▼ Augmented reality (AR) technology is becoming increasingly used in marketing as a tool for enhancing consumer experience. Developed and defined in the fields of computer science and human-computer interaction, AR technology simulates an overlay of virtual annotations in the physical environment and interacts with it in real- time (Azuma et al., 2001). Some popular examples of AR include virtual mirrors (Ray Ban, ModiFace) and smartphone applications that simulate products such as furniture (IKEA). Despite its increasing deployment in marketing, related academic research about the significance of AR for consumer experience and its impact on consumer behavior has been scarce. This thesis approaches this gap in the literature by studying media characteristics of AR and examining their impact on consumer affective, cognitive and behavioral responses, following the approach of Theory of Interactive Media Effects by Sundar et al. (2015). Throughout a series of four articles, it aims to define salient media characteristics of AR technology and evaluate how they alter consumer experience. The 1st article examines to which extent AR shares media characteristics of other interactive technologies and how these characteristics – namely interactivity, modality, hypertextuality, connectivity, location-specificity, mobility, virtuality – influence consumer responses. Based on a literature review, a research agenda is proposed that identifies the knowledge gaps related to the impact of AR on various types of consumer responses. For example, it suggests that future research should investigate: how lower levels of hypertextuality in an AR app influence consumer satisfaction and exploratory behavior; how can AR represent a social experience, given that little connectivity is present in the current AR apps; what combinations of modality in terms of text, visuals and audio are most effective for AR; to which extent consumers perceive AR apps to be interactive and how that impacts their experience. Finally, the research agenda also underlines the importance of investigating the AR media characteristic augmentation (Preece et al., 2015), absent in previous interactive technologies. The 2nd article focuses on two salient media characteristics of AR apps – interactivity and augmentation. It shows that the presence of AR does not translate into an app being perceived as more interactive in comparison to a non-AR app in terms of control and responsiveness. On the other hand, the study offers first evidence that perceived augmentation is significantly higher for AR apps than for non-AR apps and that it represents a suitable psychological correlate (Sundar et al., 2015) for measuring the perception of AR characteristics that set it apart from other technologies. Two experimental studies demonstrate that perceived augmentation impacts the level of immersion into flow, which then mediates the impact of perceived augmentation on consumer attitude towards the app and behavioral intentions to use it again and talk about it. Based on the previous… Advisors/Committee Members: Andreina (Dir.), Ivan (Codir.).

▼ This study examines the relationships between three dimensions of principal instructional leadership in the context of four school districts implementing standards-based instructional reforms in middle school mathematics. It investigates the degree to which the depth of principals’ vision for standards-based mathematics instruction and the extent of their involvement in instruction influence the expectations that mathematics teachers perceive for their standards-based practice. Analysis first examines the validity of a subject-specific version of a survey-based scale for principal involvement, using a multi-level Item Response Theory (IRT) model. Validity is generally supported, though the scale would benefit from items designed to measure higher levels of the involvement construct. Results show that, overall, subject-specific leadership for standards-based math instruction appears to follow similar patterns to that of instructional leadership across an entire school, while also posing some additional challenges for principals. A rubric for principal expectations for standards-based mathematics instruction is then developed. Thirdly, several elements of principal vision of mathematics instruction are measured. Then, a hierarchical generalized linear model (HGLM) is used to test hypotheses about the extent to which principals’ instructional involvement and vision predict teachers’ perceptions of expectations for standards-based instructional practices. The explanatory model indicates that the principal’s vision for standards-based mathematics instruction has a significant predictive effect on teachers’ perceptions of standards-based instructional expectations, and the model accounts for 50% of between-school variance. However, the means through which the principal’s vision influences teachers’ perception of expectations is unclear. No association is evident between the tasks of the principal involvement scale and the degree to which teachers report instructional expectations aligned with the goals of standards-based instruction. Among the limitations to the study: The involvement measure appears sensitive to principal involvement in instruction for the purpose of achieving multiple goals. Additionally, the expectations perceived by teachers tend to be form-oriented and the ability to extrapolate to function-oriented expectations may be limited. Finally, vision and expectations variables are both cognitive measures; associations with actual classroom practice may differ. Advisors/Committee Members: Thomas M. Smith (Committee Chair).

