A coupled 2 x 2D Babcock-Leighton solar dynamo model. II Reference dynamo solutions
(American Astronomical Society, 2017-01)
In this paper we complete the presentation of a new hybrid 2 × 2D flux transport dynamo (FTD) model of the solar
cycle based on the Babcock–Leighton mechanism of poloidal magnetic field regeneration via the surface decay ...
A multidimensional analysis of Aslib proceedings – using everything but the impact factor
(Emerald, 2014-07-15)
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to show that the journal impact factor (IF) is not able to reflect
the full impact of scholarly journals and provides an overview of alternative and complementary
methods in journal ...
The impact of poor sleep on cognition and activities of daily living after traumatic brain injury : a review
Sleep and everyday activities after TBI
(Wiley, 2014)
Background/aim : Patients frequently report sleep disrup-tions or insomnia during their hospital stay, particularlyafter a traumatic brain injury (TBI). The consequences ofthese sleep disturbances on everyday activities ...
Clinical, anatomical and pathological features in the three variants of primary progressive aphasia : a review
(Frontiers media, 2018-08-21)
Primary progressive aphasias (PPA) are neurodegenerative diseases clinically
characterized by an early and relatively isolated language impairment. Three main
clinical variants, namely the nonfluent/agrammatic variant ...
Gray matter hypertrophy and thickening with obstructive sleep apnea in middle-aged and older adults
Gray matter increases with obstructive sleep apnea
(American Thoracic Society, 2017-06-01)
Rationale: Obstructive sleep apnea causes intermittent hypoxemia, hemodynamic fluctuations,
and sleep fragmentation, all of which could damage cerebral gray matter that can be indirectly
assessed with neuroimaging.
Objectives: ...
Nightmare frequency, nightmare distress and the efficiency of trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy for post-traumatic stress disorder
(Wolters Kluwer, 2016)
Background: Up to 71% of trauma victims diagnosed with PTSD have frequent nightmares (NM), compared to only 2% to 5% of the
general population.
Objectives: The present study examined whether nightmares before the beginning ...
Monetary policy in sudden stop-prone economies
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2018-06)
In a model featuring sudden stops and pecuniary externalities, I show that the ability to use capital controls has radical implications for the conduct of monetary policy. Absent capital controls, following an inflation ...
Robust design in monotonic matching markets : a case for firm-proposing deferred-acceptance
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2018-05)
We study two-sided matching markets among workers and firms. Workers seek one position at a firm but firms may employ several workers. In many applications those markets are monotonic: leaving positions unfilled is costly ...
Positively responsive collection choice rules and majority rule: a generalization of May's theorem to many alternatives
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2018-04)
A collective choice rule selects a set of alternatives for each collective choice problem. Suppose that the alternative ’x’, is in the set selected by a collective choice rule for some collective choice problem. Now suppose ...
Bootstrapping factor models with cross sectional dependence
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2018-07)
We consider bootstrap methods for factor-augmented regressions with cross sectional dependence among idiosyncratic errors. This is important to capture the bias of the OLS estimator derived recently by Gonçalves and Perron ...
