This section presents abstracts of various research papers published in the September 1, 1978 issue of the journal Quality and Quantity. In the research paper entitled "Spectral decomposition of Economic Time Series by the Method of Eigenvectors," author Alexander Basilevsky describes applications of eigenvector analysis, which is used to decompose economic time series into trend, cycle, and seasonal components. In the research paper "Latent Probability Models With Direct Effects Between Indicators," it has been argued that latent probability or latent structure analysis can be used for the exploration of models in which a complex mixture of both latent and manifest variables appear. After stating the basic principles of the latent probability models, some simple models are presented to show how these basic principles can be extended to take these direct effects into account. The first stages in the intellectual biography of social scientist Paul F. Lazarsfeld are considered, in the research paper entitled "Paul F. Lazarsfeld: A Link Between American and European Methodology."
