Evaluating Methods for Reducing Sampling Bias in Network Analysis
This study aims to investigate the dynamics of obsidian trade networks during the Jomon period (approximately 15,000 to 2,400 years ago), the hunting and gathering era in Japan. To improve regional representation and reduce the distortions caused by small sample sizes, we performed clustering based on a large-scale dataset and conducted social network analysis. The research results revealed that the trade networks during the Jomon period were not…
Sharing Research Code in Archaeology
In this paper we trace the development of an R-package starting with the adaptation of code from a different field, via scripts shared between colleagues, to a published package that is being successfully used by researchers world-wide. Our aim is to encourage researchers to prepare their custom analysis code in a way that is useful and easily reusable for others

Navigating the Murky Waters of Colorectal Cancer Screening and Health Reform
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) mandates that both Medicaid and insurance plans cover life-saving preventive services recommended by the US Preventive Services Task Force, including colorectal cancer (CRC) screening and choice between colonoscopy, flexible sigmoidoscopy, and fecal occult blood testing (FOBT). People who choose FOBT or sigmoidoscopy as their initial test could face high, unexpected, out-of-pocket costs because the mandate does not c…

Bernard Carlson (bio) On the evening of 2 May 1878, the Washburn A Mill in Minneapolis erupted in flames, sending the flourmill's concrete roof flying several hundred feet in the air. Neighboring buildings were flattened and pandemonium filled the street…
A note on choosing a service provider from telephone listings: Focus on community mental health centers
178 college students searched telephone directories with instruction to find help for a friend with a serious emotional problem. There were no significant differences between white and yellow pages or between fine or bold print in the relative frequency with which CMHCs were found. The most important listing in the white pages was "Mental Health Center" and in the yellow pages was under "Clinics." More than two listings did not increase the relat…
