3.8.2 Geary’s C Another measure of spatial autocorrelation is Geary’s C statistic which ranges from 0 to 2 where 0 signifies maximum positive spatial autocorrelation or clustering, 1 signifies no autocorrelation or randomness and 2 signifies maximum negative autocorrelation or dispersal. If the values of Geary’s C are low it indicates positive spatial autocorrelation and if the values are high it indicates negative spatial autocorrelation. The calculation is similar to Moran’s I but here the…

“The golden ratio is a special number found by dividing a line into two parts so that the longer part divided by the smaller part is also equal to the whole length divided by the longer part.” (Elaine J. Hom )After the 21st century, golden ratio represents as a phi in Greek alphabet. The equation for golden ratio is a/b = (a+b)/a = 1.6180339887498948420 …,but if we round it two places, it will be 1.62.the golden ratio is also called the golden mean, golden section, golden number and so on. The…

The efficient market hypothesis (EMH) is widely used to analyse the financial market and security prices. The EMH is efficient if public information is totally reflected by asset prices (Malkiel, 2003, p.59). Malkiel (2003, p.59) implies that information of stock market was exactly shown by security market. In the last ten years, the EMH had significant effect on the financial market. This essay aims to show the three main types of the EMH and analyses if the EMH works in the real market economy…

Scientists today know mostly everything there is to know about life on prebiotic Earth approximately four billion years ago, yet, they still do not possess the answer as to how life came to be from inorganic matter. Many question how life could have risen from non-living materials and become as complex as it is. Nobody knows for certain how the transition from inorganic matter to life occurred, however, there are several theories made to explain this transition (i.e. Clay theory, Primordial Soup…

become significant or just coincidental. One of the most commonly used Confidence Interval is 95%, if the sample is due to coincidence, the difference is not significant we will fail to reject the null hypothesis, however if the difference is significant we will reject the null hypothesis. The null hypothesis, written as H0 states that nothing new has happened and the old theory still stands true. To determine if the variation is significant or coincidental we observed the p value, if the p…

Question 1. What is the goal of utility analysis? Why do recent models of utility fail to accomplish this goal? Answer Utility Analysis (UA), not only is the process where the description and prediction determines the desirability of decisions; it provides formulas for computing the dollar value of human resource programs (Boudreau, 1987). UA also examines how the information obtained are going to affect manager’s decisions. Utility refers to the expected gains to be derived from using a…

Logistic Regression model will be used to analyze the research data pertaining to identify the strength of religiosity and how it affects vaccination behaviors among US children age 6 years or less. The Logistic Regression Model would be used in our research because the dependent variable is a categorical variable which is define at two levels (vaccination behaviors). The Logistic Regression model is defined as a statistical analysis that used to measure the risk or odds of an event between the…

there were two raters, and we found between the two raters scoring “The Sun” was in agreement 97% of the time and “Sea Otters” was in agreement 94% of the time. Our first hypothesis was that recall for the study/study condition will be higher than for the study/test condition for the five minute delay. Our second hypothesis was that recall for the study/test condition should be higher than for the study/study condition for the two day delay. The mean amount of items recalled for the…

My null hypothesis would state that between adult learners taking a course online or in a class setting, there is no difference between midterm tests, on the occasion that both groups take a proctored midterm test. My alternative hypothesis would state that between adult learners taking a course online or in a class setting, there is a difference between midterm tests, on the occasion that both groups take a proctored midterm test. My target population would be first-year students taking college…

Statistical Analysis: Means and standard deviations were calculated for body composition (body fat), power (vertical jump, Broad jump, average power), speed (20M sprint), Lower limb strength (1RM Squat) and endurance (12min run) for each training group. A factorial repeated-measures ANOVA was used to examine significance between the independent variables of testing (pre- and post-) and groups (control and chest and hip deep) on the dependent variables. Statistical significancewas set a priori…
