Download or read book Recent Developments on Structural Equation Models written by Kees van Montfort and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-04-30 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After Karl Jöreskog's first presentation in 1970, Structural Equation Modelling or SEM has become a main statistical tool in many fields of science. It is the standard approach of factor analytic and causal modelling in such diverse fields as sociology, education, psychology, economics, management and medical sciences. In addition to an extension of its application area, Structural Equation Modelling also features a continual renewal and extension of its theoretical background. The sixteen contributions to this book, written by experts from many countries, present important new developments and interesting applications in Structural Equation Modelling. The book addresses methodologists and statisticians professionally dealing with Structural Equation Modelling to enhance their knowledge of the type of models covered and the technical problems involved in their formulation. In addition, the book offers applied researchers new ideas about the use of Structural Equation Modeling in solving their problems. Finally, methodologists, mathematicians and applied researchers alike are addressed, who simply want to update their knowledge of recent approaches in data analysis and mathematical modelling.
Download or read book Siege of Fate written by Wilson Ohwedor and published by Wilson Ohwedor. This book was released on 2018-08-10 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever seen someone facing a slow death and yet you can do nothing? Or the trade-off is so high its better to die? Enitan and Ikudoro face this plight in Wilson's terrifying novel 'Siege of Fate: A Sci-Fi Dystopia'. In a near-future Africa, superstitions have become medical facts. Ikudoro is dying and even the best doctors cannot salvage her. Dr. Jason Crane comes up with a bizarre solution. The doctor claims he can upload a dying person’s mind into a durable, healthy robotic body thus keeping her alive. Catch is the doctor won't explain how the process works. Additionally, Ikudoro must die a horrible death for the transformation to occur. That is, she must be mutilated and devoured by a series of automated spinning blades and interlocking teeth before her consciousness can be uploaded into the robot! What will Enitan and Ikudoro eventually do? Siege of Fate is playfully serious, dancing naked with thick darkness while relentlessly satirizing pseudoscience and faith-based medicine. It will make you laugh at its absurdity, and leave you wondering about the location of your own consciousness. "In Siege of fate, Wilson writes intelligently and beautifully of post apocalypse, love, hermaphrodites, and robots. It is thought-provoking, perfectly paced, uniformly delightful, compassionate. Wilson has remarkable gifts." -Helon Habila ( Award winner of Caine prize for African writing) "This is one of the quirkiest and engaging stories that I have ever read in a long time." -Lily Lamb, Amazon best-seller of Nameless.

Download or read book The Car Show written by Nicolae Sfetcu and published by Nicolae Sfetcu. This book was released on 2014-04-27 with total page 647 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This e-book details the most interesting and important characteristics of the automobiles, car maintenance, styling features, car body style, the standard classification of the cars, an history of the automobiles, introduction in the automotive industry, and the traffic code, rules and signs. An automobile, usually called a car (an old word for carriage) or a truck, is a wheeled vehicle that carries its own engine. Older terms include horseless carriage and motor car, with “motor” referring to what is now usually called the engine. It has seats for the driver and, almost without exception, for at least one passenger. The automobile was hailed as an environmental improvement over horses when it was first introduced. Before its introduction, in New York City, over 10,000 tons of manure had to be removed from the streets daily. However, in 2006 the automobile is one of the primary sources of worldwide air pollution and cause of substantial noise and health effects.
Download or read book Location Behaviour and Relationship Stability in International Business Networks written by Bart Kamp and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-12-05 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book investigates how the relationships of international business networks (one buyer-multiple suppliers) develop over time, looking at the geographical angle as well as an actor composition point of view. Bart Kamp presents a framework that reveals what business-to-business (b2b) factors explain buyer-supplier co-location patterns, making it possible to predict the geographical behaviour of suppliers, and also assesses whether longevity is truly the deep-rooted feature of international b2b network relationships that it is often claimed to be.
