Title
A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF FACTORS INFLUENCING EVALUATED JOB SUCCESS FOR BLACK AND WHITE WORKERS: A CETA PROGRAM CASE STUDY.
Creator
PERROTTA, ANN R., Florida Atlantic University
Abstract/Description
Regression analyses were used to test the influence of individual characteristics such as I. Q., job satisfaction, race, and sex upon the work performance evaluation completed by job site supervisors for a single cohort of participants in a CETA sponsored training program conducted in Broward County, Florida. The CETA cohort was composed of two sub-groups, grantee employees (CETA Title VI participants) and regular employees (entry-level municipal employees). The initial regression analyses...
Show moreRegression analyses were used to test the influence of individual characteristics such as I. Q., job satisfaction, race, and sex upon the work performance evaluation completed by job site supervisors for a single cohort of participants in a CETA sponsored training program conducted in Broward County, Florida. The CETA cohort was composed of two sub-groups, grantee employees (CETA Title VI participants) and regular employees (entry-level municipal employees). The initial regression analyses yielded evidence of contextual effects operating within the CETA cohort. Although the two sub-groups were similar in demographic composition, I. Q. operated as a major predictor among the grantee employees, but for the regular employees it was race (black). These analyses were supported by further multiple group comparison tests, and, together, suggested that other factors in the environment may have a greater impact on evaluated job performance and eventual job success rather than individual worker characteristics. Based Oil these findings proposals are made outlining potential modifications of minority job training programs.

Show moreThis thesis involves the results of a questionnaire distributed to all members of the American Society of Association Executives and pertains to holding meetings, conventions or trade shows in Western Europe. It was concluded that such meetings improve the communications which is necessary among men and women of the same profession or trade. Western European hotels and convention facilities must improve to meet the standards of American association executives. Language barriers and distance are two barriers which are being overcome. There is evidence that continued progress will be made in resolving the technical barriers which have caused American associations to stay within the United States.

This model study reflects a possible solution or positive approach to this situation, in that most volunteer organizations would be interested in developing an evaluation system of members' performance in order to: 1. improve organizational structure for the purpose of increasing efficiency and effectiveness in achieving the organization's purpose; 2. identify future leaders for the purpose of insuring better preparation, training, exposure and broader experience prior to the assumption of top management positions; 3. create "career path opportunities" within the association for the purpose of keeping above average volunteer job performers in the "system," and at the same time demonstrate the upward mobility possible via promotion of the above average performers .
