Journal ArticleDOI
Fragmentation and high entropy of neonatal experience predict adolescent emotional outcome
TL;DR: High-entropy and fragmented patterns of maternal-derived sensory input to the developing brain predicts, and might promote, the development of anhedonia in rodents, with potential clinical implications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Posterior predictive model checks for disease mapping models
Hal S. Stern,Noel A Cressie +1 more
TL;DR: This work proposes the use of the cross-validation posterior predictive distribution, obtained by reanalyzing the data without a suspect small area, as a method for assessing whether the observed count in the area is consistent with the model.
Journal ArticleDOI
A State-Space Model for National Football League Scores
Mark E. Glickman,Hal S. Stern +1 more
TL;DR: A predictive model for National Football League game scores using data from the period 1988–1993 is developed to obtain plausible inferences concerning team strengths and other model parameters, and to predict future game outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation of cytomegalovirus and clinical manifestations of infection at different ages.
TL;DR: The view that long-term steroid therapy is a valuable form of treatment, but it must be used circumspectly, with adequate supervision and full collaboration between the hospital consultant and the family physician is reiterated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exposure to unpredictable maternal sensory signals influences cognitive development across species.
Elyssia Poggi Davis,Stephanie A. Stout,Jenny Molet,Brian G. Vegetabile,Laura M. Glynn,Curt A. Sandman,Kevin Heins,Hal S. Stern,Tallie Z. Baram +8 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that predictability of maternal sensory signals early in life impacts cognitive function in both rats and humans and suggests that these signals contribute to the shaping of the underlying neural circuits, including the hippocampus.
