Introduction Richard F. Fenno, Jr. has undoubtedly made some of the biggest contributions to political science that society has ever seen. With that being said, Bernhard and Sulkin have also contributed to the field of political science in some sense with things such as innovation in analytics and equations, quantitative data, along with their knack of coming up with new legislative styles, and identifying the styles of lesser-known legislators. They did have some strengths but overall the more…

These settings should provide enough interview respondents for almost every stratified category identified earlier except for instructors of mariachi. It is not hard to imagine that some of the various mariachi musical performers may be instructors as well, so there may be overlap within these two subgroups of cultural creators. There is also a chance that mariachi performers, aficionados, and gatekeepers may…

Heavily compacted soil is soil that has…

nonprobability sampling. A probability sampling is a method of sampling that utilizes some form of random selection. Thus, every single member of a population has an equal opportunity to be in the study. Common types of probability sampling are: simple random, stratified random, cluster, and systematic sampling. Simple random sample is a method of sampling in which the researcher uses a random table, number, or computer program to select from a population of interest who will be in the study.…
