THE “AUSTRALIAN” O.C.D.Q.: A DECADE LATER

Abstract

In an article titled “The O.C.D.Q.: A Four Factor Solution for Australian Schools?” in an earlier volume of this journal, Thomas and Slater reported a study conducted in 72 primary schools in South Australia in 1970. They identified four factors, rather than the eight identified by the American designers of this prolifically and internationally used test of school organizational climate. The current article reports on a similar study in N.S.W. primary schools over a decade later, and concludes that the “Australian” O.C.D.Q. is “holding” its four factor structure.
