Abstract Recent studies demonstrate that white Americans who adhere to “Christian nationalism”―an ideology idealizes and advocates a fusion of Christianity American civic life―tend hold authoritarian, exclusionary, overtly prejudicial attitudes, particularly regarding ethno-racial minorities. We use data from the 1996 2014 General Social Surveys consider relative political tolerance toward old-fashioned racists (i.e., persons believe black are genetically inferior) compared other...

Abstract Since 2016, Americans’ attitudes toward Russia and Vladimir Putin have shifted, with Republicans becoming far more supportive of both. And though condemnation Russia's invasion Ukraine in 2022 remains bipartisan, many Christian‐right leaders still support Russia. What undergirds this support?

Acoustical holography is a technique that has been used extensively to characterize the surface velocities and acoustic pressures of coherently vibrating structures such as engines gearboxes. For aeroacoustic noise sources jets with multiple distributed, partially correlated source mechanisms, scan-based techniques using reference response transducers singular value decomposition (SVD) have applied acoustical decompose these into partial fields. Partial fields can reconstruct an overall...

INTRODUCTION: The Statement of Demonstrated Ability (SODA) is a type U.S. aeromedical waiver used for disqualifying conditions that are not expected to change. About 21,000 (2%) pilots possess SODA waiver. METHODS: We matched all pilot medical exams from the FAA’s certification database 2002 through 2011 their respective accidents in National Transportation Safety Board accident database. association waivers and with odds an were explored using logistic regression techniques. RESULTS: For 3...
