dc.description.abstract | Scope of Study: Analysis of variance was made on four factors and their interactive influence on population growth or decline. This study was for the 1958-1959 decade and included the 193 towns and cities in State Economic Arena 1, 2, and 4, the twenty-eight counties in Western Oklahoma. The four variables included in the study were: Percent of total population in town or city under 15 years of age in 1950; percent of total population in town or city 65 years of age and over in 1950; distance to another city of 2,500 population or more in 1950; and type of read through town in 1950. An "F" test was run on a total of twenty-seven independent variables and their selected interaction terms. | |
dc.description.abstract | Findings and Conclusions: The analysis indicates that none of the four factors used in the study is significant in explaining trends of Western Oklahoma towns and cities during the 1950-1960 census decade. | |
