Positive School Leadership

Positive School Leadership

Joseph F. Murphy; Karen Seashore Louis

Teachers' College Press
2018
nidottu
This landmark book translates positive and asset-based understandings of organizations to develop a powerful model of school leadership that is grounded in both existing research and the complexities of life in schools. The authors—both senior scholars in educational leadership—apply insights from positive psychology to the role and function of educational leaders. The Positive School Leadership (PSL) model draws on the strengths of relationships among staff and the broader school community to communicate and instill shared values and a common mission. This book builds a compelling case for creating a more inclusive, less “mechanistic” approach to leadership. Designed to engage both the hearts and minds of readers, the text is organized around reflective questioning of educational practice and current assumptions about the purposes and goals of leadership in schools.

Statistics for Real Estate Professionals

Statistics for Real Estate Professionals

Rebecca F. Guy; Louis Pol

Praeger Publishers Inc
1989
sidottu
Besides being a presentation of general statistics, this book's purpose is to show, in a general fashion, how quantified real estate information can assist in the evaluation of both the internal and market forces affecting the value of real estate. The book concludes with a brief summary of techniques, along with suggestions on how individuals or agencies can best use them. An appendix lists available software together with hardware requirements. Business Information Alert Statistics are an undisputed tool in the field of real estate science. Those measuring neighborhood change, economic value, and market effects have long relied on statistics to predict fluctuations and variances in the value of real estate more accurately. The purpose of this book is not to cover similar ground, however, but to show in a more general fashion how quantified real estate information can assist in the evaluation of both the internal and market forces affecting the value of real estate. From a general presentation on the use of statistics designed to make the reader comfortable with language and procedures, the book goes on to cover such topics as descriptive statistics, index construction, probability, normal distribution, sampling, and inferential statistics, as well as correlation and regression techniques, allowing for more complex statistical analyses. The book concludes with a brief summary of techniques covered, along with suggestions on how individual real estate agents or agencies can proceed with the most basic, yet useful analyses. An appendix documents the types of software available for analyses to be performed on personal computers together with their hardware requirements. Statistics for Real Estate Professionals will be of particular value to real estate agents and specialists who seek a practical understanding of how statistics can improve the analysis of real estate data.

Unequal Health

Unequal Health

Louis A. Penner; John F. Dovidio; Nao Hagiwara; Brian D. Smedley

Cambridge University Press
2023
sidottu
Racial disparities in health and life expectancy are public health problems that have existed since before the US became a country and affect all American's lives. On average, Black Americans have poorer overall health than White Americans and receive lower quality healthcare. This volume presents research from a broad range of academic disciplines, personal narratives, and historical sources to explain the origins of anti-Black racism and describe specific ways in which it threatens both Black Americans' health and the quality of their medical care. Using their own research and public policy expertise, the authors analyze the critical roles of individual and systemic racial bias in these racial health disparities and their consequence for all Americans. They also identify current viable interventions that can reduce current racial health disparities. Unequal Health is invaluable to professionals who study health disparities and lay people who are concerned about them.

Foreign Aid and Foreign Policy

Foreign Aid and Foreign Policy

Louis A. Picard; Robert Groelsema; Terry F. Buss

Routledge
2007
sidottu
This timely work presents cutting-edge analysis of the problems of U.S. foreign assistance programs - why these problems have not been solved in the past, and how they might be solved in the future. The book focuses primarily on U.S. foreign assistance and foreign policy as they apply to nation building, governance, and democratization. The expert contributors examine issues currently in play, and also trace the history and evolution of many of these problems over the years. They address policy concerns as well as management and organizational factors as they affect programs and policies. "Foreign Aid and Foreign Policy" includes several chapter-length case studies (on Iraq, Pakistan, Ghana, Haiti, and various countries in Eastern Europe and Africa), but the bulk of the book presents broad coverage of general topics such as foreign aid and security, NGOs and foreign aid, capacity building, and building democracy abroad. Each chapter offers recommendations on how to improve the U.S. system of aid in the context of foreign policy.

The Social Psychology of Prosocial Behavior

The Social Psychology of Prosocial Behavior

John F. Dovidio; Jane Allyn Piliavin; David A. Schroeder; Louis A. Penner

Psychology Press
2006
sidottu
Written by four leading researchers in the study of prosocial behavior, this book introduces a new perspective on prosocial behavior for the 21st century. Building on the bystander intervention work that has defined this area since the 1960s, The Social Psychology of Prosocial Behavior examines prosocial behavior from a multilevel perspective that explores the diverse influences that promote actions for the benefit of others and the myriad ways that prosocial actions can be manifested. The authors expand the breadth of the field, incorporating analyses of biological and genetic factors that predispose individuals to be concerned for the well being of others, as well as planned helping such as volunteering and organizational citizenship behavior and cooperative behavior within and between groups. They identify both the common and the unique processes that underlie the broad spectrum of prosocial behavior.Each chapter begins with a question about prosocial behavior and ends with a summary that answers the question. The final chapter summarizes the questions and the answers that research provides. Conceptual models that elaborate on and extend the multilevel approach to prosocial behavior are used to tie these findings together. The book concludes with suggestions for future research. The Social Psychology of Prosocial Behavior addressesthe following:*the evolution of altruistic tendencies and other biological explanations of why humans are predisposed to be prosocial;*how the situation and motives that are elicited by these situations affect when and how people help;*the causes and maintenance of long-term helping, such as volunteering;*how prosocial behavior changes over time and the developmental processes responsible for these changes;*the consequences of helping for both the people who provide it and those who receive it;*helping and cooperation within and between groups and the implications of these actions.This accessible text is ideal for advanced courses on helping and altruism or prosocial behavior, taught in psychology, sociology, management, political science, and communication, or for anyone interested in learning more about prosocial behavior in general.
