title: Militarization Fails to Enhance Police Safety or Reduce Crime, But May Harm Police Reputation

description: The increasingly visible presence of heavily armed police units in American communities has stoked widespread concern over the militarization of local law enforcement. Advocates claim militarized policing protects officers and deters violent crime, while critics allege these tactics are targeted at racial minorities and erode trust in law enforcement. Using a rare geocoded census of SWAT team deployments from Maryland, I show that militarized police units are more often deployed in communities with large shares of African American residents, even after controlling for local crime rates. Further, using nationwide panel data on local police militarization, I demonstrate that militarized policing fails to enhance officer safety or reduce local crime. Finally, using survey experiments---one of which includes a large oversample of African American respondents---I show that seeing militarized police in news reports may diminish police reputation in the mass public. In the case of militarized policing, the results suggest that the often-cited trade-off between public safety and civil liberties is a false choice.

title: Natal nest locations of the Asian house rat (Rattus tanezumi) in lowland rice-coconut cropping systems: a coconut penthouse or rice bunds with water frontage?

description: Context. Rattus tanezumi is a serious crop pest within the island of Luzon, Philippines. In intensive flood-irrigated rice field ecosystems of Luzon, female R. tanezumi are known to primarily nest within the tillers of ripening rice fields and along the banks of irrigation canals. The nesting habits of R. tanezumi in complex rice-coconut cropping systems are unknown.
description: Aims. To identify the natal nest locations of R. tanezumi females in rice-coconut systems of the Sierra Madre Biodiversity Corridor (SMBC), Luzon, during the main breeding season to develop a management strategy that specifically targets their nesting habitat.
description: Methods. When rice was at the booting to ripening stage, cage-traps were placed in rice fields adjacent to coconut habitat. Thirty breeding adult R. tanezumi females were fitted with radio-collars and successfully tracked to their nest sites.
description: Key results. Most R. tanezumi nests (66.7%) were located in coconut groves, five nests (16.7%) were located in rice fields and five nests (16.7%) were located on the rice field edge. All nests were located above ground level and seven nests were located in coconut tree crowns. The median distance of nest sites to the nearest rice field was 22.5 m. Most nest site locations had good cover of ground vegetation and understorey vegetation, but low canopy cover. Only one nest location had an understorey vegetation height of less than 20 cm.
description: Conclusions. In the coastal lowland rice-coconut cropping systems of the SMBC, female R. tanezumi showed a preference for nesting in adjacent coconut groves. This is contrary to previous studies in intensive flood-irrigated rice ecosystems of Luzon, where the species nests mainly in the banks of irrigation canals. It is important to understand r
odent breeding ecology in a specific ecosystem before implementing appropriate management strategies.
description: Implications. In lowland rice-coconut cropping systems, coconut groves adjacent to rice fields should be targeted for the management of R. tanezumi nest sites during the main breeding season as part of an integrated ecologically based approach to rodent pest management.

title: Replication data for: The Left Variance: How Electoral Mechanisms Shape Leftist Presidential Behavior in Latin America

description: The emergence of left governments in Latin America is associated with votersâ dissatisfaction with neoliberal policy outcomes after democratic transitions. Although I believe this argument to be true, the explanations for why leftist governments behave differently are still incomplete. The main question this paper addresses is why some governments are social democratic whereas others are new-populist. I argue that presidents are molded into social democrats as a result of runoffs, and the presence of structured parties in legislatures. Given the need to convince the majority of voters to win the second round of an election, candidates are more likely toadopt moderate positions. Then, the likelihood of victory in a runoff is a function of candidatesâ ability to make compromises and respect agreements in campaign and in office. This is especially observed when many institutional veto players compose the party system. I analyze a novel data set covering every Latin American presidentialelection since 1990. My results show support for the claim that the presence of strong parties in addition to runoffs encourages politicians to adopt responsible agendas, consequentially decreasing their chances of having new-populist programs.

