I have had some really encouraging findings recently and am excited to move forward on this project. I believe the measurement to be in very good shape for measuring individual-level connection to voluntary groups. In the up-coming months, I am going to be testing out the measure in other types of group, strengthening the theory behind PNC, and setting boundary conditions.

Please e-mail me if you have any questions about my PNC research.

My talk is the first of three studies, which attempts to create a valid and reliable measure for Perceived Network Connection. In this presentation, I present a 19-item measure for PNC, shows it reliability, and begin to show its validity.

Basically the change is in viewing PNC as a higher order factor.

The biggest change to the presentation from my last talk on this topic is a update and slight modification of the model. The definition that I am trying out tomorrow is more precise than the definitions I have used in the past. The model is in the graphic below and then you can go to the “Connection Research” tab to see the full presentation.

The full presentation can be found here.
