This study began as a project
of a research design course at the Georgia Institute of Technology taught by
Barry Bozeman and Hal Rainey in the spring of 2005. We are grateful to the
students of that course who assisted in survey design, background research, and
sample development.
Mary K. Feeney was responsible
for managing the survey, finalizing the survey instrument, coordinating the
development of the sample, and processing the multiple mailings. Branco
Ponomariov was responsible for developing a user-friendly database for coding
and managing the data. We are grateful to him for the time and energy he put
into this project. His planning and design reduced redundancy and problems with
tracking respondents and data collection. Julia Melkers assisted with the
acquisition of the population of Illinois public employees. She also worked with
Mary Feeney and Hal Rainey to develop the list of respondents from nonprofit and
private organizations. The survey was developed over a three month period with
review and input from Hal Rainey, Gordon Kingsley, Monica Gaughan, Eric Welch,
Julia Melkers, and Craig Boardman. Michael Ng and Sharyn Finney provided support
in developing the sample and coding data. Cristina Strizzolo managed our
undergraduate employees and the coding database. We are grateful to all those
who contributed their time, resources, and energy to NASP Omega.
