Abstract. Faking has been a concern in selection research for many years. Many studies have examined faking in questionnaires while far less is known about faking in selection exercises with higher fidelity. This study applies the theory of planned behavior (TPB; Ajzen, 1991 ) to low- (interviews) and high-fidelity (role play, group discussion) exercises, testing whether the TPB predicts reported faking behavior. Data from a mock selection procedure suggests that candidates do report to fake in low- and high-fidelity exercises. Additionally, the TPB showed good predictive validity for faking in a low-fidelity exercise, yet not for faking in high-fidelity exercises.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pentingnya manajemen paradigma dan perilaku sebagai upaya gerakan menuju kemajuan pelaksanaan program green campus. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian deskriptif kualitatif dengan menggunakan data primer dan sekunder. Subyek dalam penelitian ini yaitu tim pelaksana pemeringkatan UI Green Metric World University Ranking Universitas Sebelas Maret (UNS) Tahun 2020. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan metode wawancara, Focus Group Discussion (FGD), observasi dan studi dokumentasi. Hasil dari penelitian ini mencakup: (1) paradigma biosentris dan deep ecology menjadi paradigma yang diperlukan guna mendorong kemajuan program green campus, (2) melalui model theory of planned behavior, manajemen perilaku menjadi penting dalam kemajuan program green campus, (3) kesuksesan program green campus terletak pada penyusunan strategi yang dikaitkan dan dikaji dengan paradigma lingkungan, faktor perilaku masyarakat, serta kemampuan sumber daya yang ada di Perguruan Tinggi.

Diabetes Melitus (DM) merupakan penyakit yang sering menimbulkan komplikasi sehingga memerlukan perawatan dan pengobatan jangka panjang. Hasil studi pendahuluan didapatkan dari 10 responden sebanyak 50% klien sulit mematuhi diet, 60% merasa jenuh dan bosan terhadap pengobatan DM, 10% klien yang menjalani olahraga secara teratur, serta 50% klien mengatakan takut akan komplikasi DM. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah mengembangkan model peningkatan kepatuhan berbasis Theory of Planned Behavior klien DM tipe 2 di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Gundih Surabaya. Desain penelitian studi ini adalah explanative observasional dengan pendekatan cross sectional. Populasi dalam penelitan ini adalah klien DM tipe- 2 yang tinggal di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Gundih Surabaya dengan jumlah sampel 100 responden. Teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan quota sampling. Variabel dalam penelitian ini adalah usia, jenis kelamin, pendidikan, pengetahuan, sikap, norma subjektif, persepsi terhadap pengendalian, niat, kepatuhan tatalaksana DM dan kadar gula darah. Instrumen yang digunakan adalah kuesioner. Hasil penelitian dianalisis menggunakan PLS (Partial Least Square) kemudian didapatkan isu strategis dan dilakukan Focus Group Discussion (FGD). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa faktor latar belakang mempunyai pengaruh terhadap sikap, norma subjektif dan percieved behavior control dengan nilai t-statistik sebesar 11,356, sikap, norma subjektif dan percieved behavior control mempunyai pengaruh terhadap intensi dengan nilai t-statistik 13,935, intensi mempunyai pengaruh terhadap kepatuhan dengan nilai t-statistik 7,80 dan kepatuhan mempunyai pengaruh terhadap kadar gula darah dengan nilai t-statistik 4,592. Model pengembangan kepatuhan tatalaksana pasien DM mempertimbangkan faktor intensi, sikap, norma subjektif dan percieved behavioral. Penelitian lanjutan dapat dilakukan pengujian booklet “Modul Patuh Perawatan Diabetes” untuk peningkatan kepatuhan pasien.

Communication is a basic need to our humanity as social beings. Our relationships are built and maintained through communication, our education and work is also depended on communication (Jagoe, n.d.). Most importantly, hearing connects us to people and enable us to communicate in a way that none of our other senses can achieve. Different formative evaluation tools and techniques can help to fulfil the special needs of the hearing impaired students. . Role play, Group discussion, oral presentation, survey and discussion and poster making and presentation are few of the useful techniques which can be used for formative evaluation of the hearing-impaired students. Role play gives a good plat form to these students to build the skill of communication which also develops their confidence. Bolton in his research paper found that rubrics helped students to understand the detailed points regarding the assignment. Thus, rubric will also be helpful for them to evaluate their own performance and provided immediate feedback on their strengths and weakness (Bolton, 2006). Thus, the teacher can work on the special needs of the hearing impaired students by implementing formative evaluation techniques along with its rubric.

The job of an air traffic controller (ATCO) is very specific and demanding. The assessment of potential suitable candidates requires a customized and efficient selection procedure. The German Aerospace Center DLR conducts a highly selective, multiple-stage selection procedure for ab initio ATCO applicants for the German Air Navigation Service Provider DFS. Successful applicants start their training with a training phase at the DFS Academy and then continue with a unit training phase in live traffic. ATCO validity studies are scarcely reported in the international scientific literature and have mainly been conducted in a military context with only small and male samples. This validation study encompasses the data from 430 DFS ATCO trainees, starting with candidate selection and extending to the completion of their training. Validity analyses involved the prediction of training success and several training performance criteria derived from initial training. The final training success rate of about 79% was highly satisfactory and higher than that of other countries. The findings demonstrated that all stages of the selection procedure showed predictive validity toward training performance. Among the best predictors were scores measuring attention and multitasking ability, and ratings on general motivation from the interview.

Abstract. Heart transplantation is the treatment of choice for children with end-stage heart disease. Coronary artery vasculopathy is, however, a significant morbidity and leading cause of late graft loss, and hyperlipidemia a risk factor for its development. Improving diet in this population could have important benefits for patients. We wanted to understand what influences decisions about food intake in this patient group. Dietary intentions and behavior were examined using a questionnaire based on the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) with 67 children who had undergone heart transplantation at least 12 months previously. The TPB model was significant for both healthy and unhealthy dietary behaviors, explaining 55% and 38% of the variance, respectively. Ten percent of children reported not eating any fruit and/or vegetables in the previous week and only 29% reported eating fruit and/or vegetables every day. The Theory of Planned Behavior provides a framework for explaining some specific dietary behaviors related to individual food groups in children who have undergone heart transplantation. These preliminary data support using this approach to inform the development of interventions to improve fruit and vegetable consumption but the approach may be less useful for explaining and developing interventions to reduce the consumption of unhealthy foods.
