w’ A 5 U ABSTRACT .AVAILABILITY AND DISSEMINATION OF RESEARCH IN SCHOOL BUSINESS AFFAIRS by Austin Francis Bates The Problem The purposes of this study were to determine the extent to which doctoral research in school business affairs is read by school business personnel and to develop techniques for the greater utilization of research. As a part of the study a compilation was prepared of studies completed in American colleges and universities during the l950-60 period. Method and Procedures The search for doctoral research in school business affairs pro= duced a list of 72] doctoral studies. These were classified into twelve groups and from each was drawn a ten percent sample for inclusion in a questionnaire and the respondents were asked to indicate whether they had read the dissertation, the abstract, or an article about.it; if not, they were asked whether they desired the findings to be made available. The respondents were also asked to rate certain techniques for increasing the utilization of research and finally to indicate their reading pattern in respect to certain school business publica- tions. The questionnalre was mailed to 2165 members on the 1960 roster of the Association of School Business Officials of the United States and Canada. The 576 anonymous replies were tabulated to permit a Austin Francis Bates determination of the extent of research reading and desired availability .of research. Findings relative to the techniques were tabulated accord- ing to the geographical areas. The summary of reading patterns was made according to geographical areas and educational levels. Findings and Recommendations On an average. the dissertations included in the questionnaire ‘were read byless than three-fogrths of one percent of the respondents; abstracts by approximately one percent, and articles pertaining to the studies by less than three percen . Approximately twenty-five percent desired that study findings be made available. Most extensive reading was reported in the following areas: Insurance, Bpgrd Policies and Administrative Procpgupeg as Related to Fiscal and Noninstructignal ‘ Matters, Personnel.Nanagement, and Purchasing 2nd Supply Hanagemen . Two of the school business publications listed were reported as being read regularly by over seventy pepcent of the respondents; the one ‘with least reader attention by thirty-three percent of the group. Based on the study findings the following recommendations were made: I. The development of a closer affiliation between the A.S.B.O. and the universities and colleges to the end there may be a coordination of research programs in school business affairs. 2. The establishment of university contacts committees within state associations of school business officials to parallel the work of the A.S.B.0. University Contacts Committee. 3. The development of direct channels of communication between microfilming agencies and the A.S.B.0. office to Insure that ab- stracts of completed studies will be made available. A. The publication of abstracts of doctoral studies in school business affairs on a specially marked page in School Business Affairs, the monthly publication of A.S.B.0. Austin Francis Bates 5. The periodic summarization and distribution by A.S.B.0. of doctoral research findings in respect to specific research topics in school business affairs. 6.

This concern arises from the belief, often expressed by educational leaders, that many doctoral studies are completed and filed away unnoticed. In spite of efforts made to publicize completed studies the feeling still remains that only limited use is made of dissertations or abstracts. The Association of School Business Officials of the United States and Canada has been particularly concerned about the limited use made of research, giving support to the belief that only limited perusal is made of dissertations once they are catalogued in the uni- versity or college library. In addition to the claim that limited use is made of completed studies, some Association members feel that doctoral research has been, and continues to be, limited in scope and that voids.in research exist in many areas of school business manage- ment. The expressed desire on the part of educational leaders--partic- ularly those in A.S.B.0.--that steps be taken to determine the extent to which the above problems exist and to provide techniques or channels of communication for the greater dissemination of research findings was the genesis of this study. Statement of the Problem The Study Plan The study plan consisted of the following parts: First: The preparation of a bibliography of doctoral studies in school business affairs completed in American universities and colleges during the years 1950 to 1960, both inclusive, catagorized according to the areas of school business responsibility.I Second: The determination of the extent to which research find- ings are read by A.S.B.O. members and the extent of desire on the part of members to have findings made available to them. Third: The identification of certain techniques to provide for greater dissemination of research findings. Fourth: The determination of the reading patterns of A.S.B.O. members in respect to publications carrying school business articles. Opestions to Which Answers were Sought The specific questions to which answers were sought in the study are as follows: 1. To what extent has research in school business management been performed during the past eleven year period: 1950-1960, in- clusive? 2. To what extent are doctoral dissertations dealing with school business affairs.read by A.S.B.O. members? 3. To what extent are abstracts of doctoral dissertations deal- ing with school business affairs read by A.S.B.0. members? A. To what extent are published articles on doctoral study find- ings dealing with school business affairs read by A.S.B.O. members? lFrederick v. Hill, The School Business Administrator, A Special Committee Report Sponsored by the Association of School Business Officials Board of Directors, Prepared by the Special Committee of the Association of School Business Officials of the United States and Canada (Evanston, Illinois: Association of School Business Officials of the United States and Canada, 196OL.pp. 18-21. 5. To what extent do A.S.B.O. members desire to have.research findings,made.available? 6. What differences exist between school business responsibility areas in regard to the extent to which dissertations, abstracts of dissertations, or articles pertaining to dissertations are read by A.S.B.0. members? 7. What differences exist between the school business responsi- bility areas in regard to the extent to which A.S.B.O. members desire to have study findings made available? 8. What techniques might be effectively employed to provide greater dissemination of research findings? 9. What are the frequency reading patterns of A.S.B.O. members. in respect to certain publications which commonly carry information pertaining to school business affairs? The,Methodology Prepgringfthe Basic Bibliography The first step in the study involved a search to locate doctoral research projects in school business management completed in American colleges and universities during the years 1950 to 1960, both inclusive, The following reference sources were consulted and produced a total of 721 studies: 1 Doctoral Dissertations Accepted by American Universities. Vols. 18-22. New York: H.W. Wilson Co., 1950-1955. _Micrpfi1m Abstracts. Vols. 10-11. Ann Arbor, Michigan: University Microfilms Inc., 1950-1951. _Dissertation Abstracts. Vols. 12-21.

