Self Discovery

Models of college student development have demonstrated an insensitivity to the differences that exist among various students, although such differences are very important in a world where student bodies in higher education are increasingly diverse. The authors present a model based on The Dakota Inventory of Student Orientations, which may be useful for program developmen that fosters reflection, self discovery, perspective-taking, and collaboration among students with varying orientations towards learning.

Multiple Regression Technique

The factor analytic model of the practitioner-oriented Opinions About People (OAP) was tested with a population of gerontological practitioners (N = 558). A confirmatory factor analysis was performed to ascertain the degree-of-fit between these data and the published OAP factor model. After results supported the hypothesis that the two samples differed, a second factor analysis was designed to yield estimates of communalities by a least squares multiple regression technique. This analysis eliminated nine items not warranting inclusion in the instrument, redistributed the factors, and brought out a completely new factor. Finally, to test the hypothesis that attitudes toward aging and the aged are uncorrected, a third analysis was performed in which the six scales of the oblique solution were refactored. The resulting higher order dimensions tended to support this hypothesis.

Continuous Responses

This study develops a general linear model intended for personality and attitude items with (approximately) continuous responses that is based on a double source of measurement error: items and persons. Two restricted sub-models are then obtained from the general model by placing restrictions on the item and person parameters. And it follows that the standard unidimensional factor-analytic model is one of these sub-models. Procedures for (a) calibrating the items, (b) obtaining individual estimates of location and fluctuation, (c) assessing model-data fit, and (d) assessing measurement precision are discussed for all the models considered, and illustrated with two empirical examples in the personality domain.

Confirmatory Factor

Rosenberg's Self-esteem Scale is a widely used measure of global self-esteem; however, the unidimensional nature of the scale has been questioned. A unidimensional confirmatory factor analytic model was tested and found consistent to the data.
