  1. Anticipated dwelling use will be associated with number of types of dwellings used in one year (14).Diehl, Michael W. - Architecture as a material correlate of mobility strategies: some implicatio..., 1992 - 2 Variables

    This article investigates a possible association between mobility strategy and dwelling construction. The author tests a broad hypothesis that planned duration of use for a structure is positively associated with the investment costs in building a dwelling. Some operational hypotheses are supported; others are not.

  4. "Agricultural dependence is more likely to be found among societies with a fixed settlement pattern than among societies with a nonfixed or regularly changing settlement pattern" (231)Schaefer, James Michael - Sampling methods, functional associations and galton's problem: a replicativ..., 1971 - 2 Variables

    This study investigates the relationship between agriculture and fixed settlement patterns. The authors intend to examine the effects of sampling strategies and Galton’s problem on empirical findings. Neither of these factors affected the statistical relationship between agriculture and mobility.

  5. Ground plan shape will be associated with settlement permanenceArwen L. Feather - Circular or rectangular ground plans: Some costs and benefits, 1996 - 2 Variables

    In the present study, Feather explores the relationship between floor plan shape and settlement permanence in order to theorize how mobility strategy influences floor plan choice. Feather incorporates the theoretical framework of previous studies by examining how floor plans and building materials vary across mobility and residential strategies, as well as social and political concerns.

  7. Low levels of women's property control will be associated with men's displays of manliness (93).Coltrane, Scott - The micropolitics of gender in nonindustrial societies, 1992 - 2 Variables

    This article presents an analysis of predictors of displays of manliness, women's inferiority, deference to men, and dominance of wives.

  8. Seminomadic people tend to build semicircular dwellings directly on the ground surface (130).Binford, Lewis R. - Mobility, housing, and environment: a comparative study, 1990 - 3 Variables

    This article examines housing, mobility, and subsistence among hunter-gatherers. Several statistical associations are supported. The author uses findings to evaluate the relative complexity of societies from the archaeological record.

  9. Mobility will be associated with using the same material for roof and sides of houses (125).Binford, Lewis R. - Mobility, housing, and environment: a comparative study, 1990 - 2 Variables

    This article examines housing, mobility, and subsistence among hunter-gatherers. Several statistical associations are supported. The author uses findings to evaluate the relative complexity of societies from the archaeological record.

  10. Among foragers, mobility frequency will be negatively associated with technological diversity (23, 33).Shott, Michael - Technological organization and settlement mobility: an ethnographic examination, 1986 - 2 Variables

    This study tests the relationship between mobility and technology among foragers, with the intent of applying findings to the archaeological record. In data analysis, mobility frequency is differentiated from mobility magnitude, and technological diversity is differentiated from technological complexity. Results suggest that mobility frequency is negatively associated with technological diversity while mobility magnitude is negatively associated with technological complexity.
