Issues and Importance of "Good" Starting Points for Nonlinear Regression for Mathematical Modeling with Maple: Basic Model Fitting to Make Predictions with Oscillating Data

Peer reviewed

Direct link

Fox, William – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2012

The purpose of our modeling effort is to predict future outcomes. We assume the data collected are both accurate and relatively precise. For our oscillating data, we examined several mathematical modeling forms for predictions. We also examined both ignoring the oscillations as an important feature and including the oscillations as an important…

The Effect of Undergraduate Student Loans on the Decision to Pursue Postbaccalaureate Study.

Peer reviewed

Weiler, William C. – Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, 1991

The effect of indebtedness (undergraduate loan burden) after college graduation on the decision to pursue a graduate degree was studied for 899 individuals from the High School and Beyond study. Level of undergraduate debt was not a significant choice determinant. Some limitations of the methodology are discussed. (SLD)
