Baby steps: investigating the development of perceptual-motor couplings in infancy [PDF]
There are cells in our motor cortex that fire both when we perform and when we observe similar actions. It has been suggested that these perceptual-motor couplings in the brain develop through associative learning during correlated sensorimotor ...

Concurrent Validity and Feasibility of Short Tests Currently Used to Measure Early Childhood Development in Large Scale Studies: Methodology and Results [PDF]
In low- and middle-income countries (LIMCs) measuring early childhood development (ECD) with standard tests in large scale surveys (i.e. evaluations of interventions) is difficult and expensive.

A radiographic and physical analysis of factors affecting seat belt position in sitting car seat
The characteristic subcutaneous hemorrhage along the seat belt in motor vehicle accidents is called the seat belt sign (SBS). The risk of organ injuries is especially high when abdominal SBS is located above the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS).

Control of crystalline orientation of hot forged Nd-Fe-B magnet
Nd-Fe-B powder obtained by melt spinning was compacted, and then forged to produce a magnet with even magnetic properties. There is a strong correlation between the strain introduced to the magnet while it is being forged and the obtained magnetic ...
