The two main types of social movement‚ Old Social Movements and New Social Movements‚ share similarities but also have noticeable differences. Bagguley argues that Old Social Movements are mainly influenced by class and economic factors. Many OSMs take the form of Trade Unions. For example‚ there are several teachers

biological race that helps to describe human biological variation has had a long debate in physical anthropology. Liberman et al. (2003) argued that there is much debate over the degree to which supports the idea of race concept within the field of physical anthropology has changed over time (Liberman et al. p 16). The term “race” is not only common but it has been used to refer to the aspects of both biological and cultural variation. However it is not always the best way to describe or analyze the human

Qualitative Data Data that can be categorized into one of several non-numerical categories is qualitative. You are recording some quality that the data possesses. Care needs to be taken to avoid assigning numbers to the categories then computing with them. This type of data is either nominal or ordinal. Nominal The number we assign to some object‚ idea‚ or behavior is entirely arbitrary‚ although in some cases a tradition may establish the rules of assignment. If measurements are assigned

6. Below are listed some objects of varying degrees of abstraction. Suggest properties of each of these objects that can be measured by each of the four basic types of scales. There are relatively few pure interval scales found in business research. Almost all text discussions of this scale refer to the example of temperature scales. However‚ some attitude scales such as the Likert and Semantic Differential‚ are claimed to approach interval characteristics. In addition‚ approximate interval scales

The purpose of this lab was to familiarize ourselves with different techniques used in the lab‚ taking proper measurements‚ and how to use the International System of Units (SI). Throughout lab we learned about mas‚ volume‚ length and temperature‚ and to be able determine density and concentration. To be able to documents properly and make effective observations we must be able to understand the International Measurement System. Length‚ temperature‚ time
