Though respondents would be marked as anonymous, each respondent would be distinguished by the notation of several demographic basics beyond identification of the respondent's campus. In addition, notation would be made of the racial or ethnic traits of the subject according to the respondent's own report. Age of the respondent would also be considered here. Additionally, respondents would be asked to note the years of professional experience garnered at the campus in question and would be marked according to the discipline in which each provides instruction. No specific requirements will be used to select these demographics beyond their connection to the respective campuses, but notation of the above-noted demographic traits will help to refine the value of qualitative findings and make these findings subject to greater analytical flexibility.
The sampling frame would be constituted of first responding personnel...
Perhaps the most distinct advantage to conducting research with the Likert Scale survey acting as the prime tool for data gathering is its capacity to yield first-hand accounts which may be protected by anonymity and which enable researchers to formulate data analyses that are not influenced by their personal perceptions of subjects.
Information leading to the Likert Scale model of survey will be distributed through the email listserv at participating schools and will be hosted at the Survey Monkey website. The survey will request that respondent's rate on a scale of 1 to 5 to what extent they agree or disagree with statements provided in the survey. These statements will primarily concern issues relating to community, policy orientation and internal management as these relate to matters of diversity.
This would be considered a non-experimental quantitative
According to these authorities, "Workplace stressors often have detrimental effects on faculty job satisfaction and may lead to decisions to leave the institution or to leave higher education entirely. Although some degree of turnover is inevitable and perhaps desirable, high rates of faculty turnover can be costly to the reputation of an institution and to the quality of instruction" (p. 776). In many cases, the very faculty members that

According to research, 90% of faculty and 75% of students enrolled in doctoral religious studies programs in the United States and Canada are Caucasian (American Academy of Religion, 2003). Fluker argues (and rightfully so), "Without racial and ethnic diversity, schools fail to create a positive institutional climate in which students from all backgrounds can succeed. Without racial and ethnic diversity, students fail to meet and learn from
In this way, management should make an effort not only to understand the market within which they operate, but also the representation of this market in their employee base. Through making a conscious attempt to look beyond immediate personality preference, the manager can benefit the small or medium business by cultivating not only his own, but the rest of the employees' intercultural undersatnding and empathy. To do this, it is
Diversity in the Elderly Population Elderly There is an abundance of diversity of the newest elderly generation. There is a lack of diversity in the health care coverage for the elderly. This would not exist in the future of health care. It is simply not practical nor ethical to ignore this issue of geriatrics as part of the visualization of the future of health care. Subtracting ethics for those who do not
Certain people are difficult to work with because they are unhappy in their lives or because they lack the necessary social skills and perceptions required to work with others. In many cases, difficult individuals can undermine morale and productivity of the working group if other members of the group react defensively or forget that it is not necessary to respond to every issue that is not directly related to
Science may not be able to absolutely determine laws of human social development for all groups. In fact, a large majority of studies focus on a white, middle class population sample and therefore cannot be generalized to the entire population. Science is in itself a social construction, reflecting the biases, values, and beliefs of its practitioners. Because of its role in our society, science also perpetuates existing social hierarchies
