Giving and Summoning Autonomy Support in Hierarchical Relationships

Social and Personality Psychology Compass, 2015
Abstract It is not easy to motivate and engage others in a way that is welcomed, effective, and relationship‐enriching. In a hierarchical relationship, supervisors' motivating styles and supervisees' agentic engagement–disengagement are often in conflict, rather than in synch.

CSCL Scripting Patterns: Hierarchical Relationships and Applicability

Sixth IEEE International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies (ICALT'06), 2006
The use of patterns in e-learning is being recently proposed with different purposes and scopes. This paper provides a unifying view of several representative proposals in order to situate and introduce the types of patterns that can be used for generating collaboration scripts that are suitable of being computationally represented and interpreted by ...

How Different Hierarchical Relationships Impact Evolution

2007
The evolutionary behavior of three hierarchical relationships, HIFFC, HIFF-II and HIFF-M is studied in the context of two computational models, J and JGA. In J, entities are composed from other entities in the population. JGA is a panmictic genetic algorithm.

Relationship among Reading Subskills: A Hierarchical Hypothesis

Journal of Reading Behavior, 1975
A set of 6 grapheme-morpheme correspondence skills measured by the Kennedy Institute Phonics Test (KIPT) (Guthrie, 1973) was tested for goodness of fit to the Quasi-Markov Simplex model for hierarchical structures among variables (Joreskog, 1970). The hierarchical order from simple to complex was hypothesized to be: single letter production, initial ...

Modelling Hierarchical Relationships in Group Recommender Systems

2015
Group recommender systems have become systems of great interest in the CBR community. In previous papers we have described and validated a social recommendation model that solves different group recommendation challenges using knowledge from social networks. In this paper we have run across two identified limitations of our model, unprofiled users and “

Optimal Monitoring in Hierarchical Relationships

2000
This paper studies an agency framework in which a principal hires a supervisor to monitor the agent's productive effort. We consider several monitoring technologies which differ in the quantity (frequency) and the quality (accuracy) of the information they deliver. We show that the frequency of monitoring is irrelevant if the supervisor is honest or if
