Tandem conceptual progression (TCP): Pilot case study of a cognitively diverse student’s use of adjacent problem-solving and answer-checking schemes
Children experiencing difficulties learning mathematics often have a long-embedded coping mechanism of looking to others as authorities for the correctness of their solutions. In this pilot case study, we demonstrate ways in which promoting their checking of their own answers can empower their development. Specifically, we examine answer-checking schemes that a cognitively diverse 6th grader with difficulties learning mathematics used when solvin…
A stage-sensitive written measure of multiplicative double counting for grades 3-8
A quadripartite model of passion for marijuana use: Associations with consumption, consequences, craving, and satisfaction with life
Findings demonstrate that Pure OP and Mixed Passion are associated with greater risk. Mixed Passion may be a precursor to Pure OP and experiencing MJ-related consequences. Furthermore, Mixed Passion and Pure OP may be important targets for intervention/prevention programs designed to reduce negative outcomes

Ratings of actual and ideal goals and tasks of counselor licensing boards were obtained. Board members rated public protection goals as most frequently accomplished and public protection tasks as most significant
Report of the Tobacco Policy Research Study Group on Tobacco Pricing and Taxation in the United States
It is widely recognised that tobacco taxes are a potent device to decrease tobacco consump tion. In the United States, however, tobacco taxes have fallen, after adjustment for inflation, since the first Surgeon General's report was issued in 1964 in which the US government acknowledged the link between tobacco and disease. The proportion of pack price accoun ted for by tax has decreased by nearly half since 1964. Indeed, there have been only two …

State Strategies to Support Local School Improvement
In recent years, state departments of education have undertaken strategies to support local school improvement. Some emphasize school wide improvement while others focus specifically on instructional improvement. This study, based on case study methodology, sought to determine what factors were most important in the process of actually putting in place an improvement effort. The study indicated that the implementation within the school could be b…

Roles, Role Formats and Medical Encounters: Across-Cultural Analysis of Staff-Client Relationships in Children's Clinics
The influence of variations of fiber direction on the distribution of stress and strain in the left ventricular wall was investigated using a finite element model to simulate the mechanics of the left ventricle. The commonly modelled helix fiber angle was defined as the angle between the local circumferential direction and the projection of the fiber path on the plane perpendicular to the local radial direction. In the present study, an additiona…
