The congruence coefficient was first introduced by Burt (1948) under the name of unadjusted correlation as a measure of the similarity of two factorial configurations. The name congruence coefficient was later tailored by Tucker (1951, see also Harman, 1976). The congruence coefficient is also sometimes called a monotonicity coefficient (Borg & Groenen, 1997, p. 203). The congruence coefficient...

This paper aims to combine spatial information with reveal spatial-temporal evolution characteristics of its driving factors. It found that industries Beijing, Tianjin Hebei show an obvious agglomeration pattern, region showing Moran’s I = 0.385579 during 2005–2010, 0.319463 2010–...

Numerous investigators have emphasized how important it is for both researchers and applied practitioners in the field of performance psychology to have a sound theoretical base that guides their work (Moran, 1996; Abernethy, 1993; Druckman & Swets, 1988). This is especially true in the cognitive area where Moran maintains that “research on concentration in athletes has been conducted largely i...

To understand inferences based on sampling random relationships among a small sample of individuals of a contemporary population we need to know some basic models of population history. Several such models exist. Fisher (1929, and 1930) and Wright (1931) developed independently a simple population model. We call this model the Wright-Fisher population model. Alternatives are the Moran model, de...
