This study investigates the impact of coaching expertise on project management outcomes within Six Sigma programs. Survey data were collected from 140 Black Belts and 176 team members at six organizations. In this research, the relationships between the independent variables (project characteristics, coaching expertise, employee focus, years of experience, number of projects completed, education level, and number of projects in a team) and the dependent variables (project management outcomes) were tested using linear regression. The data were analyzed for two groups-Black Belts and team members-using descriptive statistics, principle component factor analysis, correlation, and regression analysis. The results of the regression analyses showed that the independent variable coaching exper...

The aim of the present study was to explore the educational background of the total population of inmates in Norwegian prisons. The sample consisted of all 3 289 inmates over 18 years of age in Norwegian prisons. The response rate was 71.1 percent. Ninety four percent of the participants were men and mean age was 35 years. A questionnaire containing questions about age, gender and level of completed education was distributed to the participants. The results revealed that compared to the general population, prison inmates in Norway have an educational level that is similar to the educational level of the general population between 1980 and 1990. The percentage of prison inmates with primary and lower secondary education as their highest attained educational level is almost the double of ...

Sin taxes, popular source of tax revenue, are best applied to antisocial and inelastic consumption. But what consumption behaviors are antisocial and addictive? This research examines the assumption that excessive antisocial consumption - affluenza - is addictive. Four hundred fourteen subjects completed a measure of affluenza. Analysis identified six factors: materialism, overspending, urgency, financial stress, shopaholicism, and self-centeredness. The results showed little evidence of the hypothesized level of affluenza in the American working population, with some limited impact of age, gender and education. Politicians looking for sins to tax may be looking in all the wrong places.

Sixty-five public schools in West Virginia, including several in Kanawha, Putnam and Jackson counties, were honored as exemplary schools by the state Board of Education at a dinner Monday night at Embassy Suites. To be eligible, the schools needed to perform strongly on the WESTEST 2, a standardized test of reading, math, science and social studies and writing. Also, the student attendance rate needed to be 94 percent or better, while high school graduation rates needed to be 85 percent or better. Also, high schools needed to show that their students have completed advanced-level classes and a majority of their graduates planned to continue their education.

A negative correlation between education and fertility has been described with great regularity in modern societies. The present investigation examines the strength of this relationship with data from the 1990, 1995 and 2000 waves of the World Values Survey covering 78 countries with a combined sample size of up to 181,728 respondents. The negative correlation is present in nearly all countries, is stronger in females than males, is greater for educational level than for length of schooling, and is not mediated by personal wealth. It is strongest at relatively low levels of economic, social and cognitive development and becomes weaker in the most advanced societies. However, it is also less than maximal in the least developed countries. The relationship is strongest in Latin America and...
