2.6 Behavioral intention The UTAUT construct consist a helpful emerging idea in studying the behavioral intention and social media used (Gruzd, Staves & Wilk, 2012). The behavioral intention is assessment about the purpose in order to perform or complete some or particular behavior (Ajzen & Fishbein, 1980).

Not much is known about Hispanics or other minority groups and their interaction or perception of the police.

1. What is the goal of the study? (describe, explain, predict, advise) • The goal of the study was to exam whether children that nap after learning new verbs were able to retain that information. The researcher wanted to know if napping really made a difference in children learning. Sandoval and her colleagues tested 39 children within the age of 3 years old and were divided into two groups, the ones that napped and did not nap. Within these groups the children were randomly assigned whether…

1968), violent subcultures (Anderson, 1999), social bond (Hirschi, 1969), self-control (Gottfredson & HIrschi, 1990), and biosocial perspectives (Raine, 2002). The current study’s poverty measure was the only statistically significant positive predictor of victimization rates for both men and…

education success is a good indicator of retention. The researchers also mention that findings indicated that TRIO support services and Financial Aid are predictors for student retention.

strong support as predictors of overall participation across each of the racial groups (Leighley and Vedlitz 1999). After testing the five models, the scholars conclude that the SES and psychological resource models are strongly supported with Education Income, Political Efficacy, and Political Interest significantly associated with higher levels of participation. However, the authors find that there are exceptions to these models, one being that income is an insignificant predictor of overall…

three variables played the role of the criterion, while predictors were the factors that have obtained significant correlations with the criterion. The preliminary analysis showed the data conformity with the multiple regression assumptions about normality, linearity and homoscedasticity; the tolerance coefficients above .1 (Sava, 2004) and VIF values (Variation Inflation Factor) below 10 indicated the lack of data multicollinearity. All predictors statistically correlated with the criterion,…

Romantic relationships play an important role in the lives of many people. Couples who experience satisfying relationships have higher levels of well being and life satisfaction (Watson, Hubbard &Wiese, 2000). One of the most important predictors of relationship satisfaction are personality traits (Karney & Bradbury, 1995). Based on the intrapersonal model of marriage, an individual’s response to social stimuli is largely determined by his or her own enduring characteristics and personality…

After the publication of TCRTE, a number of educational scholars began to publish work in CRTE, thus expanding the relatively new theoretical framework. Tate (1997) published an extensive overview of CRT by recounting the major theoretical foundations of CRT and ascertaining the propositions that are pertinent to educational research and policy. Similarly, Taylor (1999) prepared a brief introduction of CRT describing the legal scholars who founded CRT, their major contributions, and how to…

tend to be more of an internal emotion, rather than assessing the physical impacts of a disaster. It important for the local emergency manager to utilize the demographic predictors regarding social vulnerabilities while preparing for and planning all phases of their local Emergency Operations Plan (EOP). The demographic predictors are gender, age, education, income, and…
