Attitude Measurement
The field of attitude research has long been recognised as one of the most important and influential within social psychology. But the ever-increasing popularity of survey research as a source of what the public thinks and feels about a wide range of issues has brought the subject into the popular arena, heightening the relevance of the theory and practice of attitude measurement.Roger Jowell and Caroline Roberts, acknowledged leaders in this area of research, have combed the literature to bring together the most comprehensive collection available.The four volumes cover key advances since serious study of the subject began to appear (in the 1920s), with a selection of the articles and papers which present the key figures, the major steps forward in theory or practice and some of the most creative and ingenious methodological work in the social sciences.This set will provide a rich reference source that should appeal to academics and practitioners alike.

Measurement Madness : Recognizing and Avoiding the Pitfalls of Performance Measurement
A clearer, more accurate performance management strategy Over the past two decades, performance measurement has profoundly changed societies, organizations and the way we live and work.We can now access incredible quantities of data, display, review and report complex information in real time, and monitor employees and processes in detail.But have all these investments in collecting, analysing and reporting data helped companies, governments and people perform better?Measurement Madness is an engaging read, full of anecdotes so peculiar you'll hardly believe them.Each one highlights a performance measurement initiative that went wrong, explains why and – most importantly – shows you how to avoid making the same mistake yourself. The dangers of poorly designed performance measurement are numerous, and even the best how-to guides don't explain how to avoid them.Measurement Madness fills in the gap, showing how to ensure you’re measuring the right things, rewarding the behaviours that deserve rewarding, and interpreting results in a way that will improve things rather than complicate them.This book will help you to recognize, correct and even avoid common performance measurement problems, including: Measuring for the sake of measuringAssuming that measurement is an instant fix for performance issuesComparing sets of data that have nothing in common and hoping to learn somethingUsing targets and rewards to promote certain behaviours, and achieving exactly the opposite ones. Reading Measurement Madness will enable you to design a simple, effective performance measurement system, which will have the intended result of creating value in your organization.

What is the difference between measurement inaccuracies and measurement errors?
Measurement inaccuracies refer to the discrepancies between the measured value and the true value of a quantity, which can be caused by various factors such as instrument calibration or environmental conditions. On the other hand, measurement errors are the differences between the measured value and the true value that are due to mistakes made during the measurement process, such as human error or faulty equipment. Inaccuracies are more systematic and can be corrected through calibration, while errors are more random and can be minimized through careful measurement techniques.

What is the difference between angular measurement and arc measurement?
Angular measurement refers to the measurement of angles in degrees, radians, or other units, while arc measurement refers to the measurement of the length of an arc on a circle. Angular measurement is used to quantify the amount of rotation between two lines, while arc measurement is used to quantify the length of a curved segment of a circle. In other words, angular measurement focuses on the angle formed by two intersecting lines, while arc measurement focuses on the length of the curved segment of a circle.

How is the background measurement carried out in beta spectrum measurement?
In beta spectrum measurement, the background measurement is carried out by placing the detector in a shielded environment to minimize external interference. The detector is then left to measure the background radiation for a certain period of time without any radioactive source nearby. This background measurement helps in determining the baseline radiation levels that need to be subtracted from the actual beta spectrum measurement to obtain accurate results. Additionally, background measurements are essential for identifying and eliminating any sources of contamination or interference that could affect the beta spectrum data.

What is the underbust measurement for a measurement of 73 cm?
The underbust measurement is typically taken right under the bust, where the band of a bra would sit. For a measurement of 73 cm, the underbust measurement would likely be around 68-70 cm, as the band size of a bra is usually a few centimeters smaller than the actual underbust measurement to provide a snug fit and support. It is important to note that individual body shapes and sizes can vary, so it's always best to try on different sizes to find the most comfortable fit.
