We estimate the effects Angle Grinder of repeated exposure to the Cognitive Reflection Test (CRT) by examining 14,053 MTurk subjects who took the test up to 25 times.In contrast with inferences drawn from self-reported prior exposure to the CRT, we find that prior exposure usually fails to improve scores.On average, respondents get only 0.024 addit

We present a short proof of the increased regularity obtained by solutions to uniformly parabolic partial differential equations.Though this setting is fairly introductory, our new method of proof, which uses a priori estimates Microfiber Towel and an inductive method, can be extended to prove analogous results for problems with time-dependent coef
