Development of Self-control Model for Hotel Management Students in Dual Vocational Training Program in the Northeastern Industrial and Community Education Colleges : a Quadratic Latent Growth Curve Mode

Abstract

This research aimed to; develop, implement, and evaluate the development of self-control model for hotel management students in dual vocational training program, in the Northeastern industrial and community education colleges. A research and This research aimed to; develop, implement, and evaluate the development of self-control model for hotel management students in dual vocational training program, in the Northeastern industrial and community education colleges. A research and development design was employed to conduct all activities. The sample consisted of 47 students in experimental group and 47 students in control group. A confirmatory factor analysis and a quadratics latent growth curve model were used to analyzed the data by using Mplus computer program. 

The findings indicated:

1. The self-control model for hotel management students consisted of 5 approaches as operation approach, stimulus approach, emotional approach, interpersonal approach, and ethic approach. 

2. All approaches of the experimental group significantly increased more than in control group. 

3. Quadratics latent growth curve model was harmonizely fitted with empirical data.
