Description
The primary goal of this quantitative study was to investigate the connection
between instructor self-concept and prosocial behavior and its impact on student learning;
thus, gaining more knowledge about assessment of instructor fit for online,
undergraduate, business first-year experience (FYE) courses. If an instructor’s selfconcept
is related to the degree of prosocial behavior exhibited, then an instructor with a
higher likelihood of exhibiting prosocial behavior may be a better fit for an online,
undergraduate, business FYE course.
The study failed to reject all null hypotheses, showing no correlations between
faculty self-concept and degree of prosocial behavior exhibited to online business firstyear
students. The results did show a correlation between instructor self-concept (RSCQ
score) and tendency to exhibit prosocial behavior (PTM score), which is outside of the
scope of this study, but informed future research considerations discussed in Chapter 5.
