Training: An Analysis of Employees’ Attitudes.
Doctor of Education, Applied Training, Technology
and Development (ATTD), May 2005, 135 pp., 18
tables, references, 47 titles.
The purpose of this study was to determine
employees’ attitudes and perceptions toward the
effectiveness of workplace violence prevention
training within a U.S. Government service agency
with 50 offices located in Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Chapter 1 presents an overview of the phenomenon of
workplace violence, the movement toward prevention
programs and policies and the implementation of
prescreening processes during hiring and violence
prevention training. Chapter 2 contains a thorough
review of pertinent literature related to violence
prevention training and the impact of occupational
violence. An assessment of 1000 employees concerning
their attitudes and perceptions toward the
effectiveness of workplace violence prevention
training was measured, assessed, and compared.
Significant differences were found calling for the
rejection of the three study hypotheses. Chapter 4
and 5 describe the study findings and
recommendations.