▼ Given the typical structure of graduate programs, the importance of mentoring relationships in higher education seems almost intuitive. Many programs assign academic advisors to their students upon admission; however, there are few rules to govern that relationship. Previous research has shown that a positive mentoring relationship experience in graduate school leads to more publications, greater networking ability, more career mobility and greater satisfaction with the program (Anderson, 2005). Before we are able to create “positive mentoring experiences”, we first need to understand what makes the experience positive. Creating a theoretically-derived scale geared specifically toward graduate students would allow researchers to better understand the complexities of the relationship. Administrators in higher education can then more thoughtfully construct their programs in order to take advantage of the advisor-advisee relationship. The Mentoring Effectiveness Scale (Stinson, 2012) assesses the quality of the mentoring relationship from the perspective of the protégés using five subscales: Protégé Career Development Support, Academic Subject Knowledge Support, Emotional Support, Role Model Support, and Perceived Mentor Benefits. The Mentoring Effectiveness Scale has undergone initial validation and demonstrates promising psychometric properties; however, more research is needed in order to confirm its factor structure and ensure that it is a valid measure of graduate student mentoring relationships. The purpose of the present study was to complete the next step in validation by confirming the factor structure and psychometric properties established in the initial stages of development. The following hypotheses were made: (a) results of a CFA will support the five- factor structure of the Mentoring Effectiveness Scale; (b) scores of the Mentoring Effectiveness Scale will be moderately positively correlated with the Advising Satisfaction Scale (Rice et al., 2009); (c) protégés with a male mentor will report more career development support; (d) protégés in sex-matched dyads will report more role model support; and (e) protégés in ethnicity matched dyads will report more role model support. The first hypothesis was supported, as results of a maximum likelihood Confirmatory Factor Analysis indicated that a five-factor structure was an acceptable fit to the data. Moderate positive correlations were found between Mentoring Effectiveness Scale scores and the Advising Satisfaction Scale, supporting the second hypothesis. The third hypothesis was not supported, with protégés of female mentors reporting more career development support. No significant results were found for sex or ethnicity matching with regard to the Mentoring Effectiveness Scale. Advisors/Committee Members: Lopez, Frederick G. (advisor), Horn, Catherine L.

본 연구는 암환자의 독특한 외상후 성장경험을 반영한 암환자의 외상후 성장 측정 도구를 개발하기 위한 방법론적 연구이다. 암환자의 외상후 성장과 관련된 문헌고찰 및 외상후 성장을 경험한 암생존자를 대상으로 포커스 그룹과 일대일 심층면담을 실시하여 확인된 구성요인인 ‘대인관계’, ‘개인강점’, ‘새로운 가능성’, ‘삶에 대한 감사’, ‘영적 변화’, ‘대처기술’, ‘삶의 의미’로 본 연구의 개념적 틀을 개발하였다. 개념적 틀에 따라 총 35개의 예비문항을 추출하였으며, 2회의 전문가 내용 타당도 검정과 문항검토를 거쳐 본 조사를 위한 최종 27문항을 선정하였다. 자료수집은 수도권 1개병원에서 암진단을 받은 후 6개월과 18개월 이내인 만 20세 성인 암환자 150명을 대상으로 하였으며 수집된 자료 150부를 자료분석하였다. 구성타당도 검정을 위해 문항분석, 탐색적 요인분석, 문항의 수렴타당도와 판별타당도 검정을 사용하였다. 문항분석에 따라 4문항이 제거된 23문항에 대해 탐색적 요인분석을 실시하여 5개요인 23문항을 도출하였다. 5개요인의 설명력은 67.5%로 본 도구가 암환자의 외상후 성장을 충분히 설명하고 있음이 확인되었다. 제 1요인은 6개 문항으로 구성된 ‘새로운 가능성’, 제 2요인은 5개 문항으로 구성된 ‘대처기술’, 제 3요인은 5개 문항으로 구성된 ‘삶의 소중함’, 제 4요인은 4개 문항으로 구성된 ‘대인관계’, 제 5요인은 3개 문항으로 구성된 ‘개인강점’이다. 준거타당도는 개발된 암환자의 외상후 성장 측정 도구 총점과 Tedeschi와 Calhoun (1996)의 Posttraumatic Growth Inventory(PTGI)의 총점과의 상관계수를 확인하였으며 .83(p<.001)으로 매우 높게 나타났다. 그리고 선행연구와 같이 Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General(FACT-G)로 측정한 건강관련 삶의 질(r=.45, p<.001)과는 정적인 상관관계, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale(HADS)로 측정한 불안(r=-.23, p<.001) 및 우울(r=-.34, p<.001)과는 부적 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타나 본 연구에서 개발된 암환자의 외상후 성장 측정 도구의 준거타당도가 검정되었다. 내적일관성 신뢰도 검정 결과 암환자의 외상후 성장의 전체 Cronbach's α 계수는 .94, 하부척도는 .80-.88로 도구의 신뢰도가 확보되었음을 확인하였다. 인구사회학적 및 질병 특성에 따른 암환자의 외상후 성장 평균점수의 차이를 확인한 결과, 모든 변수에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없는 것으로 나타나 보편적으로 사용할 수 있는 도구임이 입증되었다. 결론적으로, 본 연구를 통해 개발된 암환자의 외상후 성장 측정 도구는 암환자의 특성이 반영된 도구로써 신뢰도와 타당도가 높은 것으로 입증되었다. 본 도구는 암환자의 외상후 성장정도를 파악하고 외상후 성장을 증진시키는 중재를 개발하는데 유용하게 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

