What makes them take a stand on a specific issue? Solving school problems and making policy decisions require that we anticipate how people will feel about an issue or how they will behave.

School leaders must understand the values, attitudes, and beliefs brought to different situations.

The School Leader′s Guide to Understanding Attitude and Influencing Behavior makes it possible for educators to scientifically understand and influence the attitudes and behaviors of diverse constituencies, both inside and outside the school.

Using the Model of Reasoned Action (MORA) enables readers to understand how people form attitudes and make decisions about a wide variety of future behaviors.

Armed with this information, educators can change attitudes and influence behavior of teachers, staff, parents, and the community.

This excellent resource includes: Examples of attitude scales A sample questionnaire A checklist of steps through an attitude-behavior study Tables to organize and report data Data analysis presented in an easily-applied manner When you must know how best to influence the attitudes or behaviors of others, this remarkable book will show you.

Make a positive difference in your school or district!
