Symptom exaggeration or fabrication occurs in a sizeable minority of neuropsychological examinees, with greater prevalence in forensic contexts. Adequate assessment of response validity is essential in order to maximize confidence in the results of neurocognitive and personality measures and in the diagnoses and recommendations that are based on the results. Symptom validity assessment may incl...

The purpose of this paper is to determine the large N asymptotics of the free energy FN (a, U |A) of Y M2 (two-dimensional Yang Mills theory) with gauge group GN = SU(N) on a cylinder where a is a so-called principal element of type ρ. Mathematically, FN (U1, U2|A) = 1 N2 log HGN (A/2N, U1, U2) is the central heat kernel of GN . We find that FN (aN , UN |A) ∼ N A Ξ(dθ, dσ) where Ξ is an explici...

OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to identify high-risk industry groups for effective allocation of occupational safety and health prevention and research resources. METHODS We used all compensable Washington state workers' compensation claims to rank North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) industry groups by a "prevention index" (PI). The PI is the average of the rank o...