▼ The current study examines the construct of immigrant American identity in second-generation Asian Americans who are college students. Current research on defining what American identity is has been political in nature and has not taken into account cultural or psychological constructs (Schildkraut, 2007). Similarly, the current literature on ethnic identity, acculturation, and personal identity in immigrants has been somewhat singularly faceted (Berry, 1997). Often the focus has been mainly on first generation immigrants, while the complexities faced by second-generation immigrants have been ignored. Theoretical research shows that personal identity, ethnic identity, and national identity are pivotal to developing a sense of what it means to be American as a second-generation immigrant (Phinney, Horenczyk, Liebkind, & Vedder, 2001). Thus, this study created 70 items based on Phinney and colleagues’ (2001) model; these items were based in sociopolitical literature (Citrin, Reingold, & Green, 1990; Schildkraut, 2007), ethnic identity literature (Phinney, 1992; Phinney & Devich-Navarro, 1997; Rumbaut, 2004), country of origin influences (Hussain, 2013), acculturation theory (Berry, 1997), and Asian ethnicity literature (James, 1997; Kao & Hebert, 2006; Qin, 2008). Initial item reduction included a bout of peer review (reduced to 43 items) and a pilot study (reduced to 34 items). Main data collection was conducted at a large public university with 206 participants who self-identified as second-generation Asians. Principal component analysis demonstrated a four factor solution with an Eigenvalue set to two, with 34.42% variance explained. Items were reduced to 21 items based on factor loadings. The overall internal consistency of this 21 item scale was good (α = 0.70). Theoretical and psychometric implications of a four factor scale are discussed. Advisors/Committee Members: Olenchak, F.

▼ The purpose of the study was to develop a scale to measure self-sexualization. There was a need for a new scale development, due to the lack of consistency in defining and operationalizing the concept, issues of validity inherent in the existing scales, and shortcomings in measuring the possible dimensions underlying the concept. The study population was young adult women between 21 and 29 years old, living in the U.S, and who were familiar with the American culture. The concept of self-sexualization was defined based on the definition of sexualization by APA (2009): the four conditions of sexualization by APA were adapted to define self-sexualization. A mixed-methods research design with nine steps was used to gather validity evidence in the process of scale development. Three content experts evaluated the test blueprint which included the definition of self-sexualization. Based on the expert’s feedback on the test blueprint, a test specification and assessment items were developed. The assessment items were reviewed by three individuals who presented the study population before sending them to experts for review. Three experts reviewed the test specification and assessment items. Then, the revised items were reviewed by 10 individuals who represented the study population through interviews. Prior to moving into a qualitative method, a pre-test interview was conducted with four individuals. Internet based survey encompassing assessment items was pilot tested among the members of Amazon MTurk. From the field test, data from 601 participants were collected and was split randomly into two groups. With the first set of 301, a series of CTT, CFA, and IRT analyses were conducted to select items for the final scale. The structure of the final scale was verified using data from the remaining 300 participants. The four scales assessing the four dimensions of self-sexualization resulted and produced empirical evidence for the scales. The first scale comprised of six items assessed the degree to which a woman has favorable attitudes toward sexual objectification of herself. The second scale comprised of five items assessed the degree to which a woman relates her sexual desirability to her self-esteem. The third scale comprised of six items assessed the degree to which a woman equates her physical attractiveness with being sexy. The fourth scale comprised of nine items assessed the degree to which a woman contextualizes her sexual boundaries at bars, clubs, or parties. Suggestions on how to use the scale, limitations of the study, and avenues for future research were discussed