Encyclopedia of Educational Research. New York: Macmillan Co., 1960. iReview of Educational Research. Vols. 20-30. Washington, D.C.: American Educational Research Association, 1950-1960. In addition to the above cited references, a review was made of the brochures or listings of the various universities and colleges relative to completed doctoral studies. The above listed reference sources were selected, after consulta= tion with library personnel, as those which would provide the most comprehensive coverage of completed doctoral studies. The fact that the studies were included in several of the listings reviewed reduced the danger of oversight. The search conducted provided a total listing of 721 studies which was termed the pggig bibliography and constituted the list from which the sample was drawn for the questionnaire, the prepara- tion of which is described on page 9. Subsequent to the preparation of the questionnaire a few addi- tional studies were identified through scattered sources. These were combined with the basic list to form the $1221 bibliography which, in the Opinion of the writer, represents a comprehensive compilation of doctoral studies in school business management completed since 1950 and reported in the references cited on page 3 of this study prior to January I, I96l. The Study Classification Plan Having completed the basic list of studies the next step involved the selection of a classification plan. This grouping was necessary in order that samples from each of the groups could be drawn for inclusion in the questionnaire and to properly organize the bibliography for easy reader reference in the final form. Bulletin 21 published by the Association provided the answer to the classification problem.1 This 'ibid. publication developed by an A.S.B.0. committee under the leadership of Dr. Frederick W. Hill established nineteen areas in which the school business manager must assume responsibility. Sixteen of these defined areas were selected as the basis for a classification of the studies with one additional area designated as Educational Finance. In order to relate specifically to Bulletin 2i the areas into which the studies were grouped were assigned the same numbers as in the Bulletin with the added area, Educational Finance, designated as number twenty. .Assignment of Studies to classification Grapps The assignment of the studies to the respective classification groups was based on consideration of the title, and/or abstract or, in some cases, the dissertation itself. This Operation was greatly facili- I tated by the many studies that have been microfilmed and the abstracts ' A classification that are available through Dissertation Abstracts. based upon an examination of the title alone is sometimes difficult and in some cases impossible. In fact, some studies.may well have been over- looked simply because the title was misleading or did not give suffi- cient clue to prompt identification. In some instances studies related to more than one group and, in such cases, assignment was made to the group which, in the opinion of the writer, the study.was most pertinent. After the studies were grouped,punch cards were prepared to include the following information: dissertation title, degree granting institution, IA compilation of abstracts of microfilmed dissertations published monthly by University Microfilms, Inc., Ann Arbor, Michigan. degree, year degree was granted, pages in dissertation, and school business responsibility group to which study was assigned. Background of the Qpestionnaire As delineated in chapteriJ, the past twenty years bear witness to the continued effort on the part of A.S.B.O. leaders, both to extend research and to publicize the fruits of research. A growing awareness of the need to communicate information motivated the organization to publish the bibliography of plant and business references produced by Levin in 1953.1 The success of this project may well have played a part in the growing concern over "Hidden Research”--research completed in the past but filed away unnoticed and unused. In 1958 this feeling culminated in an expressed desire on the part of Association leaders to sponsor a study referred to as a "Hidden Research" project to compile a comprehensive bibliography of doctoral studies in school business affairs completed over a period of ten to fifteen years. Upon invita— tion the writer discussed the several aspects of the project with Dr. Rayburn J. Fisher, Chairman, University Contacts Committee and Dr. Charles W. Foster, Executive Secretary of the Association. As finally developed, the plan involved not only the compilation of the "Hidden ResearcH” studies but also a questionnaire study to determine the extent of use presently being made of completed works and to identi- fy techniques which might assist in the greater dissemination of find- ings. The national office agreed to give financial support to the study ISol Levin, A Selected Biblio ra h of B siness and Plant Refer- epces for the Administrator iKalamazoo, Michigan: The Association of School Business Officials of the United States and Canada, 1953). 7 to the extent of $100.00 and to mail the questionnaire to its membership with a covering letter of endorsement. Although definite assurance could not be made at that time, the h0pe was expressed that the final array of studies could be published in monograph form by the Associa~ tion. Groups from Which Samples were Drggn for Inclus on in the a ti ire The seventeen groupings according to school business responsibil« ity areas are shown in Table 1, page 8, together with the number-of studies in the basic bibliography assigned to each group. The original intention was to draw a sample of studies from each of the seventeen groups for inclusion In a questionnaire. However, since several of the groups contained a relatively small number of studies, it was decided that some groups.should be combined. It will be noted In Table i, that groups 2 and h were combined to form one group, Accpgntlng gnd Agditing; 7, 8, and 9 to form Buildings and Grounds Opgrption, MpipgpppnceI ppg Management; 12 and 13 to formlAuxiliary Servlpes - Transpprtation pnd Food Services, and groups 19 and 20 were combined to form Educational Eipgnce - Fipgncial Suppprt of Education. Table 1 indicates the number of studies in each of the seventeen groups and in each of the twelve after the above indicated consolidation. Drawing the Sample ,Because of the-impracticality of including the.antire list of studies in the questionnaire it was decided to include a stratified random sample. A ten percent sample was considered to be adequate and yet to maintain the number of studies at a level that would encourage No. of studies Sample in basic used in bibliog- question- No. School business responsibi raphy naire l Financial Planning ....... .. ---------- 22 3 2 Accounting ................. .......... 23 3 H Auditing ................... 3 Debt Service and Capital Fumagement-- 4| 5 5 Purchasing and Supply Manag ---------- ll 2 6 School Plant Planning and Cuction.... 180 18 7 Operation of Plant - Custod Engineering Services ..... 8 Maintenance of Plant ----------------- l7 2 9 Real Estate Management ..... 10 Personnel Management ----------------- 97 10 12 .Transportation of Pupils--- ion 13 Food Service Operations-c.. ---------- 6h 7 1“ Insurance ............................ 35 4 l5 Cost Analysis .............. t ......... 1+0 1} 17 Board Policies and Administ Related to Fiscal and Noni and 3' h 19 School Assessment Levy and ‘ Procedures ...............

