Subclaims¶

q3 i? School-level general climate negatively moderated the effect of strategic climate on Appeal (b = −0.59) and Divergence (b = −0.41), and the interaction significantly improved model fit (change in −2 log-likelihood = 12.50). → Zhang 2023 q3 i? In schools with moderate or low general climate, higher strategic climate showed a strong positive association with Appeal and Divergence, but in schools with high general climate the association was much weaker (nearly flat slopes). → Zhang 2023 (2)

q3 · i? · associational · r3

Interaction terms entered into the level-2 equations of the climate MLMs on 441 implementers in 52 schools; the results report that "general climate negatively moderated the effect of strategic climate on Appeal (b = − 0.59) and Divergence (b = − 0.41)", with a deviance change of 12.50 indicating improved fit.

"Specifically, at the organizational level, general climate negatively moderated the effect of strategic climate on Appeal (b = − 0.59) and Divergence (b = − 0.41; Table 7)."

Simple slope plots (Figs. 2, 3) with estimated marginal means depicted the interaction; in schools with "moderate or low levels of general climate, higher levels of strategic climate showed a strong positive association with higher levels of Appeal and Divergence", while the association was much weaker at high general climate.

"But in the schools with high levels of general climate, high levels of stra- tegic climate showed a much weaker positive association with Appeal and Divergence (i.e., nearly flatted slopes in Figs. 2, 3)."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Implementers within the same school share similar attitudes toward EBPs, with intra-class correlations of 0.06 to 0.13 across four attitudinal dimensions — related
• At the organizational level, strategic leadership and climate, but not their general counterparts, are associated with implementer attitudes toward EBPs — related
• At the individual level, both general and strategic leadership and climate are associated with Requirement and Openness attitudes, but only general factors with Appeal and Divergence — related
