title: Kenya (2013): Pretest of HIV Testing and Counselling

description: Population-based data indicates that HIV testing coverage in Kenya currently stands at 53.6% of the adult population, 58% of women and 42% of men have ever tested for HIV. Though rural residents are more likely to test for HIV than their urban counterpartsÂ urban residents are more likely to have ever been tested. Interestingly those with the highest and lowest levels of education as well as women and men aged 15-19 and 40-49 are those that are least likely to have ever been tested for HIV. While 93% of Kenyans are HIV negative, of the 7% that are HIV positive, as many as 4 out of 5 do not know their HIV status. Among those in relationships 90.4% were HIV concordant negative 5.9% were HIV discordant and 3.8% were concordant positive. Knowledge of a place to get tested for HIV is almost universal in Kenya; 92 percent of people know a place where people can go to get tested for HIV, though young people and aged 15-19 and people living in rural areas were among groups that were least likely to know where to go for a test. 1.2 Past HTC demand creation campaigns PSI/K has supported demand creation efforts for HIV counseling and testing services since the program started in Kenya 2000. Initial communication on HIV testing and counselling concentrated creating awareness on the need to have an HIV test amongst the general population as well as promoting awareness VCT services and increasing the perceived availability of VCT centres, culminating in the development of the VCT logo. Subsequent campaigns such as ÂChanukaÂ with the tagline Âchukua control wewe mwenyeweÂ targeted youth aged 15Â24 years and encouraged them to get to know their HIV s
tatus and take control of their lives. This to a successful spin off on that campaign targeting couples, dubbed Chanukeni pamoja with the tagline ÂOnyesha mapenzi yakoÂ. More recently The Jitambue Leo- targeting individuals and Jitambueni Leo Âtargeting couples, campaigns were developed to support accelerated HIV testing and counselling services during a defined period also known as rapid results initiatives. Testing Avenues In an effort to achieve Universal Access (80% correct knowledge of HIV status), the National AIDS and STI Control Programme (NASCOP) facilitated the piloting of a range of service delivery approaches for HIV Testing and Counseling (HTC) which included workplace, mobile, outreach, home-based and health facility-based services in order to increase opportunities for HIV testing. HIVÂdiscordant couples in married or cohabiting partnerships are vulnerable because they may have more frequent sexual contact and report lower condom use compared to partners in other types of relationships. ItÂs for this reason that itÂs important for couples to test so that in the event on of them is HIV+, they can get into care and treatment early enough to reduce the chances of HIV transmission.

title: Replication data for: Measuring Transparency

description: Transparency is often viewed as crucial to government accountability, but its measurement remains elusive. This concept encompasses many dimensions, which have distinct effects. In this paper, we focus on a specific dimension of transparency: governments' collection and dissemination of aggregate data. We construct a measure of this aspect of transparency, using an item response model that treats transparency as a latent predictor of the reporting of data to the World Bank's World Development Indicators. The resultant index covers 125 countries from 1980-2010. Unlike some alternatives (e.g., Freedom House), our measure -- the HRV Index -- is based on objective criteria rather than subjective expert judgments. Unlike newspaper circulation numbers, HRV reflects the dissemination of credible content -- in that it has survived the World Bank's quality control assessment. In a validation exercise, we find that our measure outperforms newspaper circulation as a predictor of Law and Order and Bureaucratic Quality as measured by the ICRG, particularly in autocracies. It performs as well as newspaper circulation in predicting Corruption. These findings suggest that data dissemination is a distinct, and politically relevant, form of transparency.

title: Replication data for: Keeping a Low Profile: What Determines the Allocation of Aid by Non-Governmental Organizations?

description: We refine an earlier cross-national analysis by Koch, et al (2009) on the determinants of location and allocation decisions by international non-governmental organizations. Using a more explicit causal framework, multiple imputation and coarsened exact matching, we come to qualitatively similar but analytically more robust conclusions. Shared colonial heritage and shared religion increase the probability that a large international NGO locates in a country. The share of exports from an NGO’s home country that go to a recipient country does not affect the level of aid allocated by the NGO in the recipient country. More harmonious UNGA voting between an NGO’s home country and the recipient country decreases the level of aid allocated by the NGO in the recipient country. We also provide more credible and easily interpretable measures of effect size, and we discuss implications and directions for future research.

