The 'Southern Subculture of Violence' Thesis and Patterns of Gun Ownership
Several researchers (Reed, 1972; Gastil, 1971; Hackney, 1969) have suggested that rates of interpersonal violence, particularly homicide, are relatively high in the South because the subculture predisposes Southerners to use violence more frequently than others. This thesis has been questioned by Loftin and Hill (1974) and Erlanger (1975) who show that situational and structural factors could account for regional differences in interpersonal viol…
A Logarithmic Technique for Decomposing Change
Building upon informal practices, this paper describes a logarithmic technique for decomposing change in a quantity which is assumed to be the product of several factors. Using logs, one can decompose change expressed as a ratio and allocate the change to changes in the factors. The technique is appropriate for examining change in a quantity which is assumed to be the product of several factors; in such situations this technique is much easier to…
Leadership and Organizational Performance: A Study of Large Corporations
Leadership influence in large complex organizations, though commonly assumed to be greatly significant, is normally not studied in terms of the variance accounted for in organizational performance. The leadership effect is viewed here as a product of an organization's environmental constraints and its leadership variance. Based on sales, earnings, and profit margin data for 167 large corporations over twenty years, we compare the impact of leader…