title: Replication Data for: The Legislative Legacy of Voter Identification Laws

description: Does the implementation of voter identification (ID) laws intensify conflict between legislative parties? We examine the consequences of the American states' modern wave of voter ID requirements for polarization in their legislatures. We theorize that these laws alter legislative candidates' perceived uncertainty about their districts' median voters, which creates centrifugal forces on their ideological positions and ultimately magnifies partisan divisions. To test this theory, we leverage plausibly exogenous variation in voter ID law implementation induced by the timing of post-enactment legal challenges. We find empirical support; a law going in force widens interparty ideological distance. This divergence may be stronger for Republican parties, does not appear in other contentious policies, and is not an artifact of the legislative agenda. Thus, a crucial legacy of these laws is the amplification of political conflict. By creating conditions that stifle compromise and bipartisanship, voter ID requirements indirectly threaten the quality of American democracy.

title: Replication data for: African Wood Density Database

description: This database provides air-dry wood density data for over 900 indigenous and exotic tree species found in Africa. Wood density is mass of wood per unit volume. It is an important trait for estimating stored biomass and carbon content per unit volume of tree stem (Chave et al. 2009 ). Air-dry density is expressed as a ratio of mass to volume (g/cm3) for wood at about 12% moisture content. This is a different measure to basic density, which is calculated as the ratio of oven-dry mass to green volume. Wood density reported in the scientific literature is commonly reported as basic density and this must be kept in mind when examining the density values in this database and comparing them with other data. Empirical relationships between basic density and air dry density for wood of many tree species have been developed: air-dry density at 12% moisture content is calculated by multiplying basic density by a factor of 1.22. Conversely, basic density can be calculated by multiplying air-dry density by a factor of 0.82. However, these conversion ratios cannot be assumed to hold precisely for all tree species reported here. The database is intended to serve as a guide to support tree and vegetation carbon monitoring work. Typically, a range of densities, obtained from measurements on wood samples from several mature trees, is given. It should be noted that wood density is affected by tree age and varies both radially and longitudinally within the tree, so is affected by sampling position. The environment also typically influences wood density. Furthermore, significant genetic variation in wood density within a species is commonly observed. The density values provided in this database should be used with t
hese caveats in mind. Tree species names are provided as both botanical and common or local names. Nomenclature for some of the tree species is out of date. Species are listed by country where their distribution is known. The African Wood Density database focuses mainly on woody trees grown in Africa. This database complements the South East Asia Database The database was developed in parallel to the development of the Global Wood Density Database Users are further encouraged to familiarize themselves with a manual on Measuring Carbon Stocks Across Land Use Systems

title: Effects of animal-assisted psychotherapy incorporating mindfulness and self-compassion in neurorehabilitation: A randomized controlled feasibility trial

description: The presented study evaluates a psychotherapeutic mindfulness- and self-compassion-based group intervention (MSCBI) with and without animal-assistance for patients with acquired brain injury and was designed as a randomized controlled trial conducted at a neurorehabilitation clinic in Switzerland (REHAB Basel). Both groups had access to treatment as usual and were followed-up until four weeks after completing the intervention. For the primary outcome, patients completed self-report questionnaires at baseline (t1; week 0), post-treatment (t2; week 7), and follow-up-treatment (t3; week 11). For the secondary outcome, patients completed self-report questionnaires regarding their emotional states before and after each session. Acceptability was measured via adherence to treatment, operationalized by the number of attended sessions. The attrition-rate was operationalized by the number of dropouts, assessed for each group separately.

title: Replication data for: Cambodia (2006): Malaria TRaC Study Evaluating the Use of Diagnostic Testing among Populations Living in Malaria Endemic Areas. First Round.

description: In 2003, PSI/Cambodia began to procure, distribute and promote Malarine (for treatment) and Malacheck(for rapid diagnosis), thereby providing populations at risk with access to high quality, nationally recommended products for the early diagnosis and treatment of p. falciparum malaria. In late 2006, after this survey was conducted, the program was expanded to include prevention measures as PSI launched two new products: Malanet an LLITN, and Malatab an ITK for the impregnation of conventional mosquito nets. PSI currently reaches 171 malaria endemic provinces with its products and communication messages, which include: mobile video unit shows, mass media, special events and training of private health service providers and retail outlets in correct diagnosis, treatment and prevention methods, especially in the context of the social marketed malaria products. y This baseline study consisted of a cross-sectional survey conducted in June and July, 2006. Stratified multi-stage sampling was used to collect data among 675 respondents, aged 19-55, living in villages classified under 3 domains (high, medium and low risk of malaria) within the 17 provinces targeted by PSI/Cambodia's malaria program.

