This study analyzed the characteristics of the population of one of the poorest marginalized pastoralists in East Africa – Datoga of Northern Tanzania. Our data were collected during field research in Nothern Tanzania in 2006– 2010. In total, the sample for analysis was 688 people (358 female and 330 male) aged 6 to 90 years. Information on reproduction and survival, the main activities (pastoralism, blacksmithing, agriculture), the number and type of livestock has been obtained in the process of personal interviews. Our data of survival and reproductive characteristics of Datoga confirm their marginal position in modern Tanzania, and indicate an extremely hostile environment for this ethnic group in the region. Datoga practice the traditional model of marriage and reproduction in current condition of changes in the political and economic situation in the northern Tanzania.

We argue that a classification-based approach to measuring cultural differences across countries or subnational regions is a promising complement, and sometimes an alternative, to the widely used dimensional method in cross-cultural research. The latter summarises cultural variation using continuous dimensions, for example, Hofstede’s famous individualism-collectivism dimension. However, this approach relies on strong parametric assumptions, which are ...

Non-probability web surveys offer several advantages over face-to-face (F2F) interviews—they are cheaper, faster, more accessible, and reduce interviewer effects and desirability bias. As such, they are increasingly popular in both academic and commercial research. However, they often yield demographically biased samples, raising concerns about the accuracy of the resulting public opinion estimates. Most studies on ...

Для понимания какого-либо качества, как правило, выбирается, некоторая подходящая для его оценки шкала (скажем, от 1 до 5), и, согласно этой шкале, качеству присваиваются одна или несколько оценок. Эти оценки затем преобразуются в одну, “усредненную”, оценку; например, выбирается среднее арифметическое. Так, несданная сессия с тремя баллами 5, 2 и 5 “характеризуется’’ средней оценкой хорошо: (5+2+5)/3 = ...