▼ Brand equity is perhaps the most important marketing concept in both academia and practice. The term came into use during the late 1980s; and the importance of conceptualizing, measuring, and managing brand equity has grown rapidly in the eyes of practitioners and academics alike. This has resulted in several often-divergent view-points on the dimensions of brand equity, the factors that influence it, the perspectives from which it should be studied, and the ways to measure it. Many different definitions and ways to measure brand equity have been proposed, and most of them are based upon the definition: the added value with which a given brand endows a product. The two most influential conceptualizations of brand equity are Aaker and Keller. Aaker defines brand equity as a set of brand assets and liabilities linked to a brand, its name and symbol, that add to or subtract from the value provided by a product or service to a firm and/or to that firm’s customers. Keller defines consumer-based brand equity (CBBE) as the differential effect of brand knowledge on consumer response to the marketing of the brand. Currently, all research on brand equity has used the same conceptualization of the construct based on previously determined dimensions with no attempt to argue their validity. Given the importance of the concept of brand equity in marketing, as well as the need for the measurement of brand equity, the literature lacks an empirically based consumer-perceived brand equity scale. Since the brand is the consumer’s idea, the consumer is an active participant in the creation of equity for the brand. So if we want to understand and manage the intangible equity directly, we have to have the consumer’s help. This dissertation enriches and strengthens the current knowledge on brand equity by developing a new conceptualization and scale determined by dimensions that consumers perceive. The new Consumer-Perceived Consumer-Based Brand Equity Scale is made up of five dimensions: quality, preference, social influence, sustainability, and leadership. Previous conceptualizations of brand equity have discussed dimensions that are consumer descriptors. Since perceived brand equity is the value that consumers perceive in the brand, this conceptualization presents dimensions that are brand characteristics. The new robust scale contributes both to the theoretical understanding of consumer-based brand equity measurement, as well as assisting managers, or brand ambassadors, in measuring brand equity and developing successful brand strategies. The value of a consumer-perceived, consumer-based brand equity scale suggests a number of new directions for study and elaboration in what is certain to be a compelling stream of research with vast implications for both theory and practice.

▼ The reported study was conducted to develop a reliable and valid scale to measure the construct of trust in advertising. A multi-stage research project was conducted: (1) general consumer and advertising expert interviews were conducted to identify initial items; (2) a survey of 260 college students was executed to assess reliability of the scale; (3) a survey of 259 non-student adults was performed to test the reliability and validity of the scale; and (4) the development of a 20-item Likert format scale (the ADTRUST scale) to capture and measure the concept of trust in advertising. The ADTRUST scale showed high reliability and demonstrated concurrent, convergent, discriminant, and nomological validity. The research found that trust in advertising is a multi-dimensional construct with four distinct components: Reliability, Usefulness, Affect, and Willingness to Rely On. Thus, the construct of trust in advertising should be operationalized as the combination of (a) consumer perception of reliability and usefulness of advertising, (b) consumer affect toward advertising, and (c) consumer willingness to rely on advertising. The ADTRUST scale proved itself to be a valid measure of trust in advertising in the context of two different media: broadcast media and print media. Consumer trust in advertising,measured with the ADTRUST scale, varies across specific advertising media types. Five ad-media were examined: television, newspapers, radio, magazines, and the Internet. The results of ANOVA indicate that trust in advertising is significantly lower for Internet advertising than for the other media types. Across all five media investigated, media credibility was consistently associated with media-specific ad-trust, indicating that trust in a medium and trust in advertising in that medium are directly related. The significance of the results is discussed in relation to the research literature. Implications of the findings are discussed and limitations and suggestions for future research are presented.

