    Replication Data for: "Oust the Leader, Keep the Regime?: Autocratic Civil-Military Relations and Coup-Behavior in the Tunisian and Egyptian Militaries during the 2011 Arab Spring"

    Abstract: We present a theory for how variation in autocratic civil-military relations affects the type of coups to which autocratic leaders are vulnerable. Dictators rely on alternative strategies of control that involve tensions across two imperatives—governance and coup-prevention. In a Grand Bargain leaders cede prerogatives to the military and compromise on the governance imperative. This insulates them from regime change coups, but still renders them vulnerable to reshuffling coups that result from bargaining failures. Alternatively, political leaders may rely on Containment, in which they marginalize the military. While they make fewer concessions on the governance imperative, when the military has the opportunity to engage in a coup, it is more likely to oust the entire regime, not just reshuffle the leader. We evaluate this theory using within-case process tracing and paired case studies of Tunisia and Egypt, and conduct descriptive quantitative analyses to demonstrate the generalizability of our theory

    Does kinesiology tape increase trunk forward flexion?

    Introduction: non specific lower back pain is a common musculoskeletal disorder in manual labourers due to the strenuous nature of their job. Fear of pain can cause restrictions in trunk movement leading to reduced flexibility. Kinesiology Tape (KT) may be an option for treating low back stiffness. The present study investigated the immediate effect of KT on trunk flexion active range of motion.Method: 34 male participants (mean age ± SD: 42 ± 11), in physically demanding jobs, asymptomatic of pain, with a history of non specific lower back pain were randomly assigned to: 1) KT Intervention (KTI) or 2) KT Placebo (KTP). Trunk flexion data was collected at baseline and immediately following tape application. ANCOVA was used to examine the differences between groups.Results: the KTI group demonstrated a statistically significant gain in Trunk flexion compared with baseline (2.75 cm, P &lt; 0.05). Changes from pre to post treatment for the KTP were not significant (1.57 cm, P = 0.062). No statistically significant differences existed between groups post-treatment (P = 0.218).Conclusion: KTI demonstrates an immediate positive effect on trunk flexion when compared with baseline measurements. However, results suggest that KTI performs no better than a comparable placebo.</p
