Despite significant advances in autism research, experts have noted that children severely affected by spectrum disorder (ASD) appear to been understudied. Rigorous analysis of this observation has limited, and the representation severity not well-described. We assessed three domains (communication ability, cognitive functioning, adaptive functioning) 367 treatment studies with ASD published 1991–2013. found proportion included population decreased significantly over time, as well wide...

Science is currently under-utilized as a tool for effective policy and program design. A key part of this research-to-practice gap lies in the ineffectiveness current models science translation. Drawing on theory methods from anthropology cognitive linguistics, study explores role cultural metaphor practice communication Qualitative interviews group sessions, along with quantitative framing experiments, were used to design test effectiveness set explanatory metaphors translating executive...
Researchers working in remote China have uncovered dozens of languages that had been hidden by mountainous terrain and administrative practice.

Researchers are analyzing spoonerisms and other slips of the tongue to help understand how humans--and even apes--can comprehend use language.
Data-science is an interdisciplinary research working on data from different fields. When analyzing these data, scientists implicitly agree to follow the rules governing However, responsibilities of involved actors are not necessarily explicit. While novel frameworks supporting open-science being proposed, there currently no that focus within a data-science project. In this paper, we describe Transparency, Accountability, Privacy, and Societal Responsibility Matrix (TAPS-RM) as framework...

She emerged from sea and then headed inland, where she created children put each one in specific place on landscape, giving language as did so.

In recent years they begun borrow methods used biology derive evolutionary trees tease apart history language. This week approach takes major step...