The sample was drawn as follows: the cards bearing the author of each of the 721 dissertations were sorted according to the twelve groups shown in Table 1, page 8. In.turn the cards in each group were shuffled and cards were drawn from the top of each, equivalent to ten percent of the number of studies in that group. In case of a fraction, the next highest whole number was used providing a total of seventy-eight studies in the completed sample. Preparation of the Questionnaire The first section of the questionnaire (see Appendix B) was de- signed to determine the extent to which doctoral study findings are utilized or the extent of the desire to have them made available. To this end the seventy-eight sutdies drawn in the sample were listed a1- phabetically according to author. In respect to each of the studies the respondent was asked to indicate if he had.read the dissertation, an abstract of it, or an article about it. If his reply was negative in respect to these three questions he was asked to indicate whether he would like to have the findings made available. A second section of the questionnaire (see Appendix B) was de- veloped to identify techniques which might aid in the dissemination of research findings. Nine techniques were listed with an invitation to the respondent to rate them 0, l, 2 or 3, with 0 as unimportant and 3 as maximum value. Space was provided for the insertion of any tech- niques which the respondent might care to suggest. Finally the question- naire listed eight periodicals which commonly include articles dealing with school business topics. The respondent was asked to indicate which of the following described his reading pattern in regard to the publications: never, seldom, frequently, regularly. IO Mailing the Questionnaire The questionnaire was mailed to the 2165 members of A.S.B.O. residing in the United States. Mailings were not made to Canadian members because only studies completed in American colleges and uni- versities were included and these would have been more readily available to state-side members than to those residing in Canada. Response to the Questionnaire The geographical distribution of the members to whom the questionnaire was mailed and of the 576 replies is shown in Table 2, below. Replies were returned anonymously; no follow-up was possible to increase returns. TABLE 2 DISTRIBUTION OF A.S.B.O.

Although a greater return was anticipated, the replies were accepted as sufficient to be representative of the membership in each of the nine geographical areas. Organization of the Data As returns were received the information was entered on punch cards to permit tabulation, to the extent desired, according to states, 1h nine geographical areas or the educational levels In which respondents were employed.l It was agreed that it would be of value to know the extent of use made of study findings in the different geographical locations as well as at the different educational levels. Accordingly, plans were made to summarize the first section of the questionnaire to provide information to that extent. In respect to the second section of the questionnaire, concerned with the identification of techniques, decision was made to limit the summary to geographical areas. This decision was based on the premise that any implementation of techniques would be on a geographical basis. The third section of the questionnaire concerned the reading patterns of respondents in respect to periodicals which carry articles pertaining to school business matters. It appeared that it would be of value to ascertain the existing reading pattern in respect to geographi- cal sections as well as educational institutions or agencies in which the respondents were employed. The value attached to this extended analysis stemmed from the belief that a knowledge of the reading pate terns of personnel would be of value to persons involved in communica- tion of ideas to all sectors of the organization. Prepgring the Final Bibliography MAS pointed out earlier in this chapter, the original list in- cluded a total of 721 studies. Following the preparation and mailing of the questionnaire, the punch cards were utilized to print complete lThe term."educationa1 levels" is used to denote the type of educational institution or agency in which the respondent was employed (see Table 9.) 15 listings of all studies and related information which were then mailed to the Education Librarians of the eightyutwo universities and colleges involved. A brief explanation of the study was made and the assistance of the librarians sought in checking the bibliographical lists. This *was done in order that all information might be correct when finally entered in the bibliography. All librarians responded and a consider= able number of corrections were made; a few additional studies were suggested for inclusion. As a result of these suggestions and other studies secured through scattered sources, subsequent to the first tabua lation, a final bibliography of 760 studies was prepared and is to be found in Appendix C. All studies are grouped according to the seventeen areas of school business responsibility as developed in Bulletin 21 of the Association and as presented in Table l. The information in Figure 1, page 16, shows the distribution of the studies according to study completion years. Definition of Terms The comprehensive reading of any manuscript cannot be accom= plished without reader understanding of the terms employed by the author. Furthermore, the interests of both reader and author can best be served by the abbreviation oflonger terms appearing repeatedly in the manu= script. With these purposes in mind, the following definition of terms is presented: A.§,B,O. This is an abbreviation of the name of the Association of School Business Officials of the United States and Canada. Association This refers to A.S.B.O. or, as indicated above, the Association of School Business Officials of the United States and Canada. l6 amm— Loo> 530388 >ozum ou mc_ouooo< >soocmo__n_m .mc_u c_ mo_o:um _oL0uooa mo co_u:n_uum_o _ .m_u mmm_ mmm_ mmm_ 0mm. mmm_ amm_ mmm_ wmm_ .mm_ ema— o: m: om \\ mmmw \ / \ \ / \ \ can” \.

