how do we work and what does it all mean. Regardless of how you look at it, issues such as gender equality are still prominent ones today, and we are far from an equilibrium on point, as is the case with segregation issues and racism as well. ...
School choice Segregation 1. Introduction Japan is one of the most homogeneous countries in the world. Japanese is the uniform, universally used language in the country, and the education system is based on high-quality public and private schools. The private education sector has some curiosities....
Race/ ethnicity has been examined as a relevant factor in mode choice, especially in the context of residential segregation and the spatial mismatch literature (Taylor and Ong 1995; Stoll 2005). Gender has been examined as an influence on travel behavior in relation to such factors as safety ...
School choice programs create the ideal situation for Black-white segregation. Ananalysis of high schools in more than 100 of the largest U.S. public school districtsfound a positive correlation between districts that offer school choice programs and the degree to which their high schools were rac...
In most open enrollment cases, parents are responsible for transportation to the new public school of choice, or at least for getting their student to a regular bus stop along the school’s route. Low-income families or those participating in a court-approved desegregation planmay be reimbursed...
the utility function of DCG can also be extended in predicting specific mobility behaviours. For example, when predicting the mobility fluxes in a multi-modal transportation system, the logarithmic (or linear logarithmic) function of distance is usually used to calculate the fixed travel cost between...
Attention facilitates behavior by enhancing perceptual sensitivity (sensory processing) and choice bias (decisional weighting) for attended information. Whether distinct neural substrates mediate these distinct components of attention remains unknown. We
Itmakes it easier for students to make a public school transfer by lifting the cap on the number of transfers each school district allows (unless a desegregation order is in place). Just over22,000Arkansas students currently use this option to find the best fit for them within the public ...
6 Controlled choice, 7 Nash equilibria under priority matching mechanisms, we show that our main result can be generalized to cases where schools behave strategically, where there are controlled choice constraints to prevent ethnic segregation, and to a general class of priority matching mechanisms. ...
However, these relationships lost significance after removing inter-colony and inter-annual variation in the traits, suggesting that they were primarily driven by spatial and temporal segregation of individuals. We also found support for assortative mating by the size, but not coloration, of two ...
