▼ The purpose of this quantitative correlational research study was to develop a better understanding of how successful principals lead and more importantly how they help their students achieve at higher levels through their role as principal. The study focused on the principal's role in providing instructional leadership as defined by Krug (1992), transformational leadership as defined by Bass and Avolio (1995), specifically in the context of elementary education, and measuring the effect these principal leadership constructs have on student achievement. The study was designed to determine if there was a benefit derived by principals who attend to at least three of the five dimensions of instructional leadership and practice at least three of the four transformational leadership behaviors. The five dimensions of instructional leadership are: defining mission, managing curriculum and instruction, supervising and supporting teaching, monitoring student progress, and promoting instructional climate. The four transformational leadership behaviors are: idealized influence, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, and individualized consideration. The study sample was drawn from public schools in Cooperative Educational Service Agencies 2–12 in the State of Wisconsin, an area that covers 90% of the state excluding the large metropolitan areas in and around Milwaukee. Results revealed no statistically significant correlations between principals who did or did not exhibit transformational and or instructional leadership and higher academic student performance. Post-hoc analysis revealed statistically significant correlational coefficients between management-by-exception passive and high student achievement r = .515 for reading, r = .479 for language arts, and r = .567 for math with n = 31 and p < .05, two tails. These findings indicate that previous research findings may be in question for both instructional leadership and transformational leadership constructs.

▼ Expectations for nonprofit organizations (NPOs) continue to increase. Additionally, it is difficult to successfully carry out the mission of organizations while dealing with decreased funding and reduced staffing. NPOs need to be operationally consistent and precise to achieve pre-defined measures of success. Many factors impact operations/effectiveness including board composition, skills of the CEO/Board of directors (BoDs), and board leadership practices. This descriptive study sought first to determine demographics of Indiana local education foundation (LEF) boards, in order to set a baseline of data to be available for reference in future research. The research also explored BoD leadership practices to determine the relationship between leadership practices by gender, as well as BoD position (i.e., president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer, executive director). A goal of this research was to contribute specifically to the field of LEFs, extending knowledge in the academic discipline of organizational leadership. This study endeavored to provide greater awareness to boards on the practices that can add value to their service experiences and organizational achievements. The Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI): Self instrument was used to collect data. The LEF population consists of nearly 6,000 nationwide; approximately 63 are located in Indiana. The sample of participants was BoDs from 29 of the 63 Indiana LEFs. Data reduction/coding were conducted through IBM software, application Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). The data were analyzed with descriptive statistics to identify characteristics of those who serve on LEF boards. The 13 demographic items focused upon BoD gender, age, race, professional background, education, and board experience. Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests were conducted to determine normality of data. Parametric (i.e., independent-samples t tests) statistics were utilized for data found to be normally distributed. Nonparametric (i.e., Mann-Whitney tests) statistics were utilized for data found not to be normally distributed. The research utilized a 95% confidence interval; statistical significance was indicated at p < .05 (2-tailed). The results revealed no significant differences in leadership practices by gender (p = .363, a value > .05; as well as no significant differences in leadership practices by board position (p = .166, a value > .05).

L’administration des Bâtiments du Roi au XVIIIème siècle est une institution au service du monarque sous la tutelle de la Maison du Roi. Elle a en charge la construction, l’entretien et la réparation des résidences et bâtiments royaux comme les châteaux de Versailles, Fontainebleau, Saint-Germain, Marly, Compiègne entre autres. A ce titre, certaines académies comme celles d’architecture, de peinture et sculpture et de France à Rome en dépendent, ainsi que les manufactures des Gobelins et de la Savonnerie. Des départements plus spécialisés comme la machine de Marly, les rigoles de Trappes et Saclay, les marbres, les pépinières en font aussi partie. Le passage de la surintendance à la direction des Bâtiments du Roi sous le duc d’Antin (1708-1726) a des conséquences essentiellement sur le pouvoir du Directeur qui perd ses prérogatives au niveau financier par rapport au surintendant. Si l’organisation bureaucratique se consolide et se rationalise, les changements sont surtout liés aux difficultés budgétaires de la monarchie qui poussent aux économies et perturbent les missions d’origine de l’administration. Il s’agit d’une étude à la fois administrative, économique, politique et sociale qui expose le fonctionnement d’une administration centrale au siècle des Lumières. La thèse présente à travers l’étude de la comptabilité, le fonctionnement et l’organisation d’une administration qui se bureaucratise tout en étant un outil politique, particulièrement pour les Directeurs qui travaillent avec le Roi. Elle présente aussi une étude du personnel et de son travail quotidien entre procédures administratives, influences de la cour et difficultés financières.

