Directed By: Dr. Thomas Davis, Assistant Professor, Education Policy and Leadership, Department of Teaching and Learning, Policy and Leadership
This quantitative research study was designed to compute correlations/relationships of student
engagement and student achievement of fifth grade students. Secondary information was collected on the relationship of FARMS, type of school, hope, and well-being on student achievement. School leaders are charged with ensuring that students achieve academically and demonstrate their ability by meeting identified targets on state and district mandated assessments. Due to increased pressure to meet targets, principals implement academic interventions to improve student learning and overlook the benefits of a positive school climate. This study has provided information on the impact of school climate on student achievement. To conduct this study, the researcher collected two sets of public fifth grade data (Gallup Survey student
engagement scores and DSA reading, mathematics, and science scores) to determine the relationship of student performance and school climate. Secondary data were also collected on teacher
engagement and the percentage of students receiving FARMS to determine the effect on students. The findings from this study reinforced the belief that school climate can have a positive effect on student achievement. This study contributed quantitative data about the relationship between school climate and school achievement.

▼ In this thesis existing theory is extended by combining work engagement and flow research to generate the concept of task engagement, which focuses on episodes of peak performance at work. Using a critical incident methodology in Study 1, task engagement was found to have three key characteristics (i.e., distortion of time; complete absorption in the task; and is a state of high cognitive efficiency). Both situational (i.e., high challenge/high skills, control, and proximal feedback) and psychological antecedents (i.e., safety, availability, meaning and self-efficacy) were also identified. In Study 2, a longitudinal diary study, study 1 findings were replicated and extended by examining duration and frequency of task engagement episodes at work, and their positive impact on employee well-being. Overall, task engagement was found to be a temporal and dynamic construct, involving the interplay of person and situation, which has implications for employee task performance and well-being.

▼ The academic study of engagement has its roots in studies of happiness and of burnout. Happiness consists of three distinct dimensions, namely, pleasure, meaning and engagement. The dimension of engagement is highly relevant to a working environment. The positive outcomes that have been linked to engagement have driven much of the research in this field. Living in an increasingly competitive world where performance and competitive advantage guide the thinking patterns it has become important to investigate this concept in a local setting in order to determine its roots, its predictors and the underlying processes that influence and determine engagement. This is because it is not clear what the levels of employee engagement are in Namibian organisations. It is also unclear what the psychological conditions and antecedents of engagement are in Namibian organisations and whether these are consistent with findings elsewhere. In addition to this it also is not clear what the effects of the psychological conditions, and antecedents thereof, are on employee engagement in Namibian organisations.
The aim of this study was to investigate the levels of engagement in Namibian organisations as well as the antecedents and underlying psychological conditions that lead to engagement. In this study a cross-sectional survey design was used with a sample of 309 currently employed individuals. A biographical questionnaire together with the Antecedents Questionnaire, Psychological Conditions Questionnaire and Engagement Questionnaire were used as measuring instruments. Statistical analysis in terms of descriptive, factor, correlation, canonical, multiple regression and mediation analyses have been conducted. results showed that Namibian employees showed higher levels of engagement than those of employees investigated in other areas. In addition, it was shown that rewards, co-worker relations, resources, supervisor relations, job enrichment, self-consciousness, work role fit and organisational support had statistically significant relationships with employee engagement. Psychological meaningfulness mediated the relationship between job enrichment and work role fit on the one hand and employee engagement on the other. However, the relationship between co-worker relations and engagement was not mediated by psychological meaningfulness. The relationship between resources and engagement was not mediated by psychological availability. In this study, psychological safety did not mediate the relationship between co-worker relations and engagement. However, psychological safety mediated the relationship between supervisor relations and self-consciousness on the one hand and employee engagement on the other.
The results build on previous findings regarding antecedents of employee engagement by confirming the important role of psychological meaningfulness and psychological availability as intervening variables between work context factors and employee engagement.

▼ The purpose of this research—which was divided into two parts—was to evaluate the extent to which adolescent reading comprehension research has addressed student
engagement and examine the relationship between
engagement, classroom practices, students’ reading skills, and comprehension. Study 1 reviewed adolescent reading comprehension intervention research published between the years 2000 and 2014 to examine the presence of
engagement-enhancing practices. Additionally, it examined the extent to which
engagement was measured, the dimensions of
engagement commonly measured, the most common methods of measurement, and whether
engagement was statistically linked to student outcomes. Study 2 examined whether behavioral and cognitive
engagement mediated the impact of classroom practices and conditions on comprehension and whether students’ entry-level reading skills moderated the influence of behavioral and cognitive
engagement on comprehension.
In Study 1, a systematic literature review of adolescent reading comprehension interventions revealed 76 articles (80 studies) published between 2000 and 2014 that were coded for inclusion of
engagement-enhancing components and measurement of
engagement. Most of these studies (95%) included at least one
engagement-enhancing component, but only 9% measured
engagement. Findings of the limited studies (3%) that examined the relationship between
engagement and outcomes indicated statistically significant effects for interventions that incorporated
engagement-enhancing practices.
Study 2 used structural equation modeling with two latent predictor factors (classroom practices and
engagement) and one observed outcome (comprehension) gathered in the context of a multi-component reading comprehension intervention study designed to increase students’ comprehension of complex text. Findings indicated that behavioral
engagement significantly predicted comprehension in both the treatment and business-as-usual conditions, but behavioral
engagement only partially mediated the impact of classroom practices and conditions on comprehension in the treatment condition. Cognitive
engagement did not significantly predict comprehension outcomes, nor did it act as a mediator. Students’ entry-level reading skills did not interact with their behavioral or cognitive
engagement to predict comprehension.
Both studies highlight the importance of
engagement and provide preliminary evidence to support the relationship between classroom practices,
engagement, and comprehension. More research is needed to better define and measure the multiple dimensions of
engagement and determine which specific practices influence
engagement, and how they do so.

