Influencing Human Behavior.

Traffic Control by Influencing User Behavior

Traffic generation in mobile networks is heavily dependent on user behavior because the users move around with their terminals. For example, at a special event such as a fireworks display or football game, the people will congregate in a specific place and may try to make calls, generating unpredictable excessive traffic, leading to network congestion. When the users cannot get through due to c...

Adolescents and Driving: Factors Influencing Behavior

Factors Influencing Retention Behavior at IUB

Over the past year the Dean of the Faculties’ Office of Institutional Research has been engaged in research designed to understand factors that influence first-to-third semester retention behavior on the Bloomington campus. Considering the widespread interest in this topic and its far ranging implications for our campus, the importance of understanding student persistence factors cannot be over...

Modeling Partial Monosomy for Human Chromosome 21q11.2-q21.1 Reveals Haploinsufficient Genes Influencing Behavior and Fat Deposition

Haploinsufficiency of part of human chromosome 21 results in a rare condition known as Monosomy 21. This disease displays a variety of clinical phenotypes, including intellectual disability, craniofacial dysmorphology, skeletal and cardiac abnormalities, and respiratory complications. To search for dosage-sensitive genes involved in this disorder, we used chromosome engineering to generate a mo...
