Full textAbstract:
Purpose – Entrepreneurial learning through formal growth-oriented training programs for SME managers promises to enhance the growth competences and growth intentions of the enrolled managers. The impact of such programs, however, depends on who enrolls since initial competence and growth-intention levels vary significantly. Potential participants may suffer from limited ability to transform new knowledge into practice, absence of growth intention and too high or too low a prior competence level to be able to benefit substantially. Selection and self-selection processes therefore have a bearing on the extent to which such programs result in additionality, i.e. improved growth performance compared to non-intervention. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach – Selection and self-selection processes are explored through a study of a large-scale training program for growth-oriented managers of small Danish firms. This program has, from 2012 to 2015, trained about 700 SME managers. Data are currently available for 366 of these participants. This evidence is compared with survey results from a randomly selected control group of 292 growth-oriented SME managers in the same firm-size group. The data were analyzed through descriptive statistics and logistic regression analysis. Findings – A number of selection and self-selection biases were identified in the analysis. While some of the identified biases did not seem to conflict with the ambitions of this growth program, others potentially have consequences for the additionality of the program. Originality/value – The paper is the first systematic study of the importance of who enrolls in training programs for SME managers.

Full textAbstract:
Studies of student transition to post-secondary education have not examined the transition experiences of students who complete on-line courses as part of their high school curriculum. To address this area of deficit in on-line learning research, in this paper, the authors discuss a multi-year study that examined high school on-line learners’ plans to participate in post-secondary education, their enrollment in post-secondary education, and their persistence in a post-secondary program. Data for these analyses were collected from student surveys as well as high school and university academic records. The results suggest that participation in on-line courses in high school is not a significant factor in the post-secondary education transition process while student academic achievement is consistently influential.

Full textAbstract:
The present study tested two hypotheses derived from the theory of planned behavior regarding volunteer enrollment by college students in a campus-based program. Undergraduates (N = 647) enrolled in eight sections of Introduction to Psychology received a recruitment message for volunteering through a campus-based program. Following exposure to the recruitment message, students completed a questionnaire and two months later the enrollment records of the campus-based program were checked. Consistent with the theory of planned behavior, attitude, subjective norm and perceived behavioral control predicted intent – and intent, in turn, predicted volunteer enrollment in the campus-based program. However, less than 33% of the students with the maximum possible intention score of six subsequently enrolled to volunteer in the campus-based program.

Full textAbstract:
Objectives To explore the association between changes in personal circumstances and shifts in pregnancy intentions. Study design New start contraceptive clients, who desired to prevent pregnancy for at least one year enrolled in the survey arm of the HER Salt Lake Contraceptive Initiative (September 2015 –March 2017) and responded to the question “What are your future pregnancy plans?” at enrollment and 12-month follow-up. We estimated multivariable binary logistic fixed-effects regressions to examine the association between changes in personal circumstances and a change from never desiring a pregnancy at enrollment to considering one in the future at 12-month follow-up. Results The majority of the 2825 participants (2246, 79%) maintained their pregnancy timing intention over the 12-month study period. Multivariable analyses of the 208 participants who changed from never desiring a pregnancy to considering pregnancy in the future at 12-month follow-up indicated that entering cohabitation (aOR 3.14, 95% CI 1.30–7.58), increased household income (aOR 1.06, 95% CI 1.00–1.13), and changes from unemployment to full-time employment (aOR 5.94, 95% CI 1.29–27.36) are associated with increased the odds of desiring a future pregnancy after never wanting one a year prior. Conclusions Pregnancy intentions are dynamic over twelve months and covary with partner status, household income, and employment status. Pregnancy intentions are linked to changes in life circumstances. Health care providers need to frequently assess pregnancy intentions and resulting contraceptive or preconception needs.

Full textAbstract:
University officials at many institutions of higher learning have initiated enrollment control programs (ECPs) in over-subscribed majors. Although the qualifying academic barriers determining program admission associated with these ECPs establish hardships for some students, the gewal intention of such programs is to prepare students for a particular curriculum as well as to select individuals deemed most qualified when limited enrollment opportunities exist. At universities where collegiate admission is a selection process, these ECPs fit into the framework of normal operation. At institutions (such as Youngstown State University) where “open admission” to the university is the policy, however, the establishment of ECPs has caused inadvertent conflicts for academic advisors.