▼ ABSTRACT
The undergraduate collegiate years are filled with growth and development for students. As students experience and progress through their collegiate years, they are often confronted with difficult life questions, such as what is the meaning of life or why am I here? Oftentimes, the question is why do bad things happen? The purpose of this study is to better understand relationship between student
engagement and spirituality.
Undergraduate students at a small, church-related private college in the Upper Midwest were surveyed in the Spring 2015 semester using the College Students’ Beliefs and Values Survey (CSBVS).
Alexander Astin’s I-E-O model was utilized as a conceptual framework for better understanding the relationships of inputs, environments, and outputs while testing the variables selected for the purposes of this research from the CSBVS, specifically the five constructs of spiritual quest, ethic of caring, ecumenical worldview, equanimity, and charitable involvement.
In-class experiences appear to be the strongest as it relates to the five spirituality constructs. There is a statistically significant relationship between out-of-class experiences and spirituality. There is less evidence that there is a relationship between spirituality and faculty interactions. It is important to remember the institution surveyed. Midwest Church College (MCC) is a small, church-related private college. What the research with this project also showed is strong support of the findings of the Astin, Astin, and Lindholm research of 2011 in that there is a strong relationship between
engagement and the five spirituality constructs of equanimity, ecumenical worldview, charitable involvement, ethic of caring, and spiritual quest for students at MCC.
Such information helps to confirm that students at MCC find that spirituality is a significant part of their daily lives and thus must be considered as a strong piece for better understanding how to best respond to the difficult questions they often pose: Why am I here? What is the meaning of life? Why do bad things happen?

▼ This inquiry explored the research question: How can the Fort St John Community Action Team (CAT) create a safe environment to ensure peer input? The Northern Health Authority acted as a partner in this research. This inquiry was grounded in community-based action research and action research engagement methodology. Following Royal Roads University Research Ethics Board (REB) approval and the Northern Health Authority Research Ethics and Operational approval, eight people with lived experience (peers) over the age of nineteen, within the community of Fort St John, were recruited to participate in journey mapping sessions and semi-structured interviews. In addition, eight members of the Community Action Team (CAT) participated in a focus group. Findings in this inquiry include information related to the barriers peers experience accessing services within the community, the importance of supportive services within the community, the importance of foundational relationships between community professionals and peers, and the importance of using a variety of engagement methods to gather input from peers. This inquiry adhered to the Royal Roads University and Northern Health Research Ethics policies.

▼ This research sees my interests coalesce into a particular focus on how collaborative partnerships with parents/caregivers can provide whānau Māori with opportunities to strengthen wellbeing in their own lives. It is located in Aotearoa New Zealand and within the context of Te Whāriki (Ministry of Education, 1996), Aotearoa New Zealand’s early childhood curriculum. The Ministry of Education has a target that 98% of all children in Aotearoa New Zealand under 5 will attend an early childhood education setting (Ministry of Education, 2016), with Māori children having lower participation rates than the national participation rate (Ministry of Education, 2013). The premise for this thesis is that meaningful whānau
engagement in early learning contexts within Aotearoa New Zealand can empower whānau Māori, and honour the promises made in Te Tiriti o Waitangi of partnership, participation, and protection.
Therefore, this thesis sets out to examine what constitutes meaningful
engagement for whānau Māori in an early childhood setting in Aotearoa New Zealand, and how meaningful
engagement can assist whānau to enjoy an increase of wellbeing.
To explore this issue, I conducted research within an early childhood setting in Aotearoa New Zealand, using methodologies of Kaupapa Māori Research and Narrative Inquiry. I listened to the narratives of whānau Māori indicating how meaningful
engagement was created for them, and investigated if links were generated between
engagement and wellbeing for their whānau. These links were identified in the literature as significant levers for educational success.
This research discovered three stages of
engagement for the whānau Māori who participated in this study: establishing
engagement, developing
engagement and solidifying
engagement. Once created, meaningful
engagement can lead to flourishing, indicating that there is relationship between meaningful
engagement and whānau wellbeing.

▼ Previous assessments of employee
engagement have all been self-report, creating the possibility for common method bias and a gap in assessing all components of the construct, especially the physiological component. The purpose of this study was to measure
engagement using a physiological approach that reflects actual physical differences in individuals experiencing an engaged versus an unengaged state. In a within-subjects laboratory study, 40 college-aged participants were assessed using the BIOPAC physiological measuring system in both an engaged and an unengaged task condition. GSR findings indicate that a heightened level of arousal was present in the engaged versus unengaged task, but that the arousal level was not strong enough to produce an increase in heart rate. Implications of results are that we may want to re-evaluate how employee
engagement is defined and how it is measured.