▼ Liminal Leadership is a new, adaptive leadership paradigm (Shaw-VanBuskirk, Lim, & Jeong, 2019). Liminal is a Latin word that means at a threshold or boundary; betwixt or between spaces. Liminal Leadership occurs when an individual leads ‘betwixt or between’ work units, culture, ethnicities, languages, generations, nations, time zones, and labor laws. Liminal Leadership is unique in that it seeks to articulate the extrinsic and intrinsic characteristics of those who lead in liminality. While liminality, used in the anthropological sense, is a temporary state between two thresholds (Hawkins & Edwards, 2015; Turner, 1969), organizational literature has now show that it is an ongoing or permanent state in many organizations (Cunha & Cabral-Cardos, 2006; Lindsay, 2010). This calls for individuals who can navigate the ambiguity of constant transition that exists in these organizations. It also heightens the need for the research undertaken to identify the characteristics in those individuals who can lead in these situations. The Liminal Leadership model was developed following an exhaustive, integrated literature review. Liminal Leadership was compared with other leadership models which bore similarities. From this comparison, a framework of characteristics was developed that organized into four dimensions; adaptive, directive, relational, and intrinsic. The Liminal Leadership Scale was developed utilizing a 43-item survey distributed via email, social media platforms, and mTurk. Two samples were drawn. Exploratory factor analysis was used on the first sample and Confirmatory factor analysis on the second sample. Additionally, correlation analysis was completed to look at the impact culture, generational affiliation, and educational background would have on the data. The final result is validation of a 43-item instrument Liminal Leadership Scale.

▼ This dissertation contains three essays that develop and test a new construct, citizenship crafting. Citizenship crafting describes employee-initiated behaviors and cognitions that seek to enhance/continue or diminish/eliminate employee citizenship behaviors so that they better align with the employee’s needs, motives, and preferences. Engaging in organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) results in both personal costs and benefits for employees. The aim of these papers is to advance our understanding of how employees deal with the personal consequences of OCB and to demonstrate that those who craft their citizenship are able to reap more personal benefits from OCB and reduce the personal costs. These essays seek to advance both OCB and crafting research. In Essay 1, I develop the construct of citizenship crafting. First, I deductively define citizenship crafting and differentiate it from the related construct of job crafting. I then propose the different dimensions of job crafting and explain how they are all important ways that employees craft their OCB. Following my discussion of the dimensions of citizenship crafting, I propose how citizenship crafting moderates the relation between OCB and employee personal outcomes. Specifically, I describe how citizenship crafting enhances the positive personal outcomes of OCB and diminishes the negative personal outcomes of OCB. I also discuss how the type of OCB is relevant for understanding citizenship crafting. In particular, crafting resource-demanding OCBs benefits employees more than crafting non-resource-demanding OCBs. I conclude by discussing the implications my research has for theory and practice and outline some directions for future research. In Essay 2, I build on Essay 1 and empirically develop the citizenship crafting scale (CCS). Using three samples, I establish content adequacy, convergent validity, divergent validity, and a nomological network. Furthermore, in this paper, I empirically demonstrate the difference between job crafting and citizenship crafting. In Essay 3, I use the CCS developed in Essay 2 to test specific ideas proposed in Essay 1. Specifically, I examine how citizenship crafting moderates the relationship between OCB and employee well-being, using two indicators of employee well-being (citizenship fatigue and citizenship meaningfulness) Drawing on self-regulation theory, I show how citizenship crafting enhances the positive relationship between OCB and positive indicators of employee well-being and how it reduces the negative relation between OCB and negative indicators of employee well-being. I conclude by discussing the implications my research has for theory and practice.

▼ Service sabotage refers to employees' deliberate actions that negatively affect service, functional quality, employee-customer rapport, and company performance. Almost all frontline employees in the hospitality industry have witnessed service sabotage behaviors, and 85% admitted to engaging in such misbehaviors. Despite the prevalence and profound impact of service sabotage, it has been a challenge for researchers to measure the construct and understand specific and contextualized restaurant service sabotage behaviors. Thus, the purpose of this dissertation was to develop a reliable and valid scale to measure restaurant service sabotage. A mixed methods research design was applied. A qualitative study was conducted to explore prevalent restaurant service sabotage behaviors and to generate an item pool for the initial scale, followed by two quantitative studies with two different groups of non-managerial frontline employees in full-service restaurants to refine and validate the scale. Guided by critical incident technique, 243 critical incidents were derived from the in-depth interviews (n = 26). Of those, 28 explicit types of restaurant service sabotage behaviors were identified and further categorized into three behavioral groups: targeting customers, colleagues, and restaurants. In conjunction with scale items extracted from related measures, an initial instrument consisting of 39 items was developed and administered to an online restaurant employee panel by hiring a professional research firm. A total of 419 usable responses were collected and analyzed using principal axis factoring with a promax rotation. Results revealed a 13-item scale with three dominant factors. To validate the scale, 463 usable responses were gathered for data analyses. Results of the confirmatory factor analyses indicated a good model fit of the three-factor model, Chi-square/df=3.15, GFI=.96, CFI=.97, NFI=.95, and RMSEA=.07 while reducing the scale items from 13 to 10 and supporting the scale's dimensionality. Tests for validating construct validity were all fully supported. Cronbach’s alpha coefficients were all greater than .70, showing internal consistency of the scale. This psychometrically valid and conceptually sound scale may be applied in future restaurant service sabotage research and may stimulate additional studies to advance the theory and explore the criterion network. Implications, limitations, and direction for future research are discussed. Advisors/Committee Members: Junehee Kwon.

