Cost Behavior of Organic Versus Conventional Farms: Assessing Economic Resilience and the Ecological Dividend

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study empirically examines the cost behavior in organic versus conventional farming to assess economic resilience. Using Spanish FADN data (2015–2021), results show organic farms exhibit higher cost elasticity during output increases and lower elasticity during decreases.

A Review and Critique of Methods and Knowledge Gaps in Quantifying Spillover Effects from Protected Areas

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The sustainability of area‐based conservation initiatives depends on their value to society. Conservation often focuses inside protected areas, but the impacts of protected areas beyond their boundaries (spillovers) are critical for their social license.

Observer coverage and interaction rates determine the choice between design‐based and machine learning bycatch estimators for rare species

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Robust estimates of the magnitude of protected species bycatch are essential for effective fisheries management and marine conservation. Existing bycatch estimation methods typically struggle to accurately and precisely estimate the bycatch of rare species as a result of the statistical assumptions necessary to overcome infrequent encounters ...

Knowledge, Attitudes, and Perceptions of Evidence‐Based Dentistry Among Final‐Year Dental Students: A Multinational Study Across 6 Countries and 8 Universities

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Evidence‐based dentistry (EBD) refers to the use of the best available evidence in combination with clinical expertise and patient values to guide clinical decision‐making. Whilst evidence‐based medicine (EBM) is widely adopted in medicine, EBD is much less frequently used in dentistry. Research into dental students' views towards

Bias Adjustment for Mean Squared Error Estimation in M‐Quantile Models for Small Area Estimation

International Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary M‐quantile (MQ) regression provides a robust and flexible alternative to mixed models for small area estimation. However, several theoretical aspects remain underexplored. In this paper, a parametric bootstrap method is proposed to approximate the distributions of area‐specific MQ coefficients and applied to adjust the bias in the mean squared ...

Multidimensional Militarisation, Evidence From Mexico's War on Drugs

International Social Science Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article documents different dimensions of militarisation observed in Mexico since the start of the war on drugs. It argues that militarisation is a multidirectional phenomenon that is characterised by rationales that justify the use of illegal means to address complex issues, promising expediency and efficiency but rarely delivering on it.

Eight Years of Citizen Science Reveal Taxonomic Confusion Patterns and Dynamic Participation in the Monitoring of Vespa velutina in Spain

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The yellow‐legged hornet (Vespa velutina nigrithorax) is a successful invasive species in Europe, where its monitoring is partially reliant on citizen science (CS) initiatives. While CS is a powerful tool for early detection, taxonomic confusion and fluctuating participant engagement can limit its effectiveness.