Limitations of the Study In any study early definition of the limiting factors becomes an essential primary Step. The following limitations are offered as an aid to proper definition of the scope of this study: The bibliography of doctoral studies (Appendix C) was compiled by means of a search of reference sources available through the library facilities at Michigan State University for the years 1950 through 1960. The grouping of doctoral studies in the school responsibility areas was performed on the basis of the judgment of the writer as to the area to which the study was most pertinent. 18 Studies included were limited to those dealing with school busi- ness affairs. Those relating to district reorganization, child aucount- ing, census or other areas more directly related to over-all administra- tion were not included. Studies included were limited to those relating to school busi- ness management below the college level. As there are school business officials functioning in schools in the United States who are not members of A.S.B.0. the title ”school business official” used in this study should be understood to refer to persons holding membership in A.S.B.O. Attention is called to the fact that a number of superintendents are members of A.S.B.O. and doubtless returned questionnaires. Based on membership in the organization, all respondents were considered as persons having either direct or indirect responsibility for the manage- ment of school business affairs; hence were classified as school busi- ness officials. Questionnaire reply solicitations were limited to persons resid- ing within the continental United States whose names appeared on the 1960 roster of A.S.B.O. Value of the Study Introduction _ Before consideration is given to the values to be derived from this project, the reader Should be reminded of the motivating concerns responsible for its inception. As stated in an earlier section of this chapter, these concerns stem from (I) the belief that only a limited amount of doctoral work has been and is being performed, and (2) l9 inadequate use is being made of the results obtained through research. The value of this study is to be found in the analysis to be made of the extent and the use of school business research and the techniques developed for the communication of research to school personnel. Extent of Resegppp_ At the time of first consideration of this project the writer was asked to venture an estimate of the number of doctoral studies completed during the last ten years. Influenced by the general belief that research has been limited in the school business field, the inquirer was told that probably no more than two hundred would have been com- pleted. However, the bibliography presented in Appendix C shows that 189 studies were completed in the area of School Plant Planning and Construction alone. An accurate determination of the status quo being an essential first-step in any improvement program, the bibliography being prepared as a part of this study should prove to be important as a measure of the extent of research and a guide for future study. Extent of Resegrch Utiliggpjpp As pointed out earlier in this chapter the claim is often made that only limited use is made of study findings. Realizing the importance of the findings to personnel on the job it becomes important that the problem be analyzed and, if the fears are well grounded, that Steps be taken to remove the communication blocks. A part of this study is designed to determine the extent to which studies are used as an aid 1n the development of a research improvement program. 20 The Bibliographypof Doctoral Studies The bibliography produced as a part of this study should consti- tute an effective tool for the communication of research. This classi- fied reference source will provide a view of the total research accomplished or of studies pertaining to specific areas of school management. The extended list of studies should be a valued help to the administrator in search of ready answers to his problems and to the counselor of doctoral candidates desiring to survey work accomplished. Technigues for Resegrch Disseminpplpp Probably the most important value of the study rests with the techniques deveIOped for the improvement of communication between the research center and the school business office. A perusal of these techniques should indicate the latitude of the prOposed action program. To be specific in respect to one area, it should be pointed out that the A.S.B.O. has, in the past, had limited affiliation with the uni- versities and colleges. Inherent in the program proposed is a closer relationship and united action in the implementation of the needed corrective measures. Only through this cooperative effort can research findings be effectively utilized. Of paramount importance is the fact that all techniques, to be effective, involve a combination of effort between the universities and colleges, State school business officials organizations, and A.S.B.O. The implementation of the techniques developed may well be the cementing influence needed to unite all forces into an action-oriented research program. If so, the efforts expended in this study will have been fruitful. CHAPTER II BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE Introduction The compilation of the bibliography included in this study stemmed from a recommendation of the University Contacts Committee of the A.S.B.O. that such a guide be prepared. To fully understand the background for the committee recommendation it Is important that one be familiar with the early interest in research on the part of the Associa- tion and the moving forces which gave continued impetus. not only to the expansion of research activities within the Association, but to efforts to assure that persons in the field might benefit from the results obtained. The Role of A.S.B.O. in the Promotion gpg Utilization of Research A historical review of the research programs of the Association of School Business Officials of the United States and Canada bears evidence of the Importance attached to research and to the dissemination of the information provided through research. Evidence of extended research horizons in school business affairs became visable In 1936. George W. Grill, A.S.B.O. Historian, in reviewing the.1936 annual meet- ing of that organization said: 21 22 There was a strong undercurrent of feeling that more and better research should be conducted and more services should be made avail- able to small and medium sized school districts.1 In reporting on the 19h0 A.S.B.O. convention in Detroit, President John C. Cate had this to say: An innovation this year was an exhibit of literature relating to the business administration of schools. Mr. George F. Smith, Jr., ' Director of Educational Supplies and Equipment, Baltimore, Maryland, spent a great deal of time in assembling this exhibit and it proved to be one of the most interesting places at the conven- tion. The value of the service rendered was further evidenced by the fact that the exhibit was again successfully employed at the 1941 convention. With the value established of having such services available, it natu- rally followed that concern should arise as to the best ways of obtain- ing the wide range of information needed. The case for research was stated by President Cate in his l9hl report when he said: In these rapidly changing times it behooves us to continue our research work in all departments of school administration so that we may be able to disseminate upnto-date information talall of our membership. A statement of difficulties faced in accomplishing President Cate's stated objectives appeared in an article In the May, 1943 issue of School Business Affairs as follows: IGeorge W. Grill, "School Business Finds a Voice,l'The Nation's Schools, (October, 1955), p. 61. 2John c. Cate, "Highlights of the 1940 Association of School Business Officials Convention in Detroit," School Business Affairs, (November, 19h0), p. 4. 3Association of School Business Officials of the United States and Canada, Proceedin s of the Thirtieth Anpggl Convention, (Atlantic City, New Jersey, I9EIL p. #6. 23 Experience has shown, however, that school business officials are so busy with the extremely heavy load of daily duties that they do not have the time for necessary research or the collection of adequate data bearing on these problems....similarly, vast quantic ties of research information are available if an agency could be created to collect, evaluate, and disseminate this information for the benefit of school building divisions. With the war effort demands and postcwar scarcities of materials, little attention was given to building construction during the World War 11 period and the years immediately following, a fact which caused the late A. D. Brainard, writing editorially for the A-S.B.O. to comment: Our association has produced valuable research studies on supplies, equipment, accounting, playground surfacing, and insurance, but there has been far too little research in the school building field.2 By the end of the l9h0 decade not only was interest high in the nonebuildlng areas of school management, but the post-war building pro- gram was beginning to take Shape. A realization of the arising need prompted the A.S.B.O. Research Committee on School Business Literature to take the following step, as reported by Committee Chairman George Smith in the 1950 Proceedings of the Association: Plans are being made to revise the bibliography issued in 1940, evaluate the listing and add new material. Sources of new material will be explored and some expression given to their possible contri- bution to our field. An attempt will be made to devise an index system and assign codes that will be practicable and convenient for use. 1John W.

