ndltd-OhioLink-oai-etd.ohiolink.edu-osu11757050002021-08-03T05:52:04Z Type, knowing style and gender through the experience of Asian international students in the US Williams, Benjamin M. <p>The purpose of this study was two-fold: first, to determine the relationships among gender, knowing styles and psychological type for Asian international students. In Women Ways of Knowing (1986), Belenky and colleagues assumed that separate and connected knowing styles have their origin in differential gender conditioning. The thinking and feeling dimension of Jung's theory of psychological type (1921) logically seems similar to the separate and connected knowing styles. In two previous studies, Rodgers and colleagues (1998; 2000) and Ullman-Petrash (2000) found evidence that psychological type was more associated with knowing style than with gender. Hence, this study asked is gender or psychological type more associated with knowing style preferences for Asian international students? The second purpose asked how Asian international students constructed their own and the others knowing style?</p> <p>Twenty-five Asian international students from the People's Republic of China, Taiwan, Korea and Japan were either given the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Form M and a workshop on psychological type, or the instrument only, then they participated in an interview to determine knowing style. Thinking and feeling was determined by either the participants' selection of their "true type” or on the instrument type. Two independent raters determined the knowing style of each student. Because of the small sample size, however, the quantitative hypotheses could not be addressed; nonetheless, the qualitative results were rich.</p> <p>The results support the existence of knowing styles regardless of gender. However, cultural conditioning strongly affects the expression of external behavior. For this sample, external behavior was more connected in style, even though separate knowers internally were thinking of the contrary. Women separate knowers struggled the most for a voice in opposition to their cultural socialization.</p> 2000 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1175705000 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1175705000 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
