This paper examines whether a chilling effect of restrictive state laws aimed at immigrants creates a barrier to enrollment in the food stamp program (now called the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or SNAP) for U.S.citizen children in low-income immigrant families.This analysis looks at 20 states in the continental United States from 2000
Assignment of Focus Position with Convolutional Neural Networks in Adaptive Lens Based Axial Scanning for Confocal Microscopy
Adaptive lenses offer axial scanning without mechanical translation and thus are promising to replace mechanical-movement-based axial scanning in microscopy.The scan is accomplished by sweeping the applied voltage.However, the relation between the applied voltage and the resulting axial focus position is not unambiguous.Adaptive lenses suffer from
Prevalence and psychosocial factors of aggression among youth
Background: Youth indulgence themselves in various aggressive behaviors leading to significant psychosocial dysfunctions.The present study assesses the prevalence of aggression among youth and to assess the risk factors of aggression among youth.Materials Circular Board and Methods: Anger Data sheet, Resilience Scale and Buss-Perry Aggression Scale
Three-Dimensional Upper Body Kinematics and Inter-articular Kinematic Sequence During a Canoe Polo Throw
Canoe polo is an increasingly popular discipline requiring both kayaking and ball-handling skills.While the kinematics of the upper body during throw has been investigated for several overhead sports, the canoe polo throw has still to be studied.Therefore, the aim of this study is to analyze the canoe polo throw kinematics in terms of angles and in