This excellent reference source filled a great need and has been widely used in the field. During the 1950-60 decade there has been a considerable volume of research on the doctoral level focused on school business affairs subjects. With the increase in research in the early 1950's leaders in the school business field became concerned about the matter of liaison between the field and the university and college research centers. Accordingly, in 1954 a step was taken to break the gap when A.S.B.O. President S.C. Joyner recommended, and the Executive Committee approved, the.appointment of a twenty-one member committee to be known as the University Contacts Committee. As stated by A.C. Hutson, University Contacts Committee Chairman for 1954: The University Contacts Committee, appointed by President S.C. Joyner has been assigned the responsibility of constructing a two way avenue of mutual service between our Association and its .associated state and regional groups and the various universities and colleges in the respective states and provinces of the United States and Canada. One of the first.actions of this committee, as reported in the 1954 Proceedings, was the compilation of brief outlines of what were deemed to be important research topics to be passed on to the universities for possible inclusion in research programs.2 As a further highlight of the L lA.C. Hutson, "Report of the University Contacts Committee," School gusiness Al‘jpirs, (March, 1954)9P. 1. 2Association of School Business Officials of the United States and Canada, Proceedings of the Fortieth Annual Convention, (Los Angeles, California, 1954), p. 377." 25 year in the area of research, the Nation's Schools presented an amount of $1,000 to the Association to encourage and finance Association research in school business management.I In a further move to broaden and strengthen the program through- out the various states and provinces, one of the objectives of the committee for 1956-57 as reported in the 1956 Proceedings, was: To encourage the officials of all state and regional associa= tions of school business officials to appoint University Contacts Committees of the Association. With the acceleration of the research program there has been inn creasing fear on the part of professional educators that research findu ings are not used to greatest advantage. In his 1957 report, Dr. Charles W. Foster, Executive Secretary, A.S.B.O., had this to say in that connection: I am determined that in 1958 A.S.B.O. will have increased and greater emphasis upon research. We are concerned with the problem of lost research, research in the field of school business which has been accomplished on college and university level throughout the United States and Canada and of which we know nothing. We are con- cerned with accumulating this research and letting the members know about it. Rayburn J. Fisher has assured me they will c00perate with us.in this endeavor. and again in the same report, Dr. Foster adds: How can we stimulate better reseapch in our field: quality, depth, dissemination and coordination?

It is believed that often graduate students complete excellent research projects in school business administration, but for various reasons this .research is buried in the university archives or is lost somewhere .in the university files. At least, the results are not made readily available to school business officials in general. The concern of the Association was re-emphaslzed by A.S.B.O. President J. Harold Husband in his January, 1958 message when he stated that: The Association of a profession must assure its reliance on research. The professional Bibliography must be complete, continuing and significantly annotated. At the time.of the 1958 meeting of the Association in New York City, the writer discussed the proposed "Hidden Research” project with Or. Rayburn J. Fisher, Executive Secretary Foster and others close to the problem and indicated an interest in considering the project in connection with a doctoral program at Michigan State University. In October, 1958, Dr. Fisher addressed a letter to Dr. William H. Roe, Professor of Education, Michigan State University, asking that consider- ation be given to the granting of approval to the writer to complete a ."Hidden Research” project as a part of a doctoral program at Michigan State University.3 A study plan involving basically the "Hidden Research" project was developed and presented for doctoral committee IIbid., p.25. 2J.

An alternate plan was subsequently presented and approved which was designed not only to complete the study desired by the U.C.C. but to determine the extent to which research findings are read and to deve10p techniques for the greater implementation of research findings. Review of the Literature Early Bibliographical Publications Bibliographies on School Finance. Many of the bibliographical reference guides in school business affairs which were produced during the twenty year period following World War 1 related to the school plant, although significant reference guides appeared that were related to school finance. In 1924, AlexanderI produced a bibliography of pub- lications on educational finance which Levinz, in the introduction to his bibliography on business and plant references, credits as being the first published work dealing with the financial phases of school admin- istration. The work of Alexander, produced under the auspices of the American Council on Education, presented a compilation of the important ,books and articles published to that date, classified according to head- ings and sub-headings, with brief annotations. In 1932 Alexander and Covert produced a bibliography covering school finance publications during the 1923-1931 period.3 Although this iCarter Alexander, Bibliography on Educational Finance (New York: The MacMillan Company, 1924). 2Levin, op. cit., p. 15. 3Carter Alexander and Timon Covert, Bibliography on School Finance 1 2 - l, U. 5.

