Logistic Regression Output; About the Authors; BibliographyAs part of an exploration of ways to predict what determines the targets of suicide attacks, RAND conducted a proof-of-principle analysis of whether adding sociocultural, political, economic, and demographic factors would enhance the predictive ability of a methodology that focused on geospatial features. This test case focused on terrorist bombing incidents in Israel, but the findings indicate that the methodology merits further exploration.Rand Corporation monograph series.Suicide bombingsIsraelTerrorismIsraelTerroristsSuicidal behaviorIsraelSuicide bombingsTerrorismTerroristsSuicidal behavior363.325/12Perry Walt L904735Perry Walt L.Naval Research Laboratory (U.S.)RAND Homeland Security and Defense Center.MiFhGGMiFhGGBOOK9910220101303321Predicting suicide attacks2023213UNINA02638nam 2200613 a 450 991077949380332120230802005540.01-60805-401-2(CKB)2550000000107811(EBL)976647(OCoLC)806204701(SSID)ssj0000938556(PQKBManifestationID)11501949(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000938556(PQKBWorkID)10920167(PQKB)11552529(MiAaPQ)EBC976647(Au-PeEL)EBL976647(CaPaEBR)ebr10580509(EXLCZ)99255000000010781120120727d2012 uy 0engurcn|||||||||txtccrHemolymph proteins and functional peptides[electronic resource] recent advances in insects and other arthropods.
