numerous transitional points. In developmentalmodels from the field of psychology, empathy tends to be a peripheral but important component.For example, many of these models emphasize the individual’s cognitive growth as a parallelcomponent to their social development (e.g., Hoffman19, Kohlberg34). Other models integrate allaspects of development into a single unifying staged theory, be it their cognitive/ethicaldevelopment (e.g., Perry35) or their reflective judgement (e.g., King and Kitchener36).Stage models tend to include lower stages or tiers of development that the individual attains inearly adolescence. For example, Hoffman developed a stage model of empathic development, butthis model focused solely on the concept of empathic distress

theanalysis we focus on how these engineers reflect on their fit in each job and how they account fortheir decision to pursue a second term of internship or co-op at an organization or, alternately,how they decided not to return. We highlight the cases of three engineers who represent twodifferent experiences of young engineers: trying lots of internships as a student and finding agood fit before graduation versus trying one internship as a student and perceiving oneself as apoor fit for one’s job after graduation. We therefore use this analysis to examine the relationshipbetween undergraduate work experience, perceived fit in a work environment, andattrition/persistence in engineering.Analyses in this area are important to conduct because there is a

I am an inventor withover 30 US Utility patents, and have been teaching the use of patent database searching, as anintegral component of design research for 8 years. Research is an early stage design heuristic andan essential part of the functional-technical process of inquiry for creative projects, especiallythose seeking inventive solutions.

Several explanationshave been proposed for these low correlations: • Verbal reports obtained during task performance may lack reliability and would not validly reflect people’s cognitive or affective states; • responses to questionnaires typically reflect people’s beliefs or perceptions about their general learning and do not capture specific learning tasks; or • questionnaires and think-aloud protocols measure different kinds of metacognition.The first of these explanations has been addressed by several researchers, most

As a scan of Table 1 illustrates, it is difficult to use the tabulated responses to theindividual survey questions to pick out important programmatic issues. A more effective methodis to recognize that certain subgroups of questions examine the same aspect of students’satisfaction. Individual questions in the subgroups simply examine issues from differentperspectives. Collectively, these subgroups define broader-based measures, or “qualityindicators.” For example, looking at Table 1, items 1, 2 and 6 reflect students’ satisfaction withinstruction in their
