Discriminant validity and interrelations of conceptual and procedural knowledge in fractions and algebra: Evidence from confirmatory factor analysis

British Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Conceptual and procedural knowledge are two distinct types of mathematical knowledge. Measuring them with sufficient discriminant validity is challenging because they are typically highly correlated. Prior studies have demonstrated discriminant validity of paper‐and‐pencil measures separately for fractions and algebra.

Refining the timing of Middle Pleistocene (MIS 12 to MIS 6) ice advances into northern central Europe: sedimentological analysis and single‐grain luminescence dating of glaciotectonic complexes and tunnel‐valley fills

Boreas, EarlyView.
We summarize the current state of knowledge on the age of the Middle Pleistocene ice advances into northern central Europe and provide 25 new single‐grain feldspar luminescence ages of Elsterian and Saalian glacigenic sediments to constrain the age of the ice advances and their tentative correlation with marine isotope stages/substages.

Using a context‐informed perspective and intersectionality theory, this study aims to better understand the experiences of parents regarding their ...

Simultaneous modification of Thermotoga maritima encapsulin subunits to produce multivalent nanoparticle vaccines for non‐typhoidal Salmonella enterica

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This study investigates the modularity of encapsulin—a protein nanoparticle—by simultaneously inserting up to four distinct Salmonella epitopes within the encapsulin subunit. The encapsulin variants were transiently expressed in plants where they assembled into nanoparticles; however, their accumulation and stability varied depending on the ...

FOMC Meetings, Monetary Policy Uncertainty, and Mutual Fund Alpha

Financial Markets, Institutions &Instruments, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine the ability of mutual fund managers to generate a positive alpha in a consistent manner around the uncertainty‐generating Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meetings. The consistency of active equity mutual funds in generating a positive alpha over the successive FOMC announcements is positively related to future fund flows.

Organizational Fairness Perceptions, Employee Representation, and Firm Performance

Industrial Relations: A Journal of Economy and Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From a theoretical perspective, employees' fairness perceptions play a vital role in explaining the effect of employee representation on individual and firm‐level outcomes. However, the fairness argument has not been scrutinized in empirical studies yet. Using German longitudinal linked employer‐employee data, we show that particularly central

Carbon Disclosure and Climate Change Mitigation in the European Union: Diffusion and Dominance of Transparency Frames

JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract This article investigates the rise of governance‐by‐disclosure in the global climate regime, examining how the framing of carbon disclosure evolved into an effective governance norm within the European Union (EU). Employing discourse network analysis, we analyse the evolution of carbon disclosure frames in the EU between 2000 and 2020. We show

Banking with Inside Money: An Efficiency Analysis

Journal of Money, Credit and Banking, EarlyView.
Abstract We show that banks do not decentralize the first best in a nominal Diamond–Dybvig economy with inside money. Furthermore, state‐contingent deposit contracts do not expand the consumption possibility set to include the first best either. Central banks can improve welfare but only for savers and only with unconventional monetary policy. Finally,

Chasing – Or Escaping – The Limelight of Sustainability Media Attention? Narcissism's Opposing Effects for Women and Men CEOs on Environmental Performance

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract According to strategy research, firms with more narcissistic CEOs and firms with women CEOs exhibit better environmental performance (EP); however, we propose that better EP is unexpected when jointly considering these characteristics. Although positive attention theoretically drives more narcissistic CEOs' EP, by considering the gendered ...