title: Replication Data for: "Judicial Federalism and Representation." Jonathan P. Kastellec

description: I examine the relationship between judicial federalism and state-level representation. I develop a framework in which federal courts establish a ``federal floor" in a policy area, thus creating an asymmetry---states with lower levels of policy must shift policy to the floor, whereas states higher levels of policy above the floor are unaffected. I use the framework to recast the ``counter-majoritarian difficulty'' as an issue of federalism. To illustrate the framework, I present a quantitative analysis of the legalization of same-sex marriage in all 50 states, using data on public opinion, federal and state judicial decisions, and state-level policy.

title: Swaziland (2013): Qualitative Study Exploring Factors Related to the Timely and Regular Uptake of ANC and PMTCT Services by Women in Swaziland.

description: A recent literature review of research conducted in Swaziland and in the region by Lusweti Institute for Health Development Communication, a partner of PSI/Swaziland, reveals that several factors contribute to failure to take up early and frequent ANC and PMTCT services including: multiple and persistent forms of stigma and discrimination surrounding HIV and AIDS; gender roles and relations; socioeconomic status of both women and men; social norms and beliefs, lack of community involvement, particularly for men; absence of accurate and adequate knowledge on PMTCT; and supply side issues such as lack of qualified personnel, inhospitable attitudes of service providers towards men accompanying women to ANC and PMTCT sites, and lack of trust and confidentiality. As a follow up to the literature review, Lusweti Institute for Health Development Communication will implement this study in order to inform on gaps in knowledge related to ANC/PMTCT service uptake, and explore how timely and regular utilization of ANC/PMTCT services can be encouraged among women, especially with respect to the active involvement of men. This study was conducted as part of the formative audience research on factors relat
ed to regular and timely uptake of ANC and PMTCT services and the role of men in a bid to produce mass media edutainment activities not for only Lusweti or PSI but partners working with HIV in the country. The study used a qualitative method to collect data from the general public (men and women), health care workers as well as females above 50 years old considered to be aunts/mother in-laws. The robustness of the thematic analysis combined with the researcher triangulation lends credibility to the research reported here.

title: Replication Data for: The Side Effects of Central Bank Independence

description: Central bank independence (CBI) solves the time inconsistency problem faced by policymakers with respect to monetary policy. However, it does not solve their underlying incentives to manipulate the economy for political gains. Unable to use monetary policy, and often limited in their ability to use fiscal spending, governments can resort to financial deregulation to generate short-term political benefits. We show qualitatively and quantitatively that governments systematically weaken financial regulations in the aftermath of CBI, and that the effect of CBI is separate from an ideological shift toward liberalization. Our findings suggest that the growing financialization of the economy experienced by many countries over the last few decades is partly a by-product of central bank independence.

title: Replication data for: Passenger or Driver? A Cross-National Examination of Media Coverage and Civil War Interventions

description: Existing research on civil war interventions provides contradicting evidence about the role that the media plays in affecting the likelihood of intervention. To date, studies often focus on specific cases (frequently by the United States) leaving it unclear whether the media's influence extends more broadly. In this article we examine this question cross-nationally and argue that we need to account for the possibility that interventions also lead to increases in media coverage. We test our hypotheses using cross-national data on civil war interventions and media coverage. These data include a new measure of media coverage of 73 countries experiencing civil wars between 1982 and 1999. These data allow us to determine whether media coverage is more likely to drive leaders' decisions or follow them. Toward this end we employ a two-stage conditional maximum likelihood model to control for potential endogeneity between media attention and interventions. The results suggest a reciprocal positive relationship between media attention and civil conflict interventions. Specifically, an increase of one standard deviation in media coverage raises the probability of intervention 68%.
