warranted toconfirm that the new measure of GTA‟s need assessment can be used as a reliable and valid toolacross institutions for other institutions to adopt it for guiding their TA training efforts. On apractical stance, this survey helps us design and develop TA training modules that are inclusiveand comprehensive to allow for various interest groups to customize their own program oftraining. For GTAs who may be more extrinsically motivated, informing them of the importanceallocated to various characteristics (and by implication the criteria by which they may beevaluated) may serve to motivate them.References1.
