    QUANTITATIVE MEDIATION & MODERATION ANALYSIS

    One of the most advanced quantitative methods that can be applied to public administration data is mediation and moderation: 


    1)  What are the advantages of applying this analysis? 

    2) (a)How do an inadequate design, (b)a flawed analysis strategy, and (c)lack of attention to assumptions affect the use of mediation and moderation analysis? 

    3) How does the researcher’s lack of theoretical framework concerning variables affect the application of mediation and moderation analysis?

      1. Run descriptive statistics (frequency tables only) on the demographic variables (first eight variables).
      2. For variables Q 1 through Q 71, perform frequency tables AND run descriptive statistics: mean, median, and standard deviation.
      3. Copy and paste all tables into a Word document and format the results in APA. 

      Case Study II – Retirement Planning Services

       

      Numerous problems in the area of finance can be addressed by using the various
      optimization techniques. These problems often involve attempting to maximize the return
      on an investment while meeting certain cash-flow requirements and risk constraints.
      Alternatively, we may want to minimize the risk on an investment while maintaining a
      certain level of return. We’ll consider one such problem here and discuss several other
      financial engineering problems throughout this text. Brian Givens is a financial analyst for
      Retirement Planning Services, Inc., who specializes in designing retirement income
      portfolios for retirees using corporate bonds. He has just completed a consultation with a
      client who expects to have $750,000 in liquid assets to invest when she retires next month.
      Brian and his client agreed to consider upcoming bond issues from the following six
      companies:
      The column labeled “Return” in this table represents the expected annual yield on each
      bond, the column labeled “Years to Maturity” indicates the length of time over which the
      bonds will be payable, and the column labeled “Rating” indicates an independent
      underwriter’s assessment of the quality or risk associated with each issue. Brian believes
      that all of the companies are relatively safe investments. However, to protect his client’s
      income, Brian and his client agreed that no more than 25% of her money should be invested
      in any one investment and at least half of her money should be invested in long-term bonds
      that mature in 10 or more years. Also, even though DynaStar, Eagle Vision, and OptiPro
      offer the highest returns, it was agreed that no more than 35% of the money should be
      invested in these bonds because they also represent the highest risks (that is, they were
      rated lower than “very good”). Brian needs to determine how to allocate his client’s
      investments to maximize her income while meeting their agreed upon investment
      restrictions.
