hypothesis with interaction variable from Duverger’s theory. The argument of his theory state that increasing the number of ethnic groups within a country will only to an increase in the effective number of electoral party if the electoral system is proportional or permissive. • Multivariate Regression Analysis Table~ ef{tab:example1} shows that when there are ethnic groups in a society there is a slightly increase in effective number of electoral parties in a multivariate regression model,…
SWOT ANALYSIS STRENGTH S1. Resourceful in Networking The networking defines as connecting people and leveraging potential. Currently, the Otto Group had employed around 50,000 smart employees. With this immense collective knowledge, the employees of individual group companies can connect and exchange with each other directly through Best Practice Clubs, expert conferences and workshops.

By applying Cox proportional hazards model with time-varying covariates and stratifying by race/ethnic groups, we use depressive symptom onset to predict alcohol initiation and conduct parallel analyses using alcohol initiation to predict DSO. AI and DSO related risk factors, psychiatric disorders, and traumatic events are also examined. METHODS Sample…
and 1 as Hispanic or Latino. Measures This study was intended to be an experimental design. Therefore, there were two independent variables (factors) and one dependent variable for the two social media posts. Consequently, one 2x2 between subjects analysis of variance was run for the positive social media’s posts and for the negative social media posts…
I have chosen the Japanese for my racial group analysis. I chose them for the sole reason that they are the fewest Asian group in number here in the U.S. The history of Japanese immigrants is not so different from other immigrants such as the Chinese. There are some well known stereotypes and racial slurs about the Japanese that are, in fact, quite absurd. While there aren’t many Japanese Americans, compared to other Asian groups, they still have a large impact in our society. Japan…
2.4. Data Analysis For the analysis of the quantitative data, one-way ANOVA, Chi-Square test of independence and descriptive statistics were applied. For ANOVA, in order to determine which groups caused the significant difference, Tamhane T2 test, one of the most common post hoc (multiple comparison) tests, was used. For the normal distribution of data, the skewness and kurtosis coefficients were examined. For the normality test skewness coefficient of a distribution taken in the range of -1.5…
DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Data Collection This study uses a unique dataset, which is a subset of the data that has been used by Bhansali and Zhu [12]. The dataset includes estimated IT expenditure of 329 large companies for 2005. The data was collected by phone interviews using a questionnaire designed by the research team. The questionnaire was distributed to the participants before interviews. The data was collected from approximately 600 firms; since some of these organizations are…
The main purpose of creating a SWOT analysis is to put together a framework of where exactly one excels in his/her versus where s/he needs improvement and the potential opportunities that come with all of these traits. By creating my own SWOT analysis, I was able to organize my thoughts and see clearly on paper what the exact strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats are that I possess. As we had discussed in class, strengths and weaknesses are internal characteristics that affect the…
“Regression analysis is a very effective quantitative forecasting technique for short-, medium and long-range time horizons and can be easily updated.[i]” A simple linear regression model is a mathematical relationship between two quantitative variables, i.e. X and Y. Y is the variable we seek to predict based on the other variable X, for which we have information. Regression can predict Scanim’s personnel requirements for inbound operators at varying levels of Chrysler auto sales. In…
