Identifying and Predicting Nascent High-Growth Firms Using Machine Learning
La prédiction des entreprises qui connaîtront une croissance rapide, et les raisons pour lesquelles elles le font, fait l'objet de recherches depuis de nombreuses décennies. Les chercheurs explorent l'utilisation de techniques d'apprentissage machine supervisées (modèle de filet élastique, forêt d'arbres décisionnels et filet neuronal) pour trouver une population embryonnaire d'entreprises à forte croissance (EFC) dans les données administratives…
Translating Evidence into Practice
The Pastoral Care department at Mercy Medical Center in Baltimore embarked on an evidence-based practice (EBP) project to identify best practices for improving nurses’ well-being. This article describes the EBP model and its application. The project resulted in increased nurse awareness of the chaplain's role, nurses’ confidence in using chaplain services, and nurses’ well-being. The project's success indicates the value of chaplains learning an …
In the Footsteps of Mackintosh and Innis
In this article, we track the historical movement in Canada’s economic centre of gravity (ECG) since the early 20th century. A simple weighted mean centre approach is applied to a novel data set containing long-run estimates of household income at the provincial level. The analysis reveals that from 1926 to 2013, Canada’s ECG shifted westward by a net distance of 204 kilometres. Concomitant with this broad geographical shift, we identify six dist…
Have Adolescents Become Too Ambitious? High School Seniors' Educational and Occupational Plans, 1976 to 2000
This article tracks changes in high school seniors' educational and occupational plans over a twenty-five year period and assesses whether these plans have become increasingly unrealistic. Comparisons of seniors' career plans with the contemporaneous achievements of high school graduates confirms that high school seniors' ambitions outpace what they are likely to achieve, a gap that is growing over time. Teenagers' increasingly expect that commun…
