Explaining School Cohesion: What Shapes the Organization Beliefs of Teachers?
Fuller, Bruce; Izu, Jo Ann
American Journal of Education, v94 n4 p501-35 Aug 1986

Examines the influence of environmental and internal school factors on convergence and explores which conditions increase that influence, including reliance on central government. (ETS)
