An easily learned scale utilizing a brief acronym (SAD PERSONS), and based on ten major
risk factors, is presented for assessing likelihood of a suicide attempt. A group of medical …

The synthesis of hybrid nanoparticles was conducted by the atom transfer radical polymerization
(ATRP) of styrene and (meth)acrylates from colloidal surfaces. Colloidal initiators were …

In this paper, we examine the predictability of the cross-section of bank stock returns by taking
advantage of the unique set of industry characteristics that prevail in the financial services …

The effect of the chain constraint on the glass‐transition temperature of polystyrene (pS)
was studied in the context of polymer tethering to curved surfaces. The synthesis and …

Pressure drop measurements were made on a variety of dilute solid‐liquid suspension systems
in order to study the effects of particle shape and size, concentration, fluid viscosity, and …

The effective diffusivity of a solute within a pore of comparable size is frequently found to be
less than its value in bulk solution. This phenomenon is known as “hindered” or “restricted” …

Both Savins (70) and Astarita (2) suggested thatdrag reduction by polymer solutions is
caused by viscoelas-ticity. Their conception was of a reduction of turbulent energy dissipation …

The mechanical shear degradation of polydisperse polyisobutene and monodisperse
polystrene in oils of different viscosities in the concentration range of 0.1% to 1% was studied …

This study examines the dynamic interactions among return volatilities, volume, and market
depth for five currency futures markets. We use vector autoregressive analysis (VAR) to …

Using industry and by-line data, we examine the causes of insurance cycles in a vector
autoregressive model. Some of the important findings are summarized below. First, the …
