TL;DR: Land-use mix had the strongest association with obesity, and relationships among urban form, walk distance, and time in a car were stronger among white than black cohorts, while relationships among the built environment, travel patterns, and weight may vary across gender and ethnicity.

TL;DR: It is shown that errors on the SART can be predicted by a significant shortening of reaction times in the immediately preceding responses, supporting the view that these errors are a result of 'drift' of controlled processing into automatic responding consequent on impaired sustained attention to task.

TL;DR: These findings provide a resolution to the long-standing early and late selection debate within a load theory of attention that accommodates behavioural and neuroimaging data within a framework that integrates attention research with executive function.

TL;DR: In childhood, traumatic brain injury poses the unique challenges of an injury to a developing brain and the dynamic pattern of recovery over time, so the treatment needs to be multifaceted and starts at the scene of the injury and extends into the home and school.
Abstract: In childhood, traumatic brain injury (TBI) poses the unique challenges of an injury to a developing brain and the dynamic pattern of recovery over time, inflicted TBI and its medicolegal ramifications. The mechanisms of injury vary with age, as do the mechanisms that lead to the primary brain injury. As it is common, and is the leading cause of death and disability in the USA and Canada, prevention is the key, and we may need increased legislation to facilitate this. Despite its prevalence, there is an almost urgent need for research to help guide the optimal management and improve outcomes. Indeed, contrary to common belief, children with severe TBI have a worse outcome and many of the consequences present in teenage years or later. The treatment needs, therefore, to be multifaceted and starts at the scene of the injury and extends into the home and school. In order to do this, the care needs to be multidisciplinary from specialists with a specific interest in TBI and to involve the family, and will often span many decades.

TL;DR: In this article, a set of propositions concerning the effects of congenital factors in children on parent behavior are presented, which can be interpreted plausibly as indicating effects of children on parents.
Abstract: Studies are summarized indicating that the basic model of socialization, the action of a parent on a child, is too limited to accommodate data emerging from recent studies of human and animal Ss. A set of propositions is presented concerning the effects of congenital factors in children on parent behavior. This system is applied to current findings in several major areas. Current literature on socialization, based largely on correlations between parent and child behavior, can be reinterpreted plausibly as indicating effects of children on parents. A correlation does not indicate direction of effect. The effect of children on parents can no longer be dismissed as only a logical but implausible alternative explanation of a correlation.
