  abstract: priority needs principals have for their careers, and
  abstract: to identify and describe the growth and adaptation
  abstract: levels of principals as revealed from the data in the
  abstract: initial year of the longitudinal study. Survey
  abstract: research methodology was used for gathering and
  abstract: reporting the data in this inquiry. The survey
  abstract: population was the set of randomly selected 600
  abstract: principals from the
  abstract: public elementary, middle, and high schools in
  abstract: Missouri, South Carolina, and Texas. The instrument
  abstract: employed in this study was the third modified format
  abstract: after a series of pilot studies on the professional
  abstract: needs of principals sponsored by the Texas A&M
  abstract: University Principals' Center. The questionnaire has
  abstract: three parts: (1) background information; (2)
  abstract: principals' priority needs (Educational Program,
  abstract: Personal Relations, and Program Support) with four
  abstract: dimensions (or priority area) in each category. Each
  abstract: dimension was represented by two possible choices:
  abstract: Choice 1 (performance mode), and Choice 2 (learning or
  abstract: development mode) as identified by Boyatzis & Kolb
  abstract: (1992). An open-ended question sought additional
  abstract: priorities. Data from the questionnaire were obtained
  abstract: using the methods outlined in Educational Research..
  abstract: An Introduction (Gall, Borg, & Gall, 1996) and
  abstract: analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social
  abstract: Studies (SPSS). Percentage and frequency distributions
  abstract: were developed to address the research questions. The
  abstract: open-ended question responses related to professional
  abstract: needs not included in Sets A, B, and C were
  abstract: classified, modified, and added to the 1998 survey
  abstract: questionnaire. The results indicated that Staff
  abstract: Development, Campus Role Relationships, Parent
  abstract: Relationships, Organizational Control, and External
  abstract: Support are the highest priority needs identified by
  abstract: principals across the three states. The open-ended
  abstract: question has been proven as a critical means for
  abstract: making appropriate changes in the existing
  abstract: questionnaire. In regard to the responses to
  abstract: principals' professional growth and adpation levels,
  abstract: the overwhelming majority of respondents selected
  abstract: Level 2 priorities.
