title: Replication Data for: Of Whites and Men: How Gender, Race, and Publication Impact Authorship Assignment in the U.S. Courts of Appeals

description: While authorship assignment has been studied extensively in the U.S. Supreme Court, relatively little is known about such decisions in the intermediate federal courts. Moreover, what we know about circuit courts relates only to published opinions (those which constitute precedent under the doctrine of stare decisis and, thus, influence policy). Little is known about authorship of less influential unpublished opinions. Distinguishing between the costs, benefits, and risks inherent in authoring published versus unpublished opinions, we develop and test theoretical expectations about how demographic characteristics of opinion assignors and assignees influence authorship across opinion type. We conduct empirical tests using an exhaustive original dataset containing all authored dispositive circuit panel opinions issued in 2012. The results reveal that white and male judges are more likely to assign white and male judges to write published opinions and less likely to assign them to write unpublished opinions. The substantive sizes of the discrepancies are somewhat modest, but our results indicate that judges from historically disadvantaged groups have fewer opportunities to shape policy and they shoulder a disproportionately larger share of the routine chore of resolving individual cases.

title: Replication Data for: Selecting More Informative Training Sets with Fewer Observations

description: A standard text-as-data workflow in the social sciences involves identifying a set of documents to be labeled, selecting a random sample of them to label using research assistants, training a supervised learner to label the remaining documents, and validating that model’s performance using standard accuracy metrics. The most resource-intensive component of this the hand-labeling: carefully reading documents, training research assistants, and paying human coders to label documents in duplicate or more. We show that hand-coding an algorithmically-selected rather than a simple-random sample can improve model performance above baseline by as much as 50%, or reduce hand-coding costs by up to two-thirds, in applications predicting (1) U.S executive order significance and (2) financial sentiment on social media. We introduce open-source software to implement these tools, which we hope can make supervised learning cheaper and more accessible to researchers.

title: Replication Data for: "Polar phasing and cross-equatorial heat transfer following a simulated abrupt NH warming of a glacial climate"

description: MITgcm model output and plot scripts corresponding to the manuscript "Polar phasing and cross-equatorial heat transfer following a simulated abrupt NH warming of a glacial climate"

Abstract

"A lag of about 200 years between abrupt Greenland warming and maximum Antarctic warming characterizes past glacial Dansgaard–Oeschger events. In a modeling study, we investigate how the cross-equatorial oceanic heat transport (COHT) drives this phasing during an abrupt Northern Hemisphere (NH) warming. We use the MITgcm in an idealized continental configuration with two ocean basins, one wider, one narrower, under glacial-like conditions with sea ice reaching mid-latitudes. An eccentricity-related solar radiation anomaly imposed over 100 years to trigger an abrupt NH warming and sea-ice melting. The Hadley circulation shifts northward in response, weakening the NH trade winds, subtropical cells (STCs), and COHT in both ocean basins. This induces heat convergence in the Southern Hemisphere (SH) ocean subsurface, from where upward heat release melts sea ice and warms SH high-latitudes. Although the small-basin meridional overturning circulation also weakens, driven by NH ice melting, it contributes at most one-third to the total COHT anomaly, hence playing minor roles in the SH and NH initial warming. Switching off the forcing cools the NH; by contrast, heat release continues from the SH ocean subsurface via isopycnal advection-diffusion and vertical mixing, driving further sea ice melting and high-latitude warming for about 50–70 more years. A phasing in polar temperatures resembling reconstructions thus emerges in the model, linked to changes in the STCs’ COHT, and SH ocean heat storage and surface fluxes. Our results highlight the potential role of atmosphere circulation and wind-driven global ocean circulation in the NH–SH phasing seen in DO events."

title: Solving the Paradox of Monetary Profits [Dataset]

description: Bruun and Heyn-Johnsen (2009) state the paradox that economics has failed to provide a satisfactory explanation of how monetary profits are generated, even though the generation of a physical surplus is an established aspect of non-neoclassical economics. They emphasise that our ability to explain phenomena like the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) will be limited while ever we are still unable to explain this fundamental aspect of capitalism. In fact this paradox can be solved very simply, using insights from what is known as “Circuit Theory”. In this paper the author shows how monetary profits are generated, and introduces a multisectoral dynamic disequilibrium monetary model of production.

title: Replication Data for: Reasons and Intentions for Expatriation of Volleyball Players

description: The objective of this work was to identify the factors that lead Volleyball players to change team and country to continue their career. There were 68 participants (48 current athletes and 20 former athletes), 43 men and 25 women, with a mean age of 27 years. Participants were divided into 2 research groups: G1 (International Athletes) and G2 (National Athletes). We used a questionnaire consisting of structured, open-ended and closed-ended questions. Analysis of the results was conducted through descriptive analysis and inferential analysis, both between groups and intragroup. The results showed that there was no difference between groups (p&gt; 0.05) and that the reason motivating athletes into the expatriation process, independent of the sample group, was the search for improved salary. It can be concluded that for the participants evaluated of this study that salary was the decisive factor in accepting expatriation and that expatriation is well received by the athletes. In addition, the results demonstrate that there is a need for strategies to prepare future athletes for the expatriation process, in order to better adapt it.
