Changes in human relations attitudes

Abstract

A preliminary form of the Attitudes Test in Human Relations (ATHURE) was studied. Classes of cadets were administered ATHURE before and after a human relations seminar. Officers of the Command and Staff School class were rated on the Officer Behavior Description, and those in the top 27% on the OBD were used as a criterion group for the ATHURE. As a result of an item analysis, "the findings indicate that there were sufficient attitude changes in the direction of the criterion group to warrant confidence in the seminar's effectiveness in changing human relations attitudes."
