Cultural Differences in Maternal Beliefs and Behaviors: A Study of Middle-Class Anglo and Puerto Rican Mother-Infant Pairs in Four Everyday Situations
TL;DR: This study examines cultural patterning in situational variability in mother-infant interactions among middle-class Anglo and Puerto Rican mothers and their 12 to 15-month-old firstborn children to suggest that Anglo mothers place greater emphasis on socialization goals and childrearing strategies consonant with a more individualistic orientation.

Mapping clay content variation using electromagnetic induction techniques
John Triantafilis,Scott M. Lesch +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a methodology is outlined for mapping spatial distribution of bulk soil average clay content to a depth of 7m using EM measurements, and a hierarchical spatial regression model is developed using a composite signal variable.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial variability of Southeastern U.S. Coastal Plain soil physical properties: Implications for site-specific management
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the field-scale horizontal and vertical spatial variability of soil physical properties and their relations to soil map units in typical southeastern USA coastal plain soils, and identify the soil properties, or clusters of properties, that defined most of the variability within the field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contrasting plant productivity–diversity relationships across latitude: the role of evolutionary history
TL;DR: The shape of the productivity-diversity relationship differs between temperate and tropical regions and the different evolutionary history of the local species pools is a probable cause for the difference.

Problems of relative growth
TL;DR: This detailed study of the different rates of growth of parts of the body relative to the body as a whole represents Sir Julian Huxley's great contribution to analytical morphology, and it is still a basis for modern investigations in morphometrics and evolutionary biology.

Experiments with Mixtures: Designs, Models and the Analysis of Mixture Data
TL;DR: In this paper, the original Mixture Problem is described and models for exploring the Entire Simplex Factor Space are presented, including matrix algebra, least squares, and the analysis of variance.
New statistical methods for allometry with application to
TL;DR: In this paper, Mosimann et al. presented new statistical methods for the study of size and shape, and used these methods to study the morphology of red-winged blackbirds, Agelaius phoeniceus breeding in Florida.

Analysis of dispersion on a sphere
TL;DR: In this article, a series of approximate tests of significance is given for hypotheses about the precision constant K and the polar vector on a sphere, where 8' is the angle between the polar and observation vectors.
