Creators: name: Lyne, Lori Anne
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2018

Abstract
Background: Chronic illnesses such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, respiratory diseases, and cancer account for 71% of all deaths globally. Health and wellness coaching provides an evidence-based platform from which healthcare professionals can orchestrate coaching strategies with the finesse necessary to elicit and sustain a client’s desire for positive lifestyle change for risk factor reduction of chronic illnesses.
Purpose: The purpose of this Integrative Review for Health and Wellness Coaching for Lifestyle Intervention Toolkit/Blog Presentation was to demonstrate to healthcare professionals an evidence-based best practice designed to increase self-efficacy and empower individuals.
Presentation of Toolkit: A 90-minute evidence-based Toolkit/Blog Presentation to 11 healthcare professionals via Zoom and in person took place at a northeastern university satellite. 
Results/Interpretation: Presenter effectiveness in presenting to overall purpose/goal that the healthcare professional achieved current knowledge and skills in health and wellness coaching for lifestyle intervention had a Likert scale weighted average (WA) of 4.57 from a scale of 5 (strongly agree) to 1 (strongly disagree). Learner’s achievement of objectives on Questions 2–6 had a grand mean WA of 4.48 (strongly agree), and presentation expertise of the speaker evaluated by Questions 7–10 had a grand mean WA of 4.69 (strongly agree). Quantitative results and qualitative responses strongly supported achievement of the purpose/goals.
Conclusion: Health and wellness coaching is essential. Obesity prevalence remains high, adherence to a healthy lifestyle low, and lack of health and wellness coaching expertise exists, all demonstrating a need for this evidence-based Health and Wellness Coaching Toolkit/Blog using mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and self-determination theory to improve self-efficacy and empower clients for sustainable lifestyle changes.

description: A new infinite series of Einstein metrics is constructed explicitly on S^2 x S^3, and the non-trivial S^3-bundle over S^2, containing infinite numbers of inhomogeneous ones. They appear as a certain limit of a nearly extreme 5-dimensional AdS Kerr black hole. In the special case, the metrics reduce to the homogeneous Einstein metrics studied by Wang and Ziller. We also construct an inhomogeneous Einstein metric on the non-trivial S^{d-2}-bundle over S^2 from a d-dimensional AdS Kerr black hole. Our construction is a higher dimensional version of the method of Page, which gave an inhomogeneous Einstein metric on CP^2\sharp\bar{CP^2}.

description: Chronic liver diseases progressively lead to cirrhosis, liver failure, and other complications. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and microspectroscopy imaging are rapidly advancing techniques with multiple benefits for early diagnosis, grading, and monitoring of a broad spectrum of liver diseases. FTIR provides a biochemical overview of a sample, which can be used to determine the need for further in-depth investigations. Numerous studies have showed that infrared imaging offers a great promise for understanding of disease pathogenesis compared to that of common histopathological investigations. Moreover, high-throughput infrared characterization of biofluids has attracted increased interests for a wide array of pathologic diagnosis. The use of infrared spectroscopy and microspectroscopy for diagnosis, grading, and monitoring of liver diseases requires an understanding of infrared microspectroscopy, sample preparation, data collection, analysis, and interpretation. This review provides a comprehensive and up-to-date review of FTIR spectroscopy and microspectroscopy characterization of biofluids and tissues related to hepatic diseases. Each section of this review highlights practical problems and solutions for conducting FTIR spectroscopy and microspectroscopy studies.

description: This study examines formation and adaptation of reference prices by Manitoban grain producers. Research shows that preferences are reference-dependent and marketing decisions are affected by reference prices. Results suggest that Manitoban producers’ reference prices are formed primarily by an average of recent prices and the highest price to-date in the marketing window. Reference prices are found to adapt in the same direction as market prices, with adaptation to increasing prices being larger than adaptation to decreasing prices. When deciding to sell grain, producers are more likely to sell when they expect prices to decrease over the next month and when their reference price adjusts downwards towards the current price.

description: We consider the problem of quantizing a Skyrmion which is allowed to vibrate, rotate and isorotate. Previous approaches have neglected the interactions between vibrations and zero modes (analogous to so-called Coriolis terms in the molecular physics literature). A new formalism incorporating these interactions is introduced, inspired by a principal bundle approach to deformable-body dynamics. We quantize the B=4 and B=7 Skyrmions and compare the results to observed nuclear properties of Helium-4 and the Lithium-7/Beryllium-7 isospin doublet.

