Selection and socialization have been implicated in friendship homophily, but the relative contributions of each are difficult to measure simultaneously because of the nonindependent nature of the data. To address this problem, the authors applied a multiple-groups longitudinal actor-partner interdependence model (D. A. Kashy & D. A. Kenny, 2000) for distinguishable dyads to 3 consecutive years...

We apply correspondence analysis for visualization of interdependence of pitch class & key and key & composer. A co-occurrence matrix of key & pitch class frequencies is extracted from score (Bach’s WTC). Keys are represented as high-dimensional pitch class vectors. Correspondence analysis then projects keys on a planar “keyscape”. Vice versa, on “pitchscapes” pitch classes can also be embedded...

NATURE OF COOPERATIVE LEARNING Cooperative learning is an application of social interdependence theory (Deutsch, 1949, 1962; Johnson and Johnson, 1989, 2005, 2009). Social interdependence theory posits that there are two types of social interdependence, positive (cooperative) and negative (competitive). Positive interdependence (i.e., cooperation) exists when individuals perceive that they can ...

This paper develops a joint approach to life and health expectancy based on 2001 UK Census data for limiting long term illness and general health status, and on registered death occurrences in 2001. The model takes account of the interdependence of different outcomes (e.g. ill health and mortality) as well as spatial correlation in their patterns. A particular focus is on the proportionality as...

This dissertation is an attempt to develop and test a comprehensive model for global virtual team effectiveness based on development of partnership among diverse team members and the moderating role of collaborative technology and task interdependence. The model will be tested using filed survey methodology. The model is based on traditional I-P-O framework for understanding team effectiveness....

The manufacturing-marketing (MM) interface has received substantial consideration in the operations management literature; however, relatively little attention has been paid to the role of information systems in facilitating MM integration. As integrated cross-functional systems, enterprise resource planning systems (ERP) are well-suited to provide MM integration. Based on information processin...
