The primary purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of a time management training program upon occupational stress levels and modification of the Type A behavioral pattern among college administrators. / Data will be obtained from 50 subjects who are employed as department chairpersons, deans or educational administrators at The Florida State University and Florida A&M University. These individuals will be randomly assigned into a treatment group (time management training) or control group (no time management training). Because of possible subject sensitization to the treatment, a post-test only design will be utilized. / The instruments used for the purposes of this study are: The Occupational Environment Scales (Osipow & Spokane, 1981) and the Jenkins Activity Survey (Jenkins, Zyzanski & Roseman, 1965). Multiple confidence intervals will be used to determine if time management training is effective in reducing occupational stress and modifying Type A behavior among the educational administrators. It is hypothesized that the treatment group (time management training) will exhibit significantly lower levels of occupational stress and Type A behavior characteristics than the control group (those not receiving time management training). / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 47-12, Section: A, page: 4245. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1986.
