The epistemological irony of postcolonialism: A perspective from Paul’s flesh-Spirit dichotomy

open access: yesVerbum et Ecclesia, 2023
Among other things, postcolonialism claims to react against western epistemology. Although postcolonial approaches react to the traditional tendency in colonialism to silence the Other by political, social and economic structures and ideologies, non ...

Comparing Social Perceptions of Culturally Emic Protagonists Using the Stereotype Content Model A Scale Development and Adaption Process Across Four Languages and Eight Countries

open access: yesPsychological Test Adaptation and Development, 2023
: Cross-cultural comparisons are often based on a single itemset that is used in several cultures and languages being translated semantically correct. In contrast, a new, emic, approach measures the same construct with individually created items for each

Excitation of EMIC waves detected by the Van Allen Probes on 28 April 2013 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We report the wave observations, associated plasma measurements, and linear theory testing of electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) wave events observed by the Van Allen Probes on 28 April 2013.

Plea for an Emic Approach Towards ‘Ugly Movements’: Lessons from the Divisions within the Italian Pro-Life Movement

open access: yesPolitics and Governance, 2018
Studies of the pro-life movement have invariably been undertaken in relation to the pro-choice movement. The stress on comparison has tended to homogenize the two sides, thus understating their internal differences.

Modeling inward diffusion and slow decay of energetic electrons in the Earth\u27s outer radiation belt [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A new 3-D diffusion code is used to investigate the inward intrusion and slow decay of energetic radiation belt electrons (\u3e0.5 MeV) observed by the Van Allen Probes during a 10 day quiet period on March 2013.

Winners and Losers of the Process of Transformation as an Etic Category versus Emic Biographical Perspective

open access: yesQualitative Sociology Review, 2019
One of the common and schematic descriptions in the perspective of the 1989 breakthrough are two ways of dealing with it by people who are respectively called winners or losers of transformation.

Competing source and loss mechanisms due to wave-particle interactions in Earth’s outer radiation belt during the 30 September to 3 October 2012 geomagnetic storm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Drastic variations of Earth’s outer radiation belt electrons ultimately result from various competing source, loss, and transport processes, to which wave-particle interactions are critically important.

Value-Personality Link Measured With Novel Instruments Developed With an Emic Perspective

open access: yesEurope's Journal of Psychology, 2017
The first aim of this study is to investigate whether instruments developed with an emic approach in Turkey produce the same trait-value links obtained with studies using near universal instruments, and if emic traits and value concepts are composed ...

Wave-induced loss of ultra-relativistic electrons in the Van Allen radiation belts. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The dipole configuration of the Earth's magnetic field allows for the trapping of highly energetic particles, which form the radiation belts. Although significant advances have been made in understanding the acceleration mechanisms in the radiation belts,

High-resolution in situ observations of electron precipitation-causing EMIC waves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves are thought to be important drivers of energetic electron losses from the outer radiation belt through precipitation into the atmosphere. While the theoretical possibility of pitch angle scattering-driven losses