▼ ???I???m not good at math??? and ???I hate math??? are common reactions teachers hear from their students. Increasing student motivation and achievement in the classroom is a challenge teachers are faced with. This research project studied the effects that GeoGebra had on student comprehension and retention of math concepts. This research project included 112 high school students all taking geometry from the same teacher. The control and treatment students learned the same material on geometric transformations with the treatment group using interactive GeoGebra activities. A mixed methods approach was used to determine whether GeoGebra impacted student achievement and
engagement. Qualitative data was collected in the form of field notes, informal interviews, and examination of artifacts. Quantitative data was collected on three assessments and analyzed in SPSS using a repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA). The findings and analyses from the qualitative data and quantitative data, respectively, were used to determine if the use of the GeoGebra software improved students??? level of understanding of abstract concepts, increased students??? comprehension and retention of geometric transformations, and had a positive effect on students??? attitudes towards mathematics, thus enhancing their learning and achievement.

▼ The front line manager has been identified as key to employee
engagement in health care organizations and organizational success (Kane-Urabazo, 2006; Laschinger, & Finegan, 2005; Laschinger, Wong, & Greco, 2006; Rivera, Fitzpatrick, & Boyle, 2011; Tillot, 2013). This descriptive qualitative study explored
engagement from a front line nurse manager’s perspective. A purposive sample of six front line nurse managers were asked (in interviews) to discuss how
engagement was experienced, described and observed in their staff and themselves. The aim of the study was to add to the current knowledge of
engagement and contribute to the definition and conceptualization of the concept of
engagement from the perspective of front line nurse manager. The Appreciative Inquiry, (AI) framework specifically the discovery and dream phases, were used to design the research questions and guided the study. The four themes that emerged from the analysis of the data were: i) supportive relationships and actions, ii) common purposeful work, iii) sense of achievement and recognition, and iv) fully participatory. The unique perspective from the front line nurse managers provides an indication of how
engagement is experienced by front line nurse managers. The participants described their perceptions of
engagement and its meaning to them. Ongoing research and expansion of knowledge on
engagement of the front line nurse managers is integral to further defining and developing a shared meaning of
engagement in order to align the understanding of
engagement of front line nurse managers with their organizations.

▼ This thesis explores the complex and multidimensional topic of student engagement in one Ontario postsecondary setting. This study was designed to discover if faculty and students agree or differ in their understanding and perceptions of student engagement and, if so, how.
Using a qualitative approach, full-time faculty and students from one school in one college were observed and interviewed about their understandings and perceptions regarding student engagement in the classroom. Faculty volunteers had at least two years of full-time teaching experience and students were past their first year of study. Study participants confirm that student engagement differs in definition and understanding among and between individuals, shifts over time, and can be experienced in isolation or with others. There are cognitive, behavioural and emotional aspects of engagement that participants described as having a clear impact on their learning. In addition, various demographic factors were deemed to influence experienced and perceived variances in levels of engagement.
Discussions of demographic factors reveal a great deal of work needed in order to understand and work with these areas to foster engagement. Interviews revealed a narrow
iii
interpretation of concepts, such as gender interpreted as sexual designation and socio-economic status as financial income. To support engagement a deeper understanding of, and appreciation for, these factors is needed. Added understandings of culture, race and ethnicity are needed to truly honour students in the classroom. Faculty need to take the time to look past surface behaviours, invite student collaboration and truly attend to individual needs to facilitate a deeper level of engagement in the classroom.
This study confirms that our perceptions and experiences with engagement are highly personal and complex. There was no common definition found; student engagement is as diverse as the student population. It is an elusive, evolving, complex phenomenon. To understand and promote engagement in the field of postsecondary education, it is imperative that student engagement remain a focus of ongoing dialogue and reflection. Implications for practice and consideration for future areas of research are suggested.

▼ Family
engagement is widely believed to enhance childrens academic achievement. Some children, particularly Latino English language learners, are consistently found at the low end of the achievement gap. This qualitative study examined the relationship between the Epstein Model of Parent Involvement, and the personal
engagement of Mexican immigrant families who have a son or daughter enrolled at the middle school level. This study employed a constructivist grounded theory analysis method. The participants of this study are Mexican immigrant parents who comprised the core sample. Data was collected in participants' homes, community agencies, neighborhoods, and schools. Data sources included interviews, participant observations, and focus groups as well as document analysis at a public middle school in a Southwestern city of the United States. This research will contribute to understanding of Mexican immigrant families and their needs by providing insight into which of Maslow's hierarchy of needs emerge during family
engagement practices and what unique meaning individual family members make of the hierarchy needs that emerge, including, which hierarchy needs are most common among immigrant families, and which hierarchy needs are considered most important to immigrant families engaged in learning processes that may lead towards school reform. With this study I hope to unveil the intricacies of family and child relationships for this population and family and school partnerships that may lead towards student achievement. In doing so, I hope to provide critical understanding of school community vii forms of
engagement of immigrant Mexican families to inform researchers and politicians who make decisions and evaluations on effective practices for family
engagement of these diverse families.'

