Neuroimaging Genetics Edited by Bigos et al. Oxford University Press

Over the last two decades, the association of genetic variation and brain function has received considerable attention. It is well established that most psychiatric and neurological diseases have a substantial genetic contribution. Therefore, investigating the influences of genotypes on brain structure and function should lead to a better understanding of the neurobiology of physiological brain...

Wesleyan Economic s Working

A customary gender division of labor is one in which women and men are directed towards certain tasks and/or explicitly prohibited from performing others. We offer an explanation as to why the gender division of labor is so often enforced by custom, and why customary gender divisions of labor generally involve both direction and prohibition. Our model builds on the literature on the marital hol...

Partially Ordered Monoids Generated by Operators H , S , P , and by H , S , P f Are

Let I , H , S , P , Pf be the usual operators on classes of algebras of the same type (Pf for filtered products). The partially ordered monoid generated by the operators H , S , P with respect to composition of operators, I as an identity element, and a natural ordering between operators is described by Pigozzi (Algebra Universalis 2 (1972), 346–353). Let us denote by M = 〈H,S, P 〉 and by Mf = ...
