Theory is an analytical tool, a model of reality that should have:◦ Explanatory value◦ Predictive value
About theory
![Page 5: Research on student citizenship behaviors and the implications for practice](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062323/56816690550346895dda6ada/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
1. Noun - A nationality status. For example I am a citizen of the United States of America.
2. Verb – A participation in the governance process. For example I vote.
a) In the USA this is participation in the multiparty representative democratic process.
b) In the PRC this is participation in the Communist Party democratic process.
About citizenship
![Page 6: Research on student citizenship behaviors and the implications for practice](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062323/56816690550346895dda6ada/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Mark Frederick and I decided to collect data on the extent to which students self reported participating in behaviors associated with citizenship, as well as behaviors associated with critical thinking, with self awareness . . .
About citizenship

When students walk across the stage at graduation, what citizenship behaviors do you want them to do?
(Theory to research)
Citizenship behaviors

Start with many items, end up with a few◦ Conceptual analysis
Are there too many about voting?◦ Answer distribution
Does everyone score the same? Is there a range?◦ Item intercorrelation
Are two or more items too highly correlated?◦ Scale reliability
How will including, or excluding, an item affect alpha?
◦ (Theory to research)

I spend time researching candidates before I vote. For example I will read some independent sources about more than one presidential candidate before making up my mind.

I am serious about voting. For example I actively access the media to learn about and to address questions about a candidate’s platform, beliefs, and values.

I am informed of current events. For example I regularly read, listen, or watch various media to remain current in my knowledge of local, regional, national and international events.

I can identify good political leaders. For example I am able to report to others the values, voting records, platform and political philosophy held by political leaders and understand how these compliment or contrast to those of the community.

I engage in the political process through voicing viewpoints. For example I write letters to the editor, engage in debate with others, or contact political leaders to voice my opinion.

The UniLOA citizenship scale reflects behaviors qualitatively analyzed to create a grounded theory of citizenship that was quantitatively analyzed to be reliable and conceptually analyzed to be valid.
Grounded theory
![Page 21: Research on student citizenship behaviors and the implications for practice](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062323/56816690550346895dda6ada/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
A factor analysis using varimax rotation identified two groups of items on the UniLOA:
◦ Factor one, (eigenvalue of 23.3): Interdependence was composed primarily of 15 items from 6 of the 7 scales.
◦ Factor two, (eigenvalue of 2.7): Citizenship was composed of 9 of the 10 items on that scale.
