Tips for Developing and Testing Questionnaires/Instruments
Questionnaires are the most widely used data collection methods in educational and evaluation research. This article describes the process for developing and testing questionnaires and posits five sequential steps involved in developing and testing a questionnaire: research background, questionnaire conceptualization, format and data analysis, and establishing validity and reliability. Systematic development of questionnaires is a must to reduce many measurement errors. Following these five steps in questionnaire development and testing will enhance data quality and utilization of research
Writing Success Stories for Program Enhancement and Accountability
Success stories showcase Extension program efforts. In a time of greater demand for accountability and performance measurement, success stories provide a qualitative measure of Extension program success. This article describes the rationale, the need, and tips for writing success stories. From the accountability standpoint, success stories serve as readily available piece of information for program impact. In addition, they also serve as a communication and marketing tool and also improving the communication and/or writing skills of Extension agents
Understanding the rise and decline of shareholder activism in South Korea: the explanatory advantages of the theory of Modes of Exchange
© 2016 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. Abstract: The extent to which Korea has become a full-fledged neoliberal state has been subject to debate. We argue that the recent rise and fall of shareholder activism in Korea is related to the coexistence of neoliberal and developmental state characteristics. Uncertainty as to ‘the rules of the game’ during this uneven transition has provided the chaebol with an opportunity to defuse the radical potential of shareholder activism. Through an analysis of media reports, this article argues there is a relationship between the rise of fall shareholder activism in Korea and a retreat from neoliberalism. It then discusses advantages of the theory of Modes of Exchange to make sense of these developments
Secure Privacy Implications for Clients and End-users through Key Assortment Crypto Techniques Implicated Algorithm
The main role of key assortment crypto techniques will helpful to provide the security to the sensitive data and play the key role for business developments. Some of the problems are rising when the scheme will sustain the possession control to present the latest set of technical and business concerns. Some of the complex challenges are waiting for the optimistic solutions. The challenges are: In the planned storage confidentiality implicated outline, the stipulation of encryption framework for the data which is conserve the self tunning to execute major key constratints by concerining their files which is imposed plaintext belonging, the owners of the privacy-data preserve the seclusion power over their own information to formulate assured wide-ranging service operations and the owners of data are facing the complexity to organize their possess data which is accessible-mode in cloud servers, concerned inner services: topology architecture type of implicated data with their operations, associated secrecy-privacy-secrecy dynamic replicas for make use of the databased security within their range of format and secretarial services with their encrypted data execution control. To overcome theses in convinces this paper is proposing the technical ideals through the algorithmic methodology along the graphical flow based architecture. This paper is proposing the key assortment crypto techniques implicated algorithm for clients and end-users to reduce the above mention complex difficulties; it describes the primary encryption implicated techniques and various levels of cryptographic algorithms with their implications along with extensions of cloud implicated data security and digital forensics implicated appliances which is implicated with enhanced various hash functions
Some threshold results of ecological competition model with reserve for one species and harvesting at fixed rates.
In the present investigation the stability analysis of a two-species competing ecological model with reserve for one species and harvesting at fixed rates is highlighted in view of principle of competitive exclusion due to Gause (1934). The model is characterized by a pair of non-linear system of ordinary differential equations. The equilibrium states are identified and a threshold theorem is derived to establish the stability of the co-existent equilibrium state
Estimation of Economic Returns to Soil and Water Conservation Research – An Ex Ante Analysis
The economic returns to investment made in soil and water conservation research have been analyzed. Technologies such as conservation furrow, residue incorporation have been found to be economically viable under farmers’ conditions. The study has covered four locations, viz. Agra and Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh, Kota in Rajasthan and Jabalpur in Madhya Pradesh. The economic surplus analysis has revealed that when adopted on a large scale, soil and water conservation technologies generate significant economic surplus as reflected in high NPV and BC ratio. The share of producer surplus has been found to be higher in the total economic surplus generated from technology adoption. Thus, investments in generation and transfer of soil and water conservation technologies have been found be justified in terms of economic benefits. However, various constraints that hamper adoption of these technologies are to be addressed so that the potential benefits could be realized by both farmer and consumer.Agricultural and Food Policy,
