EXECUTIVE SUMMARY



The Office of Institutional
Effectiveness (OIE) developed the
Workplace Environment Survey
(WES) in order to collect information
on the importance and satisfaction that
full-time faculty and staff members
ascribe to various aspects of their
employment at Ball State. In
consultation with faculty and staff
member working groups and the
President’s Cabinet, surveys were
developed that included items
concerning job satisfaction and the
University’s climate for diversity and
inclusion, as well as demographic
items. Some of the diversity and
inclusion items were purchased from a
consultant. Separate surveys were
developed for faculty members and
academic administrators and for staff
members (professional staff, staff
personnel, and service staff), although
many items were the same between
the two groups. OIE plans to
administer the WES every 2-3 years in
order to provide information for Ball
State’s strategic plan performance
indictors as well as general feedback
to the University community.
Among the 2,966 faculty and staff
members contacted, 2,149 responded
to the WES for a 72.5% response rate
(66.5% for faculty members and
academic administrators and 75.8%
for staff members).
Demographic Characteristics
 Females, racial/ethnic minorities, staff
members (as compared with faculty
members and academic administrators),
and employees in the less than age 52
group were slightly over-represented
among the respondents.
Overall Results
 Faculty members and academic
administrators rated nearly all items as
important.
The WES was sent by means of a link
in an email message to all full-time
faculty and staff members on
September 27, 2012. Reminders were
sent to non-respondents on October 2,
8, 11, and 15, 2012. Printed versions
of the surveys were developed and
sent to staff members in Housing and
Residence Life, Facilities Planning
and Management, and University
Dining who do not have access to a
computer in their workplace.
i

The majority of faculty members and
academic administrators were satisfied
or very satisfied with the majority of
the satisfaction items. Fewer than 50%
of faculty members and academic
administrators were satisfied or very
satisfied with 16 of the 60 items posed
to them.

Staff members rated most items as
important.

The majority of staff members were

President’s Perspective, and
colleagues as their most reliable
sources of information.
Disaggregation of Common Faculty and
Staff Job Satisfaction and Importance
Items by Demographic Characteristics
 All of the disaggregations in ratings of
importance for job satisfaction items
were either not statistically significant
or had small or very small effect sizes.

Seven of the disaggregations in ratings
of job satisfaction items had medium
or large effect sizes.

Items that were consistently positive
across all groups included perceptions
of campus safety and security and
having appropriate freedom to do
one’s job.

Other important sources of
information about news, decisions,
and changes regarding Ball State
identified by faculty members
included colleagues, President’s
Perspective and other e-mails from the
Office of the President, their
department chair/school director, their
dean, and Communications Center
email messages. Other important
sources of information identified by
staff members include colleagues,
President’s Perspective and other emails from the Office of the President,
Communications Center email
messages, the Star Press, and the
Daily News.

Email was identified as the most
popular preference for means of
information delivery by both faculty
and staff members.
Disaggregation of Job Satisfaction and
Importance Items Unique to Faculty
Members and Academic Administrators
by Demographic Characteristics
 Sixteen of the disaggregations in
ratings of importance or use for job
satisfaction items had medium or
small effect sizes.

Fifty-eight of the disaggregations in
ratings of job satisfaction items had
medium or large effect sizes. Many of
these differences were by college.
Disaggregation of Job Satisfaction and
Importance Items Unique to Staff
Members by Demographic Characteristics
 None of the disaggregations in ratings
of importance or use for job
satisfaction items had medium or
small effect sizes.

Diversity and Inclusion Items
(Faculty and Staff)
 Seventy-four percent of faculty
members and academic administrators
and 82% of staff members indicated
that within the past 3 years they had
not experienced work-related
intimidating or hostile conduct that
interferes with their ability to do their
jobs. Twelve percent of faculty
Nine of the disaggregations in ratings
of job satisfaction items had medium
or large effect sizes.
Communication Items
 Respondents were asked to identify
their one most reliable source of
information about news, decisions,
ii

members and academic administrators
and 9% of staff members said they had
seriously considered leaving Ball State
because of the institutional climate for
diversity. Among those respondents
who said they considered leaving,
most said they did so during 20112012.


