Religion And American Political Judgments, Kent Greenawalt
Religion And American Political Judgments, Kent Greenawalt
Faculty Scholarship
This Article addresses the extent to which officials and citizens should rely directly on their religious convictions to reach political judgments and make political arguments. Reviewing opposing "exclusive" and "inclusive" positions, this Article suggests that officials generally should not articulate arguments in religious terms. Many officials should have a greater freedom to rely on religious bases of judgments, and private citizens should not regard themselves as constrained in the manner of officials. This approach, defended initially from the perspective of detached political philosophy, fits comfortably with a variety of overarching religious views. The constraints it suggests should be regarded as …
Enhancing Micro-Organism Images By Estimating Image Background, Delong Liu
Enhancing Micro-Organism Images By Estimating Image Background, Delong Liu
Open Access Dissertations
One- and two-dimensional techniques are proposed for enhancing micro-organism images using linear least-squares fitting, median filtering combined with bicubic approximation and wavelet filtering, respectively. The quality of enhanced images with pixel dimensions of 1200 x 1600 is examined from their corresponding binary images. It shows that one-dimensional modeling requires much less computation but provides relatively low quality output. On the other hand, the two-dimensional approximations for non-uniform lighting background, using both bicubic spline and wavelet filtering, are more effective and yield very high quality binary images tested with three different grayscale images.
The Power Of Suggestion: Inertia In 401k Participation And Savings Behavior, Brigitte C. Madrian, Dennis F. Shea
The Power Of Suggestion: Inertia In 401k Participation And Savings Behavior, Brigitte C. Madrian, Dennis F. Shea
Faculty Publications
In this paper, we analyze the 401(k) savings behavior of employees in a large U.S. corporation before and after an interesting change in the company 401(k) plan. Before the plan change, employees were required to affirmatively elect participation in the 401(k) plan. After the plan change, employees were automatically and immediately enrolled in the 401(k) plan unless they made a negative election to opt out of the plan. Although none of the economic features of the plan changed, this switch to automatic enrollment dramatically changed the savings behavior of employees. We have two key findings. First, 401(k) participation is significantly …

There has been considerable discussion of a variety of issues related to fair value in the actuarial literature, in conferences, and among individuals interested in this topic. Unfortunately, we seem to be failing to communicate due, in part, to inconsistent use of terminology. The goal of this discussion paper is to present a few concepts that we hope will be of use in the broader discussion of fair value of liabilities.
Good Day Sunshine: Stock Returns And The Weather, David Hirshleifer, Tyler Shumway
Good Day Sunshine: Stock Returns And The Weather, David Hirshleifer, Tyler Shumway
Faculty Publications
Psychological evidence and casual intuition predict that sunny weather is associated with upbeat mood. This paper examines the relationship between morning sunshine in the city of a country's leading stock exchange and daily market index returns across 26 countries from 1982 to 1997. Sunshine is strongly significantly correlated with stock returns. After controlling for sunshine, rain and snow are unrelated to returns. Substantial use of weatherbased strategies was optimal for a trader with very low transactions costs. However, because these strategies involve frequent trades, fairly modest costs eliminate the gains. These findings are difficult to reconcile with fully rational price …
Do Behavioral Biases Affect Prices?, Joshua D. Coval, Tyler Shumway
Do Behavioral Biases Affect Prices?, Joshua D. Coval, Tyler Shumway
Faculty Publications
This paper documents strong evidence of behavioral biases among Chicago Board of Trade proprietary traders and investigates the effect these biases have on prices. Our traders appear highly loss-averse. Traders who experience morning losses are about 16 percent more likely to assume above-average afternoon risk than traders with morning gains. This behavior has important short-term consequences for afternoon prices, as losing traders are prepared to purchase contracts at higher prices and sell contracts at lower prices than those that prevailed previously. However, during the ten minutes that follow these trades, prices revert strongly to their earlier levels. Consistent with these …

A High-Altitude Snow Chemistry Record From Amundsenisen, Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica, Elisabeth Isaksson, Wibjorn Karlen, Paul A. Mayewski, Mark S. Twickler, Sallie I. Whitlow

In this paper a detailed record of major ions from a 20 m deep firn core from Amundsenisen, western Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica, is presented. The core was drilled at 75° S, 2° E (2900 m a.s.l.) during austral summer 1991/92. The following ions were measured at 3 cm resolution: Na+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Cl−, NO3−, S04 2− and CH3SO3H (MSA). The core was dated back to 1865 using a combination of chemical records and volcanic reference horizons. The volcanic eruptions identified in this core are Mount Ngauruhoe, New Zealand (1974–75), Mount Agung, Indonesia (1963), Azul, Argentina (1932), and a broad …
A Preliminary Assessment Of Tidal Flooding Along The New Hampshire Coast: Past, Present And Future, Larry G. Ward, Jamie R. Adams
A Preliminary Assessment Of Tidal Flooding Along The New Hampshire Coast: Past, Present And Future, Larry G. Ward, Jamie R. Adams
Faculty Publications
This report presents the results of a preliminary study that examines several critical coastal issues for New Hampshire including sea level fluctuations (past, present and future), shoreline migrations, and tidal flooding. Included are: 1) an analysis of sea level changes over the Holocene and resulting shoreline migrations, 2) an assessment of low-lying areas with elevations below selected tidal flooding datums in coastal areas, and 3) an assessment of increases in low-lying areas that are potentially at risk to tidal flooding over the next century due to sea level rise.

The Efficacy Of Administration Accommodations In Removing Performance Barriers For Limited English Proficient Students On The Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (Fcat), John J. Meyer
Graduate Student Dissertations, Theses, Capstones, and Portfolios
The education of persons with limited English proficiency is and has been the concern of American educators, policymakers and the courts for the past three decades. The rising concern is exacerbated as the number of these students entering American schools is sharply increasing. One question of paramount importance in the realm of educational programming for limited English proficient (LEP) students is participation in large-scale assessment programs, especially in states where high-stakes testing programs determine receipt of a standard high school diploma. LEP student participation includes consideration of special testing conditions, enabling them to be assessed on an equal plane with …
