University Libraries Promotion and Tenure Recognition

I have chosen this text in honor of my friend and mentor, Robert K. Gable, professor Emeritus of educational psychology, University of Connecticut. Gable significantly impacted my career development and provided me with an outstanding learning experience while a student at the University of Connecticut. His text on instrument development has guided much of my own research and led to the development of a number of widely used affective instruments (e.g., Reader Self Perception Scale, Professional Development Inventory). I treasure his friendship and guidance.
