Guidelines for Scale Development and Validation

open access: yesJournal of Consumer Behaviour, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Scales, serving as measurement instruments composed of carefully designed items intended to capture latent constructs, play a critical role in advancing consumer theory and marketing practice. Yet, developing and validating scales poses a formidable challenge due to the diverse methods required to ensure rigor and robustness.

Enabling Wide‐Temperature Range Li‐S Batteries via Asymmetric‐Coordinated Titanium Sites‐Implanted Graphene Single‐Atom Electrocatalysts

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
A Ti‐based single‐atom catalyst featuring isolated Ti atoms anchored on reduced graphene oxide (Ti‐rGO) has been successfully synthesized as a sulfur host material. This Ti‐rGO composite effectively integrates the robust adsorption capacity of Ti‐O5 coordination groups toward LiPSs with the rapid mass transport kinetics inherent to its porous ...

Study on fracture parameter calibration and failure characteristics of rock with hole and crack

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The SIF and plastic zone equations for a single hole and crack have been derived. The model's failure state leads to the identification of four types of cracks. The plastic zone increases with increased brittleness and decreased crack length. Abstract Cracks within the surrounding rock of roadways significantly affect their stability and failure ...
