Applied Choice Analysis

A Primer

By: David A. Hensher,John M. Rose,William H. Greene

Almost without exception, everything human beings undertake involves a choice. In recent years there has been a growing interest in the development and application of quantitative statistical methods to study choices made by individuals with the purpose of gaining a better understanding both of how choices are made and of forecasting future choice responses. In this primer the authors provide an unintimidating introduction to the main techniques of choice analysis and include detail on themes such as data collection and preparation, model estimation and interpretation and the design of choice experiments. A companion website to the book provides practice data sets and software to estimate the main discrete choice models such as multinomial logit, nested logit and mixed logit. This primer will be an invaluable resource to students as well as of immense value to consultants and professionals, researchers and anyone else interested in choice analysis and modelling.

A voice is much more than just a string of words. Voices, unlike fingerprints, are inherently complex. They signal a great deal of information in addition to the intended message: the speakers' sex, for example, or their emotional state, or age. Although evidence from DNA analysis grabs the headlines, DNA can't talk. It can't be recorded planning,

Methuselah Flies

A Case Study in the Evolution of Aging

By: Michael Robertson Rose,Hardip Brar Passananti,Margarida Matos

Methuselah Flies presents a trailblazing project on the biology of aging. It describes research on the first organisms to have their lifespan increased, and their aging slowed, by hereditary manipulation. These organisms are fruit flies from the species Drosophila melanogaster, the great workhorse of genetics. Michael Rose and his colleagues have been able to double the lifespan of these insects, and improved their health in numerous respects as well. The study of these flies with postponed aging is one of the best means we have of understanding, and ultimately achieving, the postponement of aging in humans. As such, the carefully presented detail of this book will be of value to research devoted to the understanding and control of aging.Methuselah Flies: ? is a tightly edited distillation of twenty years of work by many scientists? contains the original publications regarding the longer-lived fruit flies? offers commentaries on each of the topics covered ? new, short essays that put the individual research papers in a wider context? gives full access to the original data ? captures the scientific significance of postponed aging for a wide academic audienc

Management Research

Applying the Principles

By: Susan Rose,Nigel Spinks,Ana Isabel Canhoto

For many post-graduate students undertaking a research project for the first time is a daunting prospect. Gaining the knowledge and skills needed to do research typically has to be done alongside carrying out the project itself. Students often have to conduct their research independently, perhaps with limited tutor contact. What is needed in such situations is a resource that supports the new researcher on every step of the research journey, from defining the project to communicating its findings. Management Research: Applying the Principles provides just such a resource. Structured around the key stages of a research project, it is designed to provide answers to the questions faced by new researchers but without neglecting the underlying principles of good research. Each chapter includes ‘next steps’ activities to help readers apply the content to their own live research project. The companion website provides extensive resources, including video tutorials, to support the development of practical research skills. The text reflects the richness and variety of current business and management research both in its presentation of methods and techniques and its choice of examples drawn from different subject disciplines, industries and organizations. Management Research: Applying the Principles combines diversity of coverage with a singularity of purpose: to help students complete their research project to a rigorous standard.

SOCIAL PROBABILITY THEORY, HISTORICAL AND NATURAL OBSERVATIONS:

SOCIAL PROBABILITY THEORY, HISTORICAL AND NATURAL OBSERVATIONS:

Know the Past to Understand the Present and to Predict the Future!

By: Dr. Rose Sabina Griffith Hunte

The social probability theories, and historical & natural observations contained in this book were developed over many years and others are based on observations and current events in history. I have also included two new products I discovered while living in my native country of Saint Lucia. Additionally, I review the world, its beauty, and its history. Humanity has reached a milestone. While in Saint Lucia, I noted several alien sightings and have shared my observations of these sightings through this book. I reviewed many natural and historical observations, have looked at the world, and saw the wonder it contains. The reader will see references to “Mind Probe technology”. This technology is used by governments with the technology to conduct systematic checks on people of interest. I became aware of the technology while living in Saint Lucia because of the alien sightings, I witnessed and the conclusions I drew from those sightings. It is imperative that, as a society, we do not perceive these alien visitors as a threat. It is my summation that they can be the harbingers of great technology and enhanced medical care that will benefit humanity. I hope that with the writing of this book, the scientific community and committee that discusses these phenomena will welcome me as a member because I believe I can contribute greatly to their investigation of the alien presence that I surmise have been visiting earth for thousands if not millions of years.

Union Solidarity

The Internal Cohesion of a Labor Union

By: Arnold M. Rose

Union Solidarity was first published in 1952. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. A realistic knowledge of basic attitudes held by labor union members is essential to all who are concerned with social and industrial relations. Labor leaders, employers, public relations counselors, sociologists, and psychologists will find this book useful because it demonstrates how to obtain and evaluate authentic data regarding the factors which contribute to or detract from the solidarity which is manifested by organized workers. As a systematic study of the way in which a worker relates himself to his union, based upon the measurement of workers reactions, Dr. Rose's report presents a new type of research in industrial sociology. This socio-psychological study of the membership of a large union local throws light on such fundamental questions as how union members feel toward their leaders, what the members' attitudes toward their fellow unionists are, and to what extent loyalty to a union affects loyalty to an employer. For his significant study, Dr. Rose chose the membership of Teamsters Local 688, the largest union local in St. Louis, as his subject. The study had the complete backing of the union. A survey of other available studies shows that the attitudes and problems examined are characteristic of the great majority of unions and their members. Important findings of the study reveal how union leaders can educate their members toward specific viewpoints, what kinds of union activity and achievement are most responsible for a union's internal strength, and how criticism of a union on the part of its members can be compatible with basic loyalty to the union.

