Exploratory Field Study of Training Motivation Infiluence of Involvement, Credibility, and Transfer Climate
TLDR
This article explored the effects of several contextual factors on training motivation and found that perceived job utility of training significantly predicted training motivation, decision involvement resulted in higher perceptions of job and career utility, decision-maker credibility affected job satisfaction, and supervisor training transfer climate affected anticipated job utility.Abstract:
The focus of this study was exploring the effects of several contextual factors on training motivation. Participants (N = 245) from 12 organizational training groups were given surveys designed to measure pretraining motivation, expected job and career utility of training, peer and supervisor training transfer climate, involvement in decision to be trained, and decision-maker credibility. Structural equations modeling indicated that (a) perceived job utility of training significantly predicted training motivation, (b) decision involvement resulted in higher perceptions of job and career utility, (c) decision-maker credibility affected job and career utiflity, and (d) supervisor training transfer climate affected anticipated job utility. Implications of the findings for increasing the effectiveness of training are discussed.read more

Toward an integrative theory of training motivation: A meta-analytic path analysis of 20 years of research.
TL;DR: Meta-analytically summarizes the literature on training motivation, its antecedents, and its relationships with training outcomes such as declarative knowledge, skill acquisition, and transfer and shows that training motivation explained incremental variance in training outcomes beyond the effects of cognitive ability.

The flawed four-level evaluation model
TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that the four-level system of training evaluation is really a taxonomy of outcomes and is flawed as an evaluation model and propose a new model based on existing research and accounts for the impact of the primary intervening variables such as motivation to learn, trainability, job attitudes, personal characteristics, and transfer of training conditions.

Significance tests and goodness of fit in the analysis of covariance structures
TL;DR: In this article, a general null model based on modified independence among variables is proposed to provide an additional reference point for the statistical and scientific evaluation of covariance structure models, and the importance of supplementing statistical evaluation with incremental fit indices associated with the comparison of hierarchical models.

Convergent and discriminant validation by the multitrait-multimethod matrix.
TL;DR: This transmutability of the validation matrix argues for the comparisons within the heteromethod block as the most generally relevant validation data, and illustrates the potential interchangeability of trait and method components.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of training design, trainee, and work-environment factors on conditions of transfer are reviewed and critiqued, including the need to test various operationalizations of training and work environment factors that have been posited as having an impact on transfer.
