The Crux of the Method
The Crux of the Method
Logistic regression has increasingly become the tool of choice when analyzing data with a binary dependent variable. While resources relating to the technique are widely available, clear discussions of why logistic regression should be used in place of ordinary least squares regression are difficult to find. The current paper compares and contrasts the assumptions of ordinary least squares with those of logistic regression and explains why logist…
Why Study the Complexity Sciences in the Social Sciences
Over the past two decades, several new perspectives have emerged in the physical and natural sciences and are collectively referred to as the complexity sciences. Insights from these emerging perspectives have implications that merit consideration for developments and extensions of existing work at the metatheoretical, theoretical, and methodological levels in organization theory. The purpose of this manuscript is to: (a) provide an overview of t…
Association of Indicators and Predictors of TIE Strength
Arguments deriving from the importance of the strength of social ties between individuals are being applied in social and organizational analysis; however, lack of empirical verification of the components of the construct and lack of consistency in the use of proxy measures have made difficult the resolution of controversies surrounding the relative merits of strong and weak ties. This study examined the relations between predictors and indicator…
Volta Redonda
burning furnaces located near deposits of iron ore. However, Brazilians made little progress in the smelting industry, since their attention was diverted again and again by new mineral and agricultural discoveries. Thus, in 1940, Brazilian steel was still produced in furnaces using charcoal, and combined yearly output amounted to only one-half the production (about 300,000 tons) of the new coke-burning plant at Volta Redonda