Office of Education, was not represented as exhaustive it included an extensive array of publications, including mimeographed and unpublished materials. The principal aim of the pub- lication was l'to stimulate school executives and research workers to progress in financing education“.I In 1949 the U. S. Office of Educa- tion published a bibliography by Covert including the earlier coverage to include the 1933-1948 years.2 Bibliographies on School Plant In the area of school plant planning and construction the work by Fowlkes and Carlile, published by the Bureau of Educational Research, University of Wisconsin, represents the first notable bibliography.3 This bibliography, gathered from the Reader's Guide, International Index, Poole's Index and from the reading lists of various books on the subject, contained 408 references to magazine articles and sixtyanine to books, bulletins, pamphlets and score cards. As stated in the for- ward: This bibliography attempts to reflect the growth, the present status and the future trend of most of the phases of schoolhouse planning and canstruction. Although not exhaustive, it covers a large part of the literature that Has been written on school build- ings during the past twenty years.

These were produced in six parts by Smith, Chamberlain, and others and were published by the Bureau of Cooperative Research and Field Service, School of Education, 1 Indiana University. The listings covering the 1906 - 1937 period, although not intended as exhaustive, provided sufficient references for adequate consideration of the subject areas involved and included 7,090 briefly annotated references.

Summarization .The significance of the aforementioned reference guides rests, not alone upon their value as communication instruments, but upon the role which they undoubtedly have played In the development of an aware» ness on the part of school business officials as to the extreme impor- tance of the dissemination of educational information through ready reference aids. During the years since World War II a considerable number of publication sources have been developed and maintained to publicize information available in books and articles. The United States Office of Education has periodically published reference list= ings such as the one by Munse and Booker In 1956 citing selected refer- ences in school finance.‘ Several publications have been developed to publicize doctoral research projects completed, or underway inHAmerican colleges and universities.2 In this study we are concerned with the extent to which the publication of studies has been effective in respect to the utilization of research and in the development of tech- niques which might.aid in the utilization of research findings. At this point it is of interest to turn our attention to completed bibliographical studies in school business affairs on the doctoral level. IAlbert R. Munse and Edna D. Booker, Sglppppg_figjfiépppps_pp §chool Finance, U. 5. Office of Education, Circular No. 2 Washington, D.C., U. S. Government Printing Office, 1956). 2See sources listed on page 3 of this study. 3l Bibliographical Studies on the Doctoral Level No bibliographical studies on the doctoral level were found untll the study by Levin in l953.I The scope of this study was broad, including 1,239 references aimed at providing the business adminis- trator with easy reference to information dealing with plant and busi- ness matters. Although the bibliography contains a large number of references, the author states that coverage was sought, not in terms of numbers of references, but rather on the location of a few good refero ences on as many topics as possible. As a first step, Levin studied the school business manager's job and made an analysis of the business functions. On the basis of this he developed the organization for the bibliography which included as major categories: The Administration of Schools and Their Business Affairs School Finance Purchasing and Supply Management School Plant Planning and Design Educational Facilities, Equipment, Supplies and Materials Building Materials and Construction Plant Operation and Maintenance Auxiliary Services oowoxmkww— From the many sources, over l,200 references were selected on the basis of the following criteria: Authoritativeness Comprehensiveness Recency Accessibility Particular recommendation by other references, bibliogra- phies, or persons consulted U‘I-L‘UJN— lLevin, op. cit. 32 These references were listed under headings and sub-headings of the eight major divisions. A cross-referencing and subject index system was employed to facilitate the use of the guide. The study by Levin has presented school business administrators with an excellent guide to information relating to the various problem areas. The cross-reference and subject index system employed has greatly facilitated its use. As stated by the author, the object of the study was not to accumulate large numbers of references but to present a wide coverage of information in respect to the many problem: areas in school business administration. The study by Taylor had as its objective the establishment of perceived research needs of professors of school administration-and professional school administrators and the comparison of perceived re- search-needs with an analysis of problem areas investigated in doctoral dissertations in the field of school administration from l9h5 through 1952.' The study by Taylor is pertinent to the present study in two respects: the use of an accumulated bibliography of research studies as a tool in the study and the effort to determine the adequacy of research in respect to the various problem areas in educational adminis- tration. The following selected problem areas were defined by a frequency count of research topics concerned with educational adminis- tration: lHarris Albert Taylor, "An Analysis of Doctoral Research.Prob- lems in School Administration” (unpublished Ed.D. dissertation, Stanford University, I954). 33 Financial support of education The administration of public school business affairs Maintenance and operation of the school plant Planning the school plant Teacher personnel Administrative staff Non-certified personnel Reorganization of school districts The legal basis of education ID. The school board ll. Public relations l2. Internal administration 13. Role of the chief administrator \DQNO‘U‘IPWNfl Each of 763 doctoral dissertations or its abstract, written in the field of educational administration from l9h5 to 1952, was examined and class- ified in one or another of the thirteen problem areas listed above. A paired comparison instrument was constructed to determine the relative research priority assigned by the reference groups to each of the thirteen selected problem areas in school administration. This was sent to two reference groups: every one of the 8h2 professors of school administration in the roster of The National Conference of Professors of School Administration and every tenth one of the 6,890 practicing school administrators listed on the 1952 membership roll of the American Association of School Administrators. Spearman's Rank Difference correlation method was used to determine the correlation between the per- ceived needs of school administrators and those of professors of school administration and to determine the correlation between the perceived research needs of the two reference groups and the topical frequency of doctoral research. Scale values, along with rank order, were utilized In making the final analysis. The following findings were reported by Taylor: 1. In general, the relative research priorities of the thirteen selected problem areas as established by the professors of school administration agree with those of the school administrators. 3h 2. On a national basis, the relative research priorities of the problem areas as established by the summary judgments of both refera ence groups agree highly with the topical frequency of recent doctoral research in school administration. 3. On the basis of the seven geographical sub=divisions, the relative research priorities of the problem areas as estimated by the summary judgments of both reference groups did not agree, in many in= stances, with the topical frequency of recent research. h. In general, greater agreement was found to exist between the relative research priorities of the problem areas as estimated by the summary judgments of the administrator information groups and the topical frequency of recent doctoral research in school administra= tion than was found to exist between the t0pical frequency of doctoral research and the relative research priorities of the problem areas as established by the summary judgments of the professor group.. 5. Greater research emphasis on the problem areas dealing with personal relationships by the school administrators would eliminate many of the differences found to exist between the relative research priorities of the problem areas as established by the summary judgments of both reference groups and the topical frequencies of recent doctoral research in school administration. The doctoral study completed by Collins in l958 relates in certain respects to the present study.I The purposes as stated by the author were threefold:2 i. To bring together in one publication a list of American doctoral theses completed in the area of school plant planning from l9i2 to l957. 2. To point out the pattern of the completed doctoral theses as they relate to school plant planning and design. 3. To recommend promising areas for future writers of doctoral theses in the field of school plant planning and design.

