Facilitating and Limiting Factors Relative to Learning to Cope With the Added Role of Student for Adults Who Return to School on a Part-Time Basis in Business Programs
This exploratory study is one of several studies currently looking at the relationship between perceived functionality of role behavior, related learning activities, and related change patterned on the methodology used by Farmer and Knox (1977). The related change in this study is perceived change …
