Rare earth minerals contain unique chemical and physical properties such as lanthanum, are found in small concentrations, need extensive precise processes to separate, and are critical components of modern technologies such as laser guidance systems, personal electronics such as Blackberries, and satellites. The U.S. has some rare earth resources, but is heavily dependent on access to them from from Afghanistan, Bolivia, and China. Losing access to these resources would have significant economic, military, and political implications. This presentation will highlight government information resources on rare earth minerals from agencies such as the Department of Energy (DOE), Department of Defense (DOD), …

A research framework, or construct, provides researchers with generally accepted guidelines to organize scholarly efforts and foster methodological rigor. Over time, many qualitative research frameworks have become fully vetted and recognized, including action research, grounded theory, and phenomenology, among many others. The Policy Research Construct has also evolved over the last decade into a refined framework for use in qualitative and mixed method studies. This paper continues to define the PRC and includes a meta-review of multiple applications of the PRC to examine policy-related research questions, as well as organizational change and program effectiveness research.

Frequent Flier Perceptions And Air Travel Satisfaction: The Airline Passenger Survey 2012, Erin E. Bowen, Brent D. Bowen, Dean E. Headley
Airline Passenger Surveys
The Airline Passenger Survey is an annual survey of frequent fliers who visit the web site for the Airline Quality Rating. Since 2009, over 4,000 passengers have responded to researchers’ request to provide a consumer perspective on the quality of today’s air travel experience. Airline Quality Rating researchers at Purdue University and Wichita State University compare the consumer experience of air travel with the objective rankings of the Airline Quality Rating (www.airlinequalityrating.com). These detailed findings are provided publicly and periodically released to the media.

Development Of A Model Of Airline Consumer Satisfaction, Clay Wildt, Jennifer Kirschner
Airline Passenger Surveys
Historic research regarding the major commercial air carriers in the US have been based on subjective perceptions, satisfaction, and attitudes. Building upon 21 years of work with the National Airline Quality Rating, the present study attempts to move beyond basic descriptive information of air travelers to identify patterns and relationships in the way consumers view this risky, high technology environment. Development of such a model allows key players the ability to improve their understanding of the prime drivers and perceptions of passenger behavior. This quantitative model plays an important role in determining needs and priorities while outlining consequences of such …