title: Why tropical sorghum sown in winter months has delayed flowering and modified morphogenesis in spite of prevailing short days

description: Sowing certain late photoperiod-sensitive tropical sorghum varieties under short-day conditions in November-January in the northern hemisphere can result in a pronounced delay in flowering and prostrate, high-tillering forms similar to the rosettes in winter small-grain cereals. The cause of this phenomenon in sorghum has long been questioned and is often attributed to the effects of low night temperatures during this period. Monthly sowings, from December to March, in greenhouse compartments with two contrasting night temperatures and under field conditions with contrasting soil conditions were conducted over two years near Bamako, Mali, with three contrasting sorghum varieties. Dates of panicle initiation, rates of leaf primordia initiation at the stem apex, and rates of leaf appearance were observed. In the greenhouse, colder night temperatures were found to have no effect on prolonging vegetative-phase duration when measured in thermal time and on plant development. Although a prolonged vegetative phase and prostrate forms were observed under field conditions, these were not observed in the greenhouse experiments despite having similar temperature conditions. Although the higher soil fertility of the potting soil increased the development rates slightly, and reduced the vegetative phase relative to natural soil conditions in the field, this difference between greenhouse and field growth remained when a comparison was made between plants grown in pots. Thus, it appears that the greenhouse glass had masked the UV component of sunlight, which would mediate the cue responsible for the delayed flowering and modified morphogenesis. This cue, which h
as strongly contrasting effects between October and November sowings, could be the daily changes in the sunrise and sunset hour that have negative values from November to July.

title: Replication Data for: International Status Concerns and Domestic Support for Political Leaders

description: We study how international status concerns among the public affect support for political leaders, arguing that because status competition is pervasive in social life and because international status competition entails high-profile displays of scientific or martial savvy, the public is likely to be attuned to the status implications of foreign policy crises. We test this argument in seven survey experiments across four issue areas. The results show that adverse outcomes in world affairs increase expectations of international status loss and reduce presidential approval. Analysis of open-ended survey responses reveals that the public views international status in much the same way that international relations scholars do: it is multidimensional, positional, and instrumentally useful. Taken together, our results suggest that the public's international status concerns have significant implications for leaders and offer new insight into how the public parses the implications of events abroad.

title: Availability of Zinc to Different Organic Ligands Under Reduced Conditions in Constrasting Rice Soils

description: Rice plants sometimes exude organic acids or phytosiderophores into the soil through the roots. These compounds chelate metal cations, such as Zn2+, increasing the availability for nutrient uptake by the plant. And because the chemistry of flooded soils causes many changes in the type and concentration of the cations that are present to react with these chelating compounds, it is expected that the effectiveness of root exudates to mobilize Zn will vary depending on soil conditions (Lombnaes et al 2008). It is therefore important to understand how these ligands interact with Zn in various soil types. The objective of the study was to extract Zn from farmers' fields from selected areas in the Philippines with contrasting properties to compare the extraction capacity of three ligands representing different types of root exudates.

title: Replication Data for: Does Russian Election Interference Damage Support for U.S. Alliances? The Case of Japan

description: Scholars and practitioners often argue that the United States’ identity as a democracy contributes to the effectiveness and endurance of U.S. military alliances. One way to test this claim is to ask: what would happen if citizens of allied countries came to perceive U.S.~democracy as severely flawed or diminished? In the context of now well-documented Russian interference in recent U.S.~elections, we examine whether Russia’s election interference and its perceived impact on American democracy damage foreign public opinion about the U.S. The results of our survey experiment fielded in Japan suggest that information about successful Russian election interference—i.e., interference that had an impact on the election outcome—reduces foreign citizens’ faith in the U.S. as an ally. This pattern most clearly manifests in reduced belief in the U.S. capacity to defend Japan. Our study sheds light on the connections between the image of the U.S., both as a trustworthy and effective state, and the foreign public’s attitudes toward U.S. alliances, with theoretical and practical implications.

