Drinking high amounts of alcohol as a short-term mating strategy : the impact of short-term mating motivations on young adultsU+2019 drinking behavior Ghent University
Inclusive search for a vector-like T quark with charge View the MathML source in pp collisions at View the MathML source Vrije Universiteit Brussel University of Antwerp Ghent University
A search is performed for a massive new vector-like quark T, with charge View the MathML source, that is pair produced together with its antiparticle in proton-proton collisions. The data were collected by the CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider in 2012 at View the MathML source and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 19.5 fb?1. The T quark is assumed to decay into three different final states, bW, tZ, and tH. The search is carried ...
HIV prevention through sport: the case of the Mathare Youth Sport Association in Kenya KU Leuven Ghent University
Sport has become a popular tool for HIV prevention, based on claims that it can foster life skills that are necessary to translate knowledge, attitudes and behavioural intentions into actual behaviour. Empirical evidence of the effectiveness of sport-based HIV prevention programmes is, however, sorely lacking. We therefore conducted a cross-sectional survey assessing sexual behaviour and the determinants thereof among 454 youth of the Mathare ...
HIV prevention through sport: the case of the Mathare Youth Sport Association in Kenya Ghent University
Background & Objectives In Kenya, some progress was registered with declines in new HIV infections and prevalence rates U+2013 the latest figures show an estimated adult (15-49 year) infection rate between 7.1% and 8.5% (UNAIDS, 2008) U+2013 but the epidemic remains a threat to the development of Kenyan society, especially after outbursts of violence following the elections of December 2008. Some of the preventive efforts have been done at ...
Freedom, counterfactuals and economic laws: further comments on Machaj and Hülsmann University of Antwerp
The article offers information on the economic methodology in extent to Austrian economics of economists Guido Hülsmann and Mateusz Machaj. Topics discussed include mitigating the implications of metaphysical free choice by adopting economic plan for prediction and modelling; problematic metaphysical status of human choice; and implified equation for capital accumulation..

Costs and benefits of multiple mating in a species with first‐male sperm precedence Ghent University
Different patterns of sperm precedence are expected to entail different costs and benefits of mating for each sex that translate into distinct predictions regarding mating system evolution. Still, most studies addressing these costs and benefits have focused on species with mixed paternity or last male precedence, neglecting first-male sperm precedence. We attempted to understand whether this latter pattern of sperm precedence translates into ...
Determination of the g-, hyperfine coupling- and zero-field splittingtensors in EPR and ENDOR using extended Matlab codes Ghent University
The analysis of single crystal electron magnetic resonance (EMR) data has traditionally been performedusing software in programming languages that are difficult to update, are not easily available, or areobsolete. By using a modern script-language with tools for the analysis and graphical display of the data,three MatLabÒcodes were prepared to compute the g, zero-field splitting (zfs) and hyperfine coupling(hfc) tensors from roadmaps obtained by ...
