Hispanic-American Students' Attitudes toward Enrolling in High School Chemistry [electronic resource] : A Study of Planned Behavior and Belief-Based Change / Frank E. Crawley and Thomas R. Koballa, Jr.
The study sought to: (1) identify the determinants that motivate Hispanic-American students to enroll in high school chemistry; and (2) determine if providing belief-based information to students and their parents/guardians increases chemistry registration. The Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and E...

520 | |a The study sought to: (1) identify the determinants that motivate Hispanic-American students to enroll in high school chemistry; and (2) determine if providing belief-based information to students and their parents/guardians increases chemistry registration. The Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM) guided the study. Belief-based information about chemistry enrollment was collected from 69 students and was content analyzed. Once identified, the modal salient beliefs and referents guided development of the Chemistry Interest Questionnaire (CIQ), audiotaped messages, and accompanying information sheets. Messages were administered to one control and three experimental groups. One week later 598 students completed the CIQ. Shortly thereafter they registered for fall, 1990 courses. Findings support use of the TBP and ELM. Chemistry enrollment for students in the student only message group exceeded chance expectations. (24 references) (Author/KR) | ||