description: Two-dimensional simulations of a Type II and a Type Ib-like supernova explosion are presented that encompass shock revival by neutrino heating, neutrino-driven convection, explosive nucleosynthesis, the growth of Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities, and the propagation of newly formed metal clumps through the exploding star. In both cases we find very high Ni56 velocities of 17000 km/s shortly after shock-revival, and a complete fragmentation of the progenitor's metal core within the first few minutes after core bounce, due to the growth of Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities at the Si/O and (C+O)/He composition interfaces. This leads to the formation of high-velocity, metal-rich clumps which eventually decouple from the flow and move ballistically through the ejecta. Maximum final metal velocities of 3500-5500 km/s and 1200 km/s are obtained for the Type Ib model and the Type II model, respectively. The low maximum metal velocities in the Type II model, which are significantly smaller than those observed in SN 1987A, are due to the massive hydrogen envelope of the progenitor. The envelope forces the supernova shock to decelerate strongly, leaving behind a reverse shock below the He/H interface, which interacts with the clumps and slows them down significantly. This reverse shock is absent in the Type Ib-like model. The latter is in fairly good agreement with observations of Type Ib supernovae. In addition, in this case the pattern of clump formation in the ejecta is correlated with the convective pattern prevailing during the shock-revival phase. This might be used to deduce observational constraints for the dynamics during this early phase of the evolution, and the role of neutrino heating in initiating the explosion.

Implementation of an Evidence-Based Screening Tool for Children for Detection of Developmental, Behavioral and Family Issues
Creators: name: Goss, Lyndsay
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2021

Background: Children are a vulnerable population who are at risk for a variety of developmental, behavioral and family concerns. Early intervention leads to improved outcomes. By implementing the comprehensive evidence-based screening tool the Survey of Well-being for Young Children (SWYC), within a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC), outcomes for these children may be improved through early intervention.
Methods: The SWYC survey was provided to parents and guardians of children ages zero to five years at one pilot site at a FQHC in New England during well child visits (WCV) over a 6-week period.  Implementation success was measured through review of electronic medical record (EMR) reports, tracking referrals, and an anonymous staff satisfaction survey.
Results: Chi-square analysis showed no significant difference between the pre-intervention and post-intervention groups developmental screening rate (p=.099) and referral rate (p=1.00). A significant difference (p=.017) was noted in completion of the M-CHAT between groups.  The staff satisfaction survey had an estimated responses rate of 50%.  Responses indicated that 40% of staff were satisfied with the SWYC survey, 50% were neutral, and 10% were unsatisfied.
Conclusion: Findings from the QI project indicate that the sample size may have been too small to see a difference between the pre-intervention and post-intervention groups. M-CHAT rates may have been lower during the QI project because the POSI found within the SWYC survey also screens for autism. An emerging theme was that the SWYC had a greater focus on family concerns when compared to the previous tool used in this FQHC. Recommendations for the future include a larger sample size and higher engagement of clinical staff during pilot project planning.
Engineering quantum pure states of a trapped cold ion beyond the Lamb-Dicke limit

description: Based on the conditional quantum dynamics of laser-ion interaction, we propose an efficient theoretical scheme to deterministically generate quantum pure states of a single trapped cold ion without performing the Lamb-Dicke approximation. An arbitrary quantum state can be created by using a series of classical laser beams with selected frequencies, initial phases and durations. As special examples, we further show how to create or approximate several typical macroscopic quantum states, such as the phase state and (even/odd) coherent states. Unlike previous schemes operated in the Lamb-Dicke regime, the present one does well for arbitrary strength coupling between the internal and external degrees of freedom of the ion. The experimental realizability of this approach is also discussed.

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: Monte Carlo simulations using the newly proposed Wang-Landau algorithm together with the broad histogram relation are performed to study the antiferromagnetic six-state clock model on the triangular lattice, which is fully frustrated. We confirm the existence of the magnetic ordering belonging to the Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) type phase transition followed by the chiral ordering which occurs at slightly higher temperature. We also observe the lower temperature phase transition of KT type due to the discrete symmetry of the clock model. By using finite-size scaling analysis, the higher KT temperature $T_2$ and the chiral critical temperature $T_c$ are respectively estimated as $T_2=0.5154(8)$ and $T_c=0.5194(4)$. The results are in favor of the double transition scenario. The lower KT temperature is estimated as $T_1=0.496(2)$. Two decay exponents of KT transitions corresponding to higher and lower temperatures are respectively estimated as $η_2=0.25(1)$ and $η_1=0.13(1)$, which suggests that the exponents associated with the KT transitions are universal even for the frustrated model.

