The document discusses validity and reliability in research methods. It defines different types of validity like face validity, content validity, construct validity, concurrent validity, and predictive validity. It also discusses how to assess validity through multiple indicators and dimensions. The document also covers reliability and how to increase reliability through retesting, clear question wording, and avoiding errors in data collection and coding. It describes systematic and random errors and how to minimize biases.
1. The document discusses several cases related to recognition of governments and how it impacts a state's ability to sue or claim assets.
2. In Gentini v Venezuela, Italy sued on behalf of its citizen for abuse suffered in Venezuela. The key issue was whether the case was barred by the statute of limitations.
3. In TAAG v Ronair, a state-owned airline from Angola was allowed to sue in US courts despite Angola not being recognized, because the US executive did not object.
This document discusses key concepts in operationalizing variables and measuring concepts for quantitative research, including:
1) Operationalization is how abstract concepts are made observable and measurable by defining them as concrete variables. Clear definitions are important for replication and creating reliable knowledge.
2) When operationalizing, variables should measure the concept directly and not be causes, consequences, or correlates of the concept.
3) Variables can be nominal, ordinal, or interval/ratio level, depending on whether their categories are mutually exclusive, ordered, or have equal intervals. This affects how they can be analyzed.
4) Validity refers to how well a variable truly measures its intended concept, while reliability is the consistency of measurements over
- Individuals have some rights under international law but are more like objects dominated by states. States are responsible for protecting the rights of their nationals.
- An alien is a national of one country present in another country's territory and has certain international law rights, but relies on their home state for protection.
- A stateless person has no state to appeal to for protection and was theoretically vulnerable to oppression without international legal protections.
The document discusses recoding and creating variables and indices in SPSS. It provides examples of recoding variables like age, political support and province into different categories. It explains how to recode variables using the Transform and Recode functions. It also discusses how to create new variables using the "IF" statement. The document outlines how to create indices by combining multiple variables measuring a concept. It provides steps for creating an index in SPSS and checking its reliability using Cronbach's alpha.
This document discusses causal modeling and how to establish causal relationships between variables. It provides examples of different types of causal models, including an intervening variable model and a source of spuriousness model. Guidelines are given for including key elements in a causal model such as labeling variables, indicating the direction of relationships, and incorporating intervening or antecedent variables from the literature. The document also demonstrates how to construct causal models using Microsoft Word.

The document discusses different theories and modes of recognition of states and governments in international law. It outlines two main theories:
1) The constitutive theory holds that a state or government is created by the acceptance and recognition of other states or powers.
2) The declaratory theory argues that recognition merely acknowledges what already exists as a state, rather than creating it.
It also discusses explicit recognition through formal acts like sending a telegram, and implicit recognition through behavior like entering treaties. Several cases are referenced that demonstrate how recognition affects whether courts will uphold acts of foreign states or allow them to sue.

Dokumen tersebut menjelaskan arti dari sembilan nama Allah yaitu Al-'Aziiz, Al-Ghaffar, Al-Baasith, An-Naafi’, Ar-Ra’uuf, Al-Barr, Al-Fattaah, Al-'Adl, dan Al-Qayyuum beserta contoh perilaku yang dapat diteladani dari setiap nama.
The document summarizes several legal cases regarding property rights and a government's standing in court when it is unrecognized or has had a change in recognition status:
1) Transfers of property by a recognized government will be upheld, while those by an unrecognized government will not. Once recognized, a government's acts are retroactively validated.
2) Unrecognized governments' acts only have effect within their own territory and for their own nationals.
3) An unrecognized government has immunity from suit regarding property in its territory if there is a de facto government in control.
4) An unrecognized government lacks standing to sue in another state's courts due to lack of comity without recognition
- Univariate analysis refers to analyzing one variable at a time using statistical measures like proportions, percentages, means, medians, and modes to describe data.
- These measures provide a "snapshot" of a variable through tools like frequency tables and charts to understand patterns and the distribution of cases.
- Measures of central tendency like the mean, median and mode indicate typical or average values, while measures of dispersion like the standard deviation and range indicate how spread out or varied the data are around central values.
The document discusses concepts, operationalization, and measurement in quantitative research. It defines concepts as abstract ideas developed from theory, while variables are concrete and specific measures that allow concepts to be observed and measured in the real world. Operationalizing concepts involves defining variables that capture the dimensions of the concepts. Measures should avoid causes, consequences, and correlates, and instead directly assess the concept. The levels of measurement are nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio. Validity and reliability are also discussed, where validity refers to accurately measuring concepts and reliability means consistency across repeated measures.
The document discusses different types of state succession including universal succession, partial succession, and the formation of new states.
Universal succession occurs when one state completely takes over another state, absorbing all its rights and obligations. Partial succession happens when part of a state's territory is absorbed by another, with both states continuing to exist but with changed responsibilities. When new states form, they generally inherit the old boundaries but are not bound by all treaties of the predecessor state. The allocation of debt, treaties, and nationality are complex issues that must be negotiated in cases of state succession.
The document discusses the history and evolution of chocolate production. It details how cocoa beans are harvested and fermented before being dried, roasted, and ground into chocolate liquor. The liquor is then further processed through conching and tempering to produce smooth chocolate for consumption.
This document discusses the development of a new type of battery that could revolutionize energy storage.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
