Patent landscape analysis of inventions based on plant genetic resources for food and agriculture and related digital sequence information

open access: yesThe Journal of World Intellectual Property, EarlyView.
Abstract This article provides an overview of the patent landscape in relation to PGRFA‐based inventions involving naturally occurring (“native”) traits and related Digital Sequence Information/Genetic Sequence Data (DSI/GSD). In particular, it focuses on the potential of patent claims to limit others' uses of PGRFA and related DSI/GSD on which the ...

Differential Effects of Age, Linguistic Distance, Gender, and Education on English Proficiency: A Comparative Crosslinguistic Study of Immersion and Nonimmersion Learners

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract Do immersion and nonimmersion learners’ English grammaticality judgment test (GJT) scores reflect the same underlying processes in language learning? Drawing on data from Chen and Hartshorne's (2021) study, we argue that they do not. Using generalized additive mixed models (GAMMs), we found that age of onset was the strongest predictor of GJT ...

Input Variability in Foreign Language Verb–Argument Construction Learning: A Primary School Intervention

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract Input variability (i.e., varied experience with different grammar exemplars; “[talk/think/rant/wonder] about [god/bicycles/dogs]”) can improve generalization (i.e., “[Verb] about [Noun]”) and enhance learning. Controlled experiments show that input variability benefits children's generalization and extension of linguistic information from ...

Syntactic Surprisal Effects in Second Language English Reading: Electroencephalography Evidence During Naturalistic Text Comprehension

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract We examined neural responses to probabilistic syntactic information during skilled L2 reading. English L2 readers from Spanish, Korean, and Chinese L1 backgrounds, with varying levels of English proficiency, read naturalistic texts from The New York Times while electroencephalography (EEG) data were recorded.

Does self‐concept adjustment towards perceived social images predict recidivism? A longitudinal test of (one pathway of) the labelling hypothesis

open access: yesLegal and Criminological Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study investigated a possible mechanism of the labelling effect. Method In a longitudinal study with a cohort of N = 836 first‐time incarcerated young men, it was tested whether the perceived label as deviant by others would predict future recidivism and second, whether adaptation of the actual self‐concept to the perceived view ...

Development and Internal Validation of a Competing‐Risk Nomogram for Predicting Cancer‐Specific Death in Oral Cavity Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesOral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC) patients face competing risks of cancer and non‐cancer death. This study developed and internally validated a competing‐risk nomogram for cancer‐specific death. Methods A total of 84,456 SEER 17‐registry adults (age ≥ 20 years) with OCSCC (2000–2023) were identified.

Validated computational modeling to evaluate spatial inactivation of airborne pathogens by Far‐UVC irradiation

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Inactivation trajectories of virus‐laden particles in rooms with different ventilation rates as they move under the light of a variety of Far‐UVC devices. Abstract Recent experimental studies have indicated the potential for ultraviolet C irradiation at 222 nm (Far‐UVC) to be used in occupied rooms to safely reduce exposure to airborne pathogens.

IMF Conditionality on Corruption: The Politics of Good Governance

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We offer a systematic analysis of IMF loan conditionality on corruption and argue that the Fund's pursuit of anti‐corruption measures is tempered by two political costs. First, because corruption is politically sensitive, the IMF risks destabilizing recipient governments and provoking crises.
