This study gathered data about hospitality educators' attitudes about and estimated involvement in 30 academic behaviors. Data were obtained through a mailed questionnaire sent to a national sampling of 797 hospitality educators.

On the basis of varying respondent demographics, the analysis also reveals differences in behaviors.