The administration of the King's Buildings in the 18th century is an institution in the service of the King under administrative supervision of Maison du Roi. It administers the building, the maintenance and upkeep of the King's residences and properties such as the Château de Versailles, Fontainebleau, Saint-Germain, Marly, and Compiègne. In this respect, some academies like those of architecture, painting and sculpture, depend on it. One can also quote as examples the Manufacture des Gobelins and de la Savonnerie. The administration also includes the Departments of the Machine de Marly, of the drains in Trappes and in Saclay, those of the marbles and the plants nurseries. The evolution from the Superintendency to the Direction under the Duc d'Antin (1708-1726) has consequences on the power of the Director mainly, who loses his financial prerogatives in relation to the superintendent. Even if the bureaucratic organisation is strengthened and rationalised indeed, the modifications are mostly due to the budget problems met by the monarchy that urged for savings and impeded the initial missions of the administration. This thesis studies the way a central administration works in the age of the Enlightenment, focusing on the administrative, economic, politic and social areas. Through a study of the accountancy, it puts forth the functioning and organisation of an…

▼ According to higher education policy experts, “Campus threat assessment is not merely a recommendation, but an emerging standard of care.” However, despite evidence of the emergence of this standard and the consistency of recommendations that comport with those made by the Virginia Tech Review Panel, college campuses continue to vary significantly in their approaches to threat-assessment protocols. This study examines the extent to which campuses in the state of Illinois do vary and seeks to understand better the reasons for that variation. This research also examines the status of threat-assessment policies and protocols being conducted on three campuses and how the implementation of recommendations that followed Virginia Tech and Northern Illinois shootings have contributed to the creation of more optimally safe campuses. The study also examines the prevalence and consistency of the barriers that impede institutional efforts to detect and mitigate campus threats of violence. Research sites included Northern Illinois University, where an incident of violence occurred in 2008, and the University of Illinois–Chicago and Illinois State University, where an incident of such magnitude has not yet occurred. The findings suggest that in states where the implementation of threat-assessment protocols and policies has been mandated by state law, campus leaders perceive these required measures to increase the preparedness of the campus environment. The research also suggests that even in Illinois, a state where such policy schemes are mandated, variation in the application of these policies and protocols persists. Findings suggest that even in states where policies are legislatively mandated, campuses continue to experience barriers to full implementation of recommendations that might lead to greater preparedness, including ambiguity regarding how best to balance the obligation to protect individual privacy and community security and to address self-harming behaviors and suicidality, the limited utility in zero-tolerance standards, institutional constraints in policy adoption and participation by the campus community, and insufficient dedication of institutional funding and support. The most significant barrier, however, was the unrealistic expectation that campus personnel be able to predict future behavior and events.

▼ This study explores private higher education and implementation of quality assurance procedures in Ghana, a country in West Africa. While focusing on the three main isomorphic classifications (coercive, mimetic and normative) of DiMaggio and Powell’s (1983) institutional theory, this study examines how regulatory measures are not only designed to enhance the quality of private higher education institutions, but also how they impact the efforts employed by private providers towards meeting quality assurance standards in the environment in which they are located. Using a qualitative methodology, participants from five private university colleges and two private chartered institutions are selected as constituting the sample for this study. In addition, quality assurance documents from the website of the Ghana’s National Accreditation Board (NAB) as well as documents from the websites of seven private higher education institutions are coded using NVivo 10 to determine the kind of efforts made by institutions to convey the message of legitimacy across to students and other clientele. Other participants are officials from the NAB, higher education specialists and retired faculty of public higher education institutions in Ghana. In general, the outcome of open-ended interviews with selected participants as well as documents analyzed found evidence of efforts private institutions are making towards meeting their quality assurance requirements through mimetic, coercive and normative isomorphism. These are indicated through institutional affiliations, conformity to mentoring (supervising) institution’s programs, quality assurance requirements and measures established in conformity to the NAB requirements. Higher education specialists advocate that a specific policy aimed at addressing shortage of faculty members in Sub-Saharan Africa should be formulated to take on a more regional dimension. The Ghanaian private higher education landscape has a number of issues including shortage of academic and non-academic staff, dependence on adjunct faculty, and non-compliance to time frame given for program and institutional accreditation. These issues will require a holistic approach involving the NAB and the PHEIs in order to find long lasting solutions. As a result of the continual growth of private higher education providers in Ghana, it is imperative that the NAB make the quality assurance process very welcoming to genuine actors.

