In Peru, for example, research has highlighted how legal reforms have been hindered by poor enforcement, under-resourcing and a failure to address core causes of violence against women.
For example, research has shown that a "dipole" has formed in the atmosphere over North America, with a high pressure ridge off the west coast, and a low pressure trough over the central and eastern portion of the continent.
For example, research has shown that African-Americans who believe AIDS is a weapon loosed on them by the government (remembering the abuses of the Tuskegee experiment) are less likely to practice protected sex.

In the United Kingdom, for example, research has suggested that therapies such as herbalism, homeopathy, and osteopathy tend to be relatively more effective for users than approaches based on crystal therapy, iridology, and radionics.