▼ Research has revealed forgiveness to be a useful pro-social tool for responding to interpersonal transgressions, with a multitude of intra- and interpersonal benefits for both victims and offenders. Despite this, many victims experience difficulty overcoming transgressions and moving towards forgiveness. Thus, to enable and encourage the process in applied and personal settings, it is important to investigate why such individuals do not forgive. To date, ample research has investigated the various social-cognitive, relational, and individual difference variables that may inhibit forgiveness, yet few studies have directly examined the rationalisations behind the unforgiving response, an oversight that presents a substantial gap in the literature. By investigating the reasons victims provide for not forgiving their offenders, research may shed light on barriers to forgiveness that transcend information provided by forgiveness predictors alone. Such research may improve treatment outcomes within applied settings by helping facilitators identify and target the specific cognitions underlying their client’s unwillingness, or inability, to forgive. Accordingly, this thesis aimed to identify salient barriers to forgiveness following interpersonal transgressions, based on past theoretical and qualitative work, and operationalise them into a valid and reliable self-report Barriers to Forgiveness (BTF) measure. The BTF was developed across three studies, utilising 894 participants. Studies 1 and 2 involved the development and refinement of a seven-factor BTF, and the assessment of the measure’s reliability and validity against theoretically-relevant state and trait variables. In addition, Study 2 investigated the factorial invariance of the seven-factor BTF against two independent samples differing in the obligatory nature of the victim-offender relationship. Results from the two studies suggested that the barriers may differ in the purposeful nature of the unforgiving response, with three barriers reflecting an inability to forgive the offender, caused by their blameworthy role in perpetrating a severe, immoral norm violation; and three others reflecting an intentional withholding of forgiveness, in order to punish the offender and protect themselves from future harm and ego damage. Accordingly, the three data sets were reanalysed within Chapter 4 to determine the accuracy of this hierarchical Can’t Forgive-Won’t Forgive structure in explaining BTF interrelationships, and identify the variables that best predict endorsement of the two superordinate barriers. Study 3 investigated endorsement of the superordinate barriers within an experimental setting, manipulating the severity of the transgression—theorised to differentiate the two barriers—and investigating the impact of barrier endorsement on victim forgiveness. Results across the studies suggested that both the seven-factor BTF and the hierarchical Can’t Forgive-Won’t Forgive model are valid and reliable self-report measures of situational barriers to forgiveness, which… Advisors/Committee Members: Strelan, Peter Gerhard (advisor), Burns, Nicholas Ralph (advisor), School of Psychology (school).

