内容介绍Abstract
This lecture introduces quantitative educational research approach. Based on personal experience and real examples, Dr. Jiangang Xia introduces his research philosophy that links educational leadership theory to school practice (empirical data) using appropriate quantitative methods. The focused research topic is principal-teacher’s decision-making power relationship–whether it is a win-win situation or a zero-sum game; the data source is the US national Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS); and the methods include the traditional multilevel modeling (MLM) and the emerging multilevel structural equation modeling (MSEM).
