Abstract BackgroundRepeated admission to hospital can be a stressful and negative experience for older people and their families and puts additional pressure on the health care system. While there is evidence about strategies to better integrate care and improve older patients' experiences at transitions of care, thus helping to reduce hospital readmissions, implementing these strategies at scale is challenging. The objective of this project is to improve the pathways of care for older people after discharge from hospital by leveraging existing large datasets and an established collaborative network of clinicians, consumers, academics, and aged care providers. MethodsThe project will be undertaken in the state of South Australia and focuses on people aged 65 and over. A mixed methods approach will be adopted, with three inter-linked work packages that aim to: analyse existing registry data to profile individuals at high risk of emergency department encounters and hospital admissions; evaluate the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of existing ‘out-of-hospital’ programs provided within the state; implement and evaluate a statewide quality improvement collaborative to tackle key interventions likely to improve older people’s care at points of transitions. The study is underpinned by an integrated approach to knowledge translation, with active engagement of a broad range of stakeholders throughout, to optimize the relevance and sustainability of the changes that are introduced. DiscussionThis project highlights the uniqueness and potential value of a multi-faceted approach (risk profiling; evaluation framework; implementation and evaluation) to improving health services. The project aims to develop a practical and scalable solution to a challenging health service problem for frail older people and service providers.Trial registrationNot applicable.

Abstract. We describe the development and validation of an instrument for measuring the affective component of primary school teachers’ attitudes towards self-regulated learning. The questionnaire assesses the affective component towards those cognitive and metacognitive strategies that are especially effective in primary school. In a first study (n = 230), the factor structure was verified via an exploratory factor analysis. A confirmatory factor analysis with data from a second study (n = 400) indicated that the theoretical factor structure is appropriate. A comparison with four alternative models identified the theoretically derived factor structure as the most appropriate. Concurrent validity was demonstrated by correlations with a scale that measures the degree to which teachers create learning environments that enable students to self-regulate their learning. Retrospective validity was demonstrated by correlations with a scale that measures teachers’ experiences with self-regulated learning. In a third study (n = 47), the scale’s concurrent validity was tested with scales measuring teachers’ evaluation of the desirability of different aspects of self-regulated learning in class. Additionally, predictive validity was demonstrated via a binary logistic regression, with teachers attitudes as predictor on their registration for a workshop on self-regulated learning and their willingness to implement a seven-week training program on self-regulated learning.

Abstract. The current paper presents the development and validation of a unit-level Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) scale based on the Referent-Shift Consensus Model (RSCM). In Study 1, with 124 individuals measured twice, both an Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and a Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) established and confirmed a five-factor solution (helping behavior, sportsmanship, loyalty, civic virtue, and conscientiousness). Test–retest reliabilities at a 2-month interval were high (between .59 and .79 for the subscales, .83 for the total scale). In Study 2, unit-level OCB was analyzed in a sample of 129 work teams. Both Interrater Reliability (IRR) measures and Interrater Agreement (IRA) values provided support for RSCM requirements. Finally, unit-level OCB was associated with group task interdependence and was more predictable (by job satisfaction and integrity of the supervisor) than individual-level OCB in previous research.
