introduction: ethical climate is a part of organizational culture. organizational values deal with ethical issues and determine what is considered ethically correct. the ethical climate of an organization can predict unethical and ethical behaviors. this study aimed to investigate and model the structural equations between the intention to quit and ethical climate, job satisfaction, and organiz...

agility is considered the ability to respond quickly to changes and a major factor for success and survival in today's business. the purpose of this research is to offer a conceptual model using interpretive structural modeling(ism). to this end after reviewing literature and theoretical background, the indices related to achieving agility via information technology (it) have been identifi...

Structural equation modeling (SEM) grows out of and serves purposes similar to multiple regression, but in a more powerful way which takes into account the modeling of interactions, nonlinearities, correlated independents, measurement error, correlated error terms, multiple latent independents each measured by multiple indicators, and one or more latent dependents also each with multiple indica...

In this article, the influence of various vacancy defects on the Young’s modulus of carbon nanotube (CNT) - reinforcement polymer composite in the axial direction is investigated via a structural model in ANSYS software. Their high strength can be affected by the presence of defects in the nanotubes used as reinforcements in practical nanocomposites. Molecular structural mechanics (MSM)/finite ...

This chapter discusses various methods that have been used to estimate structural models of search and survival models. Most of the focus is on using available data, usually on unemployment spell lengths and accepted wage o¤ers, to estimate the parameters of speci...c search models. In particular, we focus on estimating the parameters of the wage o¤er distribution, the reservation wage or reser...

Robins (1993, 1994, 1997, 1998ab) has developed a set of causal or counterfactual models, the structural nested models (SNMs). This paper describes an alternative new class of causal modelsthe (non-nested) marginal structural models (MSMs). We will then describe a class of semiparametric estimators for the parameters of these new models under a sequential randomization (i.e., ignorability) assu...
