Nine months post-treatment in a randomized trial in Vietnam, GlobalConsent reduced men’s sexually violent behavior (odds ratio [OR] = 0.71, 95%CI 0.50–1.00) and increased prosocial intervening behavior (OR = 1.51, 1.00–2.28) relative to an attention-control. Evidence regarding optimal implem...
https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jebo.2021.11.015Get rights and contentAbstract We conducted a large-scale survey covering 58 countries and over 100,000 respondents between late March and early April 2020 to study beliefs and attitudes towards citizens’ and governments’ responses at the onset of the...
processes a data cube containing target weather parameters from a preceding and the current time steps:XtandXt+1. It predicts a low-rank multivariate Gaussian distribution (\({{{\rm{N}}}({\Theta }_{q}^{t})\)) similar to the encoder P. Intermediate perturbation vectors are sampled from ...
temperate, sub-tropical and tropical regions, exhibiting immense depth variation, from the intertidal zone to abyssal depths greater than 6000 m17,21. In deep and/or cold-water habitats, coral reefs can play host to highly diverse biological assemblages similar to those of tropical coral reefs9,1...
Several of the sampled clusters in 3 territories were dropped; however, adjustments were made to the weights for the sampled units within those territories to account for the excluded clusters. Therefore, the study results cannot be generalized to the entire population of Ituri, North Kivu, and ...
For most countries in sub-Saharan Africa, improvements were much faster than expected between 2000 and 2017 for children aged 1 to 4 years in particular, with several countries also having more rapid DALY improvement than expected in children younger than 1 year and aged 5 to 9 years. Among ...
It’s important to highlight that Google Trends data is “dynamically sampled”, which means that reported values for the same period can vary depending on when the tool is accessed. In other words, the service may return different rankings and indices for what seems to be an identical query...
Studies calculating these indices for elasmobranch meat are, however, not as widespread as for bony fish, indicating a knowledge gap that requires further attention in order to adequately assess human health risks due to elasmobranch meat consumption. Discrepancies in the establishment and implementation...
By identifying specific areas, where bike-share infrastructure lags in effectiveness and efficiency, the BSAI directs attention to where strategic investments and planning initiatives can achieve substantial improvements in urban mobility. Discussion Implications of results The creation of a comprehensive ...
There are several good arguments that non-SOTA results can also provide valuable contributions and should receive more attention. For example, models that do not improve on SOTA performance metrics might have other benefits, such as better interpretability, lower resource need, lower bias or higher ...
