British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Quality in early childhood education and care (ECEC) is a contested concept and has generally been conceptualised by inter‐related indicators such as staff qualifications, educational environment, policy or child‐to‐staff ratios. There has been a more limited emphasis on how young children might perceive and experience quality.

Short-duration rainfall extremes in Sweden: a regional analysis
Hydrology Research, 2019 We investigate short-duration rainfall extremes in a 22-year long (1996–2017) time series of 15-min values from 128 stations in Sweden. Two different approaches are used to fit extreme value distributions (EVDs) to the data: generalized extreme value ...

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract This paper critically analyses how school readiness has been historically and discursively constructed in Early Childhood Education (ECE) policy in England over the past four decades. Using Bacchi's ‘What's the Problem Represented to be?’ framework and Foucauldian concepts of governmentality, the paper explores how school readiness has shifted

No advantageous merging in minimum cost spanning tree problems [PDF]
In the context of cost sharing in minimum cost spanning tree problems, we introduce a property called No Advantageous Merging. This property implies that no group of agents can be better off claiming to be a single node.

Journal of Consumer Behaviour, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Grounded in ambivalence theories, this research examined factors shaping consumer ambivalence toward AI‐generated content and investigated differences between commercial and noncommercial contexts. As a preliminary study, sentiment analysis of Reddit data using a support vector machine (SVM) revealed that most consumer sentiment toward AI ...

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.The axial‐bonding of aluminum(III) porphyrins was used to create two covalently linked special‐pair mimics to probe charge‐transfer between a porphyrin dimer and a C60 unit for artificial photosynthesis. Although excitonic coupling between the porphyrins is weak, incorporation of a second porphyrin markedly increases both the yield and lifetime of the ...

High‐Temperature Heat Pump Test Bench with n‐Butane (R‐600) Generating Steam
Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.This work involves building a test bench for a high‐temperature heat pump (HTHP) and analyzing the measurements. The focus is on steam generation using an HTHP to decarbonize process steam demand. The findings indicate that stable steam generation is possible, providing a higher heat transfer coefficient in the heat pump's condenser.