Download or read book Stankevicius MGM Research Public Relations in Global Business How to manage and influence investor relations with PR and media in the current economy written by Paulius Stankevicius and published by Paulius Stankevicius. This book was released on 2019-08-10 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investor relations is a subject which has been seriously taken into consideration by many companies and is an important matter nowadays. Considering that the company’s survival depends on capital, managing investors the right way is management’s obligation to the company, and it’s stakeholders, in order to keep the business in continuous growth and profitability. Public relations, on the other hand, is a subject of people. Consider that people and their relationships build businesses, this research will examine the in-depth correlation between public relations and investor relations. Managing people and communicating with them is the big picture of the company’s activities, but what kind of layers are behind those activities is what this research tries to uncover. Additionally, this research has a new approach towards media relations as media can be used as a channel to connect to people and spread information. Media is also an activity which falls under public relations. Media has a strong influence over people, and media can be used not just to create but also to manipulate and destroy. The goal of this research is to provide in-depth information about how public relations and media can be used to manage and influence global audiences, including consumers and clients, and most importantly, investors. What happens when companies manipulate the public, what happens when companies tell the truth, how the stock market and investors react to the news, what companies can do to create a powerful brand quickly and how external factors influence investors’ decisions. Many examples and scenarios are covered in this research to understand the power of public relations and media, and the influence that these two hold towards investors and the global economy. Literature review methodology was applied to this research, including various literature review types. Also, an additional qualitative method was also used in this research by conducting several interviews and taking comments from industry experts. This research is meant for business executives and marketing professionals to understand and learn about new possibilities when it comes to building a brand and gaining a certain level of power over audiences and global markets.
Download or read book Brexit as a Social and Political Crisis written by Franco Zappettini and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-12 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through a focus on media and political discourses both before and after the UK 2016 EU Referendum, this volume provides a set of comprehensive, empirically based analyses of Brexit as a social and political crisis. The book explores a variety of context-dependent, ideologically driven, social, political, and economic imaginaries that have been attached to the idea/concept of Brexit in the UK and internationally. The volume’s wider contribution has three dimensions. First, it provides evidence of how the Brexit referendum debate and its immediate reactions were discursively framed and made sense of by a variety of social and political actors and through different media. Second, the contributors show how such discourses were reflexive of the wider path-dependent historical and political processes which have been instrumental in pre-defining the key pathways along which Brexit has been articulated. Third, the book identifies key patterns of national and international framing in order to discover the key, recurrent discursive trajectories in the ongoing process of Brexit – including after UK’s formal departure from the EU in January 2020 – while putting forward an agenda for its further, in depth and systematic analysis in, in particular, politics and the media. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Critical Discourse Studies.
Download or read book Organizational Cultures of Remembrance written by Daniel Mai and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a business world predominantly oriented toward the future, it has paradoxically become ever more common that companies turn towards their pasts. This book empirically explores the phenomenon of organizational remembrance from a holistic cultural perspective. Based on a twelve-month ethnographic case study conducted at the headquarters of the German automobile company, AUDI AG, this study dissects the relationships between memory, identity, and image in a corporate setting. The greater aim in doing so is twofold: First, this study examines exactly why and how a company officially manages its past in terms of ‘history’ and ‘tradition.’ And second, this study scrutinizes what effect organizational remembrance has on the workforce – how it impacts their collective identification with a corporate community and influences their understanding of their daily working life. By investigating the interplay between different stakeholder groups, as well as their practices, media, mental models, and other vehicles of remembrance, an integrated account is offered which makes sense of the complex cultural forces at work in the corporate handling of the past, the present, and the future.
Download or read book Automotive FDI in Emerging Europe written by A. J. Jacobs and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-06-19 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the dramatic increase in automotive assembly plants in the former Socialist Central European (CE) nations of Czechia, East Germany, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia from 1989 onwards. Enticed by relatively lower-wage labour and significant government incentives, the world’s largest automakers have launched more than 20 passenger car assembly complexes in CE nations, with production accelerating dramatically since 2001. As a result, the annual passenger car production in Western Europe declined by more than 20% between 2001 and 2015, and alternatively in the CEE it increased by nearly 170% during this period. Drawing on case studies of 25 current and former foreign-run assembly plants, the author presents a rare historical account of automotive foreign assembly plants in the CE following this dramatic geographic shift. This book will expand the knowledge of policy-makers in Europe in relation to their pursuits of FDI and will be of great interest to scholars and students of business, economic history, political science, and development.

Download or read book The Logic of Information written by Luciano Floridi and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Luciano Floridi presents an innovative approach to philosophy, conceived as conceptual design. He explores how we make, transform, refine, and improve the objects of our knowledge. His starting point is that reality provides the data, to be understood as constraining affordances, and we transform them into information, like semantic engines. Such transformation or repurposing is not equivalent to portraying, or picturing, or photographing, or photocopying anything. It is more like cooking: the dish does not represent the ingredients, it uses them to make something else out of them, yet the reality of the dish and its properties hugely depend on the reality and the properties of the ingredients. Models are not representations understood as pictures, but interpretations understood as data elaborations, of systems. Thus, Luciano Floridi articulates and defends the thesis that knowledge is design and philosophy is the ultimate form of conceptual design. Although entirely independent of Floridi's previous books, The Philosophy of Information (OUP 2011) and The Ethics of Information (OUP 2013), The Logic of Information both complements the existing volumes and presents new work on the foundations of the philosophy of information.
