Insurance consumption in Italy: a sub-regional panel data analysis
, 2008
"... We analyze the consumption of life and non-life insurance across 103 Italian provinces in 1996-2002. We assess the determinants of insurance consumption, in the light of the empirical literature and the distinctive features of our country, trying to explain the underdevelopment of the South as regar ..."

of observing prices in this market, may be alleviated. On the other hand, a sub-regional analysis raises issues of cross-sectional dependence, either due to common nationwide and/or regional factors or to spatial proximity. We assess cross-sectional dependence in different ways: we employ a recent joint test
Anterior cingulate cortex and response conflict: Effects of frequency, inhibition, and errors
- Cerebral Cortex
, 2001
"... Anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) may play a key role in cognitive control by monitoring for the occurrence of response conflict (i.e., simultaneous activation of incompatible response tendencies). Low-frequency responding might provide a minimal condition for eliciting such conflict, as a result of t ..."

conditions manipulated the frequency of relevant task events. Consistent with our hypothesis, the same ACC region was equally responsive to low-frequency events across all three tasks, but did not show differential responding when events occurred with equal-frequency. Subregions of the ACC were also

World Health Organization declared the current Ebola outbreak in West Africa an international public health emergency. The high level of poverty in the West African sub-region and the dearth of medical personnel couple with the inadequate medical equipment poses a serious challenge to the prevention
Schwarz Analysis Of Iterative Substructuring Algorithms For Elliptic Problems In Three Dimensions
- SIAM J. Numer. Anal

"... . Domain decomposition methods provide powerful preconditioners for the iterative solution of the large systems of algebraic equations that arise in finite element or finite difference approximations of partial differential equations. The preconditioners are constructed from exact or approximate sol ..."

In addition, the preconditioner is often augmented by a coarse, second level approximation, that provides additional, global exchange of information, and which can enhance
A classification of natural rivers.

"... Abstract A classification system for natural rivers is presented in which a morphological arrangement of stream characteristics is organized into relatively homogeneous stream types. This paper describes morphologically similar stream reaches that are divided into 7 major stream type categories tha ..."

Non-invasive mapping of connections between human thalamus and cortex using diffusion imaging.
- Nat Neurosci
, 2003
"... The anatomical connectivity pattern of a brain region determines its function 1 . Although invasive tracer studies have produced a large body of evidence concerning connectivity patterns in non-human animals 2-4 , direct information concerning brain connections in humans is very limited.
