The Role of Language Dominance in Congruency Effects on Multi‐Word Unit Processing: Evidence From Early Bilinguals

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how the learner‐related factors of language dominance, encompassing language history, proficiency, use, and attitude, modulate congruency effects in multi‐word unit (MWU) processing among early bilinguals. Seventy Cantonese–Putonghua bilinguals completed lexical decision tasks measuring reaction time and accuracy for ...

Exploring Chinese International Students’ Intercultural Competence in Australian University Classrooms: Challenges and Opportunities

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With the increasing number of Chinese international students in Australian universities, intercultural competence has become a critical factor influencing their interactions with Australian tutors in university classroom settings. Existing research often examines students’ intercultural competence from a single‐method or single‐perspective ...

Partisanship, Deservingness, and the Attitudinal Policy Feedback Process for Social Policy

Policy Studies Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In an era of identity‐based partisan polarization, we examine whether social policies can still generate positive attitudinal feedback among beneficiaries. Drawing on nationally representative survey data, we demonstrate that partisanship conditions the policy feedback process through divergent perceptions of group deservingness.

MXene‐Boosted Nickel‐Based Metal‐Organic Framework Composite With Enhanced Conductivity and Catalytic Activity for Highly Sensitive Glucose Detection

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The design and synthesis of highly efficient electrochemical sensors are pivotal to electrochemical conversion technologies. This study successfully synthesized a composite material comprising two‐dimensional (2D) conductive MXene and nickel‐based metal–organic framework (Ni‐MOF) by stirring at room temperature.

Rational Design of Bimetallic MOF‐Derived Cu/Co@N‐C Nanocubes for Ultrasensitive Electrochemical Nitrite Detection

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT A facile coprecipitation‐pyrolysis strategy was employed to fabricate Cu/Co nanoparticles (NPs) embedded in nitrogen‐doped carbon matrices (Cu/Co@N‐C) through the carbonization of CuCo‐MOF precursors. Moreover, monometallic counterparts of Cu@N‐C and Co@N‐C were also prepared via carbonization of bimetallic CuZn‐MOF and CoZn‐MOF, respectively.

From Crisis to Resilience: Rethinking Urban Flooding and Groundwater Recharge in Bengaluru City, India

World Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Bengaluru, a primary metropolitan centre in India, is currently grappling with the dual crises of urban flooding and severe groundwater depletion. These challenges are driven by rapid urbanization, which has seen built‐up areas increase from 42% to 86% over two decades, resulting in a dramatic loss of vegetation and wetlands.

Examining the multi‐disciplinary origins of biophobia towards threatening and non‐threatening wildlife in a highly urbanised city in China

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 7, Page 2338-2352, July 2026.
Abstract Urbanisation is reshaping how people experience wildlife, reducing our shared spaces with local biodiversity. Fewer opportunities for human–wildlife interactions weaken our emotional attachments to nature and precipitate a loss of species knowledge and familiarity.

Visible‐Light‐Excited Optical Thermometry in Ca3Sc2Si3O12: Er3+ via an Efficient Eu2+ Bridge

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Er3+ ions are promising for optical thermometry due to their thermally coupled levels. However, their parity‐forbidden transitions result in weak and narrowband absorption, which restricts excitation to infrared lasers (e.g., 808, 980, or 1550 nm). Moreover, the single emission center inherently limits temperature sensitivity. In this work, we

Oxygen‐Vacancy‐Enriched Ho/Yb/Sm‐Doped In2O3 With Reconfigured Electronic Structure for Highly Selective Ethylene Glycol Sensing

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT In this work, In2O3 and three rare earth (RE)‐doped In2O3 composites (Ho, Yb, and Sm‐doped) were prepared via the hydrothermal method. Compared with In2O3 sensors, those fabricated from the three composite materials (RE–In2O3) exhibit varying degrees of enhanced response toward ethylene glycol (EG) gas. At 35% relative humidity (RH) and 250°C,
