How Responsive Are Mortgage Lending Conditions to Flood Risk? The Case of the Netherlands

European Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study the link between flood risk and mortgage lending in the Netherlands, a country where approximately 60% of the population resides in flood‐prone areas. Using over 100,000 securitised mortgages issued from 2013 to 2023, our study concludes that credit terms are indistinguishable between areas with and without flood risk. When we use the

Stancu Curves in CAGD

Journal of Numerical Analysis and Approximation Theory, 2002
Starting from the one-parameter dependent linear polynomial Stancu operator, we consider the related polynomial curve scheme with one scalar shape parameter.

Blending Type Bernstein Operators

, 2021
The aim of my thesis is to examine the Bernstein Operators, which are linear positive operators and the properties of the New Generalized Operators. My thesis consists of four parts. The first part is an introduction and gives information about the parts that we will examine in the following chapters.

PREAMBULAR HISTORY: THE VIEW OF THE PAST IN KEY HUMAN RIGHTS INSTRUMENTS

History and Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article claims that the preambles of foundational human rights instruments, taken together, articulate a consistent view of the past. This view is firmly rooted in historical processes, embedded in metaphysical truths, and enacted in service of the future. Part 1 assesses the strengths and weaknesses of the “preambular approach to history”

Dynamics of High‐Growth Young Firms and the Role of Venture Capitalists

International Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Motivated by the substantial growth and upfront investments of venture capital (VC)‐backed firms observed in administrative US Census data, this study develops a life‐cycle firm dynamics model. In the model, startups choose the source of financing from VC, angel investors, or banks, depending on their growth potential, and invest in innovation.

Profiling Metacognitive Knowledge and Growth Mindset in EFL Vocabulary Learning

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Guided by the self‐regulated learning (SRL) framework, the present study investigates the associations between metacognitive knowledge and growth mindset in EFL (English as a Foreign Language) vocabulary learning, addressing a critical gap in the literature. While metacognitive knowledge, comprising person, task, and strategy dimensions, plays

The Second Ditzian-Totik modulus revisited: refined estimates for positive linear operators

Journal of Numerical Analysis and Approximation Theory, 2003
Direct theorems for approximation by positive linear operators in terms of the second order Ditzian-Totik modulus of smoothness are proved. Special emphasis is on the magnitude of the absolute constants.

Getting to the COR of Workarounds: A Resource Perspective on Deviating Usage of Critical Care Information Systems

Information Systems Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Workarounds in high‐hazard environments like intensive care units (ICUs) compromise safety and regulatory compliance. While prior research attributes these deviations to technology misfits and notes self‐reinforcing dynamics, the underlying mechanisms of aggravating workaround spirals remain understudied.

Exponential Bernstein-Durrmeyer operators

General Mathematics
Abstract In this paper we introduce an exponential variant of Bernstein-Durrmeyer operators. Regarding this new operators we obtain some convergence resultş a Voronovskaya type theorem and some quantitative estimates using the first order modulus of continuity and the second order modulus of smoothness and then ...

Explicit Methodologies for Normative Evaluation in Public Policy, as Applied to Carbon Budgets

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT What could philosophical or justice perspectives contribute to climate (and other applied philosophy) policy discussions? This question is important for philosophers on government policy committees. This article identifies two novel concerns about such contexts (which I call ‘contingent selection’ and ‘committee deference’) and systematizes ...
