Statistical Models for the Social and Behavioral Sciences: Multiple Regression and Limited-Dependent Variable Models
ISBN: 9780275953164 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Multiple regression analysis has been widely used by researchers to analyze complex social problems since the 1950s. A specialization in economics, known as econometrics, developed out of a recognition that multiple regression is based upon a large number of assumptions--many of which are commonly violated in specific applications.

The legacy's dominant feature was the sharecropper-tenant farmer system, which replaced slavery. Sharecropping was the foundation of southern poverty. Sharecropping's collapse,...

ISBN: 9780865690080 / Angielski / Twarda / 1990 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book examines claims that aging populations will create serious economic problems for various nations. It examines the question in large part through the eyes of researchers and legislators in three target countries: Australia, Japan, and the United States. These countries were chosen because of similar states of economic development and because all were experiencing a rapid aging of their populations. A comprehensive overview is provided of the economic issues related to aging populations. Several aspects are explored in more depth. To date, it is the most complete and thorough study...
