ON BEING A CLIENT
Last month a social worker whom I had never met, and with whom I was having my first contact as a client (per telephone) said to me, as an opening statement, “Well, first of all I need to tell you that I think you are crazy!
Generative Roles: Assessing Sustained Involvement in Generativity
Abstract Generative roles refer to observable, behavioral community positions that embody aspects of teaching and nurturing that are central to the concept of generativity. Two studies are presented that describe generative roles in a community sample and provide psychometric data for a short index of generative roles. The first study also provides reliability and validity data from a second informant. The second study examines generative roles at different stages of adolescence and adulthood. Participants were asked 8 yes/no questions about a variety of community roles. The validity of the GRI was supported by significant correlations with the Loyola Generativity Scale, a widely used measure of generative concern (r=.33), and measures of related constructs. The correlations were similar across age categories. The Generative Roles Index has good psychometric qualities and complements existing measures of generativity by providing behavioral, observable data on roles
Assessing the Impact of Financial Aid Offers on Enrollment Decisions
Historically, colleges and universities have lacked models for systematically assessing the impact of their financial aid strategies on the enrollment decisions of admitted applicants. This study tests a model for assessing the impact of aid offers on enrollment decisions. The analysis demonstrates that: 1) financial aid strategies have a substantial influence on enrollment; and 2) the systematic analysis of student enrollment decisions can help institutional administrators refine their financing decisions
