US security posture in the Middle East need for a change? / United States security posture in the Middle EastLogue, Bart W. 12 1900 (has links)
The United States forward military presence in the Middle East has been on the rise for well over a decade. Recent polling data has indicated that favorable Arab public opinion of the United States and its foreign policy is in decline. This thesis explores the unfavorable opinions of the Arab world toward U.S. foreign policies, utilizing data from recent polls taken in several countries in the Middle East, and suggests a causal relationship between the development of unfavorable opinion in the Arab world with the growth of the U.S. forward military presence in the region. This research provides a breakdown of the growth of the U.S. military footprint in the Middle East over the last two decades. The research presented provides an overview of how U.S. foreign policy toward the Middle East has developed and argues the necessity of reform in the current U.S. strategic approach toward the Middle East. / US Marine Corps (USMC) author.

The role of expectations in determining intrinsic job satisfactionKlass, Bertrand January 1952 (has links)
Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston University / Morale has been defined as the sum of the satisfactions which the individual experiences because of his membership and involvement in an organization. Recently there has been a movement away from the study of the global morale concept to the different types of satisfactions that individuals derive from the industrial situation. Intrinsic job satisfaction is defined by the degree of satisfaction obtained by the individual employee from performing those tasks which constitute the content of his job.
This study was concerned primarily with an investigation of the role of expectations as related to the extent of fulfillment of these expectations in determining intrinsic job satisfaction. Job importance, contribution made by doing the job, the work's relationship to the kind of work that public relations practitioners do, and statements as to how interesting or how uninteresting the work was,- were the major criteria used to structure expectations. Intrinsic job satisfaction was treated as the dependent variable. An attempt was also made to relate intrinsic job satisfaction levels to productivity levels. [TRUNCATED]

Opinion leaders in the new social environment : A Youtube case on social media opinion leadersGonzalez, Amanda, Blomqvist, Joseph, Hu, Tianchen January 2016 (has links)
Due to the development of new technology, there has been a shift in many communication concepts. With consumers now gaining more control in the online environment, more influential consumers, or ‘opinion leaders’, can also gain from this increase in power. However, insufficient research has been conducted regarding the concept of social media opinion leadership, and in particular what the relational nature of these new opinion leaders is. Therefore, this study aims to explore this issue within the social media opinion leadership theory. A qualitative research design was applied to get a more in depth insight to the issue, in where interviews were conducted with followers of specific opinion leader on a social media platform. The empirical data was analyzed through the means of coding and interpretation which then lead into the theory of what possible relationships can be found amongst social media opinion leaders and their followers. Conclusively, three types of relationships emerged as most dominant: the trustworthiness relationship, the friendly relationship and the passive relationship. The theoretical contributions of this paper together with practical implications and suggestion for future research are discussed based on that conclusion.

Essays on the Measurement of Public OpinionStollwerk, Alissa Florence January 2017 (has links)
The study of public opinion has become increasingly central to our understanding of American politics. What the American public believes, why it holds those beliefs, and whether or not those beliefs matter have become essential questions that guide our understanding of how American democracy functions. In order to answer these questions, however, it is important to consider the tools we use to measure public opinion accurately and reliably and to understand the substantive applications and limitations of those tools. This dissertation is composed of three essays that consider important questions in public opinion measurement today. The first considers how the technique of multilevel regression with poststratification (MRP) performs on polling data collected using area-based cluster sampling techniques. While MRP has been a boon to researchers with limited resources, it must still be examined to understand its strengths and shortcomings. The second paper uses two datasets to look at the measurement of scales of political values over time, focusing on both individual and state-level measures, and discusses implications of these results for larger debates around the measurement of partisan sorting and polarization. The third paper turns to the question of social desirability bias in polling. Specifically, it uses list experiments to look at whether survey respondents answer truthfully when asked about support for same-sex rights. These papers all aim to shed light on recent innovations in the measurement of public opinion and illustrate how we can use these innovations to improve our understanding of American public opinion.
