| Summary: | This study employed an experimental approach to determine significant changes, if any, in the attitude and knowledge of a group of industrial supervisor, belonging to an appliance manufacturing firm, receiving training on behavior modification. The participants of the study included five supervisors in the experimental group who were matched with an equal number of supervisors in the control group. All participants were administered the supervisory index and a questionnaire on behavior modification (except the control group, for this questionnaire, who declined to answer it since they felt they had no background idea at all about the terms in the questionnaire). The results show no significant changes in supervisory attitudes and knowledge on behavior modification before and after training. The findings could have been influenced by the small sample size, the failure of training to change basic attitudes, the interaction of testing and treatment, and possible effects of motivation and absences on attitude change and the learning process. |
