Economic inequality and academic perseverance: Evidence from 73 countries

British Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Academic perseverance is important for educational success, yet research has focused mainly on individual and proximal environmental factors, with limited attention to broader socioeconomic contexts. Aims This study examined whether national economic inequality was associated with students' academic perseverance and whether this ...

Survival among patients with systemic sclerosis‐associated pulmonary arterial hypertension in the Australian scleroderma cohort study

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Aims Systemic sclerosis (scleroderma; SSc) patients can develop pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), which is a leading cause of death. We sought to evaluate severity, therapeutic strategy and survival of SSc‐PAH in the Australian Scleroderma Cohort Study (ASCS).

Utility of the Clinical Frailty Scale, Charlson Comorbidity Index and ACS NSQIP Surgical Risk Calculator in major lower limb orthopaedic surgery

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background With major lower limb orthopaedic surgery performed in increasingly older and comorbid patients, accurate risk prediction is essential to guide perioperative management and shared decision‐making. Aims To compare the Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS), Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) and the American College of Surgeons National Surgical

Fibrillisation and Mechanical Properties of Plasma‐Treated Modification LDPE/PA6 Microfibrillar Composites

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 41, November 5, 2026.
Plasma treatment enhances interfacial adhesion between LDPE/PA6 via carbonyl group formation. PA6 droplet size heterogeneity reduced to ~850 nm after plasma treatment. Drawing at 160°C produces highly oriented microfibrils with faster throughput. Plasma‐treated MFCs show up to 500% tensile strength increase and 18% higher stiffness.

An examination of core beliefs in generalized anxiety disorder

British Journal of Clinical Psychology, Volume 65, Issue 4, Page 893-906, November 2026.
Abstract Objective Generalised anxiety disorder (GAD) is characterised by uncontrollable worries. Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment for GAD; however, manualised treatments rarely include interventions to target core beliefs. This study aimed to (1) explore the core beliefs about the self that are endorsed by individuals with ...

The effectiveness of implementation intentions in children: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

British Journal of Psychology, Volume 117, Issue 4, Page 1711-1758, November 2026.
Abstract Self‐regulation abilities in childhood are important for long‐term academic achievement and healthy development. As self‐regulatory abilities are still developing, ‘simple’ interventions are needed to foster self‐regulation. Implementation intentions are simple plans that could promote goal achievement in children.

Reconstructing Residual‐Solvent‐Involved Li+ Coordination in PVDF‐HFP Polymer Electrolytes for Stable Lithium Metal Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 79, 1 October 2026.
2,2,2‐trifluoroethanamide‐mediated coordination regulation reconstructs the local Li+ environment in PVDF‐HFP polymer electrolytes by weakening residual DMF‐dominated coordination and promoting TFSI−‐involved anion‐rich solvation. This strategy facilitates Li+ migration and interfacial desolvation, promotes the formation of a thin inorganic‐rich SEI ...

Efficient Hydroxyl Diffusion Triggers Surface Hydronium Enrichment and Bulk Proton Participation to Boost Alkaline Hydrogen‐Evolving Reaction

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 57, 13 October 2026.
For the first time, we shed light on the surface‐to‐bulk diffusion, induction, and reaction behaviors of OH−, H+, and H2O species on model oxides for alkaline hydrogen‐evolving reaction (HER). We first demonstrate that bulk OH− diffusion significantly affects the generation of proton sources and the diffusion/reaction behaviors of protons, thus ...

Mn2+ Ion‐Mediated Zn Dendrite Suppression and Reversible Stripping in Aqueous Zn‐Ion Batteries as Revealed by In Situ Liquid‐Cell TEM

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 55, 5 October 2026.
In situ EC‐LPTEM directly visualizes how Mn2+ ions regulate Zn electrodeposition and dissolution in aqueous electrolytes. Mn2+ suppresses heterogeneous growth and dendritic elongation while promoting more reversible stripping. These findings reveal additive‐regulated interfacial processes during Zn deposition and dissolution and provide guidance for ...

Chlorine‐Functionalized Silane‐Modified Copper Electrocatalyst for Enhanced CO2 Reduction to Multi‐Carbon Products

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 57, 14 October 2026.
A chlorine‐functionalized silane modifier (CPTMS) is introduced to cooperatively regulate CO2 reduction to C2+ products on Cu‐based catalysts. Dual‐functional interface sequentially enhances CO2 activation, intermediates protonation and C─C coupling, delivering a 5‐fold increase in C2+ faradaic efficiency (FE, 75% vs.
