More or less help? A longitudinal investigation of positive and negative consequences of divorce for informal helping
No full textContains fulltext :
290839.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access)As divorce rates have risen, scholars have expressed concern that a breakdown of traditional family bonds might negatively influence community life. This study examines the impact of divorce on one form of community involvement, namely informal community helping, and whether this impact depends on household income, having adult children and being full-time employed. We hypothesized that informal community helping can both increase and decrease after divorce and that the impact of divorce is smaller for people with higher household income, adult children or a full-time job. Utilizing longitudinal data from the first four waves (1986-2002) of the Americans' Changing Lives panel study (N = 6,185), this study employed fixed-effects regression models. These demonstrated that people did not change their informal community helping after divorce. The impact of divorce did not depend on household income or full-time employment, but people with adult children increased their informal community helping after divorce less than average.16 p
Mapping the truth about mining: Corporate cartography and its contestations

297575.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access)Conflicts over extractive projects often hinge on questions about which and whose knowledge counts, and whose realities and knowledges are ignored in decision-making. This has led scholars to scrutinize 'corporate science' and the ways in which mining corporations produce forms of ignorance through the deliberate distortion and manipulation of knowledge on the socio-environmental impacts of mining. In this article, I examine these dynamics through a case study of the expansion of mining in the Ecuadorian Amazon, with a focus on the role of corporate cartography and counter-mapping. Based on an analysis of the 'lines of becoming' of various maps and ethnographic engagements with map-makers, I argue that our inquiry into corporate science and ignorance should go beyond the notion of 'ignorance as strategy'. To fully understand the production of ignorance in the extractive industries, we should look more comprehensively at the ways of knowing and unknowing that have become customary in this sector. Drawing on power/knowledge-ignorance and the work of decolonial critical geographers, I show that a focus on the rather mundane and standardized practices and procedures enriches our understanding of the way in which corporate actors - and in particular their consultants - produce and reproduce colonial forms of (un)knowing.27 p

Decay Rates of Maternal Tetanus, Diphtheria, and Pertussis Antibody Levels in Early and Moderate-to-Late Preterm and Term Infants at Birth and at Two Months.

315832.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access)A post hoc analysis of maternally derived antibodies at birth and age 2 months following second trimester maternal Tdap vaccination between 20 and 24 weeks' gestational age (GA) showed a faster decay rate of Tdap-related immunoglobulin G in early preterms born before 32 weeks' GA compared with moderate-to-late preterms and full-terms. This is different from previous studies and merits further research.01 januari 202
Optimizing the Accuracy and Precision of the Minimal Detectable Change Statistic: Secondary Analysis of Test-retest Data From the NIH Toolbox Study.
No full textContains fulltext :
317425.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access)OBJECTIVE: The minimal detectable change (MDC) statistic is often used by clinicians to monitor change in patients. However, the way in which the MDC is traditionally calculated might be suboptimal in terms of accuracy and precision, potentially resulting in erroneous clinical decisions. This study compared the performance of the MDC statistic as traditionally calculated to that of 2 regression-based alternatives. METHODS: This analysis used test-retest data from adults who participated in usual walking speed (n = 169) or grip strength (n = 178) assessments as part of the NIH Toolbox Study. Three approaches for MDC calculation were compared: the traditional approach (MDCTrad), simple linear regression (MDCSLR), and generalized additive models for location, scale, and shape (MDCGAMLSS). These approaches were compared in terms of accuracy and precision across all levels of measurement and separately for initial test values above and below the median. RESULTS: Each of the 3 approaches accurately modeled detectable change thresholds when performance was averaged across all test values. However, MDCTrad demonstrated inaccuracies when performance was considered separately for initial test values below or above the median. For walking speed, average precision improved by 12% with MDCSLR and 16% with MDCGAMLSS, compared to MDCTrad. For grip strength, average precision improved by 3% with MDCSLR and 21% with MDCGAMLSS, compared to MDCTrad. CONCLUSION: MDCSLR and MDCGAMLSS appeared to more accurately and precisely model detectable change thresholds, compared to MDCTRAD. In general, MDCGAMLSS demonstrated the best overall performance in this within-sample analysis. IMPACT: Improved precision and accuracy in detectable change thresholds for walking speed or grip strength might facilitate clinicians' ability to promptly detect a decline in function and intervene and to confidently detect improvements in function over time. LAY SUMMARY: This study compared the performance of the MDC statistic as traditionally calculated to 2 regression-based alternatives
