PURPOSE This study evaluates the extent to which bilingual children produce the same or overlapping responses on tasks assessing semantic skills in each of their languages and whether classification analysis based on monolingual or conceptual scoring can accurately classify the semantic development of typically developing (TD) bilingual children. METHOD In Study 1, 55 TD children (ages 4;0 [y...

This paper analyzes the impact of biased beliefs on the structure of informational equilibria in classical self-selection models. Using the intuitive insurance market example of Rothschild-Stiglitz (1976) I show that biases of high-risk individuals have fundamentally different effects on equilibrium contracts than biases of low-risk individuals. Whereas equilibrium contracts of both groups are ...

In this issue of the Journal, Most et al. [1] attempt to give further insight into the dilemma of indications to surgical repair of acute type A aortic dissection (AADA) in patients presenting with pre-operative neurological dysfunction. The topic has been the focus of numerous institutional and registry reports in the past [2–4]. Although a formal consensus has not yet been reached, there is w...

Factor X deficiency is the most common coagulation factor deficiency amongst patients with AL amyloidosis. It presumably occurs due to adsorption of factor X to amyloid fibrils. The deficiency of this factor, in conjunction with other hemostatic defects, can cause bleeding complications. A case of acquired factor X deficiency due to AL amyloidosis is reported, where abnormal coagulation paramet...