To meet the requirements of the first criterion the study must have been reported on educational subjects in the following publications: I. U. S. Library of Congress, Catalog Division, A List of Dissertations, Printed in I912238. Washington, D. C. Government Printing Office, I913-l9h0. 2.

(Formerly Microfiims Abstracts) Ann Arbor, Michigan, University Microfilm, 1938-1957. To meet the second criterion the study had to be directed toward, or have implication for, school plant planning. To meet the third criterion the study had to be directly con- cerned with, or have implications for, the construction and financing of new school buildings. Collins found 15,981 studies which satisfied the first criterion, of these, 957 satisfied the second and of the 957 there were 9ll which satisfied the third. In order to classify the 911 dissertations, Collins deveIOped "A Pattern for Classifying Doctoral Theses Pertaining to School Plant" with fourteen major categories and a total of ninety-eight categories in the total pattern. On the basis of the pattern the 911 disserta- tions were divided into three groups. Group 1 contained 209 studies devoted to the pattern; this listing is included in the main body of the dissertation with annotations covering 175 of the studies. Group II contained 377 dissertations, a part of each devoted to the pattern. Group III contained 325 dissertations with a part of each having 36 implications for a category of the pattern. Groups II and III are included in Collin's dissertation in Appendixes A and B, respectively. Eliminating studies completed prior to World War II, categories with only a limited number of dissertations, and those dissertations relating to problems in a particular state or local school district, Collins prepared a list of code descriptions where research is needed which included eighty-three categories in the pattern.I This list of code descriptions constitutes a valuable guide to be used in the selection of research projects. Summary This chapter has been concerned with the historical development of research in A.S.B.O. and the steps taken by that organization both to promote the growth of research and to increase the utilization of findings. The review of the literature reveals an early interest among educators in the preparation of reference guides to books and articles dealing with educational problems. While a paucity of bibliographical studies on the doctoral level was found, the fact was revealed that the Association took an early interest in promoting such studies.as evidenced by the sponsorship of the work by Levin in 1953 as well as the present project. Ilbid., pp. 149-150. CHAPTER III SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS OF DATA Introduction The degree of utilization of research is a matter of prime importance both to the educational program in need of tie answers to professional problems and to research itself which constantly needs the vitalization which can only come from productive effort. In this chapter attention is given to an analysis of the questionnaire findings to determine, not only the adequacy of use made of research, but also the techniques and procedures which, if implemented, might aid in the dissemination of research findings. Extent of Research During the planning stages of the present study several of the writer's colleagues offered conjectures relative to the number of disser- tations in school business affairs completed during the l950-60 year period. The general feeling as expressed was that not more than two hundred would be found and that much of the research would relate to school plant construction. The final bibliography includes a total of 760 dissertations dis- tributed among the seventeen areas of school business responsibility as .indicated in the Guide to Bibliography (see p. ll5). As will be noted there was a concentration of research in three sectors of school busi-= ness management: School Plant Planning and Construction, Educational 37 38 Finance, and Personnel Management. The greatest concentration of research related to School Plant Planningiand Construction, a reasonable fact when we consider the emphasis placed on plant construction during the last fifteen years to meet the needs of increased population and to replace obsolete buildings. Likewise it is not surprising to find that a great research effort has been expended on Finance and Personnel in consideration of the basic importance of such matters to successful school operation. In the other areas a lesser, but still considerable, number of studies had been carried out. Limited research was found re- lating to Auditing, Maintenance of Plant, Operation of Pipppg Real Estate Management and School AssessmentALevyAgnd I x ColleCtion Procedures. Included in Bulletin 21l are two additional areas of responsibility rel- ative to which no research was found namely, Property Records - Custody of Legal Papers and Reporting. Dissertations dealing with Elections and Bond Referenngwere included either under Debt Servicegpnd_§apital Fund Management, Educational Finance, or Taxation as the nature of the study dictated. Extent to Which Doctoral Research is Read by School Business Personnel Extent to Which Dissertations are Read As stated earlier in this dissertation, the concern has been shared by many that inadequate use is made of doctoral research. If the essential purpose of research is to provide better answers to pro- fessional.problems, then this concern, if proven to be valid, has serious implications. One of the basic objectives of this study 4* ‘! lHill, op. cit., page 21. 39 involves an evaluation of the validity of this concern by a determina- tion of the extent to which doctoral studies are read by school business personnel. Even a full realization of the concern of others failed to pre- pare the wrlter for the seriousness of the problem as revealed by the findings. On an average dissertations were reported as having been read by less than three-fourths of one percent of the 576 persons replying. Furthermore, the dissertation read by the greatest number of respondents (Egly's) had been read by only six percent of the total group. Only fifteen of the seventy-eight dissertations had been read by more than one percent of the total group replying. Within the limits of this study the point must be conceded that an extremely high percentage of dissertations are filed away unused. Columns 2 and 3 of Table 3,. below, show the limited extent of the reading of the dissertations listed in the questionnaire.

