This paper introduces the Repertory Grid Technique (RGT), developed in personal construct psychology, for Technology Enhanced Formative Assessment (TEFA). Repertory Grid is a method for eliciting personal constructs of learners about elements belonging to the topic of study. The method of Repertory Grid is presented first followed by brief descriptions of two classroom studies and two eye-track...

PURPOSE Beliefs about medicines impact on adherence, but eliciting core beliefs about medicines in individual patients is difficult. One method that has the potential to elicit individual core beliefs is the "repertory grid technique." This study utilized the repertory grid technique to elicit individuals' beliefs about their heart failure treatment and to investigate whether generated construc...

Repertory grids are used widely in Personal Construct Psychology (PCP) research. An array of accepted techniques for analysing grid data is available to researchers. This paper revisits the use of formal concept analysis (FCA) in analysing repertory grids. It particular, this paper focuses on using FCA to explore hierarchical structures in grid data. A description of the technique is provided, ...

This paper reports on a study exploring the cognition of executives regarding business-IT alignment. The project uses a cognitive mapping technique, known as the repertory grid, to explore the nature of the social dimension of alignment and its relationship to the intellectual dimension. The primary aims of this paper are to discuss the application and the contributions of the repertory grid to...

This paper describes the use of the Repertory Grid Technique as a method of externalizing people's experience of three types of modalities used to represent the same data stream. The primary aim of this study is to test the methodology, so from a repertory grid study that included 12 participants, we focused the analysis presented in this paper on one participants’ response. Future work will in...

Structuring a problem is a key part of decision making. For multiple criteria decision problems, defining the criteria is an important element of the structuring process. To provide a decision maker with a general instrument for identifying relevant criteria, two methods representing different approaches were empirically evaluated. This evaluation showed that Kelly’s repertory grid technique in...

Introduction: Trends in Employee Selection Significant developments in techniques and methods of employee selection have been reported over the last decade[l,2,3]. Despite these advances, the evidence is that organisations remain reluctant to change fundamentally their employee recruitment procedures. Indeed, successive large-scale surveys spanning almost 20 years reveal few changes in organisa...

although there is relatively substantial literature about what management is, how it works and what functions are there, but the research findings about what the effective managers do and what features are entitled, is limited. in this context, this paper has extracted individual constructs of managers about managerial effectiveness to provide managerial effectiveness system from point of view ...

The construct system of a patient of Depression is investigated with the Rank Order Repertory Grid Technique, using principal component analysis to analyse the grid matrix. The investigation helps test clinical judgments and hypotheses concerning the patient and also suggests new directions for further clinical enquiry. This case study demonstrates how the grid technique can make possible a mor...
