Allostatic load and frailty do not covary significantly among older residents of Greater Poland

As a neurophysiological response system, allostasis supports survival by limiting stressor-related damage.

One suggestion, based on large cohort studies of person's ages 70 + years, is that frailty contributes to allostat…
Legislating Islamophobia: The factors for the existence of anti-sharia laws in the United States
In 2010 a number of states began introducing a law that prohibited the application of sharia in U.S. courtrooms. Sharia, translated as the ‘clear path’, is essentially the law of Islam.

Civic crowd-funding: A potential test of the voluntary theory of public finance for public capital goods

This paper explores this new approach to funding capital projects and grounds it within a discussion …

This is not being done among scholars in this field and is necessary to determine empirically if these …