title: Effect of rice establishment methods on weedy rice (Oryza sativa L.) infestation and grain yield of cultivated rice (O. sativa L.) in Sri Lanka

description: Weedy rice is a great threat to rice production in Sri Lanka. Selective herbicides to manage weedy rice in conventional rice cultivars are not available in Sri Lanka. In the absence of appropriate chemical control measures, cultural approaches may help to achieve effective control of weedy rice. A study was conducted in two consecutive seasons in farmersÂÂ fields at three sites (Atalla, Samanthurai, and Girithale villages) in Sri Lanka to evaluate the effect of different establishment methods (farmersÂÂ practice, random broadcast, row seeding, seedling broadcast, and transplanted rice) on weedy rice infestation and rice yield. The farmersÃ¢ÂÂ practice had a higher number of weedy rice panicles (60-80 m-2) than the random broadcast (39-48 panicles m-2), seedling broadcast (3-15 panicles m-2), and transplanted rice (1.3-3.0 panicles m-2) methods. The use of clean rice seeds in the random broadcast method reduced weedy rice seed production by 29-41% compared with the farmersÃ¢ÂÂ practice (0.6-2.0 tÃ¢ÂÂ¢ha-1). Compared with the farmersÃ¢ÂÂ practice, the seedling broadcast method reduced weedy rice seed production by 71-87% and transplanted rice by 95-98%; and increased rice yield by 27-49% (7.5-9.1 t/ha). At all three sites, the farmersÂÂ practice resulted in the lowest grain yield (5.1-6
.7 t/ha). Compared with the farmersÂÂ practice, the random broadcast and row seeding methods increased rice yield by up to 21% and 31%, respectively. The findings suggest that the use of clean rice seeds, the use of a row-seeded crop, and the adoption of different rice planting methods may help to suppress the spread of weedy rice.

title: Effect of tillage systems, seeding rates, and herbicides on weed growth and grain yield in dry-seeded rice systems in the Philippines

description: In Asia, dry-seeded rice (DSR) production systems are increasing because of water and labour scarcities. DSR can be sown under zero-till (ZT) or after conventional tillage (CONT) operations. In these seeding systems, however, weeds are the main biological constraint. A study was conducted during the wet season of 2012 and the dry season of 2013 at the International Rice Research Institute to evaluate the effect of the tillage systems (ZT and CONT), seeding rate [low seeding rate (LSR) at 50 kg/ha, and high seeding rate (HSR) at 100 kg/ha], and weed control treatments (oxadiazon applied as pre-emergence, oxadiazon applied as pre-emergence followed by a commercial mixture of fenoxaprop + ethoxysulfuron as post-emergence at 21-24 days after sowing, and weedy) on weed growth and grain yield in DSR systems. The efficacy of herbicides 14 days after the application of post-emergence herbicide was similar between the tillage systems and between seeding rates. At crop harvest, weed biomass was higher in the ZT plots than in the CONT plots, and higher at LSR than at HSR. At the same time, herbicide applications decreased weed biomass by 73-96%, compared with the weedy plots. Compared with the ZT plots, CONT plots had 9-18% higher grain yield. Similarly, plots sown at HSR had 17-19% higher grain yield than at LSR. Weedy plots had 81-84% less yield than the herbicide-treated plots (3060-3380 kg/ha in the wet season and 5820-5950 kg/ha in the dry season).

title: Effect of Feed-Health Intervention for Improved Small Ruminant Production on Gender and Household Nutrition in Northern Ghana

description: Under the feed and health intervention study for improved, small-ruminant production in nine intervention communities in three regions of Northern Ghana, data has been collected on animal performance (average daily gain, flock dynamics), manure production (both 
quantity and quality), and cost and benefit, which covers the productivity, environmental,and economic domains of the sustainable intensification assessment framework. Necessary data has not been collected for the human and social domains regarding this feed-health intervention. The objective of this study was to collect data on the human and social domains to ensure that missing gaps that address these issues for smallholder farmers are highlighted to allow for subsequent interventions in the future to improve small-ruminant 
production or follow-on studies. This study entailed developing short survey instruments to collect data on how the feed-health intervention impacts on household food security and nutrition, and gender in terms of household labor distribution for the management of small ruminants, and benefit sharing from improved small ruminant production. The same households in the nine communities, ninety in total, involved in the feed-health intervention study conducted between 2015 and 2017 were involved in the study.&lt;/p&gt;
The objective of this study was to collect additional data on social and human domains to assess the feed-health intervention based on the five domains of the sustainable intensification assessment framework.&lt;/p&gt;