Metaracism

How Systemic Racism Devastates Black Lives—and How We Break Free

By: Tricia Rose

The definitive book on how systemic racism in America really works, revealing the vast and often hidden network of interconnected policies, practices, and beliefs that combine to devastate Black lives In recent years, condemnations of racism in America have echoed from the streets to corporate boardrooms. At the same time, politicians and commentators fiercely debate racism’s very existence. And so, our conversations about racial inequalities remain muddled. In Metaracism, pioneering scholar Tricia Rose cuts through the noise with a bracing and invaluable new account of what systemic racism actually is, how it works, and how we can fight back. She reveals how—from housing to education to criminal justice—an array of policies and practices connect and interact to produce an even more devastating “metaracism” far worse than the sum of its parts. While these systemic connections can be difficult to see—and are often portrayed as “color-blind”—again and again they function to disproportionately contain, exploit, and punish Black people. By helping us to comprehend systemic racism’s inner workings and destructive impacts, Metaracism shows us also how to break free—and how to create a more just America for us all.

Tales of a Woman's Struggle

By: Josephine Rose Newton

Tales of a Woman's Struggle - Josephine Rose Newton Trials and tribulations come in all shapes and sizes. Whether you are dealing with unexpected pregnancy, divorce of the death of a family member, you will find solace in Josephine Rose Newton's book Tales of a Woman's Struggle. Her fabulous characters are well-crafted and really speak to the distresses women encounter in their lives. Women face unique struggles with which men do not relate. While men feel pain during divorces or the deaths of loved ones, they cannot understand exactly what women are going through in similar situations. Newton's short stories are touching and every woman can find a little of herself in each character. The characters are like ourselves, our mothers, our aunts and our best friends - each calling out for understanding and empathy. Newton's writing style is easy to read, which makes it easy to open the heart. You may be a "Nora" who has been faithful her entire life, but is crippled by loss. You could be a "Jill" who seems to face multiple trials and is unable to see where her life will lead. You may even be a "Lily" who always thought her life would be something that never panned out. Each character has her faith tested in different ways, but in the end finds her strength in her walk with God. Faith is tried over and over again, when we think we are finally through, we find there is another test waiting for us. No matter what test of faith you are experiencing, in Tales of a Woman's Struggle, you will find one of these artfully crafted characters with whom you can identify. We women understand how important it is to be strong for our families and Newton's book is the perfect place to strengthen and recharge your faith. Whether you read the book to energize your own faith or give it to a woman you love, you will not be disappointed by Newton's short story collection. Todd Rutherford AskthePublishingGuru.com

Three Little Girls

By: Dasie Rose Aster

Blessed with three beautiful daughters, the Christmas family thinks everything is normal until their middle daughter begins acting different than other children her age. As Katy grows older, her sisters, Hope and Babie, begin to notice the differences too. As she grows older, Katy's actions earn her a nickname from her sister: Crazy. As Katy's sisters watch helplessly, she blames others for her actions and fools her parents into believing in her self-proclaimed innocence. But when she enters fifth grade and is introduced to alcohol, the trouble truly begins. While she continually breaks rules and pushes the boundaries without her parents' knowledge, Hope witnesses the impact of her actions and soon transforms her bitterness into revenge. As Babie ventures outside the norms of society and Crazy follows a dark path, it seems that no one in the Christmas family knows what normal is anymore. In this compelling tale, a family is unwittingly immersed into a bottomless pit of enabling as one of them battles her internal demons and tries to convince everyone around her she is not as crazy as she seems.

Children, Teens, Families, and Mass Media

The Millennial Generation

By: Rose M. Kundanis

This text provides a survey of the relationship between children and those mass media found in the home--radio, television, and the Internet. Using a theory-based approach, with attention to developmental, gender, ethnic, and generational differences, author Rose M. Kundanis explores the nature of these relationships and their influences on children and families, looking at the experiences children have at various developmental ages and across generations. She reviews children's own experiences with media and examines the variety of effects that can operate due to children's perceptions at different ages, including fear, aggression, and sexuality. The text includes theory and research from mass communication, developmental psychology, education, and other areas, representing the broad spectrum of influences at work. Features of this text include: *side-bar interviews with teens who work in media and people who develop policy or programming for children's media; *in-depth explanations of the Generational Theory and the Developmental Theory as they apply to children and the media, plus a survey of other applicable theories; *description of the key points of the Children's Television Act of 1990, the Telecommunications Act of 1996, and other relevant legislation; and *questions and activities to extend the exploration of topics. This text will help students develop a critical understanding of the relationship of children and the media; the variables affecting and influencing children's response to media; the theories that explain and predict this relationship; and the ways in which children use the media and can develop media literacy. It is appropriate for courses at the advanced undergraduate and graduate level, including children and media, media literacy, mass communication and society, and media processes and effects, as well as special topics courses in education, communication, and psychology.