Increasing Health Literacy through NoteAid Translational Tool in Nursing
Creators: name: Cory, Liz Catherine S.
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2020

Background: Many adults in the United States lack health literacy necessary to understand patient education materials given to them, such as discharge summary. Re-hospitalization rates are higher due to poor transition of care planning. Older adults may only be provided with written instruction for their complex chronic conditions with multiple changes in medical or treatment plan, or uncommon surgical procedures. Nurses are instrumental in bridging the gap, as they often educate, advocate, and use health technology.
Purpose: To educate nurses on the availability of NoteAid as a natural language translation system that can help increase their comprehension of electronic health records through participant evaluation how it can improve quality of care in transition of care process.
Methods: Ten nurses were presented NoteAid as a PowerPoint presentation. A post-evaluation including feedback, and knowledge question on part of sample Assessment and Plan from discharge summary with an overlay of NoteAid was included. The discharge summary was evaluated using Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool (PEMAT).
Results: Although there is a need for a larger sample size, the ten nurse participants were positive that NoteAid can be useful in improving their older patient’s understanding of health teaching from discharge or visit summaries. However, the aging population may find it challenging, depending on their ability to use computers or technology available.
Implications: To decrease re-hospitalization rates, reduce common medical errors, and promote patient or family advocacy. This can help Hospital systems meet most of the “five pillars” of health outcomes for EHR meaningful use.
Spontaneous formation of thermodynamically stable Al--Cu--Fe icosahedral quasicrystal from realistic atomistic simulations

Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)

description: Icosahedral quasicrystals spontaneously form from the melt in simulations of Al--Cu--Fe alloys. We model the interatomic interactions using oscillating pair potentials tuned to the specific alloy system based on a database of density functional theory (DFT)-derived energies and forces. Favored interatomic separations align with the geometry of icosahedral motifs that overlap to create face-centered icosahedral order on a hierarchy of length scales. Molecular dynamics simulations, supplemented with Monte Carlo steps to swap chemical species, efficiently sample the configuration space of our models, which reach up to 9846 atoms. Exchanging temperatures of independent trajectories (replica exchange) allows us to achieve thermal equilibrium at low temperatures. By optimizing structure and composition we create structures whose DFT energies reach to within $\sim$2 meV/atom of the energies of competing crystal phases. Free energies obtained by adding contributions due to harmonic and anharmonic vibrations, chemical substitution disorder, phasons, and electronic excitations, show that the quasicrystal becomes stable against competing phases at temperatures above 600K. The average structure can be described succinctly as a cut through atomic surfaces in six-dimensional space that reveal specific patterns of preferred chemical occupancy. Atomic surface regions of mixed chemical occupation demonstrate the proliferation of phason fluctuations, which can be observed in real space through the formation, dissolution and reformation of large scale icosahedral motifs -- a picture that is hidden from diffraction refinements due to averaging over the disorder and consequent loss of information concerning occupancy correlations.

description: Did the rise in food prices have a long-term impact on agricultural production? Using household-level panel data from seven provinces of Indonesia, we examine whether the 2007-08 food price crisis triggered farm investments. Empirical results show that (i) the food price crisis created a forward-looking incentive to invest, which can increase farm productivity in the long run, (ii) the expectation formation plays an important role in determining the impact, and (iii) the impact differs by the initial wealth; the positive price shock relaxed liquidity constraints among the poor. Implications on inequalities in income and productivity are discussed.

