Factors Associated with Choice of School and Major Area of Study by Arab Graduate StudentsZaher, Ghazi 12 1900 (has links)
The problem with which this study is concerned is to determine and identify the factors associated with the choices Arab graduate students make when selecting their graduate school and major area of study at institutions of higher education in the United States. In addition, comparisons are made between the responses of Arab graduate students (1) who attend American private schools with those who attend American public schools and (2) those who are self-supported with those who are outside supported.

3.歸納本研究結果,並提出具體建議,以做為大眾傳播之理論與實務領域之參考。
二、研究文獻:
本研究的文獻探討包括價值觀念、選看晚間電視新聞氣象評估因素之相關理論與研究。
三、研究方法:
本研究採用文獻分析法與問卷調查法。以北區在學之大學學生四百四十三人為主要研究對象。研究工具包括「社會與趣調查問卷」、「觀眾選看晚間電視新聞氣象之評估因素」問卷兩種。使用的統計方法為:次數與百分比、皮爾森積差相關、變異數分析、t檢定、多元迴歸分析等。
四、研究內容:
本研究內容共分為:
1.電視新聞觀眾之人口特性分析與媒介使用行為。
2.電視新聞觀眾之價值觀念現況、差異比較及與媒介使用行為之關係。
3.電視新聞觀眾選看晚間電視新聞氣象之評估因素、差異比較及與媒介使用行為之關係。
4.電視新聞觀眾之價值觀念與選看晚間電視新聞氣象評估因素之關聯性。
5.預測相關變項之多元迴歸分析。
五、研究結果:
(一)電視新聞觀眾之媒介使用行為:
①觀眾獲取消息常見的管道中,認為電視新聞最重要,報紙次重要,廣播第三重要。②觀眾平均每天收看電視的時間約一小時左右。③觀眾平均每週收看晚間電視新聞氣象之天數約三、四天。④觀眾平均每天收看晚間新聞氣象的時間為21分鐘至30分鐘。⑤觀眾最常收看晚間新聞氣象之頻道為台視第一,華視次之,中視第三。⑥觀眾收看電視新聞時經常是很專心的。
觀眾之人口特性與媒介使用行為之關係:
觀眾接觸電視之時間、接觸晚間新聞氣象之頻率、接觸晚間新聞氣象之時間皆因人口特性之不同而有所差異,而收看電視新聞之專心程度則不因人口特性之不同而有所差異。
(二)電視新聞觀眾之價值觀念:
電視新聞觀眾重視的價值觀念依序為審美、社會、經濟、政治、理論、宗教。電視新聞觀眾之價值型人數多寡依序為審美型、社會型、經濟型、政治型、理論型、宗教型。
1.觀眾價值觀念之差異:
①性別上之差異是男性較女性重視理論、經濟、政治價值,女性較男性重視社會、審美價值。
②就讀學校之差異為就讀公立學校者較就讀私立學校者重視經濟、審美、宗教價值,就讀私立學校者較就讀公立學校者重視理論、社會、政治價值。
③另外,觀眾之價值觀念因就讀學院、年級、成長地區、宗教信仰、母親職業、父親教有程度、母親教育程度、省籍之不同,故價值觀類型有差異存在,但不因父親職業、全家月平均收入之不同而有所差異。
2.觀眾價值觀念與媒介使用行為之關係:
觀眾價值觀念之不同,在收看電視新聞時之專心程度上有差異存在,在收看電視時間、每週收看晚間新聞氣象之天數及每天收看晚間新聞氣象之時間上則無差異存在。
(三)觀眾選看晚間新聞氣象之評估因素:
1.觀眾選看晚間新聞氣象評估因素之差異:
觀眾選看晚間新聞氣象之評估因素會因就讀學校、學院、年級、性別、宗教信仰、父母親職業、父親教有程度之不同而有差異存在,則不因成長地區、母親教有程度、全家每月平均收入、省籍之不同而存在差異。
2.觀眾選看晚間新聞氣象評估因素與媒介使用行為之關係(見第三章第三節)。
(四)觀眾價值觀念與選看晚間新聞氣象評估因素之關係:
價值觀念之不同,在選看晚間新聞氣象時,在以主動性因素之新聞報導取向、新聞品質、新聞公信力、時間安排及以被動性因素為評估依據上有顯著差異存在,在主動性因素之主播形象、製作風格、新聞寓教功能、新聞播出型態等選擇依據上則無差異存在。
(五)預測相關變項之多元迴歸分析(見第三章第五節)。

