Theory Of Planned Behavior Model Fit Using Atod Prevention Program Data, Ying Jin
Theory Of Planned Behavior Model Fit Using Atod Prevention Program Data, Ying Jin
All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023
This report is to test the Theory of Planned Behavior (TpB) model fit using the data collected from the ATOD Prevention Program conducted by the Operation Snowball Program from year 2004 to 2007 in Naperville, Illinois. Measurement Model and Structural Equation Modeling are used as principal modeling methods to test internal consistency of assigned measures for each construct and the dependency between constructs respectively. The results show that the ATOD Prevention Program data does not fit the TpB model perfectly. Extra paths should be added to the original theoretical model in order to obtain a satisfactory model fit.
Optimal Candidate Generation In Spatial Co-Location Mining, Zhongshan Lin
Optimal Candidate Generation In Spatial Co-Location Mining, Zhongshan Lin
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Existing spatial co-location algorithms based on levels suffer from generating extra, nonclique candidate instances. Thus, they require cliqueness checking at every level. In this thesis, a novel, spatial co-location mining algorithm that automatically generates co-located spatial features without generating any nonclique candidates at any level is proposed. Subsequently, this algorithm generates fewer candidates than other existing level-wise, co-location algorithms without losing any pertinent information. The benefits of this algorithm have been clearly observed at early stages in the mining process.