The interrelationships between motivation for choosing a program of study, intention to access academic advisors, academic difficulty, and actual appointments with academic advisors were based on student self-reports of motivation and intentions. In addition, academic achievement measures and data on student access to academic advisors were obtained. Motivation level at the beginning of enrollment and academic difficulty at the end of the semester were not significantly related to intended or actual appointments with academic advisors. However, subtle trends indicate that students with higher levels of motivation, including those in academic difficulty, saw academic advisors more than did their less motivated peers. Notions of expectancy value, self-worth, goal orientation, and self-concept were the theoretical frameworks used in the analysis. Relative Emphasis: research, theory, practice

Purpose Little empirical attention has been paid to the effects of electronic word-of-mouth (eWOM), electronic referral (eReferral), familiarity and cultural distance on behavioral outcomes, especially within the context of educational tourism. Based on the social network theory, this paper aims to explore the effects of eReferral, eWOM, familiarity and cultural distance on enrollment intention. Design/methodology/approach Survey data (n = 931) were obtained from educational tourists using a judgmental sampling technique. Linear modeling and artificial intelligence (i.e. artificial neural network [ANN]) techniques were used for training and testing the proposed associations. Findings The results suggest that eReferral, eWOM, familiarity and cultural distance predict intention to enroll both symmetrically (linear modeling) and asymmetrically (ANN). The asymmetric modeling possesses greater predictive validity and relevance. Originality/value This study contributes theoretically and methodologically to the management literature by validating the proposed relationships and deploying contemporary methods such as the ANN. Implications for practice and theory are discussed.

Full textAbstract:
Offshore programs have become increasingly popular in countries that are experiencing rapid economic growth and rising demand for higher education. There is no doubt that China is one of the largest markets for offshore programs. However, the offshore program market in China has become increasingly competitive. Currently, institutions from the USA, the UK, and Australia, to name just a few, are offering offshore programs ranging from the professional diploma level to higher degrees such as MA, MBA and PhD. Therefore, understanding how Chinese students select an offshore program is important for competing and surviving in this market place. This study examines the effects of image (i.e., country image and higher education image), attitude, subject norm and perceived behavior control (adopted from Ajzen's theory of planned behavior) in Chinese students' enrollment intentions towards offshore programs from Australia, the UK and the USA respectively. A total number of 1291 valid questionnaires were collected from China for this study. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method was used for data analyses and modeling. This PhD's several major findings have significant theoretical and practical implication. One of the major findings was that country image or its related higher education image doesn't have significant effect on an offshore program evaluation in China. This finding has contradicted most previous studies which suggested that country image had significant impact on whether a consumer purchases the products or brands from a foreign country. The difference between this study and the other country-image studies may be due to the fact that this study studied multiple factors besides country image, while the other studies looked at only the effect of country image on purchasing intention. Although country image or higher education image did not play any significant role in offshore program enrollments, this study found that the image of the partnering or local institution had a significant effect on enrollment intention. Because Chinese students are unfamiliar with a foreign country or their higher education system, they relied heavily on the local institution (e.g., its reputation and quality) to evaluate an offshore program. The findings with respective to image have challenged most previous studies on country image and open a new arena for looking at the effect of country image in behavioral intention. Practically speaking, these findings make universities rethink their offshore program strategies in foreign countries, particularly developing countries. Most university marketers from western countries emphasize on the characteristics of its own (such as the history of the university, the quality of research) when promoting its offshore program overseas. However, this study suggested that the focus should be placed on selecting a good and suitable local partner, as well as emphasizing the characteristics of the local partner. Other major findings were related to the Theory of Planned behavior. This study found that all three components of the TPB, namely, attitude towards the program, subject norm and perceived behavior control had significant effects on enrollment intention. This suggested that for predicting behavioral intention in educational program enrollment, the TPB is a very powerful model.

Aquesta recerca intenta trobar una definició d'abandonament (dropout) empírica i adaptada als estudiants de la UOC i, per extensió, potencialment adaptable a altres institucions d'aprenentatge a distància en línia.