Among the 20% of respondents who
indicated they experienced
intimidating or hostile conduct, the
largest portions said such conduct was
based upon “other reasons.”
Additional reasons for the conduct
offered by the respondents included
their job role, biological sex, and age.
Respondents were asked to rate the
climate for diversity, once for their
department or work unit and once for
the overall University. In both cases,
the majority of faculty and staff
members felt the climate was positive
in all categories. Particularly large
percentages of faculty and staff
members described the climate at Ball
State as friendly and improving.

respondents said they had
incorporated diversity-related material
in their classes, 32% said they
conducted diversity-related research,
and 49% indicated they engage in
diversity-related service.

BACKGROUND AND METHODOLOGY


The Office of Institutional
Effectiveness (OIE) developed the
Workplace Environment Survey
(WES) in order to collect information
on the importance and satisfaction that
full-time faculty and staff members
ascribe to various aspects of their
employment at Ball State. In
consultation with faculty and staff
member working groups and the
President’s Cabinet, surveys were
developed that included items
concerning job satisfaction and the
University’s climate for diversity and
inclusion, as well as demographic
items. Some of the diversity and
inclusion items were purchased from a
consultant. Separate surveys were
developed for faculty members and
academic administrators and for staff
members (professional staff, staff
personnel, and service staff), although
many items were the same between
the two groups. OIE plans to
administer the WES every 2-3 years in
order to provide information for Ball
State’s strategic plan performance
indictors as well as general feedback
to the University community.
The WES was sent by means of a link
in an email message to all full-time
faculty and staff members on
September 27, 2012. Reminders were
sent to non-respondents on October 2,
8, 11, and 15, 2012. Printed versions
of the surveys were developed and
sent to staff members in Housing and
Residence Life, Facilities Planning
and Management, and University
Dining who do not have access to a
computer in their workplace.


Among the 2,966 faculty and staff
members contacted, 2,149 responded
to the WES for a 72.5% response rate
(66.5% for faculty members and
academic administrators and 75.8%
for staff members).

Results were analyzed by indicating
the overall number and percentage of
each response for job satisfaction and
importance items for faculty
members/academic administrators and
staff members. Analysis of satisfaction
was carried out for only those
respondents who indicated that the
given item was important to them.
Results were disaggregated by
demographic characteristics with Chi
square tests of statistical significance.
Some demographic categories were
combined due to small sample sizes,
such as racial/ethnic groups. In order
to add meaningfulness to the
disaggregation by demographic
groups, all tables include notations of
statistical significance (at p < .05) and
effect sizes. Comparisons that were
not statistically significant were noted
with (ns) and those that were
statistically significant have their
effect sizes noted as very small (vs.),
small (s), medium (m), or large (l)
using guidelines suggested by Cohen
(1988). It is common in the field of
institutional effectiveness to draw
attention to differences with effect
sizes classified as medium or large;
these differences were commented
upon in the report.

Responses concerning communication
items were analyzed by indicating the
number and percentage of each
response and reported in summary
tables.

Results for the multiple-choice
diversity and inclusion items were
analyzed by indicating the overall
number and percentage of each
response for faculty members/
academic administrators and staff
members collectively.

2
Responses to the “other” options of
the diversity and inclusion items were
reviewed and categorized into
summary tables.
DEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS


Females, racial/ethnic minorities, staff
members (as compared with faculty
members and academic administrators),
and employees in the less than age 52
group were slightly over-represented
among the respondents. (Table 1)

DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION ITEMS
(FACULTY AND STAFF)




Seventy-four percent of faculty members
and academic administrators and 82% of
staff members indicated that within the
past 3 years they did not experience workrelated intimidating or hostile conduct that
interferes with their ability to do their jobs.
Twelve percent of faculty members and
academic administrators and 9% of staff
members said they had seriously
considered leaving Ball State because of
the institutional climate for diversity.
Among those respondents who said they
considered leaving, most said they did so
during 2011-2012. (Table 90)
Among the 20% of respondents who
indicated they experienced intimidating
or hostile conduct, the largest portions
said such conduct was based upon other
reasons (which are listed in Table 92),
their job role, biological sex, and age as
shown in Table 91.
Among those who experienced such
