| Description | This research examined the effect of organizational and resource dependence factors on college and university administrators' interpretation of an objectively verifiable environmental change: the decline in the number of 18–22-year-olds in the United States. Results indicated that these characteristics significantly affected the interpretation of changing demographics but explained relatively little variance in administrators' certainty about how to respond to a changed environment. The research suggests that examining the interpretation of specific environmental changes may be a useful way of gaining insight into the factors that influence the environmental interpretation process. |