▼ Tein opinnäytetyöni pitkäaikaiselle yhteistyöyritykselleni, Pirkanmaan Sanomille, heidän mobiilietukorttiaan koskien. Työn tarkoituksena oli ensinnäkin kartoittaa, onko tällaiselle etukortille markkinoita Tampereella, ja toisekseen selvittää, millä tavoin tällainen kortti tulisi rakentaa. Näin pyrin auttamaan Pirkanmaan Sanomia rakentamaan etukortin, josta voisivat hyötyä sekä kuluttajat että yritykset. Kuluttajat saavat etukortin rakentamisen onnistuessa rahanarvoisia hyötyjä ja etuja kotiseudullaan ja yritykset saavat esimerkiksi vaihtoehtoisen paikan Citydealille, jossa markkinoida valikoimaansa ja saada sitä kautta katteellista myyntiä.
Opinnäytetyön teoriaosuudessa käsittelen asiakassuhdemarkkinointia ja asiakkaan sitouttamista kuluttajamarkkinoinnin näkökulmista ja perehdytän lukijan aiheeseen syvemmin engagement-markkinoinnin parissa. Lisäksi teoriaosuudessa käsittelen muun muassa brändin sekä segmentoinnin erityispiirteitä.
Loppuosa johdannosta on salattu.
I did my thesis for my long-term co-operation company, Pirkanmaan Sanomat. The topic was the mobile loyalty card application which Pirkanmaan Sanomat is planning. The aim of the thesis was first of all to find out if there is a market in Tampere for this kind of loyalty card, and secondly to investigate how the card should be built. With this thesis, I aimed to help Pirkanmaan Sanomat to build a loyalty card which could benefit both consumers and companies. If the card is constructed successfully, the consumers will get benefits worth money, and companies will get, for example, an alternative system to Citydeal for marketing their products and in that way make more profitable sales.
In the theory part of my thesis, I deal with customer relationship marketing and customer commitment from the perspective of consumer marketing. The reader is familiarized with the topic via engagement marketing. In addition, I deal in the theory part with brand-building, and segmentation, among other things.
Rest of the abstract is hidden.

▼ The purpose of the study was to determine whether high
performing urban high schools have higher levels of student
engagement and if so; what school factors contribute toward that
engagement. The school factors examined in this study were
leadership, instructional practices and culture.; A high-performing
urban high school in the Los Angeles County area of California was
selected for the study. The school was selected because it was part
of a high school district singled out by the State Superintendent
of Instruction for special recognition as a result of increased
student achievement by California's Academic Performance Index
(API) and its particular success with targeted subgroup
populations.; The case study was completed using a mixed-method
qualitative research design. Methods of data collection included
observations, surveys, interviews and document analysis. A
concurrent research study conducted at the school site by Indiana
University as part of the High School Survey of Student
Engagement
was also utilized as a secondary data source. Instruments to gather
multiple methods of data collection supported triangulation of the
data.; Analysis of the data indicated that effective leadership,
instructional practices, and culture were factors impacting student
achievement and student
engagement; but the findings from the High
School Survey of Student
Engagement indicated minimal or moderate
levels of student
engagement. Responsibility for student
achievement throughout the school organization, concern for
students, use of data to guide decision making, and effective
leadership emerged as predominant themes impacting student
achievement and student
engagement.

▼ Aim
The promotion of happiness is an important goal for psychology and most studies of happiness focus on the three routes to happiness that have been identified by Seligman (2003): (1) pleasure, (2) engagement, and (3) meaning. Engagement and meaning should be targeted to promote sustainable happiness of people. The aim of this study is to investigate the subjective experiences of meaning of work, work role fit, psychological meaningfulness and engagement among a sample of educators in Zambia.
Method
A quantitative approach was followed and the research design used was a cross-sectional survey. The representative population (n = 150) used for this research was 75 basic and 75 secondary/high school educators who live in the Choma district of Zambia. Convenience sampling was used to identify the participants for the research. The Work-role Fit Scale, Work-Life Questionnaire, Psychological Meaningfulness Scale, and Work Engagement Scale were administered. The statistical analyses were carried out by means of the SPSS program. Descriptive statistics was used to analyse the data. The construct validity and reliability of the measuring instruments was assessed by conducting exploratory factor analyses and computing Cronbach alphas. Pearson correlations were used to specify the relationships between the variables. Multiple regression analyses were performed to test mediating effects in this study. Results
The results showed that work beliefs (and specifically those with a calling orientation) explained 26.7% of the variance in psychological meaningfulness at work, which increased to 45.5% if work role fit was included as a predictor. A calling orientation to work explained approximately 52% of the variance in emotional and physical engagement of educators, but work role fit and psychological meaningfulness did not predict work engagement when work beliefs were controlled for. Structural equation modelling confirmed a model in which a calling orientation impacted psychological meaningfulness and work engagement. A calling orientation predicted work engagement directly, while such work orientation impacted psychological meaningfulness indirectly via work role fit.
Conclusion
The results suggest that psychological meaningfulness and work engagement are two separate individual outcomes at work, and that a calling orientation impacted both outcomes.