▼ Gamified online platforms use game design elements in non-game contexts to increase users' engagement and improve their performance outcomes. In this dissertation, using data from two gamified online platforms, I study the effect of disclosing individual's performance ranking and popularity rating on different outcomes. First, I focus on an online weight-loss community which uses gamified challenges to enable users to set short-term weight-loss goals, and incentivize them to pursue their goals by sharing individuals' progress and rankings with other challenge members via leaderboards. I study the effect of participation in gamified challenges on weight-loss progress. I utilize the system GMM and Inverse Probability Weighting (IPW) approach to address endogeneity issues. The results indicate that participation in gamified challenges has a positive and significant but short-term effect on weight-loss. Moreover, participation in gamified challenges are less effective when users focus only on dietary or physical activity instructions, and more effective when users add a numeric weight-loss target to their dietary or physical activity instructions. Second, I focus on a gamified dating platform where users play a game and rank-order members of the opposite sex and are then matched based on a Stable Matching Algorithm. A key piece of information shown to users during the game is a popularity rating, ranging from one to three stars. I examine the effect of a user's popularity on her demand i.e. I quantify the causal effect of a user's star-rating on the rankings that s/he receives during the game and the likelihood of receiving messages after the game. Popularity can increase one's appeal. However, popular people are less likely to reciprocate, and hence users may strategically shade their revealed preferences for them to avoid rejection. To overcome the endogeneity between a user's star-rating and her unobserved attractiveness, I employ non-linear fixed-effects models. The results indicate that three-star users receive worse rankings during the game but receive more messages after. I link the heterogeneity across outcomes and user-level observables to the perceived severity of rejection concerns and establish strategic shading as the mechanism. Further, I show that users' rejection concerns are consistent with Step-1 bounded rationality. Advisors/Committee Members: Tan, Yong (advisor).

Degree: Science and Technology Policy, 2018, Arizona State University

▼ The amount of time and effort that university researchers spend writing grants and executing grant administration responsibilities is one of the biggest challenges for science policy. This study aims to explore the complexity of the phenomenon of burdens in the administrative procedure for principal investigators (PIs) in sponsored research. The findings make a theoretical contribution to the study of burdens and red tape by closely examining the processes in which the burdens emerge, increase, and decrease; in doing so, this research will lay the groundwork for future studies of burdens and sponsored research systems. This study assumes that burdens are embedded in the social process, not merely in the number of required documentation or time spent on the procedure. The two overarching research questions are as follows: (1) What do researchers perceive or experience as a burden in grant proposal preparation and submission in sponsored research? (2) What are the possible factors or hypotheses to explain the generation, increase, and decrease of burdens? This single case study of a large research university examines the burdens faced by university researchers as they prepare and submit grant proposals. Primary data comes from semi-structured interviews with thirty-one PIs in science and engineering schools, and four interviews with research administration staff. Based on the interview data and theoretical arguments, this study illustrates the burdens in two categories: Burdens related to the proposal system, rules, and requirements; and burdens PIs experience with pre-award staff and relations. In addition, this study assesses each PI’s burden level in terms of the number of tasks in the proposal process, and the quality of the pre-award staff and services the PI experiences. This study further examines possible contributing factors and tentative hypotheses of burdens. In the discussion, this study develops theoretical arguments about the nature and consequences of burdens and fundamental issues in the grant system, and discuss prescriptions for PIs, universities, and sponsored research systems.

