Publication Open Access Behavioral functioning of school-aged children with non-syndromic craniosynostosis(Springer, 2020) Zeytinoğlu Saydam, Senem; Özek, M. Memet; Crerand, Canice; Department of Business Administration; Marcus, Justin; Faculty Member; Department of Business Administration; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 124653Purpose: this study investigated the risk for children with non-syndromic craniosynostosis to develop behavioral problems during school age determined by the type of craniosynostisis, age at first surgery, and number of surgeries. Method: final sample consisted of 43 children aged between 6 years and 8 months and 17 years and 1 month (M = 10 years and 5 months). Behavioral problems were assessed with Child Behavioral Checklist (CBCL). Results: our sample had higher scores on the CBCL than the general population; specific elevations were observed including somatic complaints, aggressive behavior, social problems, attention problems, and thought problems and rule-breaking behavior. Behavioral functioning varied by number of surgical procedures, type of craniosynostosis, and age at first surgery. Conclusion: for school-aged NSC children's behavioral functioning, diagnosis specific patterns especially impacted by the first age of the surgery and number of surgeries.Publication Open Access Effects of policy reforms on firm innovation(Springer Nature, 2022) Şeker, Murat; Department of Business Administration; Ulu, Mehmet Fatih; Faculty Member; Department of Business Administration; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 283267The regulatory environment in a country is an important factor that affects firm performance. This study investigates the impact of a particular regulation-license requirements for certain firm activities-on the innovation performance of Indian firms in the 1990s. Using a unique firm-level panel data set, it shows that the removal of license requirements led to an eight percentage points higher innovation rate within two years following the reform. We measure innovation as the introduction of new product varieties that had not been produced by the firm before. It takes a longer time for firms to innovate in industries in which they were not producing before. The findings of this study are also robust to the inclusion of controls for other policy reforms that occurred during the period of licensing reform. They also persist in tests with different subgroups of firms and with the use of alternative estimation methods.
