Families raising children with ADHD often experience heightened stress and reactive parenting. While digital interventions promise personalization, many remain one-size-fits-all and fail to reflect parents' lived practices. We present…
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition with a wide range of behavioral and cognitive impairments. While genetic and environmental factors are known to contribute to its etiology, the underlying metabolic…
\noindent\textbf{Background} Prenatal glucocorticoid exposure alters cardiac development, but whether persistent cardiac effects in childhood follow a dose-response relationship remains unknown. We recently showed that ECG foundation models…
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a chronic neurodevelopmental condition characterized by repetitive behaviors and impairments in social and communication skills. Despite the clear manifestation of these symptoms, many individuals with ASD…
Mental disorders are among the foremost contributors to the global healthcare challenge. Research indicates that timely diagnosis and intervention are vital in treating various mental disorders. However, the early somatization symptoms of…
We investigate whether infant-directed speech (IDS) could facilitate word form learning when compared to adult-directed speech (ADS). To study this, we examine the distribution of word forms at two levels, acoustic and phonological, using a…
Hate speech is a growing problem on social media. It can seriously impact society, especially in countries like Ethiopia, where it can trigger conflicts among diverse ethnic and religious groups. While hate speech detection in resource rich…
The acoustic sensitivity of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) individuals highly impacts their intelligibility in noisy urban environments. In this Letter, the disturbance sensing level is examined with perceptual listening tests that…
Handwriting disorder (termed dysgraphia) is a far from a singular problem as nearly 8.6% of the population in France is considered dysgraphic. Moreover, research highlights the fundamental importance to detect and remediate these…
Debugging, finding and fixing bugs in code, is a heterogeneous process that shapes novice learners' self-beliefs and motivation in computing. Our Debugging by Design intervention (DbD) provocatively puts students in control over bugs by…
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a diverse collection of neurobiological conditions marked by challenges in social communication and reciprocal interactions, as well as repetitive and stereotypical behaviors. Atypical behavior patterns in…
This study investigates blood lead level (BLL) rates and testing among children under six years of age across the 42 neighborhoods in New York City from 2005 to 2021. Despite a citywide general decline in BLL rates, disparities at the…
Regression discontinuity design (RDD) is widely adopted for causal inference under intervention determined by a continuous variable. While one is interested in treatment effect heterogeneity by subgroups in many applications, RDD typically…
Objective: Personality trait can predict divers' behavioral performance underwater. However, we know very little about the innate personality of the junior college diving students. To gain a better insight of personality characteristics of…
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is an umbrella term for a wide range of developmental disorders. For the past two decades, researchers proposed the use of various technologies in order to tackle specific symptoms of the disorder. Although…
Monitoring the progression of neurodegenerative disease (NDD) has important applications in planning treatment and evaluating new medications. Whereas much work has focused on discriminating patients from healthy controls, or predicting…
Bipolar disorder (BPD) is a chronic mental illness characterized by extreme mood and energy changes from mania to depression. These changes drive behaviors that often lead to devastating personal or social consequences. BPD is managed…
Standard regression discontinuity design (RDD) models rely on the continuity of expected potential outcomes at the cutoff. The standard continuity assumption can be violated by strategic manipulation of the running variable, which is…
We study the theoretical properties of the interactive learning protocol Discriminative Feature Feedback (DFF) (Dasgupta et al., 2018). The DFF learning protocol uses feedback in the form of discriminative feature explanations. We provide…
A large and growing amount of speech content in real-life scenarios is being recorded on consumer-grade devices in uncontrolled environments, resulting in degraded speech quality. Transforming such low-quality device-degraded speech into…
