摘要
The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a measure of intellectual stimulation in the college classroom. Based on the notion of transformational leadership articulated by Bass (1985) and the operationalization of teacher behaviors reported by Bolkan and Goodboy (in press), we created a quantitative measure for which no alternative existed. Results suggest that the Student Intellectual Stimulation Scale (SISS) has a stable factor structure, high internal reliability, and convergent and concurrent validity. Findings are discussed in relation to students' expectations of class workloads, demanding courses, and the culture of "college lite.''
