The current dissertation consists of three interrelated studies examining the relationship between sleep functioning and adolescent adjustment. Although links between sleep patterns and internalizing problems and externalizing or problem behaviors in children and adolescents have been established in literature, several gaps remain in this research.

Abstract:
A method is described for finding the least squares solution of the overdetermined linear system that arises in the photogrammetric problem of bundle adjustment of aerial photographs. Because of the sparse, blocked structure of the coefficient matrix of the linear system, the proposed method is based on sparse QR factorization using Givens rotations. A reordering of the rows and columns of the matrix greatly reduces the fill-in during the factorization. Rules which predict the fill-in for this ordering are proven based upon the block structure of the matrix. These rules eliminate the need for

Research has demonstrated that family of origin environment impacts outcomes for individuals; however, the extent to which attitudes toward family impact outcomes is less clear.

The construct, known as familism, encompasses multiple aspects of individuals' relationships with their childhood families.

This paper studies productivity in the Andean region in detail between 1990 and 2018. To do this, a growth accounting analysis is carried out, considering adjustments for quality and utilization of production factors. Subsequently, the paper explores whether the productivity gap between the Andean region and developed countries results from an innovation shortfall (low R&amp;D investment level) or an accumulation problem. Several findings emerged. First, the absence of adjustments for quality and utilization of production factors generates more optimistic (and biased) estimates of TFP than whe

The analysis employs survival methods to model the effect of SFA and other macroeconomic factors on the hazard rate for debt spike events. We differentiate between debt accumulation trends and spikes to examine how SFA influences the likelihood of a spike once a country is already on an increasing debt trajectory.
