Twisting of Siegel paramodular forms
Let be the space of Siegel paramodular forms
of level and weight . Let and let be a nontrivial
quadratic Dirichlet character mod . Based on our previous work, we define a
linear twisting map . We calculate an explicit expression for
this twist and give the commutation relations of this map with the Hecke
operators and Atkin-Lehner involution for primes .Comment: 64 pages. In version 2, the paper has been shortened significantly
and lengthy, technical proofs given in a separate appendix. In version 3, two
typos are corrected. In version 4, we have included the full details of the
proof of the local twisting theorem in the paper and improved the results
with the L-function theore
Appendix to "Twisting of Siegel paramodular forms"
In this appendix we present an expanded version of Section 4 of our paper
arXiv:1404.4596, including the proofs of all of the technical lemmas.Comment: 60 pages. In version 2, two typos have been corrected. The appendix
has been incorporated into the main body of the paper and is therefore

Subjective and Non-subjective Information in Childrenās Allegations of Abuse
In this study, we were interested in how interviewers elicit subjective information in investigations of child abuse (e.g., descriptions of thoughts, emotions, opinions). Sixty-one interviews of children aged 4-12 years old were analyzed to determine the amount of subjective information versus non-subjective event details reported, and the type of question that elicited the information. Interviewers elicited more non-subjective than subjective information, although there was more focus on subjective information in the rapport-building phase than in the substantive phase when the allegations were elicited. Interviewer prompts and child responsiveness was congruent such that non-subjective questions elicited more non-subjective information, and subjective interviewer questions elicited more subjective information. The presence of subjective information in childrenās testimony can influence childrenās credibility, and the results of this study demonstrate that forensic interviewers play a significant part in the level of subjective information children provide
The Gender Reservation Wage Gap: Evidence form British Panel Data
Our findings suggest the existence of a gender reservation wage gap. The presence of children, particularly pre-school age children, plays an important role in determining the proportion of this gap that can be explained by individual characteristics. For individuals without children, the unexplained component of the differential is 99% compared to only 22% for those with pre-school age children, which might indicate that perceived discrimination in the labour market influences the reservation wage setting of females.reservation wages, wage decomposition
The gender reservation wage gap: evidence from British panel data
Our findings suggest the existence of a gender reservation wage gap, with a differential of around 10%. The presence of children, particularly pre-school age children, plays an important role in explaining this differential. For individuals without children, the explained component of the differential is only 5%, which might indicate that perceived discrimination in the labour market influences the reservation wage setting of females.Reservation Wages, Wage Decomposition