The aim of this research is to establish an empirical definition of dropout that is tailored to UOC students and can be adapted later on to other online distance learning institutions. To do so, we analyse the number of consecutive rest periods (N) needed for a student on a particular programme to be considered to have dropped out (with a probability of less than 5% return or maximum error). This N proves to be different for each programme, as does the overall dropout rate. All programmes show a high probability of students' leaving after a break, especially when this interruption in their studies takes place in the second or third semester (early dropout). The research then focuses on early dropout, defining two models for the total number of new bachelor's degree students taking a break in the second semester: the continuance intention model and the effective re-enrolment model (or extended rest period), both for the third semester.

Full textAbstract:
Current literature on the gender gap in higher education lacks in-depth exploration of how the gap between males and females in postsecondary enrollment and degree attainment differs among racial/ethnic groups and among students of differing socioeconomic status (SES). This thesis explores the potential mediating role of student attitudes and behaviors and whether or not inclusion in certain racial/ethnic or SES groups moderates the relationship between gender and intentions to continue one's education immediately after high school graduation. This study uses data from the High School Longitudinal Study of 2009. Results suggest that student attitudes mediate more of the relationship between student gender and postsecondary education intentions and that this mediation was strongest for Hispanic students. Additionally, results also suggest that the gender gap in postsecondary education intentions is smallest among Hispanics, indicating that Hispanic identity moderates the relationship between student gender and postsecondary education intentions. Results pertaining to the moderating role of SES were inconclusive.

This study was aimed to investigate whether the constituting elements of university image and considerations concerning school choice affect students’ enrollment intention and whether there is any halo effort. Questionnaire survey method was adopted. The questionnaire was designed on the basis of dimensions constructed by experts and items employed by previous researchers. The research subjects were third-grade vocational/high school students in Hsinchu and Miaoli areas. They were asked to provide their opinions as to the characteristics and overall image of some selected universities and their intention to be enrolled at these universities. Based on purposive sampling, two schools were selected from the first and the last groups of schools, and two classes were selected from each school. In these 8 classes of 4 schools, there were 379 students. From these students, 379 valid responses were obtained. Analysis methods, including descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, correlation analysis, and regression analysis, were applied. The conclusions were induced as follows: 1. Among the background variables of high school students, gender, school attribute, and school group have significant impact on the students’ perceptions of “enrollment intention”, “overall image”, and “school characteristics”. No significant impact of residing city, parents’ education background, and parents’ occupation was observed. 2. The constituting elements of university image and considerations concerning school choice are significantly and positively correlated with the students’ enrollment intention. In the regression analysis, the coefficient of determination and regression coefficient have reached the level of significance, supporting the findings of the existing studies. 3. In the hierarchical regression analysis, when both “constituting elements of university image and considerations concerning school choice” and “overall image” were considered, the former became insignificant and its explanatory power was covered by that of “overall image”. Therefore, the former seemed to be affected by the halo effects. The major implication of the research findings was that researchers and university administrators should prioritize improvement of overall image of their schools and avoid focusing solely on school characteristics or a particular attribute; otherwise, their efforts in research design and improvement of school management would be futile.

Along with decreasing fertility rate and consequently descending enrollments to school, private schools in Taiwan are facing difficulties in recruiting new students. Reliable information on prospects’ decision-making criteria is a must for effective recruiting, to which this study bears as aim. This research enquires around 1,000 students that are in their 10th grade in different private vocational schools with a questionnaire mainly on source of information and motives for school selection. Data gathered is then analyzed to produce further interpretation and suggestions for recruiting strategy. Research findings confirm that the academic performance attributes contribute more in securing students’ intention to a prospective school than marketing campaigns could do. Since gender may cause difference in school selection, it is essential to involve this criterion and others while segmenting the enrollment market. Prospective students with lower learning achievement may need special marketing campaign. Internal marketing to current student to generate their school identity would be a highly cost-effective campaign as part of recruiting program, since current student would act as important reference to prospects. Conclusions and implications are drawn on the result findings are provided to end this research report.

