Using the diagram of a theory provided in the Bachrach (1989, p. 499) article, clearly identify the Castille et al. article’s constructs, pComponents and theory boundary(ies). (See Figure 1, Components of a theory).
What does the term operationalize mean? How were the Castille et al. constructs, propositions, and theory boundary(ies) operationalized?
How were Castille et al.’s hypotheses tested? Do the tests of hypothesizes appear to be appropriate?
What were the research’s findings? Are the findings generalizable?
