Declarations

:

: Following the World Medical Association Helsinki declaration and the minimal risk nature of the study, no ethical board approval was required.

: Before completing the questionnaire, one research team member read to the participants the following standard procedure to fill in the questionnaire (i.e., informed consent, data anonymity, etc.).<i>This questionnaire was designed and reviewed by Keith Trigwell, Michael Prosser and Paul Ginns (2005) in order to explore a dimension of the way that academics go about teaching in a specific context or subject or course. This may mean that your responses to these items in one context may be different to the responses you might make on your teaching in other contexts or subjects. Therefore, please describe briefly the context to which you referred in your answers. It is important that the discipline you are thinking of to be one of the taught disciplines in this semester, a discipline you taught it in the previous year too and, as much as possible, be the discipline you have been teaching for the longest time.</i><i>For each item please circle one of the numbers (1–5). The numbers stand for the following responses:</i><i>1. this item was only rarely or never true for me in this subject.</i><i>2. this item was sometimes true for me in this subject.</i><i>3. this item was true for me about half the time in this subject.</i><i>4. this item was frequently true for me in this subject.</i><i>5. this item was almost always or always true for me in this subject.</i><i>Please answer each item. Do not spend a long time on each: your first reaction is probably the best one. Do not worry about presenting a favorable self-image. Your answers are CONFIDENTIAL.</i><i>Thank you for your cooperation.</i>