Developing a Theory of Employer and Higher Education

▼ The need for more effective
engagement between
universities and business has been receiving more attention in
recent years. Government policy aspirations are placing growing
expectations that the higher education sector will play its part in
economic growth. At the same time, funding restrictions are
imposing more pressure on universities to find different income
streams, including funding from industry. However, the relationship
between universities and business is often problematic, and
engagement between the two is frequently not done well. Meanwhile,
the role that business schools are expected to play in that
engagement is contentious, which appears to put them squarely on
the fault-line of these policy shifts. This study explores
employer/HE provider
engagement within the context of the recent
policy landscape, responding with a proposed conceptual model of
engagement. A business school relationship with three employer
organisations forms the basis of an embedded case study, which
employs an interpretive stance to help better understand the
relationship between employer and HE provider. The study found that
a demand-led provision of skills with employers is a more nuanced
context than the narrow demand-led focus of the Leitch Review,
which primarily frames the issue as a problem of supply. This study
confirms that employers needs are indeed complex and often unclear,
and that employers expect providers to help identify their needs.
Therefore the study questions the assumption, implicit in recent
policy, that it is possible to generate generic needs from
employers. From the evidence addressed, it proposes that employers
are seeking HE providers who can both identify their needs, and
help address them with the challenge implicit in latest thinking.
The study thus proposes a distinctive, dual-role for business
schools, namely, a responsiveness to demand balanced by the
creation and dissemination of a latest thinking which leads demand.
In order to do this, the study proposes a conceptual model of
relationship
engagement, where the quality and importance of
relationships were found to be critical for effective
engagement.
Therefore the study concludes that a distinctive, mutually
beneficial relationship between business schools and business is
unlikely to be realized without understanding and fostering
effective relational
engagement.

▼ In this dissertation I develop a theoretical
framework for understanding why citizens do or do not engage in
politics and civic society and how organizations, through their
appeals, impact these decisions. Specifically, I broaden the
“calculus of voting” and borrow from John Zaller’s (1992) theory of
how people answer survey questions. Using this framework, I
generate a number of hypotheses about what types of people should
participate when solicited, as well as which appeals work best in
particular contexts and for whom. In the three empirical chapters,
I test these hypotheses using survey and field experiments. I
conclude with recommendations for future scholarship in this area,
noting its practical importance for increasing participation rates
generally and decreasing the participatory gap, which are two
ailments of American Democracy today.

▼ En todo contexto de comunicación, intervienen tres factores (el mensaje, el contexto, y la audiencia). Considerando al
engagement como parte del proceso de comunicación de las marcas con los consumidores, la presente tesis desea conocer los predictores del
engagement positivo y del
engagement negativo relacionados con el mensaje, el contexto y la audiencia. En general, la revisión de la literatura reveló que son necesarios nuevos estudios en torno a estas variables. Por ello, la presente investigación persigue 3 objetivos: (i) identificar cuáles son las variables clave de diseño de un mensaje en una red social (concretamente Facebook) que un anunciante puede utilizar para aumentar el
engagement positivo y disminuir el
engagement negativo; (ii) estudiar la influencia del marco de tiempo (día de publicación y hora de publicación) y la estacionalidad (baja, media y alta) sobre el
engagement positivo/negativo en una Organización de Gestión de Destinos (DMO, por sus siglas en inglés); e (iii) investigar la influencia de los motivos de viaje y el perfil de los destinos turísticos sobre el
engagement positivo/negativo en una DMO.
Para alcanzar los objetivos, la investigación se dividió en tres estudios empíricos. Cada estudio responde a un objetivo en particular:
En el primer estudio, la revisión de la literatura permitió identificar que las variables relativas al contenido (mensaje) pueden ser clasificadas en cuatro grandes grupos: (i) herramientas del mensaje (presencia de texto, imágenes, video, etiquetas, aplicaciones, juegos interactivos y calendarios de eventos u otros), (ii) estructura adecuada (longitud moderada e inteligibilidad), (iii) carácter informativo (enlaces hacia la marca, orientación hacia el producto, tópicos relevantes para la audiencia y que prometen una remuneración), y (iv) carácter persuasivo-emocional (señales emocionales, con valencia positiva, con endosement y mención de influenciadores). Por ello, se analizó el poder predictivo de estas variables sobre el
engagement positivo/negativo. Para analizar los datos empíricos, se realizó un análisis de contenido a 180 publicaciones de la marca país España en Facebook, a 57.626 reacciones de la audiencia a tales publicaciones y a 1.361 comentarios de la audiencia para tales publicaciones. Para contrastar las hipótesis, se recurrió al análisis de regresión con escalamiento óptimo (CATREG). Según los resultados, de los cuatro bloques de variables analizadas, sólo dos permiten predecir el
engagement: los aspectos relativos a las herramientas del mensaje (principalmente, la inclusión de videos) y los aspectos relativos al carácter informativo de las publicaciones (principalmente, el uso de tópicos relevantes).
En el segundo estudio, las variables de interés relativas al contexto fueron el marco de tiempo (hora de publicación, día de publicación) y la estacionalidad (temporada baja, media o alta). Para alcanzar el objetivo del segundo estudio, se llevó a cabo un análisis de contenido en 639 publicaciones, 178.913 reacciones de la audiencia a dichas…

▼ Ce travail de thèse vise à identifier, sur le plan théorique et empirique, les stratégies financières et les modes de gouvernance des investisseurs institutionnels propres à leur comportement d’investisseur de long terme. Ces investisseurs ont en effet un avantage décisif dans l’allocation stratégique d’actifs : un horizon éloigné et des engagements plus ou moins définis. Pour ce faire, il circonscrit ses investigations et ses analyses aux fonds de pension, en observant ce qui est susceptible de les rapprocher ou de les éloigner d’un comportement d’investisseur de long terme. Le choix délibéré de se focaliser sur les fonds de pension tient à ce que ces derniers portent des engagements contractuels de passif de long terme de retraites vis-à-vis de leurs mandants. Ce travail étudie plus spécifiquement un aspect du comportement des fonds de pension -en l’occurrence leurs placements dans les hedge funds- dans le but d’analyser les différentes propositions de régulation des fonds de pension et des hedge funds.
The aim of this thesis is to identify theoretically and empirically strategies and governance of institutional investors specific to long term investors’ behavior. Indeed, these last investors have the advantage in term of strategic asset allocation because of their long horizon and their liabilities more and less defined. Because pension funds have contractual obligations to deliver benefits, we analyze their current strategies and governance and determine to what extent they are in line with long term behavior. Moreover, we investigate pension funds allocation to hedge funds and we underline key issues in this delegation relationship.

