El objetivo del estudio fue analizar la relación entre la actitud y resistencia al cambio organizacional en trabajadores mineros. Se utilizó una estrategia asociativa de tipo transversal de diseño de grupos naturales y la escala de actitudes hacia el cambio (EAC), la escala de la resistencia al cambio (ERC); y una encuesta para recabar datos sociodemográficos. Participaron 251 trabajadores. Los resultados indican una actitud favorable hacia el cambio organizacional, y un nivel medio/moderado de resistencia. Se presentan diferencias significativas en las puntuaciones de la ERC y la EAC en función de la faena laboral. La jerarquía laboral genera un efecto moderado en las diferencias de los factores asociados a la responsabilidad y la actitud de cinismo al cambio. Con relación a la edad, los trabajadores mayores de 51 años puntúan más bajo que los rangos menores en la dimensión actitud de temor hacia el cambio.
L’objectif de l’étude était d’analyser la relation entre l’attitude et la résistance au changement organisationnel chez les travailleurs miniers. Nous avons utilisé une stratégie associative de conception transversale des groupes naturels et l’échelle des attitudes envers le changement (EAC), l’échelle de la résistance au changement (ERC); et une enquête pour collecter des données sociodémographiques. 251 travailleurs ont participé. Les résultats indiquent une attitude favorable envers le changement organisationnel et un niveau de résistance moyen / modéré. Il existe des différences significatives dans les scores de l’EAC et de l’ERC en fonction de la journée de travail. La hiérarchie du travail génère un effet modéré dans les différences des facteurs associés à la responsabilité et l’attitude du cynisme à changer. En ce qui concerne l’âge, les travailleurs de plus de 51 ans obtiennent des scores inférieurs à ceux des groupes d’âge inférieurs dans l’attitude de peur face au changement.

Ph.D.
Flexion and extension arm actions have been studied with regard to whether and in what way(s) they are associated with attitudes. In this paper, I report the results of three experiments in which I investigated the valence of the attitude objects, the meaningfulness of the attitude objects, and the repetition of the arm action as factors that might influence the relation between flexion and extension arm actions and attitudes. In Experiment 1, I tested the influence of flexion and extension on attitude formation with novel, meaningless, but valenced, stimuli (Chinese characters). I predicted an Action x Stimulus Valence interaction such that both arm flexion and arm extension would result in higher pleasantness ratings of Chinese characters, when they were paired with positive and negative stimuli, respectively. Rather than the hypothesized interaction, I observed only a main effect for Stimulus Valence: positive characters were rated as more pleasant than were negative characters. In Experiment 2, I tested the influence of flexion and extension on attitude change with familiar, meaningful, valenced stimuli (foods). I predicted a main effect for Action, such that arm flexion would result in higher pleasantness ratings than would arm extension, regardless of Stimulus Valence, I also predicted a main effect of Stimulus Valence, such that positive foods would be rated as more pleasant than negative foods. Again, I observed only a main effect for Stimulus Valence in the predicted direction. In Experiment 3, I examined the influence of arm actions on attitudes over time using novel, meaningful, valenced stimuli (faces). I predicted that attitudes, as measured by an IAT, would be less biased for participants who repeatedly practiced responding to negative stimuli with a flexing action, compared to those of participants who repeatedly practiced responding to negative stimuli with an extending action. This prediction was weakly supported.

understanding of phases and phase changes concepts. In addition, the effects of these instructional methods on students&rsquo
attitudes toward chemistry as a school subject were compared. In this study 56 ninth grade students from two classes of a chemistry course instructed by the same teacher from Ankara Atatü
rk Anatolian Lycee in 2003-2004 educational year&rsquo
s first semester took part. The classes were randomly assigned as control and experimental groups. The experimental group was instructed by conceptual change oriented method with conceptual change texts supported by demonstration, whereas the control group was instructed by traditionally designed method over a period of three weeks. Both groups were administered to Phases and Phase Changes Achievement Test as pretest and posttest in order to assess students&rsquo
understanding of phases and phase changes concepts. Additionally, Science Process Skills Test was given before the treatment to measure students&rsquo
science process skills and Attitude Scale toward Chemistry as a School Subject was given after the treatment to determine their attitudes. The hypotheses were tested using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), paired samples t-test, and analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results of this study indicated that conceptual change oriented instruction caused a significantly better understanding of phases and phase changes concepts
that males had fewer alternative conceptions than females on phases and phase changes
and that science process skills were strong predictors of understanding in phases and phase changes concepts. On the other hand, no significant difference between conceptual change oriented instruction and traditionally designed chemistry instruction
and no effect of gender difference on students&rsquo
attitudes toward chemistry as a school subject were found.

problem solving abilities in mathematics (Koç
, ISiksal &
Bulut
2007). In this study, the aim is to investigate the change in sixth grade students&rsquo
problem solving abilities, attitude towards problem solving and attitude toward mathematics after mathematics instruction based on Polya&rsquo
s problem solving steps. The sample of this study consisted of 53 sixth grade students from an elementary school in Istanbul. The participants consist of a class selected conveniently among all the sixth grade classes in the school. In these selected classes, mathematical problems are solved according to the Polya&rsquo
s problem solving steps by following different problem solution techniques during the semester.At the end of this study, the three main results were found: 1) Instruction based on Polya&rsquo
s step has significantly affected students&rsquo
problem solving abilities in a positive way, 2) students&rsquo
attitudes towards problem solving has changed in a positive way, 3) students&rsquo
attitudes towards mathematics is enhanced by the instruction based on Polya&rsquo
s problem solving steps.

Child obesity is generally accepted to be one of the most negative trends in the world that we live in. Since marketing for food products has been recognized to be pushing this trend forward, it is hereby presented some alternatives that prove that marketing may be a solution instead of a problem. For this purpose, an analysis on the intrinsic qualities and consumer perceptions of Compal and Um Bongo juices was produced. An experiment was made with 58 children from 4 to 10 years old, in order to evaluate the possibility of attitude change, based on Petty and Cacioppo’s Elaboration Likelihood Model of Persuasion (ELM). In these tests the subjects were initially submitted to a blind profile of the juices, delivering only the emotional attributes currently being communicated by Compal. Then, children’s perceptions regarding the product were analyzed through their drawings. Thereafter, they were exposed to an intervention phase which consisted of rationally communicating the nutritious benefits of the product and other nutrition-related concepts, and we finally evaluated their perceptions post-test using drawing techniques. There is evidence that children in this age range will change their perceptions regarding the product when a rational communication is applied.