▼ Political solidarity is often key to addressing societal inequities and injustice (Mallett, Huntsinger, Sinclair, & Swim, 2008; Scholz, 2009). Yet social psychology is without a common definition or comprehensive measure of this construct, complicating advancements in this burgeoning field. To address these gaps, across five computer-based studies of Canadian university student samples, I created and validated the Political Solidarity Measure (PSM). I conceptualized political solidarity as consisting of three factors: allyship with a disadvantaged outgroup, a connection to their cause, and a commitment to working with them to achieve social change. In Study 1, 1,594 participants completed the initial 30-item pool. A series of exploratory factor analyses, along with indices of factor retention (e.g., when m = 3, RMSEA.LB < .06, AIC Δi < 1), supported the three-factor model. I retained three items per factor to create the 9-item PSM used in subsequent studies. Confirming this factor structure, a three-factor model adequately fit data collected for Study 2 (N = 273; Robust RMSEA = 08; Robust CFI = .97); I thus retained the three-factor model. In Study 3 (N = 259), I found evidence of the PSM’s convergent validity (rs > |.19|, ps < .03), discriminant validity (rs < |.10|, ps > .23), and its medium-term (three to six month) retest reliability, r(254) = .62, p < .001. Study 4 (N = 130) also assessed retest reliability, but in the short-term (a three-week period), r(121) = .60, p < .001. Finally, I demonstrate the PSM’s predictive validity in Study 5 (N = 221). Controlling for modern racism, PSM scores predicted collective action intentions and behavior benefitting the outgroup: Participants who reported higher political solidarity donated more to the outgroup’s cause, β = .25, t(215) = 3.21, p = .002, and were more likely to agree to create a message of support, than not agree, b(SE) = 1.09 (0.27), p < .001, OR = 2.98, 95% CI [1.76, 5.05]. The PSM will enable measurement of political solidarity across issues and time, facilitate comparisons of interventions to shift political solidarity, and add to knowledge of intergroup relations and social change.

▼ Brand advocacy occurs when consumers who feel very passionately about a brand seek to promote it to others and defend it against its naysayers. These consumers are valuable to brands as information between consumers is more easily and rapidly shared than ever before, and as consumer distrust of brand-sponsored messages is high. As a result, brands are dependent upon their brand advocates to leverage the perceived reliability of peer recommendations to recruit new customers. However, thus far in the marketing literature, an adequate conceptualization of brand advocacy has failed to emerge. Instead, when discussed, brand advocacy is often measured using a proxy variable such as positive word-of-mouth. It is the supposition of the author that these two constructs are not synonymous and using one as a proxy for the other severely limits researchers understanding of the brand advocacy and its impact. The goal of this research is to define brand advocacy and develop a valid scale to measure it. Following Churchills (1979) paradigm for scale development, a series of four studies were undertaken to validate the new scale. The first two studies are qualitative in nature and help identify the domains of brand advocacy. Based on the results of the first study, a series of depth interviews, and the second study, an open-ended questionnaire, the following definition of brand advocacy is put forth: <i>Brand advocacy is a combination of customer-motivated behaviors, including proactively recommending the brand and defending the brand against detractors, intended to maintain the customers relationship with the brand and promote it to others</i>. The construct was determined to be a higher-order construct comprising two distinct sets of behaviors that address advocates need to not only defend the brand to naysayers but also to proactively spread positive brand communications to others. The third and fourth studies use quantitative data to complete the scale development process by proposing and validating a nine-item scale to measure the multi-dimensional construct of brand advocacy as well as provide evidence that it is a distinct construct from PWOM. The results of this research provide a definition and valid scale of brand advocacy. Advisors/Committee Members: Nicole Ponder (chair), Joel E. Collier (committee member), Jason E.

▼ Sense of emptiness is a common human experience and a prevalent mental health issue, included as a diagnostic criterion and/or associated with several mental health disorders. Despite its prevalence and clinical relevance, clinicians are still in need of a clear and consistent way of understanding and assessing this phenomenon, as there has been limited empirical research concerning this topic. Therefore, the present study focused on the development and validation of a measure, Multidimensional Sense of Emptiness Scale [MSES], to provide researchers and mental health practitioners with a method to accurately assess and diagnose mental health issues associated with emptiness. The initial step of this study was to explore the factorial structure of the emerging instrument within a sample of 405 college students, using principle axis factoring with a direct oblimin rotation. This analysis resulted in the emergence of a four-factor solution, explaining 91.18 % of the variance: (a) Sense of Inner Emptiness [SIE], (b) Sense of Meaninglessness [SM], (c) Sense of Absence of Relatedness [SAR], and (d) Sense of Spiritual Emptiness [SSE]. The next step was to examine the internal consistency reliability coefficients of the MSES and the emerged subscales. Reliability estimates of .98, .98, .97, .98, and .97 were for the MSES as well as for the SIE, the SM, the SAR, and the SSE, respectively. With regard to establishing evidence based on relations to other variables, student scores on the MSES correlated significantly with the Suicide Probability Scale. In addition, statistically significant negative relationships were found between scores on the MSES and the Brief Resilience Scale, the Adult Trait Hope Scale, and the Meaning in Life Questionnaire. The results derived from our psychometric evaluation provide a basis for conceptualizing emptiness as a multidimensional experience as well as indicate substantial utility of the 27-item MSES in counseling research and clinical practice as a valid and reliable instrument for assessing young adults’ levels of experienced emptiness. Further, we believe the high correlation identified between the MSES and the SPS allows this new instrument to be considered for suicide screening and assessment as a marker for suicide attempts.