▼ The first version that was uploaded to Macsphere was the incorrect version. I was advised to re-upload the correct version.
This research project interviewed child protection workers to understand how they used strengths-based theory and the Signs of Safety model in practice to facilitate engagement and build rapport with families. In addition, child protection workers were asked for their definitions of engagement and rapport building, since these concepts have multiple definitions in child welfare. In semi-structured individual interviews, child protection workers provided their perspectives regarding what fostered or hindered their efforts to engage with families. A structural and critical lens was applied to the analysis of the data, to reveal what organizational and relational factors positively or negatively influenced engagement.
This study found that all workers identified strengths-based theory and the Signs of Safety model as producing positive outcomes. The workers‟ descriptions of strengths-based practice included positive aspects such as being forthright about their role and their mandate, and working from the family‟s strengths instead of focusing solely on risk. Workers‟ responses regarding the Signs of Safety model varied. Two workers were from an agency (CAS-A) that promoted and used Signs of Safety with families, and two workers were from an agency (CAS-B) that had just began to use the model in settings with colleagues. Workers‟ descriptions of the model were positive and highlighted the collaborative aspects of the model, its inclusion of the family in planning, and affording the workers with a balanced assessment that contained elements of safety and risk.
In contrast, this study found that despite the strengths-based focus of these approaches, they had limitations. Workers described factors within and external to the worker/client relationship that influenced whether or not workers would use either approach. All workers discussed instances when engagement with a family was not successful, and consistently

described client resistance as a barrier to the process. However, this study found that client resistance was connected to power dynamics present in the worker/client relationship, and the dual role workers had to assume to do their job and satisfy their agency mandate.
The workers interviewed for this study described reverting to their role of investigator, when the family was resistant. This study found that a worker‟s authority was implied, and related to a family‟s feelings of powerlessness and fear. All workers provided examples of both types of resistance. As a result, this study concluded that strengths-based approaches could not address the issue of power, and were effective only with the family‟s cooperation.
Workers described wanting to apply strengths-based approaches but felt overwhelmed by organizational factors such as time constraints due to caseloads, and excessive administrative burden. This study found that…

▼ In indigenous Australian culture, the ‘Songlines’ represent the routes across the landscape followed by the original ‘creator-beings’ of the ‘Dreaming’. The ‘Songlines’ describe the locations of mountains, waterholes, ravines, and other landscape features that were ‘created’ by the movements and interactions of the creator-beings. Throughout Australia’s vast history, the indigenous peoples have recited the Songlines as oral narratives for the next generation, while also using the Songlines to navigate across vast tracts of wilderness. But with the departure of a disenfranchised younger generation of indigenous Australians to cities and government settlements, the Songlines are at risk of being forgotten.
Songlines are not merely navigation devices. They act as mnemonics that define cultural values, indigenous laws and ancestral heritage. Stories of the ‘Dreaming’ acknowledge the past, present and future. As such, they are capable of re-engaging Indigenous Australians with a sense of place, heritage,and values, that are so menaingful to there culture and religion.
The sites for this design-led investigation are located in Arkaroola Sanctuary, Vulkanatha /Gammon Ranges and Ikara-Flinders Ranges - located in South Australia. This vast expanse of land is associated with the indigenous people known as the Adnyamathanha. The principal aim of this investigation is to conceive a series of collaborative architectural shelters that are designed and positioned in ways that can help reawaken, expose, and define characteristics of ‘Songlines’ for future generations.
The architecture will act as a reminder of cultural values, while serving as a framing device to reveal the dynamic landscape features that form the Adnyamathanha’s traditional Songlines. This is to safeguard knowledge, and re-awaken awareness of ‘Songlines’ for younger indigenous peoples who have left their homeland and tribal region. The architectural shelters, as points of pause along the Songlines, act as mnemonic devices that help keep alive a vibrant and fundamental sense of cultural identity and place. The architectural interventions seek to diffuse boundaries between Indigenous and Non-Indigenous cultures – given the current integrated context of Australia.

▼ This study was designed to examine affective leader behaviours, and their impact on cognitive, affective and behavioural engagement. Researchers (e.g., Cropanzano & Mitchell, 2005; Moorman et al., 1998) have called for more research to be directed toward modelling and testing sets of relationships which better approximate the complexity associated with contemporary organisational experience. This research has attempted to do this by clarifying and defining the construct of engagement, and then by examining how each of the engagement dimensions are impacted by affective leader behaviours.
Specifically, a model was tested that identifies leader behaviour antecedents of cognitive, affective and behavioural engagement. Data was collected from five public-sector organisations. Structural equation modelling was used to identify the relationships between the engagement dimensions and leader behaviours. The results suggested that affective leader behaviours had a substantial direct impact on cognitive engagement, which in turn influenced affective engagement, which then influenced intent to stay and extra-role performance. The results indicated a directional process for engagement, but particularly highlighted the significant impact of affective leader behaviours as an antecedent to engagement.
In general terms, the findings will provide a platform from which to develop a robust measure of engagement, and will be helpful to human resource practitioners interested in understanding the directional process of engagement and the importance of affective leadership as an antecedent to engagement.

