  1. Th e o r yML TML Tutorial Marc N. Haines mhaines@uga.edu www.theoryml.org Terry College of Business, The University of Georgia Athens, GA (USA)

  2. XML Community Theory • XML • Tags (Elements) • must close ( <A>some text</A>) • case sensitive ( <A>  <a> ) • Style Sheet • presentation is separate! • XmlStyleLanguage • tml_standard.xsl Resources Marc Haines

  3. XML Translation Theory • Document Type Definition • Basic Structure • <!ELEMENT e_name (e_type)> • <!ATTLIST e_name a_name a_type> • Optional/Mandatory Elements • <!ELEMENT e1 (m1, o1?, m2)> • Cardinality • <!ELEMENT e2 (m1+, o*, (a1 | a2)*)> Resources Marc Haines

  4. XML Translation Theory • TheoryML • Based on XML • Capture Scientific Theory • Take theory represented in an unstructured format (article) and translate it into TheoryML • Test & Extend TheoryML • Identify weaknesses of the current TheoryML and propose improvements Resources Marc Haines

  5. XML Translation Theory • Basic Elements • Constructs • Relationships • Boundary Assumptions Intention Behavior Resources Marc Haines

  6. XML Translation Theory • Basic Elements Theory Application of a Theory Constructs Hypotheses Relationships Instrument Results Resources Marc Haines

  7. XML Translation Theory • Basic Elements Theory Application of a Theory Constructs Hypotheses Relationships Instrument Results Resources Marc Haines

  8. XML Intention Behavior Translation Theory • Example: Theory of Planned Behavior (as described in Chang, M. K. (1998). Predicting Unethical Behavior: A Comparison of the Theory of Reasoned Action and the Theory of Planned Behavior. Journal of Business Ethics (17), 1825-1834.) Behavioral Beliefs and Outcome Evaluation Attitude Normative Beliefs and Motivation to Comply Subjective Norm Control Beliefs and Perceived Facilitation Perceived Control Resources Marc Haines

  9. XML Translation Theory • Resources • www.theoryml.org • XML Notepad • TheoryML templates • tml_template.xml • example and style sheet • TheoryML Document Type Definition • TheoryML Schema Resources Marc Haines

  10. XML Theory • How to translate your article into TheoryML • It’s not that easy  • Unstructured into structured • Multiple representations • No uniform graphical representation • Complex relationships Resources Translation Marc Haines

  11. XML Theory • Document Information • Element • tmlhead(id, label, description?, author+, contact, pubdate) • IDs • Theory: Tmnh000001 • Constructs: Cmnh000001 • Relationships: Rmnh000001 Resources Translation Marc Haines

  12. XML Theory • Theory • Element • theory (theohead, references?, construct, construct+, rel+) • Theory Header • Element • theohead (id, label, abbrev?, description?, key*) Resources Translation Marc Haines

  13. XML Theory • Constructs • Graphic • Boxes or Ovals • Element • construct (id, label, description?, references?) • Attributes • constype (ignore for now) Resources Translation Marc Haines

  14. XML Theory • Relationships • Graphic • Arrows • Element • construct (id, label, description?, references?, consfromlist, consto, mathformula?, rationale) • Attributes • reltype (causal, non-directional) Resources Translation Marc Haines

  15. XML Theory • Relationships • Graphic Representation A A C C + B B Two Relationships or one aggregated Relationship? Resources Translation Marc Haines

  16. XML Intention Behavior Theory • Relationships • Graphic Representation Behavioral Beliefs and Outcome Evaluation Attitude Normative Beliefs and Motivation to Comply Subjective Norm + + Control Beliefs and Perceived Facilitation Perceived Control Resources Translation Marc Haines

  17. XML Theory • Relationships • Moderators and Weights A (i.e. Fishbein) C A * W C  B B Weight Moderator Resources Translation Marc Haines

  18. XML Translation Theory • Notes • XML Notepad • All UPPER CASE! • All elements must be upper case to work with style sheet! • single line input • Browser • Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.x • Use tml_view.html to view your TheoryML doc. • You need to tell it to use your xml document! Resources Marc Haines

  19. XML Translation Theory • Notes • Feedback • TheoryML (modifications, extension, …) • TheoryML Creation Process (FAQ) • Ideas! • Questions? Resources Marc Haines
