TL;DR: This research is the first geographic study that utilizes space-time statistics to monitor COVID-19 in the U.S. between January 22th-March 9th, 2020, and January 22nd-March 27th of 2020, using daily case data provided by Johns Hopkins University and SaTScan.

TL;DR: In this article, the Rational Choice Theory of Religion (RCT) was used to investigate whether nonprofit, religious congregations can benefit from similar initiatives, based on the hypothesis that businesses that act with an entrepreneurial orientation enjoy superior performance.
Abstract: Empirical and anecdotal evidence suggests that businesses that act with an entrepreneurial orientation enjoy superior performance. Our research investigates whether nonprofit, religious congregations can benefit from similar initiatives. We based our hypotheses on the Rational Choice Theory of Religion, which was developed by social scientists to bring economic analysis to the understanding of the effects of competition among nonprofit organizations. Using a sample of 250 religious congregations in five different geographical markets, an entrepreneurial orientation is found to be positively associated with organizational performance. A hypothesized interaction effect between environmental munificence and entrepreneurial orientation is assessed.

TL;DR: This work proposes a novel unsupervised framework for pan-sharpening based on a generative adversarial network, termed as Pan-GAN, which does not rely on the so-called ground-truth during network training and has shown promising performance in terms of qualitative visual effects and quantitative evaluation metrics.

TL;DR: This article showed that mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) has an initial small effect on neuropsychological functioning that dissipates quickly after 3 months post-injury and showed that verbal paired associates, coding tasks, and digit span yielded significant differences between mTBI and control groups.
Abstract: The meta-analytic findings of Binder et al. (1997) and Frencham et al. (2005) showed that the neuropsychological effect of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) was negligible in adults by 3 months post injury. Pertab et al. (2009) reported that verbal paired associates, coding tasks, and digit span yielded significant differences between mTBI and control groups. We re-analyzed data from the 25 studies used in the prior meta-analyses, correcting statistical and methodological limitations of previous efforts, and analyzed the chronicity data by discrete epochs. Three months post injury the effect size of -0.07 was not statistically different from zero and similar to that which has been found in several other meta-analyses (Belanger et al., 2005; Schretlen & Shapiro, 2003). The effect size 7 days post injury was -0.39. The effect of mTBI immediately post injury was largest on Verbal and Visual Memory domains. However, 3 months post injury all domains improved to show non-significant effect sizes. These findings indicate that mTBI has an initial small effect on neuropsychological functioning that dissipates quickly. The evidence of recovery in the present meta-analysis is consistent with previous conclusions of both Binder et al. and Frencham et al. Our findings may not apply to people with a history of multiple concussions or complicated mTBIs.
