aspects of redistricting remain less studied, which may limit ...

This article examines industrial employment as an independent channel for the influence of economic structure on values. Unlike Inglehart and Welzel’s cultural theory of modernization, which focuses on GDP growth and existential security, we propose an additional, organizational-logical channel for the influence of economic change on cultural change, linked to the micro-contexts of the workplace. ...

Исторически Европа выступала «значимым Другим» для интеллектуального сообщества России, которая вслед за веяниями европейской культуры колебалась между «гегелистами» и «нигилистами», если воспользоваться выражением тургеневского героя. Действительно, начиная с эпохи Петра Первого, интеллектуальную повестку России задавали европейские властители дум, и отечественное просвещенное общество воспринимало Европу как «страну святых чудес» (А.С. Хомяков). ХХ век был ознаменован двумя ...

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 = ...