description: Different institutions working in domain-specific contexts document how sites and ob-jects are conserved, preserved, restored and reconstructed in different ways. There-fore, different domain-specific authority files and community-driven vocabularies exist, are limited to the respective disciplines and reflect the specific logics of the activities. To promote synergies and linkages between these stakeholders, we need cross-disci-plinary semantic alignment of these vocabularies. This addresses several phases of the research data cycle: capturing, inventorying, digitising, and providing, sharing and integrating related (meta)data for research purposes. The aim of the TRAIL is to link terms in individual isolated systems by means of mapping relations in order to create a network of authority files and community-driven vocabularies from the fields of resto-ration and conservation, building research, architectural history and heritage manage-ment. This enables a multi-perspective overview of the biographies of (digitised) ob-jects and makes it possible to relate objects in digital collections to each other. This will be done using two Software Application Services (SAS), DANTE and Cocoda. This will result in semantically aligned vocabularies, best practice white papers and OWL files defining the used relations.

description: At present there is no correct theory of evolution of F_2(x,Q^2) at small x. It is a mixture of hard and soft pomeron exchange and perturbative QCD very successfully describes the evolution of the hard-pomeron component. This allows the gluon density to be calculated. It is somewhat different from what is conventionally supposed, but it leads to a clean PQCD description of the data for the charm structure function. Perturbative QCD breaks down for the evolution of the soft-pomeron component of F_2(x,Q^2).

description: QED cascades play an important role in extreme astrophysical environments like magnetars. They can also be produced by passing a relativistic electron beam through an intense laser field. Signatures of collective pair plasma effects in these QED cascades are shown to appear, in exquisite detail, through plasma-induced frequency upshifts in the laser spectrum. Remarkably, these signatures can be detected even in small plasma volumes moving at relativistic speeds. Strong-field quantum and collective pair plasma effects can thus be explored with existing technology, provided that ultra-dense electron beams are colocated with multi-PW lasers.

description: Chronic liver diseases progressively lead to cirrhosis, liver failure, and other complications. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and microspectroscopy imaging are rapidly advancing techniques with multiple benefits for early diagnosis, grading, and monitoring of a broad spectrum of liver diseases. FTIR provides a biochemical overview of a sample, which can be used to determine the need for further in-depth investigations. Numerous studies have showed that infrared imaging offers a great promise for understanding of disease pathogenesis compared to that of common histopathological investigations. Moreover, high-throughput infrared characterization of biofluids has attracted increased interests for a wide array of pathologic diagnosis. The use of infrared spectroscopy and microspectroscopy for diagnosis, grading, and monitoring of liver diseases requires an understanding of infrared microspectroscopy, sample preparation, data collection, analysis, and interpretation. This review provides a comprehensive and up-to-date review of FTIR spectroscopy and microspectroscopy characterization of biofluids and tissues related to hepatic diseases. Each section of this review highlights practical problems and solutions for conducting FTIR spectroscopy and microspectroscopy studies.

description: This article critically reviews the proposal for addressing the cosmological constant problem within the framework of supersymmetric large extra dimensions (SLED), as recently proposed in hep-th/0304256. After a brief restatement of the cosmological constant problem, a short summary of the proposed mechanism is given. The emphasis is on the perspective of the low-energy effective theory in order to see how it addresses the problem of why low-energy particles like the electron do not contribute too large a vacuum energy. This is followed by a discussion of the main objections, which are grouped into the following five topics: (1) Weinberg's No-Go Theorem. (2) Are hidden tunings of the theory required, and a problem? (3) Why should the mechanism not rule out earlier epochs of inflation? (4) How big are quantum effects, and which are the most dangerous? (5) Can the mechanism be consistent with cosmological constraints? It is argued that there are plausible reasons why the mechanism can thread the potential objections, but that a definitive proof that it does depends on addressing well-defined technical points. These points include identifying what fixes the size of the extra dimensions, checking how topological obstructions renormalize and performing specific calculations of quantum corrections. More detailed studies of these issues, which are well reach within our present understanding of extra-dimensional theories, are currently underway. As such, the jury remains out concerning the proposal, although the prospects for acquittal still seem good.

description: Using experimental auctions, this paper evaluates the impact of information on consumers’ willingness to pay (WTP) for nano-packaged food products. Positive, negative and neutral information about the risks and benefits of nanotechnology in food processing was presented to consumers to measure the influence of information on consumer WTP. Double hurdle model results show that the specific information about nanotechnology from various sources has a negative effect on the probability of consumers valuing nano-packaged products. For consumers who did value nano-packaged products, general and specific information about nanotechnology had a positive effect on their WTP for nano-packaged salad and apple sauce. The effects of information on the WTPs of consumer who valued the products were more idiosyncratic, varying across the type of product, prior knowledge about nanotechnology, age, income, gender, marital status, and education.

