Drews, Frank; Bermudez, Julio Cesar; Agutter, James A.; Foresti, Stefano A.; Westenskow, Dwayne R.; Syroid, Noah Daniel; Tashjian, Elizabeth | Between art, science and technology: data representation architecture | As our civilization continues to dive deeper into the information age, making sense of complex data becomes critical. This work takes on this challenge by means of a novel method based on complete interdisciplinarity, design process and built-in evaluations. The result is the design, construction, ... | Data representation; Visualization design; Data environments | 2005 |

Women on average live longer than men, live longer in disability or with chronic health problems, more often experience the deaths of spouse and friends, more often live alone in their later years, are significantly poorer than men of the same age, and more often institu... | Middle age; Old age; Family life; Women | 1992 |

Jameson, Kenneth P. | Data and social science rhetoric: policy and instruction | I believe that social science and empirical investigation can make important contributions to our understanding and to resolution of policy issues, but only if we are clear on the nature of social science and the role of quantification. In particular we must admit the limits of our truth claims, th... | Social sciences; Quantification; Empirical investigation | 1996 |

Forster, Richard R. | Explaining the presence of perennial liquid water bodies in the firn of the Greenland Ice Sheet | Recent observations have shown that the firn layer on the Greenland Ice Sheet features subsurface bodies of liquid water at the end of the winter season. Using a model with basic firn hydrology, thermodynamics, and compaction in one dimension, we find that a combination of moderate to strong surface... | 2014-01-01 | |

Smith, Ken R. | Ovarian cancer mortality among immigrants in Australia and Canada | This study examined the impact of changing environments on ovarian cancer by comparing age standardized mortality rates of numerous immigrant groups in Australia and Canada to those in the origin countries for the period 1984-1988. Mortality rates by length of residence in Australia (0-29 and 30+ y... | Ovarian cancer; Immigrants; Australia; Canada; Mortality | 1995 |

O'Rourke, Dennis H. | Patterns of genetic variation in native America | Allele frequencies from seven polymorphic red cell antigen loci (ABO, Rh, MN, S, P, Duffy, and Diego) were examined in 144 Native American populations. Mean genetic distances (Nei's D) and the fixation index FST are approximately equal for the North and South American samples but are reduced in the... | Gene frequencies; Amerinds; Genetic Distance | 1992 |

Drews, Frank; Westenskow, Dwayne R.; Bermudez, Julio Cesar; Syroid, Noah Daniel; Agutter, James A.; Strayer, David Lee | Evaluation of a cardiovascular display in a high fidelity simulator | Human error in anesthesia can be attributed to misleading information from patient monitors or to the physician's failure to recognize a pattern. A graphic representation of monitored data may provide better support for detection, diagnosis, and treatment. We designed a graphic display to show hemod... | Patient monitors; Visual information; Graphic displays | 2003 |

Utz, Rebecca L. | Procedure to correct proxy-reported weight in the National Health Interview Survey, 1976-2002 | Background: Data from the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) show a larger-than-expected increase in mean BMI between 1996 and 1997. Proxy-reports of height and weight were discontinued as part of the 1997 NHIS redesign, suggesting that the sharp increase between 1996 and 1997 may be artifactua... | National Health Interview Survey; NHIS; Proxy-reported weight | 2009 |

Brown, Barbara B. | Post-occupancy evaluation of wayfinding in a pediatric hospital: research findings and implications for instruction | A post-occupancy evaluation (POE) of way finding in a new pediatric hospital pointed to a wide range of areas where wayfinding aids could be improved. After initial walk-through evaluation tours and meetings with administrators, five more systematic methods were used to assess problems: staff and vi... | Hospitals; Wayfinding; Signage | 1997 |

Nicoll, Kathleen | The climate and environment of Byzantine Anatolia: Integrating science, history, and archaeology | This article, which is part of a larger project, examines cases in which high-resolution archaeological, textual, and environmental data can be integrated with longer-term, low-resolution data to afford greater precision in identifying some of the causal relationships underlying societal change. | 2014-01-01 |
