Edward A. Rundquist was first, in 1936, to report increases in average IQs, in the journal School and Society. In his article he refers to a Master’s Thesis at the University of Minnesota by Fred P. Roesell, A Comparative Study of the Mental Level in Grades Seven through Twelve in Three Minnesota Towns in 1920 and 1934. Roesell subsequently published Roesell, F. P. (1937). Comparative mental ability of high school pupils in three Minnesota towns in 1920 and 1934. Minnesota Studies in Articulation.

Are the thesis and the 1937 article online? If not, can they be added to archive?

My question is based on the fact that PowerPoint, Photoshop and Illustrator have been routinely used to generate scientific figures as final PDF files, either single Images or for the final Assembled Figure for a paper, so I'd like to hear about experiences, and point of view regarding which one is best for good quality scientific figures publication, as well as advice, and why.

"Images" refers to either photos (e.g. IHC, IF, confocal imaging etc), graphs (e.g. qRT-PCR data, microarray hierarchical clustering etc) and tables.

"Assembled Figure" is the final figure X that you create before uploading on the journal page (it could be a collage of images (i.e. photos, graphs and tables).

Also, tutorials or suggested literature are welcomed.

We are currently trying to find out which climate and/or urbanization factors correlate with Leptospirosis in the Philippines. For this, we have gathered precipitation, land surface temperature, as well as NDVI, NDBI, and NDWI values from four urbanized cities, along with leptospirosis morbidity rates. What is the appropriate statistical method that can be used to compute for correlation in our case? Thank you in advance!

Why is Keynesian theory not considered as a theory of economic growth? Although it simply suggests that income, which Keynesian theory assumes equals output, can be changed by increasing effective aggregate demand, it all takes the case from the demand side rather than from the supply side.

Dear Research Community,

Your inputs are requested in understanding higher education classroom challenges for teachers while adopting hybrid and hyflex teaching modes. Kindly recommend research sources for further reading.

Thank you!

I want to use a MMF336118 strain gauge to measure strain on a bone. I tried to use a Wheatstone Bridge with an Opamp amplifier (LM358p) and connected the circuit to an Arduino for reading the output voltages but I could not see any changes in output voltage when I stretch the sensor.

As this specific strain gauge has 3 strain gauges inside of it, I connected each of them to a amplifier circuit (the circuit for one of the strain gauge outputs are shown in the attached picture)

I attached the MATLAB code, Arduino code and schematic of the circuit here.

Hi, I would like to know how to generate OVA peptide-pulsed dendritic cells in vitro.

Dendritic cell would be co-culture with OT-II T cells, and measured T cell proliferation.

1. How long do I need to incubate DC with peptide? I know two different times, but I don't know what is correct!

1) 37'c, 24h

2) 37'c, 30min

2. Please let me know the good concentration of peptide for OVA peptide-pulsed DC! [ in ug unit ]. In our lab protocol, 10ug/ml concentration would be recommended. But there are no cell number, so I want to know the good cell number and peptide concentration for in vitro work!!

for example) 1x10^6 cells with 0.5ug/ml concentration of peptide

3. 96 well plate is okay for in vitro work?

4. I heard that I have to co-culture the dendritic cell(OVA pulsed) and OT-II and also "additional OVA-peptide". In our lab protocol, 5ug/ml concentration would be recommended, is it okay?

5. I will co-culture the DC and OT-II in 3:1(DC:T) ratio. Is there any recommends?

All the seniors who made stock and protocol are graduated, so I have a hard time.

And there is no one to ask this...

I'm very happy to be able to share your experience!

Thanks for your help!!