Under the National Health Insurance (NHI) system, the enrollment application and reporting work has always required tremendous support from insured units. Network application and reporting system will save efforts in handling the complicated procedures and service cost, papers, environmental protection,energy conservation. therefore, In this research try to establish an integrated theoretical model on the “Intention Behavior for Network Application and Reporting” to identify the key factors influencing such behaviors, as well as methods to expedite the utilization of the Network application and reporting system. We hope this will become a useful reference for the relevant government agencies for their administration and policy-making. To conduct the research that we consolidated the relevant behavioral theory literature and used a open questionnaire for survey purpose.The questionnaire was structured by integrating the TAM and TPB theoretical models, containing variables such as attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavior control and intention behavior model. LISREL 8.71 and SPSS 12.0 software were used for statistical analysis. It was found through research that the attitude and perceived behavior control are all having salient positive influence subject norm (SN) is not salience but is positive. It was suppose to expedite the utilization of the Network application and reporting system, we need to first start with variables such as perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, compatibility, trust, self efficacy (SE) etc. intentions and behaviors influencing factors. Efforts should be made to assist potential users to acquire the electronic certificates and accreditation by seminars, business handbooks and media communications through a user-oriented approach

Entering the 1960s, the University of Illinois typified “Middle America,” with its midwestern campus, middle-class enrollment, and midcentury quiescence—the unlikeliest of settings for protest, rebellion, and riots in the streets. But all of that came to pass. Born of free-speech issues in the Red Scare era and nourished by anger with an unpopular war, protests grew into a general antiestablishment frustration, climaxing in a student strike and days-long violent disturbances that shut down one of the nation’s largest land-grant universities. How could this happen, here? The story is one of self-important legislators, well-intentioned administrators, a conservative citizenry, and “outside agitators,” but mostly of a minority of confident, determined, somewhat naïve students. Virtually all white, relatively privileged, raised in a postwar economic boom, believers in and embodiment of American exceptionalism, they would confront moral questions around race, justice, war, life, and death that became existential as the body count rose in Vietnam. This is the story of how those Illini students responded. No one could have predicted rebellion would happen here. But it did. These young people helped bring down one president, shamed a second, and helped lead the nation to end a wretched war. By their agency they changed history. And if such a movement could happen in such an unlikely place, who is to say that another, equally unlikely, might not happen again?

This chapter aims to analyze the impact of a university's website quality to the intentions of prospective students to enroll at the university. The proposed model was tested by distributing questionnaires to third-year senior high school students around Jakarta. Respondents were asked to follow a series of instructions to access the websites of two universities, the University of Muhammadiyah Malang and the Indonesian Islamic University. After completing the task, respondents were asked to complete a questionnaire to evaluate website quality. Based on the analysis of 117 valid questionnaires, it is concluded that website quality influences the perception by prospective university students of quality university education, which subsequently affects the intention of prospective students to enroll at the university. The finding confirms that the quality of official websites can be used as an extrinsic attribute to signal the quality of education at the university; thus, its optimal maintenance must be endeavoured.

This ethnographic case study discusses the experiences of nine competitive male hip hop dancers as they participated in an all-male jazz technique class, which was taught by the researcher, in a private Canadian dance studio. Questionnaires were distributed to the male students and their three dance teachers to identify both the students’ and teachers’ perceptions of gender in competitive dance education. This chapter critically examines pedagogical practices that masculinize dance movement and teaching strategies in a private dance school with the intention of encouraging male enrollment. It challenges dance educators to assess how their own gendered assumptions influence their pedagogies, and to consider the potential effects they may have on their students’ experiences.

This case chronicles the beginnings of an enrollment management transformation currently underway at The Extended Campuses of Northern Arizona University. After flat enrollments for three plus years, the organization executed a phased plan to alter the university’s enrollment trajectory. A complete reorganization, an intentional effort to operationalize enrollment marketing best practice, and the establishment of a data-driven organization comprise the foundations of the first phase of the plan. While specific to Northern Arizona University, the case will also highlight six foundations for initiating any enrollment management transformational journey.

Health care organizations are struggling to find new ways to cut healthcare utilization and costs while improving quality and outcomes. Predictive models that have been developed to predict global utilization for a healthcare organization cannot be used to predict the behavior of individuals. On the other hand, massive amounts of healthcare data are available in databases that can be used for exploring patterns and therefore knowledge discovery. Diversity and complexity of the healthcare data requires attention to the use of statistical methods. By nature, healthcare data are multivariate, making the analysis difficult as well as interesting. In this chapter, our intention is to classify individuals that are future high-utilizers of healthcare. In particular, we answer the question of whether a mathematical model can be generated utilizing a large claims database that will predict which individuals who are not using a service in a yet untested database will be high utilizers of that health service in the future. For this purpose, an integrated dataset from enrollment, medical claims, and pharmacy databases containing more than 150 million medical and pharmacy claim line items and for over four million patients is analyzed for knowledge discovery. A modern data-mining tool, namely decision trees, which may have a broad range of applications in healthcare organizations, was used in our analyses and a discussion of this valuable tool is provided.