▼ Planning for disasters has been linked to positive outcome in the business recovery process. However, unpreparedness for disasters is prevalent in many developing countries where most small businesses do not maintain a disaster/emergency plan. Sri Lanka in recent years has experienced upsurge in natural disasters from floods, wind storms, droughts, landslides and cyclones where the majority of small businesses experienced a slow recovery. The purpose of this qualitative multiple case study was to gain insight into the perceived barriers and challenges that small business owners in the City of Negombo (Sri Lanka) experienced when developing a disaster/emergency preparedness plan as well as factors that may motivates small businesses owners to adopt a disaster/emergency plan. The study population consists of all 1,780 small businesses located within the city of Negombo, Sri Lanka. The purposive sample included 16 small business owners for individual interviews and 11 members from business associations for three focus group discussions (each including 3-4 participants). After receiving informed consent, data were collected using semi-structured in-depth interview protocol using open ended interview questions until data saturation occurred. . To mitigate study limitations and enhance credibility of this study; prolonged engagement and persistent observation, peer debriefing, member-checking, and data triangulation, were used. The findings of this study yielded 12 distinct themes most of which were fully or partially supported by existing literature. Five themes pertaining to the barriers and challenges business owners encounter when establishing a disaster/emergency plan: lack of knowledge or know how, access to/ problems with insurance, lack of money and resources, disaster will not happen again, and it is not my responsibility. Four of the themes focused on business owners’ perceived motivators for establishing a disaster/emergency plan: reduce business losses from disasters, train staff to manage crisis situations, business continuation, and save lives. The key recommendations include local and central government authorities, (a) advocate disaster awareness to small business owners, (b) establish mechanisms for small business owners to attain relevant information to prepare for disasters, (c) provide essential resources for the small business owners to set up disaster/emergency plans, and (d) identify ways for business owners to get access to affordable and accessible disaster insurance plans.

▼ Previous research illustrated how principals effectively facilitate the development of teachers’ instructional practice through actions such as differentiating professional development, providing continuous professional development, establishing learning communities and using supervision/evaluations to help modify instruction; however, what is missing from that research is how personal/professional experiences influence specific principal behavior and actions in regards to facilitating the development of teachers’ instructional practice. The idea of school principal as teacher-educator is supported within the requirements to become a principal (ISSLC Standards, 2015) as well as within daily necessities of school leaders (Darling-Hammond, 2010; Fullan, 2012, 2014; Hargreaves & Fullan, 2013). Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers, believes the best way to get strong teachers is to adopt a “fundamentally different way of looking at teachers, how we recruit, train and support them and give them the latitude and tools and conditions to do their jobs” [emphasis added] (Layton, 2015). The question that remains is how specific experiences influence the actions of principals to focus on the development of teaches’ instructional practice. Potential influential personal or professional practices might include: principals’ teacher and administrative training and experiences, mandates from central administration vs. local needs, the context and community of school and/or the personal life experiences of the principals. Hence, it is imperative to take a closer look into what experiences influence principal actions to facilitate the development of teachers’ instructional practices. This study employed narrative inquiry methodology and analysis to examine personal and professional experiences of three selected principals who have been identified as outstanding in their field. Findings provide detailed insight into how personal and/or professional experiences influence their actions in regards to the development of teachers’ instructional practice. The results of this study unpack the journey these individuals took in becoming learning leaders of their school community. Additionally, the results are informative to the field of educational leadership.

