THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT'S EFFECTS ON PATIENTS, PROVIDERS, AND THE ECONOMY: WHAT WE'VE LEARNED SO FAR
(Wiley, 2019)© 2019 by the Association for Public Policy Analysis and Management As we approach the tenth anniversary of the passage of the Affordable Care Act, it is important to reflect on what has been learned about the impacts of ... -
Affordable Housing, Disasters, and Social Equity: LIHTC as a Tool for Preparedness and Recovery
(Informa UK Limited, 2020-01)Problem, research strategy, and findings: The Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) is the most common financing mechanism for subsidized housing production in America. We investigate how and to what extent states are ... -
Aflatoxin B[subscript 1]-DNA adduct formation and mutagenicity in livers of neonatal female B6C3F1 mice
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2011-04)Exposure to genotoxic chemicals at a young age increases cancer incidence later in life. Aflatoxin B[subscript 1] (AFB[subscript 1]) is a potent genotoxin that induces hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in many animal species ... -
Africa’s move from raw material exports toward mineral value addition: Historical background and implications
(Springer International Publishing, 2023-05-16)Abstract For the last 500 years, the West has mapped Africa as a source of raw materials, disrupted vibrant African value addition, and arrogated itself as the place where industrial revolutions (value ... -
AFRL's demonstration and science experiments (DSX) mission
(The International Society for Optical Engineering, 2009-09)The Air Force Research Laboratory, Space Vehicles Directorate (AFRL/RV) has developed the Demonstration and Science Experiments (DSX) mission to research technologies needed to significantly advance Department of Defense ... -
After Airline Deregulation and Alfred E. Kahn
(American Economic Association, 2012-05)Among Alfred E. "Fred" Kahn's many accomplishments, none is better remembered than his pivotal role in deregulation of the US airline industry. Kahn's commitment to marry core microeconomic principles with institutional ... -
After Midnight: A Regression Discontinuity Design in Length of Postpartum Hospital Stays
(American Economic Association, 2011-08)Estimates of moral hazard in health insurance markets can be confounded by adverse selection. This paper considers a plausibly exogenous source of variation in insurance coverage for childbirth in California. We find that ... -

Afterpulsing and instability in superconducting nanowire avalanche photodetectors
(American Physical Society, 2012-03)We investigated the reset time of superconducting nanowire avalanche photodetectors (SNAPs) based on 30 nm wide nanowires. We studied the dependence of the reset time of SNAPs on the device inductance and discovered that ... -

Against a unified treatment of obligatory presupposition trigger effects
(Linguistic Society of America, 2017)<jats:p>This paper examines bi-sentential sequences where additive presupposition triggers (e.g. too, again) seem to be obligatory in the second sentence. We present linguistic and experimental evidence against treating ... -
Against preservation
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2019-07)Bradley (2000) offers a quick and convincing argument that no Boolean semantic theory for conditionals can validate a very natural principle concerning the relationship between credences and conditionals. We argue that ... -
Against Taking Linguistic Diversity at "Face Value"
(Cambridge University Press, 2009-10)Evans & Levinson (E&L)advocate taking linguistic diversity at "face value". Their argument consists of a list of diverse phenomena, and the assertion that no non-vacuous theory could possibly uncover a meaningful unity ... -
Against understanding (as a condition on explanation)
(Oxford University Press, 2018)The idea that “explanation is that which produces understanding” is commonly accepted and often used to evaluate theories of explanation. But it cannot be used for this purpose. For the claim either means that knowing the ... -
Age and cross-cultural comparison of drivers' cognitive workload and performance in simulated urban driving
(Springer Science + Business Media B.V., 2010-08)Driving demands significant psychomotor attention and requires even more when drivers are engaged in secondary tasks that increase cognitive workload and divert attention. It is well established that age influences driving ... -
Age and High-Growth Entrepreneurship
(American Economic Association, 2020-03)Many observers, and many investors, believe that young people are especially likely to produce the most successful new firms. Integrating administrative data on firms, workers, and owners, we study start-ups systematically ... -

(American Astronomical Society, 2009-04)2MASS J03202839–0446358AB is a recently identified, late-type M dwarf/T dwarf spectroscopic binary system for which both the radial velocity orbit for the primary and spectral types for both components have been determined. ... -
Age dating of an early Milky Way merger via asteroseismology of the naked-eye star ν Indi
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-01)Over the course of its history, the Milky Way has ingested multiple smaller satellite galaxies1. Although these accreted stellar populations can be forensically identified as kinematically distinct structures within the ... -