As rental yacht sales agents are mostly virtual companies, which mainly use Internet to reach target customers and conduct most of the purchase process. Therefore, one question that need to be researched is how important is the website for the rental yacht sales agent when it comes to getting new customers and keeping the old ones? Purpose: The purpose of the study is to find out what the selection criteria which customers use to evaluate when booking yacht online are. Method: This study is primarily based on qualitative research by using in-depth interview method. Customer decision making process is applied in order to suit with the topic. The data collection came from two sources, primary and secondary data. Conclusion: The important selection criteria for new customers are websites containing necessary information which mentioned by the interviewees during the interview, word of mouth of the company and services from the company and its sale staff. These three selection criteria have huge effect on new customers in order to book yacht online. For the experienced customers, there are two selection criteria which are considered as the most important criteria which are services from the company and its sale staff and website containing necessary information.

Creating a Systems Engineering Approach for the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control DevicesMcNeal, Heather 2010 May 1900 (has links)
The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) establishes the basic principles for the design, selection, installation, operation, maintenance, and removal of traffic control devices (TCDs). The MUTCD indicates that some TCDs that are required and some are recommended, depending on the situation. However, most TCDs are not required and the decision to use a given TCD in a given situation is typically made by an engineer (or an individual working under engineering supervision) based on a variety of information. Not all engineers have the same degree of experience in making TCD decisions, and not all engineers that make these decisions have traffic engineering expertise. There are many other factors not addressed by the MUTCD that can lead to differences in the decision-making process. To assist engineers with evaluating these factors, this research developed a decision analysis process to assist engineers with making TCD decisions.
The value of this research is the idea that the decision analysis process for TCD can be modeled and analyzed using appropriate factors. The developed factors include need, impact, influence, and cost. The process developed in this research applies two elements to each factor. One element compares the importance of each factor among all the other factors, and the other incorporates the engineer's judgment into the TCD decision. The first element described uses a decision analysis method, analytic hierarchy process, to determine the weights for each factor, or coefficients, as applied generally to a TCD. The second uses a mixture of quantitative and qualitative engineering judgment to determine the degree to which the factor applies to the TCD situation, or situational variable. The output of this process was a utility value that can be compared to a scale and determine the installation value of the device. This process will contribute to more uniform decisions amongst all levels of experience in TCD decision-making. Additional research that could expand on this developed process would include data collection on typical importance values for each factor as applied to a TCD and on decision scales for specific TCD situations.
When applying this research, it is important to remember that it is not the intent of this process to remove engineering judgment. This is an important part of the process and should remain as such.

MATRICES AND ROUTINGFošner, Ajda 13 April 2012 (has links) (PDF)
The study of matrices have been of interest to mathematicians for some time. Recently the use of matrices has assumed greater importance also in the fields of management, social science, and natural science because they are very useful in the organization and presentation of data and in the solution of linear equations. The theory of matrices is yet another type of mathematical model which we can use to solve many problems that arise in these fields. The aim of this paper is to show how we can use matrices and their mathematical model to solve some problems in the process of routing. First we will introduce the term of routing and the new approach in the process of selecting paths. We will show some simple examples. We will also pint out how we can learn about matrices in the classroom. At the end we will discuss about advantages and potential disadvantages that may occur in the described technique.
