Designing a Commercialization Model for Research Achievements at a Military University Research Institute by Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling

Background and Aim: Today, in universities and research institutes, the lack of attention to commercialization makes it impossible or difficult to enter the markets for technology and research products. therefore, this study aims to design a commercialization model for research achievements of a military research institute. Methods: This descriptive-analytic study was done in a cross-sectional ...

Twittering to increase student engagement in the university classroom

In this paper, we explored the research question: Does Twitter in a large-lecture format university course produced a difference in levels of selfreported student engagement? To do so, we utilize a quasi-experimental design testing the effect of Twitter on student engagement in introductory sociology and anthropology courses. Our hypotheses predicted that students using Twitter would report hig...

Assessing Knowledge Management: Refining and Cross Validating the Knowledge Management Index Using Structural Equation Modeling Techniques

With growing interest in knowledge management (KM)-related assessments and calls for rigorous assessment tools, the objective of this study was to apply structural equation modeling (SEM) techniques to refine and cross validate the KM index (KMI), a metric to assess the degree to which organizations are engaged in KM. Unlike previous KM metrics research that has focused on scales, we modeled th...
