The purpose of the study was to find out how a group of
faculty wives with children used their time and to investigate some
factors in housing and equipment which might influence how they
used their time. A comparison was made between homemakers
with two pre-school age children and homemakers...
Uses of travel time and mode of transportation in selected two-parent,
two-child Oregon households was researched in this study.
The relationship between a number of demographic characteristics
and amounts of travel time as well as mode of transportation was
also examined.
The study used the Oregon data from the Northeast...
Time studies of logging equipment are important to determine
production rates, calculate logging costs and locate operating inefficiencies. However, using present time study techniques, they are also costly and time consuming to complete. This project will develop a new data gathering and storage technique using the HP-75
portable computer to...
Work-study guidelines were developed using field data from thinning sites in the Oregon Cascade Range. Regression of detailed time study and shift-level data predicted harvesting production rates. Statistical analysis showed the relative difference in the discriminating power between shift-level studies versus detailed time studies. Indicator variables tested if there were...

Economic methodology is revisited to address issues in
fishery management, and survival analysis is suggested as an
analytical tool to solve the uncertainty problem in
evolutionary economics. Survival analysis can clarify in
statistical terms the impacts of fishery regulation and
economic and biological changes on the fisherman's final
decisions of...