▼ Numa era onde os recursos disponíveis numa organização, têm de ser
rentabilizados, observa-se uma crescente preocupação com o bem-estar dos
indivíduos no trabalho. Este bem-estar no trabalho, também designado por
engagement, caracteriza-se pela energia e identificação que o indivíduo tem com
o seu trabalho, está associado a maior produtividade e qualidade dos serviços
prestados. (Bakker & Leiter, 2011).
O presente estudo tem como principal objetivo, descrever e analisar a
relação entre engagement e a satisfação com o suporte social nos enfermeiros de
cuidados de saúde primários. Além deste objetivo, pretendemos identificar
fatores, sócio demográficos e profissionais, que contribuam para o engagement
nesta população.
Este estudo é descritivo e transversal.
Para dar resposta aos objetivos propostos, aplicamos um questionário
constituído por três partes: I parte diz respeito à caracterização sóciodemográfica
e profissional da população, recorreu-se a algumas variáveis
psicossociais e profissionais como por exemplo, sexo, idade, tempo de serviço,
etc.; a II parte é constituída pela Escala de Satisfação com o Suporte Social ESSS
(Ribeiro, 1999), em que os enfermeiros deram informação sobre a satisfação com
o suporte social com, os amigos, a família, a intimidade e as atividades sociais; na
III parte é constituída pela escala de Utrech Work Engagement Scale de 17 itens
(Schaufeli & Bakker, 2003) de forma a obter a caracterização da população quanto
ao engagement e suas dimensões (vigor, dedicação e absorção).
Foi dirigido a todos os enfermeiros, com exceção das investigadoras, que
trabalham num ACeS da cidade do Porto, inseridos nas diferentes unidades
funcionais. Obteve-se uma adesão de 62,50%, o que corresponde à participação de
80 enfermeiros. Destes, 75% são do sexo feminino e 25% do sexo masculino. Têm
em média 36,67 anos, 56,20% são casados ou vivem em união de facto e 88,70%
possui como grau académico a licenciatura. A nível profissional, a maioria, 39,90%
dos enfermeiros possui a categoria de graduado, 44,80% exerce funções numa
Unidade de Cuidados de Saúde Personalizados (UCSP), adotaram como principal
modelo de trabalho de enfermagem, o modelo de enfermeiro de família (por lista
de utentes – 48,70%) e 36,30% desempenha funções de gestão.
Através dos resultados obtidos, verificamos que a subescala da satisfação
com a família, se associa positivamente com significância estatística à subescala
de dedicação r(80)=0,24 p<0,05. Além desta relação entre as duas escalas, as
variáveis sócio demográficas e profissionais que demonstraram uma relação
positiva com o engagement com significância estatística foram a idade, tempo de
serviço com r(80)=0,24, p<0,05 e r(80)=0,26 p<0,05, respetivamente e o estado
civil t(78)= -2,22 p<0,05 em que os indivíduos casados ou em união de facto
apresentam em média mais engagement (M=81,64; DP=8,76), do que os
solteiro/viúvos/divorciados (M=74,40; DP=17,62).
Podemos concluir que a satisfação com o suporte social da família se
associa positivamente á dedicação do engagement, demonstrando a…

▼ In the last few decades many municipalities have temporarily closed streets to vehicular traffic to open them to people and foster community. More recently, New York and San Francisco introduced pop-up parks to street rights-of-way, initially as plazas reclaimed from excess road space. On a smaller scale, ‘parklets’ are a response to people’s desires to repurpose parking stalls for community spaces. In June 2013, VIVA Vancouver launched its stand-alone Parklet Pilot Program. The parklet application and design process was examined using an action research case study method for one of the first parklets to be built under the program by PWL Partnership. San Francisco and Vancouver parklets were mapped and compared. Findings reveal that parklets begin as business sponsored projects and over time evolve into community partnerships. Recommendations have been developed for emerging and established programs across North America.

▼ As a high school English Language Arts teacher and literary magazine staff advisor, I have witnessed a difference in the degree of enthusiasm and
engagement with which students approach writing for their classes, and writing for the their own purposes. Typically, students are more authentically engaged in their self-initiated writing. This study uses a grounded theory approach to explore how and why avid young writers write to discover ways in which classroom writing programs can be made more authentic. Through interviews with five young writers who were actively writing outside of school, I was able to discover key findings about the identities and practices of these young writers and the implications of these findings for the teaching of writing in high school English Language Arts classes.

