Description

Provides an extensive compilation of scales for use in studying students in service learning classes. The scales measure a variety of constructs, such as attitudes, moral development, and critical thinking. In addition, the text includes a primer on measurement theory. The authors advocate the use of multiple-item scales, present the rationale for their use, and explain how readers can evaluate them for reliability and validity. This book is a valuable resource for program evaluators and researchers who want to inform the practice of service learning. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2005 APA, all rights reserved)
