Thanks Rick! Very interesting that you were giving me official approval for a post on academic freedom! But that's okay. I too have problems at times with bounded rationality!        ______________________________________________ Roderick D.

I am away from home at a conference and I noticed Rod's note and thought it was a message to Psychteacher which I moderate. It doesn't look anything like the messages I receive for approval but I am evidently so scatterbrained at this point that I sent it back as if I was approving it for Psychteacher. Oops. I believe this is the first time that this has happened. I guess it is just a sign of my bounded rationality (a philosopher at this conference noted that that is a scientific euphemism evolutionary psychologist use to refer to stupidity). At least everyone can rest assured knowing that Rod's message has been approved for your reading pleasure.   Rick   Rick Froman Associate Professor of Psychology John Brown University Siloam Springs, AR  72761 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Rick Froman Sent: Thu 5/27/2004 11:22 AM To: Teaching in the Psychological Sciences Cc: Subject: RE: reseach on academic freedom ok -----Original Message----- From: Hetzel, Rod [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thu 5/27/2004 8:58 AM To: Teaching in the Psychological Sciences Cc: Subject: reseach on academic freedom Hi everyone: I'm thinking about starting a research project in the fall investigating academic freedom. One idea I've been thinking about would be to survey faculty perceptions of academic freedom at their universities. Another possibility has been to conduct a content analysis of academic freedom policy statements from a sample of universities. Not sure if I would limit this to psychology faculty vs. other faculty, state schools vs. faith-based schools, Research I universities vs. others, etc. I'm still in the planning stages at this point, but I have had difficulty locating previous research on academic freedom. Does anyone on this list know of any research (survey or otherwise) that has investigated academic freedom? I'm not coming up with much on PsycInfo. Thanks in advance!