▼ This thesis aims to contribute to the theoretical advancement in our understandingof the antecedents and outcomes of employee engagement through introducing anew theoretical model developed by integrating the conservation of resources(COR) theory (Hobfol,1989) the job demands-resources (JD-R) model (Bakker &Demerouti, 2007) and the broaden-and-build (B&B) theory of positive emotions(Fredrickson, 1998). Through this approach, the study identified and examinedfactors influencing employee engagement among academics working in public andprivate universities in Tanzania, and the outcomes associated with having theseengaged academic employees. Job and organization resources in the form of jobcharacteristics, perceived organizational support, organizational justice andrewards; personal resources in the form of intrinsic motivation; and job attitudes inthe form of job satisfaction and affective commitment were assessed as the possibleantecedents to employee engagement. Organizational citizenship behavior andreduced turnover intentions were assessed as the possible outcomes of employeeengagement. In addition, the study tested whether belonging to either a public orprivate university can influence the engagement levels of the academic employees. Using 232 cross-sectional survey responses from academic employees, a series ofmultiple regression analyses and independent t-tests were conducted to test theproposed hypotheses. Findings suggest that some of the proposed resources andjob attitudes significantly predicted employee engagement. Moreover, employeeengagement was found to predict organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) andreduced turnover intentions. Finally, there appeared to be a significant difference inthe levels of engagement of academic employees working in private universitiescompared to those working in public universities. The results of this study havetheoretical implications with regards to our approach in assessing employeeengagement, and practical implication to organizations aiming to have an engagedworkforce, all of which are discussed.

▼ In this thesis, we present a qualitative exploration of how video bloggers (vloggers) achieve audience engagement in their vlogging. Engagement is a crucial factor for developing relationships between content providers and consumers, and for the quality of consumers' experience with media products such as online videos. Previous research in marketing and media studies suggests that achieving engagement with their audience is significant for the success of vloggers' careers, such as obtaining large fan bases on YouTube and other social media sites. However, how vloggers achieve engagement is rarely explored, and their audience engagement has rarely been clearly defined. We view vlog audience engagement as having two facets: consumer engagement and media engagement. This thesis applies theories of both customer and media engagement to the exploration of vlog consumption. By investigating three factors of vlogs - content, context, and presence - we address the question of how vloggers achieve audience engagement. We argue these three elements to be key to constructing audience engagement. We employ a case study research with a qualitative content analysis method applied to video samples from four well-known YouTube vloggers. Our results suggest that vlog audience engagement can be addressed through both customer and media engagement theories, which can help to account for vlogger-audience relationships beyond video consumption and audience experience during video viewing. To obtain consumer engagement, vloggers can use interaction, self-presentation, information management, and rewards in their vlog content. Vloggers' execution of these engagement factors in their content can also be conditioned by the vlogging context, namely the context of vlogger, audience, physical environment, social environment, and medium. Furthermore, sensory and social elements may evoke aspects of presence to contribute to media engagement. Sensory elements are colour, camera usage, image quality, and audio quality; social elements are the vlogger's eye contact, facial expressions, conversations and gestures. By applying both customer and media engagement theories to explore vlog audience engagement, this thesis bridges gaps regarding the application of engagement theories explicitly to vlogging. It indicates that vlogs are a useful medium to encourage audience engagement both inside and beyond vlog consumption. Our results suggest that customer engagement factors can be added to vlog content to encourage vlogger-audience connections beyond video consumption. We also indicate that context can influence the production of related customer engagement factors in vlog content. Using presence determinants in video production may affect vlog viewers' direct consumption experience for media engagement. This thesis provides a way to substantially understand vlog audience engagement by considering both viewers' video consumption experiences and the building of vlogger-audience relationships. The thesis also offers new directions for researchers to…

▼ Automatic detection of
engagement in human-human and human-machine in dyadic and multiparty interaction scenarios is important in evaluating the success of communication.
Engagement detection has a wide range of applications including monitoring in spoken dialogue systems, event detection in conversations, and user satisfaction detection using designated devices. However, pre-processing approaches and knowledge of relevant features for
engagement level recognition (for example feature normalization and until now unexplored facial features) are required for a robust learning method to model
engagement, as well as explore real-time automatic conversational
engagement. In this research we sequentially 1/ build an
engagement corpus, 2/ analyse the annotation of
engagement, 3/ investigate useful non-verbal features and approaches to model
engagement dynamically and sequentially. The final goal is to automatically detect and recognize
engagement in a spontaneous human-human conversation and human-machine interaction. In this work,
engagement is studied using non-verbal features, in particular, visual – auditory features and machine learning methods for
engagement level recognition. The proposed
engagement prediction paradigm with advanced results, new features, novel learning models and speaker dependency effects are documented in this thesis.

Early Childhood Education Students' Experiences of Engaging with Academic Text.

▼ Academic text is viewed in most university environments as a tool for supporting student learning which generates knowledge, skills and the capacity to critique ideas.
Yet there is little research undertaken to understand early childhood education (ECE) students’ experiences and beliefs of engaging with academic text. Therefore, in order to
understand this specific group of students’ text
engagement practices and beliefs, this ethnographic research followed a group of ten third-year ECE students at Victoria University in Wellington New Zealand through one course of their undergraduate study.
The researcher collected data using ethnographic methods (including a non-traditional visual participatory method of identity portfolio collages) to identify patterns which help
understand students’ beliefs and experiences of engaging with academic text. Based on social learning theories, the research examined the influence of student identity and cultural context on their motivation and interest in engaging with academic text. The study found that while this group of ECE students reported valuing academic text for a number of reasons, they were most likely to engage with assigned text for assessment
purposes. The prevalent use of a surface learning approach, skim reading, when reading academic text also left students feeling frustrated with the reading they completed
during their programme. Group expectations of reading mainly for assessment and a lack of text
engagement by practicing teachers they encountered also encouraged these students, who hold positive reader identities, to limit their
engagement with academic
text. The results from this study indicate that students and educators can examine ways to increase student motivation to engage deeply with academic text on a more regular
basis for students to achieve deeper and more meaningful learning experiences.