▼ Elementary school children engage in multiple social interactions each day. These frequent interactions are a positive experience for most children; however, a minority of children experience peer rejection (Coie, Dodge, & Coppotelli, 1982). Multiple methods exist to assess for peer rejection, but none that include assessment of plausible etiological factors. Understanding the etiology of peer rejection may be the first step in developing effective intervention and preventative strategies and may lead to a more targeted approach (Coie, Miller-Johnson, & Bagwell, 2000; Mrazek & Haggerty, 1994). The current study aimed to address this gap through a new parent assessment tool, the Causes of Peer Rejection Scale (CPRS). The measure examines etiological factors that may be contributing to peer rejection with the aim of identifying areas of intervention. This study aimed to extend the literature by focusing on etiology instead of topography on a group of children who are at a higher risk for peer rejection – those with developmental disabilities. The study was a two-phase process. The first phase was the development and refinement of the CPRS through a focus group. Four parents completed an early version of the measure and provided researchers with feedback regarding items and readability. The second phase examined the psychometric properties of the measure including concurrent validity with the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (Goodman, 1997) and test-retest reliability. One hundred and fifty-five parents completed the measures for phase II. A confirmatory factor analysis was used to evaluate the proposed structure. The hypothesized model did not fit the data so an exploratory factor analysis was utilized after items were discarded. The scale fit a six-factor solution but was forced into a five-factor solution based on item loadings and theory. The five latent factors were Appearance, Speech, Problem Behaviors, Academics, and Social Skills. The measure demonstrated adequate convergent validity, Cronbach Alpha reliability, and test-retest reliability. Other research questions were answered including determining which underlying factors were related to the most negative outcomes for children. Potential contributions to the literature in addition to limitations are discussed. Advisors/Committee Members: McQuillin, Samuel D.

▼ This thesis focuses on conceptualizing and measuring brand identity in services. The lack of a wider-accepted measure of brand identity is surprising given that it a) provides meaning to the brand, makes it unique and communicates what the brand stands for (Rosengren et al., 2010), and b) is the driver of one of the four principal dimensions of brand equity, namely, brand association (Keller, 1993). Despite its acknowledged importance, brand identity measurement has received remarkably little attention, and efforts to develop a valid and comprehensive measure have been limited. While prior work on brand identity has proposed some conceptual models highlighting different facets that contribute to brand identity development, the majority of these models have not been subjected to empirical testing. This raises concerns over their robustness and validity. More importantly, the applicability of these models to a service context is not clear. For instance, the role of consumers, who participate in the service production process and interact frequently with the service providers, is hardly considered in the prior frameworks. In summary, the dearth of research studies accounting for the consumer perspective of brand identity, along with the lack of a valid and comprehensive scale to measure service brand identity, motivated this research. This thesis thus aims to, first, review and refine the concept of brand identity to account for the consumer perspective of this construct and then develop a multidimensional scale to measure service brand identity and identify its key dimensions. To fulfill the research aims, Churchill‟s (1979) paradigm was followed in conjunction with DeVellis (2003) and other scale development studies (Brakus et al., 2009; Lundstorm & Lamont, 1976). This thesis employed both qualitative and quantitative research methods to achieve the research aims. Qualitative research was undertaken to gain additional insights into the construct (e.g. consumer perspective) and to generate and purify the initial scale items. Quantitative methods were then adopted to validate and establish the final scale. Guided by the aforementioned research design, this thesis developed a service brand identity (SBI) scale consisting of five dimensions labelled: process identity, organization identity, servicescape identity, symbolic identity and communication identity. The analysis confirms that the scale is reliable, valid, and parsimonious. Further, the scale application is demonstrated by assessing and empirically establishing the association between service brand identity and brand trust and loyalty. The results support the proposition that the consumer perspective is important in understanding and developing brand identity in a service context. Relatedly, it is also shown that service elements, such as the servicescape and service process, play a key role in developing a strong brand identity for services. The key contribution of this study is the development of a psychometrically valid and reliable scale. This research extends…
