very similar cut scores they seemed succeed in reducing task. There was also evidence, however, participants both groups a...
A chronological conception of time appears to implicitly guide most, if not all, qualitative research. Chronological is so pervasive and powerful that it operates essentially unnoticed, functioning as a kind grand narrative in inquiry. Ontological introduced counterpart shown function the “outside” time. time, however, cannot be experienced or thought: It consists past never took place future can arrive. Deleuze’s formulation ontological Aion discussed, Joyce’s final novel, Finnegans Wake,...
The concepts of immanence and transcendence have a long varied history in philosophy. In an ontology absolute immanence, is not dependent on something else. Immanence immanent only to itself, with the result that all eliminated. Deleuze, like Derrida Foucault, has unwavering commitment which he conceives different ways during his career. There both logical ethical problem any transcendence, addresses these problems. Fully inquiry rejects forms methodological transcendence. It avoids relying...