description: French Wine Business raises specific questions on organizational forms. Indeed, the pervasiveness of specific organizational forms such as family-controlled firms and cooperatives and the diversity of vertical integration strategies stress the question of agency costs and their effects on performance. In this paper, we use the Ang, Cole and Lin (2000) methodology to measure agency costs according to governance structure and vertical integration on a sample of 180 wine firms. The econometric analysis displays highly significant results which let think that (i) family-controlled firms may be subject to agency problems partly solved by the “outside equity” discipline, (ii) agency costs are not significantly higher for cooperative firms than for family-controlled firms, (iii) operating expenses increase with vertical integration for non-cooperative firms. One striking result is that contrary to non-cooperative firms, performance does not increase with vertical integration for cooperatives while agency costs remain low albeit vertical integration. One explanation is that agency costs may be seen as necessary expenses for success of vertical integration and cooperatives may not fill this requirement.

Implementation of Trauma Informed Care in a Primary Care Setting Using the Adverse Childhood Experience as a Screening Tool
Creators: name: Adepoju, Adedoyin
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2020

Background: The prevalence of trauma is widely unacknowledged in the primary care setting. Unfortunately, the injury that individuals sustained as children may continue to adversely affect their health as adults in various ways, including having risky health behaviors, early death, chronic health conditions, and low life potential. Prevention of trauma is crucial and can is achieved with consistent public health education. There are available treatments for childhood trauma, and the inclusion of primary care for screening is vital for quality care.
Purpose: The Adverse Childhood Experience (ACEs) is a screening tool that can be utilized to survey adult patients for childhood traumas.
 Methods: This quality improvement project was conducted at a primary care clinic and started by assessing the staff member's current level of understanding of trauma informed care. The staff training was then customized to fit the needs of the staff. Trauma informed care was then implemented with patients with at least three visits to the clinic being screened using the ACEs tool. The patients that scored four or more were offered a higher level of care with a mental health provider, medication-assisted therapy, or both. 
Results/Implications: Post survey analysis displayed that the instruction was successful based on the response by staff and implementation of TIC. Screened patients were amenable to treatment with mental health providers, but access to these providers in the local area was limited. The project's intent was met with the adequate addition of ACE as a screening tool in this primary care clinic.

description: H5N1 avian influenza viruses bearing the clade 2.3.4.4b hemagglutinin gene have been widely circulating in wild birds and are responsible for the loss of over 70 million domestic poultry in Europe, Africa, Asia, and North America since October 2020. During our routine surveillance, 13 H5N1 viruses were isolated from 26,767 wild bird and poultry samples that were collected between September 2021 and March 2022 in China. To investigate the origin of these Chinese isolates and understand their genetic relationship with the globally circulating H5N1 viruses, we performed a detailed phylogenic analysis of 233 representative H5N1 strains that were isolated from 28 countries. We found that, after they emerged in the Netherlands, the H5N1 viruses encountered complicated gene exchange with different viruses circulating in wild birds and formed 16 genotypes. Genotype one (G1) was predominant, being detected in 22 countries, whereas all other genotypes were only detected in one or two continents. H5N1 viruses of four genotypes (G1, G7, G9, and G10) were detected in China; three of these genotypes have been previously reported in other countries. The H5N1 viruses detected in China replicated in mice, with pathogenicity varying among strains; the G1 virus was highly lethal in mice. Moreover, we found that these viruses were antigenically similar to and well matched with the H5-Re14 vaccine strain currently used in China. Our study reveals the overall picture of H5N1 virus evolution and provides insights for the control of these viruses.
Charge Neutrality of the Color-Flavor Locked Phase from the Low Energy Effective Theory

description: We investigate the issue of charge neutrality of the CFL$K^0$ phase of dense quark matter using the low energy effective theory of high density QCD. We show that the local electric and color charge neutrality of the ground state in a homogeneous color superconducting medium follows from its dynamics. We also consider the situation of a spatially inhomogeneous medium, such as may be found in a neutron star core. We find that spatial inhomogeneity results in the generation of electric fields, and positrons/electrons may be present in the ground state. We estimate the concentration of charged leptons in the ground state to be $n_{e}\sim{10^2}{cm}^{-3}$ and consider their influence on the opacity of the medium with respect to the modified photons.

