Read the "Marketing Research in Action" case analysis "What You Can Learn for a Customer Loyalty Index?"
Exercise-
1. In your judgment, what level of scale design would be the most appropriate in creating the necessary scale measurement for collecting primary data on each construct?
2. For each construct, design an example of the actual scale measurement that could be used by Burke, Inc., to collect the data.
3. What are several weakness associated with how Burke, Inc., measured its Secure Customer Index (SCI)? Make sure you clearly each weakens and explain why you feel it is a weakness.
4. If you were the lead researcher, what type of scale measurement would you have used to collect the needed data for calculating SCI? Why? Write some scale measurements you would use.
5. Do you agree or disagree with the Burke, Inc., interpretation of the value they provide their clients using the Customer Loyalty Index? Support your response.

Determining the human resource testing
: Although controversial and the subject of some recent law suits (e.g., Satchell et al. vs. FedEx Express), some human resource departments administer standard IQ tests to all employees. The Stanford Binet test scores are well modeled by a Normal m..

How much would you predict their mileages to differ
: Compute the least-squares line for predicting mileage from weight. If two trucks differ in weight by 5 tons, by how much would you predict their mileages to differ?

Find a non-linear function
: Find a non-linear function g : R2 → R such that the contour g(x, y) = 2 is the first line while the contour g(x, y) = 8 is the second line.

Mutual fund returns
: In the last quarter of 2007, a group of 64 mutual funds had a mean return of 2.4% with a standard deviation of 5.6%. If a Normal model can be used to model them, what percent of the funds would you expect to be in each region?

Determining the probabilities or percentages
: For Exercises 21-28, use the 68-95-99.7 Rule to approximate the probabilities rather than using technology to find the values more precisely. Answers given for probabilities or percentages from Exercise 29 and on assume that a calculator or softwa..

How tall must a man be so that we would predict
: Assume that the least-squares line for predicting forearm length (y) from height (x) is y = -0.2967 + 0.2738x . Both forearm length and height are measured in inches in this equation. Predict the forearm length of a man whose height is 70 in.

How much do you predict their tensile strengths to differ
: In a study of the relationship between the Brinell hardness (x) and tensile strength in ksi (y) of specimens of cold drawn copper, the least-squares line was y = -196.32 + 2.42x . Predict the tensile strength of a specimen whose Brinell hardness..
