Estimating the density of ethnic minorities and aged people in Berlin: multivariate kernel density estimation applied to sensitive geo-referenced administrative data protected via measurement error
No full textModern systems of official statistics require the timely estimation of area-specific densities of subpopulations. Ideally estimates should be based on precise geocoded information, which is not available because of confidentiality constraints. One approach for ensuring confidentiality is by rounding the geoco-ordinates. We propose multivariate non-parametric kernel density estimation that reverses the rounding process by using a measurement error model. The methodology is applied to the Berlin register of residents for deriving density estimates of ethnic minorities and aged people. Estimates are used for identifying areas with a need for new advisory centres for migrants and infrastructure for older people

Switching between different non-hierarchical administrative areas via simulated geo-coordinates: a case study for student residents in Berlin
No full textThe transformation of area aggregates between non-hierarchical area systems (administrative areas) is a standard problem in official statistics. For this problem, we present a proposal which is based on kernel density estimates. The approach applies a modification of a stochastic expectation maximization algorithm, which was proposed in the literature for the transformation of totals on rectangular areas to kernel density estimates. As a by-product of the routine, one obtains simulated geo-coordinates for each unit. With the help of these geo-coordinates, it is possible to calculate case numbers for any area system of interest. The proposed method is evaluated in a design-based simulation based on a close-to-reality, simulated data set with known exact geo-coordinates. In the empirical part, the method is applied to student resident figures from Berlin, Germany. These are known only at the level of ZIP codes, but they are needed for smaller administrative planning districts. Results for (a) student concentration areas and (b) temporal changes in the student residential areas between 2005 and 2015 are presented and discussed.</p
Presenting the Compendium Isotoporum Medii Aevi, a Multi-Isotope Database for Medieval Europe
No full textHere we present the Compendium Isotoporum Medii Aevi (CIMA), an open-access database gathering more than 50,000 isotopic measurements for bioarchaeological samples located within Europe and its margins, and dating between 500 and 1500 CE. This multi-isotope (δ(13)C, δ(15)N, δ(34)S, δ(18)O, and (87)Sr/(86)Sr) archive of measurements on human, animal, and plant archaeological remains also includes a variety of supporting information that offer, for instance, a taxonomic characterization of the samples, their location, and chronology, in addition to data on social, religious, and political contexts. Such a dataset can be used to identify data gaps for future research and to address multiple research questions, including those related with studies on medieval human lifeways (i.e. human subsistence, spatial mobility), characterization of paleo-environmental and -climatic conditions, and on plant and animal agricultural management practices. Brief examples of such applications are given here and we also discuss how the integration of large volumes of isotopic data with other types of archaeological and historical data can improve our knowledge of medieval Europe

No full textPRESENTING THE COMPENDIUM ISOTOPORUM MEDII AEVI (CIMA) AND BAYESIAN CASE STUDIES
No full textThe Compendium Isotoporum Medii Aevi (CIMA) gathers more than 50,000 isotopic measurements for bioarchaeological samples in Europe and its margins dating between AD 500–1500. This volume of isotopic data, together with collected supporting information, offers multiple research opportunities. This is illustrated here using novel Bayesian modeling methods on selected case studies to reconstruct medieval human lifeways (i.e. human subsistence, spatial mobility), animal management practices, and paleo-environmental conditions. We also discuss how the integration of isotopic data with other types of archaeological and historical data can improve our knowledge of historical developments throughout medieval Europe

No full textDie Relevanz von Schulleitung für die Schulentwicklung sowie für die Leistungen von Schülerinnen und Schülern wird inzwischen international wie national konstatiert. Zwar liegen in Deutschland vereinzelt empirische Studien zum Schulleitungshandeln vor, jedoch fehlen bislang umfassende Befunde zu ihren Karrieren. So sind Fragen dazu, was das Amt der Schulleitung für Lehrpersonen attraktiv macht, warum Schulleitungen diese Position ergreifen und welche Gründe gegen einen Verbleib im Amt sprechen im deutschsprachigen Raum unzureichend erforscht. Dies ist vor dem Hintergrund eines zunehmenden Mangels an qualifizierten Bewerbungen für das Amt und angesichts recht häufiger Schulleitungswechsel von besonderer Brisanz. Das Projekt wirft daher die Frage auf, was das Amt der Schulleitung (un)attraktiv macht und welche Karrieremotive und Arbeitsplatzwechselabsichten Schulleitungen haben. Es nimmt dabei eine Vielzahl individueller und struktureller Bedingungsfaktoren in den Blick. Dabei werden auch die Rolle von Unterstützungsangeboten (z.B. Mentoring) und von Qualifizierungsmaßnahmen (Professionalisierung) berücksichtigt. Darüber hinaus wird untersucht, wie diese Faktoren mit dem doppelten Anspruch an Schulleitungen zusammenhängen, Schulen in der Verwaltung stabil und effizient zu führen sowie gleichermaßen Schulen anpassungsfähig und flexibel durch Schulentwicklung zu gestalten (Perspektive der Ambidextrie). Grundlage der Studie ist ein für Deutschland repräsentativer Datensatz (n = 405) zu Schulleitungen an allgemeinbildenden Schulen, der über den Felddienstleister forsa GmbH im Rahmen einer Online-Befragung erhoben wurde. Das Projekt nutzt ein Messwiederholungsdesign, um die teilnehmenden Schulleitungen im Abstand von mehreren Jahren wiederholt zu befragen. Es handelt sich um ein Kooperationsprojekt zwischen Prof. Dr. Colin Cramer und Dr. Jana Groß Ophoff (Tübingen), PD Dr. Marcus Pietsch (Lüneburg) und Prof. Dr. Pierre Tulowitzki (Windisch, Schweiz)
