The Concordant Crop Sequence Boundaries improves the stabilty and accuracy of the USDA Crop Sequence Boundaries by altering the agglomeration method to be based on the simiarilty of crop sequences rather than on the longest shared boundary.
This work aims to provide accurate temporal field boundaries for the Contiguous United States through time.
The stimuli consisted of 200 items, among which 100 critical items included 25 quadruples as in (1a-d), with 50 more English-like items in which the gender of the clitic or strong pronoun reflected the gender of the antecedent (1a, b), and 50 less English-like items in which the genitive pronoun agreed in gender with the head noun of the genitive structure rather than with the antecedent (1c, d). Of these second 50 items, 25 had a female antecedent in the matrix clause as in (1c), and 25 had a male antecedent as in (1d). Similarly, half of the more English-like items (1a, b) involved masculine pronouns le and lui ‘3p.sing.masc’ and half involved feminine pronouns la and elle ‘3p.sing.fem’. Crucially, antecedent-gender-specified pronouns la and elle and antecedent-gender-unspecified pronoun son all allow the retrieval of the matrix subject as the antecedent. The 100 distractor items involved complex interrogative structures and permutations like target items, counterbalanced so that no grouping stood out.

E-Prime delivered the stimuli in a rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) reading task. The stimuli appeared word by word at the center of the screen in 36-point Consolas font, using normal orthographic conventions. They appeared in four blocks presented in random order. Within each block, stimuli were also presented in random order. Participants sat in a chair facing a computer monitor at a distance of approximately four feet. A fixation cross at the center of the screen preceded each item, lasting 700ms. The task was found to be hard but manageable to advanced L2 speakers in stimuli preparation. Due to the time required for E-prime to load each word and for the monitor’s refresh rate, the total presentation time per word was 566ms (300ms presentation, 250ms interstimulus interval, and a 16ms refresh rate between words) accommodating L2 speakers without being unnaturally slow for L1 speakers.
Respondents were trained to read questions like the stimuli and then accept or reject follow-up comprehension statements, which were presented in their entirety for a maximum of 3500ms. These comprehension checks were of several types: Some examined the propensity for an anaphoric interpretation, while others queried other aspects of the sentences. Participants quickly responded to the statements by pressing the left arrow key for ‘Yes/True’ and the right arrow key for ‘No/False.’ There was a training session of six items, which could be repeated before moving on to the experiment. In the training, all items were followed by a comprehension statement; in the task, only two thirds were. However, L1 and L2 speakers alike interpreted the pronoun as referring to the gender-matched noun phrase 70% of the time in critical stimuli. Naturally, a set of questions like our stimuli seems plausible in only a limited set of situations. Thus, respondents were introduced to a context involving two characters who were devoted followers of a television series. One of the characters, however, had missed some episodes and asked the other character questions to catch up.
This dataset was generated as part of a multi‑year research effort examining differences in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) knowledge among caregivers and providers across disciplines and levels of experience . This dataset consists of de‑identified survey data from the Autism Knowledge Survey–Revised (AKS‑R) and is provided in SPSS (.sav) format with variable names, labels, and value labels embedded. The file includes item‑level responses, derived knowledge scores, and basic demographic variables related to participant role and experience. No direct or indirect personal identifiers are included.
The core data set are citations, typically in a basically Scopus dataset format, for 92 reports published between 1987 and 2025. Included are various views of the data set and tables summarizing some of the characteristics of the data set. Also included are a few sheets explaining calculations that do one of two things: convert Return On Investment (ROI) data from the form initially presented in a report to the units used in our analyses; or how Return on Investment figures were calculated from reports that included enough data to enable ROI calculation but within which an ROI figure was not calculated.

Title:
PRISMA Data and Analyses Regarding University-based Research-enabling Facilities and ROI
The data was collected through an online Qualtrics survey. R and R Studio were used to subset the variables of interest that can be used in statistical analysis. No specific software or scripts, however, are required to access the final CSV file.
In addition to participant demographics, the number and type of herbs and spices used, supplements taken, specific diseases had, and number of prescription medications taken where analyzed in this dataset. Only this select information on the forms was loaded into the dataset. SPSS was used to run the dataset statistics.
All data was processed in Microsoft Excel. An exception is the TIRF microscopy data, which led to Microsoft Excel for final computations and building the histogram. Across all data, measurements were taken from either the absorbance or the fluorescence of a fluorescent molecule (CAM-ALEXA488, 496/515 nm) and capsid protein (280 nm).
