A Framework For Developing Marketing Plans For Military To Civilian Technology Transfer, Kenneth R. Hirlinger Jr.

Theses and Dissertations

The Government of the United States, in particular the Department of Defense, invests a significant amount of funding into the development of technology. This technology, as a critical component of its weaponry, allows the United States to maintain a world-wide qualitative superiority over potential adversaries who may have a quantitative advantage. As industry and government continue to downsize, the transfer of technology from the federal government to the private sector becomes important to ensure the industrial base can continue supporting the military. In addition, transferring technology allows the industrial base to gain international competitive advantages and increase the breadth of …

Integrated Marketing Communications And The Role Of Public Relations, Jennifer Lynch

Mahurin Honors College Capstone Experience/Thesis Projects

Integrated Marketing Communications is new and exciting. It's what's happening with communications today. However, as some define IMC in current literature, it cannot be a substitute for public relations, advertising, and marketing. Other definitions, though, seem to be more inclusive of all three functions. IMC combines a number of communication methods, but it is often flawed in scope.

The Effects Of Source And Product Characteristics On Persuasion., Karin Braunsberger

USF St. Petersburg campus Faculty Publications

The purpose of this research was to test the "product and endorser feature congruence hypothesis." Thus, it was tested whether matching source expertise with credence attribute claims and source experience with experience attributes claims has a positive effect on consumers' cognitive responses as well as their attitudes toward the endorser and the ad. These effects were investigated for the following reasons: First, source expertise appears to have a significant impact on persuasion (McGuire 1969) and is distinguishable from source experience (Jacoby, Troutman, Kuss and Mazursky 1986). Thus, these constructs may have differential effects on persuasion. Second, credence and experience attributes …

Positive Price Outlook For Wheat : Implications For Wa Agriculture, Alan Haagensen, Ian Wilkinson

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

After a 40 year period over which wheat prices have dropped by an average of 2.7 per cent annually in real terms, fundamental changes in wheat supply and demand look set to reverse this trend. It is possible that real prices could increase by as much as 4 per cent anually in the medium term.

Alan Haagensen and Ian Wilkinson look at the forecasts for wheat prices and outline the forces that will influence world supply and demands for wheat.