The fact that an abstract--a study brief--can be quickly scanned might lead to the assumption that many would be sought out and read. Furthermore, the fact that an increas- ingly greater number of abstracts are available in libraries, due to expanded microfilming Operation, might likewise lead to the belief that many are read. An analysis of the findings shows the contrary fact to be true. Based on the total replies, an average of slightly more than one percent of the group replying read abstracts of completed studies. The one read by the greatest number (Egly's) had been read by only a little more than seven percent of those replying. Two others had been read by as much as three percent of the group. Any complacency which may have existed in this quarter should now have disappeared. The find- ings reveal that abstracts of dissertations are nearly as far removed from personnel In the field as are the dissertations. Columns 4 and 5 of Table 3 present the complete findings for all of the studies in the questionnaire. Egtgnt to Which Articles are Read The fact that articles relating to specific research investiga- tions appear frequently might tend to substantiate the belief that a large amount of research information finds its way to the school busi- ness administrator. The facts as ascertained do not support that premise. On an average, less than threegpercent of those replying had read articles pertaining to the studies. As in both dissertation and abstract reading, the study by Egly received the greatest attention from 43 the respondents. However, less than thirteen percent indicated a know- ledge of this study of Fringe Benefits in spite of the fact that the study was produced in monograph form by A.S.B.O. Only four of the studies, in addition to the one by Egly, had been reviewed in articles by as much as seven percent of the group. In spite of any theories to the contrary the findings indicate that only a limited number of persons acquaint themselves with research by means of printed articles. Columns 6 and 7 of Table 3 present the complete findings for all of the studies included in the questionnaire. Supplementary Information The information obtained from the respondents and entered on punch cards provided for tabulation according to geOgraphical areas and educational levels.1 Tables 8 and 9 to be found in Appendix A are in- cluded as supplemental information relative to the extent to which research is read or desired available according to the geOgraphical areas and educational levels respectively. Summarization In the light of the foregoing findings, the allegations that in- adequate use is made of research appear to be well founded. Not only are dissertations unused but abstracts--condensatlons of findings--are consulted by only one percent of school personnel. While the volume of articles produced which relate to research studies might give cause for satisfaction, little can be taken from the disclosure that less than IThe term "educational levels” is used to denote the type of educational institution or agency in which the respondent was employed. threeppercent of a group representing one-fourth of those on the A.S.B.0. membership indicated that they had read articles pertaining to dissertations. We can only conclude that much remains to be done in the area of communication of research information. Extent to Which Doctoral Research Findings Are Read in Respect to the Areas of School Business Responsibility As explained in an earlier section (see page 8) the studies in- cluded in the basic bibliography were classified into seventeen groups representing areas of school business responsibility. For purpose of the questionnaire these were consolidated into twelve groups and from each a sample was drawn for inclusion in the questionnaire. The draw- ing of a sample from each group was done in order to permit a determina- tion of the differences in research reading which might exist in respect to the several responsibility areas. Extent to Which Dissertptions are Read Dissertations relating to Insurance were reported as having been read by the greatest number of respondents. The readings as reported, however, were extremely limited; dissertations in this group were reported as having been read by slightly less than one and one-half percent of the respondents. The group entitled, Board Policies and Administrative Procedgres as Related to Fiscal and Noninstrgctippgl_ Matters, claimed second position with nearly one and one-fourth percent of the group having read the dissertations. Least interest--less than one-fourth of one percent of the group--was exhibited in respect to Financial Planning a Budgeting. Little reading was indicated in respect to Cost Analysis, Egpcational Finance, or Debt Service with 4S dissertations reported as read by less than one-third of one percent of the respondents. Although differences in respect to the reading of dissertations do exist in respect to the different areas of responsibil- ity the point should be re-emphasized that the reading contacts with dissertations relating to any group were extremely limited. Column 3 of Table 4, below, shows the extent to which each of the dissertations in the respective groups had been read as well as the average for each group. Table 4.

Extent to Which Ab§tracts pre Read In respect to the extent of abstract readings the group Board Policies and Administrative Procedures as Related to Fiscal pnd Non- Instructional Matteps lead all others with readings by slightly more than two percent of the respondents. Studies dealing with Insgrpppe ranked second with approximately one and three-fourths percent of those 51 replying having read the abstracts. Less than one-half of one percent indicated that they had read abstracts dealing with dissertations 1n Debt Service and Capital FundAManagement, and in so indicating relegated this group to the ”least interest” position. The impact of abstract reading can only be considered low when we realize that, even in the case of the group toward which the greatest interest was shown, abstracts were reported as having been read by only two percent of the respondents. Column 3 of Table 5 presents a recapitulation of the find- ings in Table 4 relative to abstract readings. Extent to Which Articles are Read Most extensive article reading was reported in the area of Purchasing and Sgpply Management with articles reported as having been read by slightly more than six percent of the respondents. Insurance articles received second place attention having been read by approxi- mately five percent of the group. Again in position of least attention we find Debt Service and Cgpjtal Fund Management with articles read by less than one and one-thirdppercent of the respondents.
