Innovation Complexity and the Sequence of Innovating Stages
In case histories of innovation adoption by local governments, seven innovating stages orfunctionsfrom need identification to diffusion were coded on time ofoccurrence. A method using gamma was applied to measure the time sequence offunctions at each site, and their separation from other functions. These data were used to test the hypothesis that the stages will appear more overlapping and the innovating process more "disorderly "for innovations …
Use of Information Channels in Urban Innovations
When a method of quantitative case histories was applied to 2000 episodes on the sequence of events in installing three types of urban innovations, practitioners were found to make heavy use of both personal and impersonal channels. Types of channels varied by stage in the innovation process. In a simplified scenario the innovating cycle begins with two-person conversations to diagnose a problem, searches for solutions through a variety of channe…

Heise's Causal Model Applied
I Further details on the simulation and its observed outputs are given in an unpublished report by Pelz et al. (1968), prepared under a grant from the National Science Foundation, GS-1873, with supplementary aid from the National Broadcasting Company. The original simulation program was written by Spyros Magliveras. Fruitful suggestions have been given by Graham Kalton. Arthur S. Goldberger (personal correspondence) has indicated alternative ways…

Detecting Causal Priorities in Panel Study Data
Organizational Atmosphere, Motivation, and Research Contribution
Doctors Pelz and Andrews of the Survey Research Center, University of Michi gan, relate organizational and personality factors to scientific accomplishment. Their research serves as an example of how the perspectives of sociology and psychology can be brought to bear on the complexity of activities called "research
The Influence of Anonymity on Expressed Attitudes
When opinion questionnaires are administered in organizations, it is standard practice to assure anonymity. The assumption is that anonymous individuals will feel free to express themselves more frankly—probably in more unfavorable terms. Even if data are collected by a neutral outside agency, with guarantees of confidential handling of data, employees presumably feel freer if anonymous
