These attributes were also important infresh produce selection. Organic produce preference was related to both environmental and personal-safety concerns. More than half of these consumers had purchased organic produce within the last year; supermarkets and direct markets were the primary sources. Although organic produce was not purchased exclusively, previous purchase increased the likelihood offuture purchase. A certification process was desired.

For each explanatory variable in the model, significance of expenditure differences between family structures was tested. Magnitudes and significance of effects by family structure differed, and significance of the difference between the values obtained for each family type also varied between explanatory variables.

Csikszentmihalyi was examined among child-care employees. Flow was defined as the difference between raters' perceptions of the challenges presented by child-care employment and their self-reported skills for the job. Teachers (N = 189) of 4-year-olds rated their perceived skills and challenges on 10 activities that typically occur during a day at a child-care center. Multivariate analysis of variance with repeated measures indicated no significant effect on Flow due to the amount of child-care training, the number of years of preschool teaching experience, or the interaction between Education and Experience. The flow variable, which is a direct comparison of perceived skills and challenges, was significant. Post hoc analysis indicated that mean ratings on skills were significantly higher than the mean ratings on challenges on all 10 teaching activities. According to flow theory, then, these teachers would be expected to experience boredom rather than flow in work. The results suggest that teacher education programs might focus on enabling caregivers to recognize challenges inherent in routine caregiving or to create challenges to make the work experience more enjoyable.</p>","PeriodicalId":100610,"journal":{"name":"Home Economics Research Journal","volume":"22 1","pages":"83-91"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/004677749302200104","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65209283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using data from 1983 and 1986 Surveys of Consumer Finances, estimates of stock adjustment models indicate that all families at low-, middle-, and high-income level adjusted their savings from real stocks to desirable stocks fastest in ACCT3 and slowest in ACCT1. In the middle-income sample, results showed that savings in ACCT1 at the end of the previous period had the largest negative influence on changes in ACCT2 and ACCT3, and savings in ACCT3 had the least influence on changes in the other two accounts, over one period of time.
