Laurence Shames The More Factor Analysis

Technology is evolving more and more each day. If the number of people using technology is high now, what makes us think it won’t be higher later? In the short story “The Pedestrian” one person out of a population of three million walks the streets at night while everyone is inside their homes glued to technology. Leonard is arrested by a robotic police car and taken to a psychiatric center for his “regressive” tendencies. Bradbury is correct the way he talks about technology. People need to have limits to technology because too many people are addicted to it, and the numbers will keep increasing as technology gets better.

Due to the flatteners, countries such as: China, India, Russia, Eastern Europe, Latin America, and Central Asia now actively participate in a flattened world. This is shaping global economics and politics. Furthermore, this has presented a challenge to America to build not only a strong state, but strong individuals as well. With that being said there are three gaps creating a crisis for Americans. The first gap is the “ambition gap”. According to the author, “Americans have gotten too lazy” compared to their Indian and Chinese counterparts. The second is a serious numbers gap building, meaning we are not producing enough engineers and scientists. In the past America would import Indian and Chinese engineers and scientist; however, because the world is flat they are competing from home. The final gap is an education gap. Often times CEO outsource in an effort to save on company cost by paying lower salaries and to get better-skilled and more productive workers.

We are quite a comfortable generation. We are blessed with insurmountable advances in technology and a surplus of wealth that cushions us from the rest of the world. Yet, innovations

Think about how much our world has changed from the past. People can now use cell phones to communicate all around the world and people can also watch televisions at their homes for entertainment. These technological advances and additions to our lives have made people happier and have also impacted our lives greatly. People all around the world rely on technology so much that technology is used in everything from a machine making a car to helping humanity find a cure for a deadly disease. Though technology is not a lousy thing, people do not realize the consequences these technologies can cause humanity in the future. They have already brought unemployment to many people and in the future, these technologies could be used in everything we

But as time and technology grows we learn that the vision starts to become less vivid. Instead of advancing our workforce it’s doing more of decreasing our high class, where it’s taking the most educated people out of business. In the article itself it starts out saying “software has also been replacing engineers” which comes to sure that technology is getting so much control of our work field it has even started to control its own

If American wants to stay a modernized country and stay ahead of the others they would need to stay ahead of the technology that is not the case with high

culture dictates that we absolutely must technologically progress for it is the only significant way

Whenever you speak to an elderly person they can tell you all kinds of stories about “the good ol’days”. I can remember gathering around my grandfather’s rocking chair with all of my cousins during the holidays and listening to him tell the same stories he told every year. Stories of how things were when he was a kid and how kids today don’t even know how easy they have it. I remember talking with my cousins and saying how that was never going to be us and at that time we had no idea life as we knew it would change so rapidly. I can tell you if that man was still alive today he would be just as blown away as I am at how far technology has advanced. In such a short amount of time my generation has watched the generation’s following us be drastically changed all due to the advances of technology. Watching how children today just aren’t being raised the way the way we had or even enjoying the same things we did as kids. It is almost scary especially when you realize the lack of respect and morals kids today have. I am sure all of this is due to being overly influenced by social media and the internet. With that being said there is no argument’s that the technological advances over the last 10 years have been nothing short of amazing, but are these advances helping our society to grow and prosper or are they damaging and dumbing down our future generations?

This video was particularly interesting re; the rapid expansion of technology across the globe. One key fact that stood out was more data was created this year than in the previous 5000 years combined. A main cause of this increased demand for technology is the exponentially growing population. The video points out that if you are “1 in a million” in China, that there are actually 1,300 people that are exactly the same as you. India has more students with higher IQ’s than the U.S. has students. Technology is constantly evolving. For example, the top 10 in-demand jobs in 2010 did not exist in 2004. Employees are competing for a chance to fix problems that aren’t broken yet. With this advance technology and global commerce, we are not only competing with our fellow countrymen but literally billions of brilliant minds from around the globe.

In the past years, the United States had not risen enough technology, technology always changes with the time. Past few years, technology has risen because of the development. Technology makes life easy to live. Using the Internet is necessary now; if the Internet companies off the service for one day, whole the United States would be in the problem. Technology is very useful in the big Industries for business. Using equipment in the Industries with technology, it makes very easy for them to produce production more than hiring workers. Nowadays, every companies thinks that using equipment for spending less money than spending money on workers and take a benefit of it. Furthermore, technology is just not helpful for production; it is very useful for customer

In order to examine the first research question, which focuses on whether the two sets of environmental behaviors are essentially the same or not they are systematically analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis. The foundation of this analysis relies on the fact that environmental behavior may take many forms and that those who are concerned about the environment may engage in some behaviors more so than other forms. This possible difference in engagement may be due to opportunity structures that help or hinder the feasibility of engaging. For example, if one does not have access to a curbside-recycling program, it would follow that the likelihood of engaging in this specific behavior would be lower than someone who did. This is just one

This world is getting more advance every single day. We are always one day closer to the next breakthrough in technology. However, the great minds that design, develop, test, and produce these next steps in technology are not enough to fit the growing need of higher level technology. The lack of engineers will catch up and force most industries in America to leave and look into foreign land to meet their demand of engineers. This will lead to a decrease in our GDP and an increase in unemployment rate all across the country. Efforts are being made to improve our engineering population, and increase their motivation to improve technology and go excel in their fields.

Today’s society has advanced so this past decade. So much to the point we use it at a daily basis. Technology does have it’s perks, but are we getting too dependent on it?

According to Maria& Eva, the factor analysis is a technique in the statistics to observe variability in the correlated variables in terms of lowers number of unobserved variables, which is necessary for factorization (Maria& Eva, 2012). Dehak, Kenn, Dehak, Dumouchel, & Ouellet, further stated that, the factor analysis is useful technique to investigate the relationship between the variables in complex concepts and the main purpose of the factor analysis is to reduce the number of variables associated with the measure and to detect the structures of the relationship between the variables (Dehak, Kenn, Dehak, Dumouchel, & Ouellet, 2011) .

Modernization in the United States has four traits which were identified by Peter Berger in 1977. The first trait was the decline of small, isolated communities. Approximately one hundred years ago there were 40% of Americans living in cities. Today, 80% of the population lives in cities. The next trait is the expansion of personal choice. Most people choose their lifestyles instead of allowing others to make that decision for them. The next trait is the rising amount of diversity in the United States. Interracial couples are more accepted now then it was even 20 years ago. The fourth trait is the orientation toward the future and a