▼ The overuse of antibiotics and consequent resistance is a common problem in medical practice worldwide. Switch therapy is a technique that can be applied to streamline antibiotic therapy reducing unnecessary prolonged Intravenous (IV) antibiotic therapy. Antibiotic switch therapy has several other benefits such as: decreasing length of hospital stay; decreasing the incidence of adverse events associated with the administration of IV antibiotics; decreasing direct and indirect hospitalisation costs while improving patients’ comfort and mobility; and decreasing the risk of acquiring nosocomial infections. Certain elements are required to make the implementation of any guideline, including a switch therapy guideline, a success and probably one of the most important is the support from a motivated multidisciplinary team. The role of such a team, in the South African context, would be filled by the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee (PTC). In addition, to make a guideline successful it should be continuously implemented. This responsibility traditionally falls to a pharmacist. In the United Kingdom (UK) and the United States of America (USA) pharmacists are used to promote the appropriate use of antibiotics in hospitals as this has shown to have several economic advantages. The objectives of the study were: to determine, by means of a survey, whether guidelines for IV to oral switch were employed in South African regional, tertiary and national government hospitals; to design and implement an IV to oral antibiotic switch therapy (IVOST) guideline for a local public sector tertiary level hospital; to evaluate the effectiveness of guideline implementation; and to capture, via a questionnaire, the perceptions of prescribers regarding antibiotic prescribing, including switch therapy. The Survey of Current IV Switch Therapy Practice Questionnaire was distributed to Responsible Pharmacists at regional, provincial tertiary and national central government hospitals to determine whether IVOST guidelines were employed in South African government hospitals. Following the survey, an IVOST Guideline was designed by the researcher in consultation with the Department of Medicine and the Department of Pharmacy. The IVOST Guideline was implemented following approval by the PTC at a local tertiary level government hospital. A presentation was held for prescribers, guideline documents were distributed, posters were placed in the medical wards and the ward pharmacist/researcher integrated the guideline into daily practice by placing “reminder stickers” in patient medical folders. A pre-implementation audit and two post-implementation audits, each consisting of 150 patient medical records, were conducted and compared to determine the effect of IVOST guideline implementation on prescribing patterns and to determine whether any changes could be sustained. The Prescriber Antibiotic Survey was then conducted to capture the perceptions of prescribers regarding antibiotic therapy, including switch therapy.

▼ The general business problem is that competitive advantage suffers because of the lack of employee engagement and employee innovative work behavior. Inability of business to determine methods or opportunities to affect levels of work engagement and innovative work behavior of employees limits the ability of the business to gain competitive advantage. The purpose of this quantitative correlational study is to examine the relationship between levels of resilience and levels of work engagement, and levels of resilience and levels of innovative work behavior. The body of literature in these three areas fails to identify a relationship between resilience and work engagement or between resilience and innovative work behavior. This proposal examined the concepts of resiliency, work engagement, and innovative work behavior to determine if a relationship exists between the three constructs building on Fredrickson’s 1998 broaden and build theory. Data was collected using an online survey tool. Participants were employed by large, for-profit U.S. based companies. The researcher employed River Sampling to collect data. Results were analyzed for completeness and incomplete surveys were not used in the data analysis. Raw data was translated into two categories of resilience (low and high), and three categories each for work engagement and innovative work behavior (low, medium, and high). The findings show a significant, positive relationship between levels of resilience and levels of work engagement, and between levels of resilience and levels of innovative work behavior. This study provides meaningful contributions to the body of literature in the areas of resilience, work engagement, and innovative work behavior by establishing a significant relationship between resilience and work engagement and between resilience and innovative work behavior. Practitioners can use the results of this study to develop new methods for improving levels of work engagement and levels of innovative work behavior by developing efforts to improve resilience.

▼ This study examines in two ways the provision of support services in outpatient substance abuse treatment (OSAT): (1) the extent to which ownership makes a difference; (2) how public policy and market conditions influence the ownership effect. Two types of support services are investigated: free treatment provision and the total number of ancillary services helping underserved populations recover from drug and alcohol abuse. Regression results suggest that nonprofit OSATs are more likely to offer free treatment and provide a wider range of ancillary services than for-profit OSATs controlling other OSAT characteristics and external conditions. Free treatment provision by nonprofits is twice as high as it is by for-profits. The number of ancillary services is 33% higher in nonprofit facilities than in for-profit facilities. Nonprofit organizations in the outpatient substance abuse treatment area perform their fundamental role serving medically, socially, and economically disadvantaged populations. At the same time, findings of the study show that public policy and market conditions moderate the ownership effect. Government funding, characteristics of states’ parity legislations, market competition with for-profit organizations, and demand for public services impact nonprofit OSATs’ support service provision. Each ownership responses to given policy and market conditions in different ways. This study contributes to the field by showing that ownership difference is evident in types of services offered and the level of support for disadvantaged patients. It is also a valuable addition to the literature about ownership difference in health care research. Ownership difference can better be explained by understanding interactions between ownership and external conditions such as policy and market factors. Given rising interest in comprehensive care and a wraparound approach coordinating behavioral health services with housing, employment, education, and other supports. The findings of this study provide policy makers and practitioners with valuable information about factors related to OSAT provision of support services. Future research will be directed toward the dynamics of ownership and policy interactions and the impact of the recent health care reforms on OSAT support provision.

