A STANDARD DEVIATION CONTROL CHART FOR MARSHALL–OLKIN ALPHA POWER INVERSE RAYLEIGH DISTRIBUTION

The conventional SPC charts, including the Shewhart standard deviation chart, are prone to failure due to skewed or heavy-tailed data, resulting in false alarms and an inability to detect shifts in variability. The primary objective of this study is to develop a deviation control chart based on perc...

Popular Participation takes more than an open microphone: Reluctance to Participate in Community Radio Production among the Rural Women in Southwest Nigeria

Advocacy for the establishment of community radio in Africa was driven by many assumptions, one of which was that once the medium of communication was liberally available, community members of all categories would begin to speak truth to power. This study aimed to investigate the extent to which com...
