Resident Assistant Workplace Motivation
the RAs' desire to exert control or power over
others or have other students admire them.
This score was remarkably lower than that for
personal growth, at 3.30. The lowest score for a
question was in factor 3 (desire for power) and
was related to the ability to exercise power over
others as a reason to apply for the RA position.
Motivational Factors and Demographic
and Work Environment Characteristics
In terms of significant differences in the motivational factors of current resident assistants
based on their demographic and work environment characteristics, no significance was
found. See Table 3.
For gender and race/ethnicity, the standard
for interpretation of the F test from Box's M
statistic is p < .001. Freedman, Pisani, and
Purves (2011) advise using p < .001 as the
criterion of significance to determine that
the covariance matrices are unequal. Box's
M was equal to 283.97 and was significant at
F(147, 4832.501) = 1.538, p < 0.0001, which
means that the covariance matrices are unequal
and this assumption has been violated. To
combat the violation in the data, Pillai's Trace
can be reported instead of Wilk's Lambda. The
MANOVA was not significant on gender at Pillai's Trace = .013, F(6, 209) = 0.457, p = 0.839;
race at Pillai's Trace = .101, F(24, 848) = .911,
p = 0.588; and gender by race at Pillai's Trace =
.072, F(18, 633) = .871, p = .615.
For work environment characteristics,
the assumption of multivariate normality
was met in that the six motivational factor
variables distributed normally across each of
the five independent variables based on nonsignificant Shapiro Wilks scores for all combinations. There was no multicollinearity found
among the five independent variables. The
F test from Box's M statistic uses p < .001
as the criterion for testing to see if covariance matrices are equal. Box's M was
equal to 73.324 and was not significant at
F(42, 1307.027) = 1.065, p = 0.361. The assumption was met in that the covariance
matrices are equal. The F test from Box's M
