Occupation times via Bessel Functions

This study of occupation time densities for continuous-time Markov processes was inspired by the work of E.Nir et al (see [13]) in the field of Single Molecule FRET spectroscopy. There, a single molecule fluctuates between two or more states, and the experimental observable depends on the state’s occupation time distribution. To mathematically describe the observable there was a need to calcula...

Detecting Coordination Failures by Observing Groups: A Formal Approach

Teams often require their members to coordinate with respect to specific aspects of their joint task. These coordination relations can often fail as a result of intermittent failures of sensor readings, communication failures, etc. Detection of such failures, based upon agents’ observations of each other, is of prime importance. Though different solutions have been presented, none has presented...

RUNNING HEAD: Father Absence and Adolescent Romantic Relationship Ideals 1 The Impact of Father Absence on Adolescent Romantic Relationship Ideals

Previous literature has addressed the impact of father absence on adolescents’ sexual development and behavior but has neglected to explore youth’s motivations and attitudes towards romantic relationships. This study examined the association between the duration of father absence and adolescents’ romantic relationship ideals of commitment, sex, and pregnancy within a romantic relationship. It f...

Father absence, menarche and interest in infants among adolescent girls.

In this study we examined the relationship between menarche and interest in infants among adolescent girls, and the effects of early environment, particularly of father absence from home, on both variables. Eighty-three girls ranging in age from between 11 and 14 years served as study participants. Interest in infants was assessed through their preferences for photos and silhouettes of animal a...