Full textAbstract:
Health care organizations are struggling to find new ways to cut healthcare utilization and costs while improving quality and outcomes. Predictive models that have been developed to predict global utilization for a healthcare organization cannot be used to predict the behavior of individuals. On the other hand, massive amounts of healthcare data are available in databases that can be used for exploring patterns and therefore knowledge discovery. Diversity and complexity of the healthcare data requires attention to the use of statistical methods. By nature, healthcare data are multivariate, making the analysis difficult as well as interesting. In this chapter, our intention is to classify individuals that are future high-utilizers of healthcare. In particular, we answer the question of whether a mathematical model can be generated utilizing a large claims database that will predict which individuals who are not using a service in a yet untested database will be high utilizers of that health service in the future. For this purpose, an integrated dataset from enrollment, medical claims, and pharmacy databases containing more than 150 million medical and pharmacy claim line items and for over four million patients is analyzed for knowledge discovery.

Full textAbstract:
The effectiveness of low dose heparin in the prevention of myocardial reinfarction was investigated in a multi centric randomized controlled study. After having given their, informed consent to undergo daily subcutaneous heparin adninistratian, 728 patients of both sex aged 50-75 years, who had suffered frcm a transmural myocardial infarction 6-18 months before the enrollment and were in the I or II NYHA class were randomized. 365 patients (control group) were an the therapy usually performed by the 21 experimental canters participating in the study and 363 (heparin group) were treated with subcutaneous calcium heparin (Calciparina®) 12,500 IU daily in addition to the usual therapy of the centers. Curing enrollment the balancement of the two grcups was periodically checked for age, sex, serum cholesterol, cigarette smoking, blood pressure, site of infarction, arrhythmias and drug regimen. The prospect!vely established end-points were: transmural reinfarctioi as primary end-point; general mortality and mortality for cardiovascular events as accessory end-points over a mean follow-up period of 24 nxnths. Statistical analysis was foreseen both on drug efficacy (EE) and intention to treat (IT) basis. Patients of both groups underwent periodical examinations during the study. Acherence to the therapy and bone mineral content (bone density by double isotope technique) were also checked. At the end of the study the balancement for the factors considered was satisfactory and the drop-outs were 7.7% in heparin group and 6.3% in control group (ns). In heparin group the re infarction rate was lcwer by 62.92% than in control group. At life table analysis the difference was statistically significant (p<0.05 DE and p=0.05 IT). Mortality rate was reduced by 47.61% (DE) in heparin group (p<0.05 at life table analysis). Cardiovascular mortality was not significantly reduced (−33.06%), but the mortality attributable to thromboembolism was reduced in heparin group (p<0.05). Sixty patients (16.5%) discontinued heparin treatment, but only in 23 patients (6.3%) suspension was due to side effects.

Full textAbstract:
Transforming the academic experience and success of students by building Active Learning Classrooms (ALCs) is increasing, but ALCs are still fewer than traditional classroom spaces. These new learning spaces create an inherent tension between increasing student enrollments and active learning environments. Accommodating increased class sizes does not have to exclude fostering an active learning space. We have an opportunity every time a classroom is renovated or a new building is built to intentionally acknowledge and engage this tension to positively influence student learning and success. As we renovate and construct new learning spaces on our campuses, it is not only important to understand how the “built pedagogy” (Monahan 2000, 2002) and “architecture as pedagogy” (Orr 1993, 1997) of our spaces can help or hinder more active learning pedagogies, but also how to support effective teaching in these spaces (Levesque-Bristol, 2019). While many institutions are prioritizing active learning as old classrooms get renovated, few are doing so at the broad campus-wide scope necessary to affect larger-scale culture change (Park & Choi, 2014). Two such institutions that are developing and supporting large-scale active learning spaces are the Technological University Dublin (TU Dublin) and Purdue University (Indiana, USA). TU Dublin and Purdue are conducting collaborative research focusing on how each institution’s new, large-scale construction of formal and informal learning spaces is impacting teaching and learning.
