Assessmentof Electric FieldDistributionin AnisotropicCorticalandSubcortical Regions Under the Influenceof tDCS

The focus of this study is to estimate the contribution of regional anisotropic conductivity on the spatial distribution of an induced electric field across gray matter (GM), white matter (WM), and subcortical regions under transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). The assessment was conducted using a passive high-resolution finite element head model with inhomogeneous and variable anisot...

Driving Under the (Cellular) Inuence

Previous research in the laboratory and by epidemiologists has compared the danger of cell phone use while driving to that of illicit levels of alcohol. This paper investigates the causal link between driver cell phone use and crash rates by exploiting a natural experiment— the discontinuity in marginal pricing at 9pm on weekdays from 2002 to 2005 when cellular plans transitioned from “peak”to ...

در این پژوهش به بررسی اثر افزایش ترافیک بر روی تعداد تصادفات پرداخته شده است. به این منظور 30 تقاطع در شهر تهران بطور تصادفی انتخاب گردید و تعداد تصادفات ماهیانه در این تقاطعات در طول سالهای 89-90 از سازمان کنترل ترافیک شهر تهران استخراج گردید و با استفاده از مدل داده های تابلویی و نرم افزار eviews مدل خطی و درجه دوم تخمین زده شد و در نهایت این نتیجه حاصل شد که تقاطعات پر ترافیک تر تعداد تصادفا...

Call Likelihood. Beyond the primary data on callers from moving vehicles, two additional datasets of calls con…rm the price sensitivity of a broader population of cellular callers that extends beyond drivers. First, complete logs of cell phone activity for approximately 65 students and faculty over the academic years from 2004 and 2005 was obtained from the Reality Mining Project at the MIT Med...