description: Smart surfaces that reversibly change the interfacial friction coefficients in response to external stimuli enable a wide range of applications, such as grips, seals, brake pads, packaging films, and fabrics. Here a new concept of such a smart frictional system is reported: a composite film of a plain-weave polyester textile sheet, and a thermo-responsive nematic liquid crystalline elastomer (LCE). The composite is deployed with retractable micro-undulations of the elastomer inside each weave mesh, enabling dramatic changes of the contact interface with the opposing surface on LCE actuation, which is induced e.g. by a change in temperature (T). At ambient T, the protruding viscoelastic parts of LCE in the nematic phase make contact with the opposing flat surface, resulting in a very high friction. At an elevated T (50C, isotropic phase), the undulations of LCE surface are retracted within the thickness of the textile, and the contacts are limited to small regions around overlapping textile fibers, lowering the friction dramatically. This effect is fully reversible on heating/cooling cycles. The surface undulations are spontaneous, i.e. fabricated without any lithographic or alignment techniques. The present composite opens a new way to practical uses of sheets/films with switchable friction enabled by stimuli-responsive LCEs.

description: Using CGS4 on UKIRT, we have obtained a 1.95-2.45 micron infrared spectrum of the primary candidate counterpart to the bright Z LMXB GX5-1. IR photometry by Naylor, Charles, & Longmore (1992) and the astrometry of Jonker et al. (2000) had previously identified this star as the most likely counterpart to GX5-1. The spectrum presented here clearly shows Brackett gamma and He lines in emission, for the first time confirming the identity of the counterpart. Similar to our previous spectroscopy of the Z source LMXBs Sco X-1 and Sco X-2 (Bandyopadhyay et al. 1999), the K-band spectrum of GX5-1 shows emission lines only. We briefly discuss the implications of this spectrum for the nature of the Z sources.

description: This paper studies the processing principles, implementation challenges, and performance of OFDM-based radars, with particular focus on the fourth-generation Long-Term Evolution (LTE) and fifth-generation (5G) New Radio (NR) mobile networks' base stations and their utilization for radar/sensing purposes. First, we address the problem stemming from the unused subcarriers within the LTE and NR transmit signal passbands, and their impact on frequency-domain radar processing. Particularly, we formulate and adopt a computationally efficient interpolation approach to mitigate the effects of such empty subcarriers in the radar processing. We evaluate the target detection and the corresponding range and velocity estimation performance through computer simulations, and show that high-quality target detection as well as high-precision range and velocity estimation can be achieved. Especially 5G NR waveforms, through their impressive channel bandwidths and configurable subcarrier spacing, are shown to provide very good radar/sensing performance. Then, a fundamental implementation challenge of transmitter-receiver (TX-RX) isolation in OFDM radars is addressed, with specific emphasis on shared-antenna cases, where the TX-RX isolation challenges are the largest. It is confirmed that from the OFDM radar processing perspective, limited TX-RX isolation is primarily a concern in detection of static targets while moving targets are inherently more robust to transmitter self-interference. Properly tailored analog/RF and digital self-interference cancellation solutions for OFDM radars are also described and implemented, and shown through RF measurements to be key technical ingredients for practical deployments, particularly from static and slowly moving targets' point of view.

description: In this article we specify a model of millet prices in the three West African countries of Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger. Using data obtained from USAID’s Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET) we present a unique regional cereal price forecasting model that takes advantage of the panel nature of our data, and accounts for the flow of millet across markets. Another novel aspect of our analysis is our use of the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) to detect and control for variation in conditions for productivity. The average absolute out-of-sample prediction error for 4- month-ahead millet prices is about 20 %.

description: The study examines the effects of Common Agricultural Program (CAP) assistance on the potential job creation in rural areas of Poland using the FADN annual observations from 2004 to 2009. Positive effects on hired paid labor (the measure of job creation) are associated with crop and LFA subsidies, two types of targeted subsidies, and decoupled payments available to all farms. The programs appear to have the expected result and the positive effects on job creation may help to slow the depopulation of rural areas. However, within agriculture, horticultural farms outperform all other types in terms of hired paid labor, while the primary agricultural area of Wielkopolska-Śląsk also spends more on hire paid labor than other regions. Future analysis with disaggregated data is necessary to better measure the CAP effects on hired paid labor implying job creation.
