Influence Of Group Dynamics Factors On Technology Transfer Effectiveness Among Members And Non-Members Of Soybean Grower Groups In Chiangmai, Thailand

The purpose of this study was to determine whether or not the group dynamics factors adapted from selected group behaviour models influence the technology transfer effectiveness (TTE) of the soybean grower group (SOG) farmers and non-soybean grower group (non-SOG) farmers. The correlational stud...