▼ The primary purpose of the present study was to determine if a relationship existed between perceived instructional leadership behaviors of Texas public school superintendents and district performance outcomes. Preliminary steps in the study included the development of a systematic approach to defining and measuring district performance outcomes and the development of a survey instrument which would identify superintendent self-assessed instructional leadership behaviors. Surveys were sent electronically to superintendents (N=951) to assess self-perceived leadership behaviors. Variables from the Texas Academic Excellence Indicator System (AEIS) database were subjected to factor analysis to identify district performance outcomes and to quantify the district performance outcomes as factor scores. Canonical correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis were used to analyze the relationship between superintendent instructional leadership behaviors and district performance outcomes. The canonical correlation analysis revealed no evidence to support a hypothesis that a relationship existed between superintendents' instructional leadership behaviors as measured by the Superintendent Instructional Leadership Knowledge & Skills (SILKS) survey (mission, managing the instructional program, climate, or systems of practice) and district Valence Index of Performance (VIP) scores (academic, advanced academic, or teacher characteristics). In contrast, the linear combination of superintendent instructional leadership domains (mission, instructional management, and systems of practice) were found to be significantly related to district VIP scores (p<.05). More specifically, both instructional management (p<.05) and systems of practice (p<.01) instructional leadership domains were found to be significant contributors to the regression model. Furthermore, as systems of practice leadership behavior scores increased, district performance outcome values increased. More specifically, superintendent self-assessed leadership behaviors linked to increased district performance outcomes in the present study included: the articulation of high expectations for all students, staff, and administrators; a focus on continuous improvement; the alignment of district and campus goals; and the prioritized allocation of district resources.* *This dissertation is a compound document (contains both a paper copy and a CD as part of the dissertation).

▼ Teacher quality has been identified by multiple sources as the most influential factor in student achievement. While the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 mandated that all teachers be deemed “highly qualified” for their positions, it made no provision to require the evaluation of their performance once they began their work with students. This study focused on teacher quality among veteran teachers, with a minimum of five years of teaching experience, within the framework of an existing system of summative performance evaluation. The variable of teacher quality was defined by the performance dimensions measured in a specific teacher evaluation system, Performance Assessment System for Teachers (PAS-T), and was compared to the variable of student achievement, as measured by Measures of Academic Progress (MAP). This study required the use of multiple regression analysis and a standardized beta to illustrate how well student performance in mathematics and reading predicted teacher quality. The predictors used were student scores on MAP in both reading and mathematics, while the criterion variable was overall teacher quality as measured by a rating composite variable. This study was based on a sample of teachers with high teacher quality, as defined by the district’s evaluation system. The study results indicated that there is a statistically significant relationship between the two variables, though it is extremely low. When the regression analysis took both mathematics and reading into account, and while controlling for reading, mathematics is a strong predictor of teacher quality. The narrow definition of teacher quality in this study proved to be problematic in the establishment of sufficient range to get workable variance among scores. While this study did not provide the opportunity to demonstrate a correlation between teacher quality and student performance in mathematics and reading, the results did yield that student performance can be a predictor of teacher quality, particularly in mathematics. Much more research must be done to more clearly define the variable of teacher quality and its relationship to student achievement. The results of the study indicated that isolating the variable of teacher quality when analyzing student achievement is a complex undertaking. Other research has shown that there are many other factors that influence student performance, which are unrelated to teacher quality. These and other variables that impact student achievement were outside the scope of this study.
