Abstract

Transfer beliefs are understudied in the training transfer field, whereas structural equation modelling (SEM) has been a widely used technique to study transfer models. New methodologies are needed to study training transfer and network analysis (NA) has emerged as a new approach that provides a visual representation of a given network. We explored the relation of transfer beliefs, intentions, commitment, and implementation intentions, and transfer using variable (SEM) and person-oriented approaches (NA) according to groups of trainees based on their transfer readiness. The longitudinal design measured T1 before the training and T2 after the training (268 participants). T1 measured trainees' beliefs about transfer, commitment to transfer, and intention to transfer; T2 measured self-reported transfer and implementation intention actions. The results of the NA confirmed the structure of the exploratory factor analysis. The NA model offered the visual representation of the network complimentary to the results obtained via SEM. Differentiating NA and SEM multigroup by cluster showed differences in models and architectures between clusters. We discussed the relations between beliefs and transfer, and also the implications of the combined use of the SEM and NA as novel approaches to study transfer.

受训者迁移信念、意图和承诺对迁移准备的影响：变量和面向个人的分析

迁移信念在训练迁移领域的研究尚不充分，而结构方程模型（SEM）是研究迁移模型的一种广泛使用的技术。研究训练迁移需要新的方法，而网络分析（NA）作为一种提供给定网络的可视化表示的新方法已经出现。我们根据学员的迁移准备程度，采用变量方法（SEM）和以人为本的方法（NA）探讨了迁移信念、意图、承诺和实施意图与迁移之间的关系。纵向设计测量训练前T1和训练后T2（268名参与者）。T1测量受训者对迁移的信念、迁移承诺和迁移意图；T2测量自我报告的转移和实施意图行动。NA的结果证实了探索性因子分析的结构。NA模型提供了网络的视觉表示，与通过扫描电镜获得的结果互补。通过聚类来区分NA和SEM多组，显示了聚类之间模型和架构的差异。我们讨论了信念与迁移之间的关系，以及结合使用SEM和NA作为研究迁移的新方法的意义。

期刊介绍： Increasing international competition has led governments and corporations to focus on ways of improving national and corporate economic performance. The effective use of human resources is seen as a prerequisite, and the training and development of employees as paramount. The growth of training and development as an academic subject reflects its growth in practice. The International Journal of Training and Development is an international forum for the reporting of high-quality, original, empirical research. Multidisciplinary, international and comparative, the journal publishes research which ranges from the theoretical, conceptual and methodological to more policy-oriented types of work. The scope of the Journal is training and development, broadly defined. This includes: The determinants of training specifying and testing the explanatory variables which may be related to training identifying and analysing specific factors which give rise to a need for training and development as well as the processes by which those needs become defined, for example, training needs analysis the need for performance improvement the training and development implications of various performance improvement techniques, such as appraisal and assessment the analysis of competence Training and development practice the design, development and delivery of training the learning and development process itself competency-based approaches evaluation: the relationship between training and individual, corporate and macroeconomic performance Policy and strategy organisational aspects of training and development public policy issues questions of infrastructure issues relating to the training and development profession The Journal’s scope encompasses both corporate and public policy analysis. International and comparative work is particularly welcome, as is research which embraces emerging issues and developments.
