A simple clinical risk score for empiric diagnosis of active tuberculosis in other pretest TB probability settings. by Yeonsoo Baik (6945236)

“…<p>For illustrative purposes, we have chosen cutoffs of 10% and 40% risk of TB as potential clinical decision points, based on natural breaks in predictive probability and on intuition that TB treatment is unlikely to be started empirically for patients with less than a 1 in 10 chance of having TB. Other cutoffs could be selected based on local resources and probabilities of loss to follow-up if untreated. …”

Data_Sheet_1_What's Behind Image? Toward a Better Understanding of Image-Driven Behavior.pdf by Tobias Regner (10944378)

“…<p>Our experimental design systematically varies image concerns in a dictator/trust game. In comparison to the baseline, we either decrease the role of self-image concerns (by providing an excuse for selfish behavior) or increase the role of social-image concerns (by conveying the transfer choice to a third person). …”
