Climate finance commitments in practice
The Network on Environment and Development Co-operation (Environet) of the Development Assistance Committee (DAC) aims to make sure development co-operation supports the protection of the environment, adaptation to climate change, and emissions reduction. When successful, these efforts can lead to better development outcomes and living conditions, and more sustainable economic growth

Music in healthcare
Music is increasingly investigated in healthcare to manage pain, anxiety and stress. Previous studies have demonstrated that listening to (preferred) music is effective for pain relief, but rarely explore whether people are open to instrumentalizing music in healthcare. Therefore, this study investigates 1) to what extent people across twenty countries are willing to listen to music when experiencing pain in healthcare, and 2) which music genres …
Cross-sectional association of light sensor-measured time outdoors with physical activity and gross motor competency among U.S. preschool-aged children
In a representative sample of U.S. preschool-aged children, daily outdoor time was positively associated with daily PA. The contribution of outdoor time to PA was greater among girls than boys, suggesting that providing outdoor opportunities is critical for promoting PA, particularly among girls
Cognitive Profiles of Adolescent Inpatients with Substance Use Disorder
The prevalence of substance abuse is high during adolescence, and several studies have linked the use of alcohol and cannabis in adolescence to different cognitive impairments. To investigate whether specific cognitive deficits can be observed in adolescents with substance use disorder (SUD), we compared the cognitive profiles of inpatient adolescents diagnosed with SUD to a control group matched for sex, age and educational status. The inpatient…
Functional Parallelism of Detailed and Rough Speech Processing at the End of Infancy
Although realization of the same speech sound is far from being consistent across different contexts, speech recognition has to rely on phonetic detail in order to detect words. So far, it appeared that young infants cannot avoid noticing subtle speech sound variation whenever it occurs. Only later on, they are able to tolerate speech sound variation in some word recognition tasks. Here, we test whether this ability is associated with the time in…
Engaging Chicago Hospitals in the Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative
Recruiting Injection Drug Users
Several recent studies have utilized respondent-driven sampling (RDS) methods to survey hidden populations such as commercial sex-workers, men who have sex with men (MSM) and injection drug users (IDU). Few studies, however, have provided a direct comparison between RDS and other more traditional sampling methods such as venue-based, targeted or time/space sampling. The current study sampled injection drug users in three U.S. cities using RDS and…
Age Differences in Health Effects of Stressors and Perceived Control Among Urban African American Women
Social inequalities, stressors and self reported health status among African American and white women in the Detroit metropolitan area
Unfair Treatment, Neighborhood Effects, and Mental Health in the Detroit Metropolitan Area
Why do racial differences in many indicators of mental and emotional well-being show inconsistent patterns? We propose that mental and emotional well-being are influenced by aspects of the social context, including experiences of unfair treatment and the concentration of households with incomes below the poverty level, and that differential exposure to these factors influences racial differences in mental well-being. We analyze the reporting of p…
Giving Distance its Due (On ‘Mutual Translatability’)

Une sépulture du Michelsberg
Les sédiments de la couche 2 du trou de la Heid à Comblain-au-Pont ont livré un dépôt funéraire comprenant 24 dents et ossements humains mal conservés et un riche mobilier archéologique. L'étude anthropologique témoigne de la présence de deux individus, un adulte et un enfant. Leurs ossements ont été datés au 14C de 4650 + 60 BP (Lv-1586), soit entre 3380 et 3530 ВС après calibration à un sigma. Le matériel archéologique se compose essentiellemen…
Le paléolithique supérieur récent du Trou Jadot à Comblain-au-Pont (Province de Liège, Belgique) et son paléoenvironnement
RESUME Les études microfauniques, polliniques et sédi- mentologiques des dépôts du Trou Jadot à Comblain-au-Pont, province de Liège, Belgique, ont mis en évidence une alternance de périodes paléoclimatiques rigoureuses et tempérées que les datations radiométriques et l'étude des minéraux mafiques transparents permettent de replacer dans la chronostratigraphie du Weichsélien, depuis le Dryas I jusqu'à la fin de l'Allerød. La dernière oscillation t…
