A Note on the Determinants of IFRS Policy Choice When Accounting for Non‐controlling Interest and Goodwill

open access: yesAbacus, EarlyView.
This paper provides evidence on the choices made by European firms when measuring non‐controlling interest (NCI) and goodwill. Since 2009, IFRS 3 allows measurement of NCI either at fair value (full goodwill method) or at the proportionate share of net assets (partial goodwill method). IFRS 3 allows this policy choice on a per transaction basis.

Parental Age, Inbreeding and Incubation Method Influence Extremely Low Hatching Success in the Ex‐Situ Population of the Extinct in the Wild Sihek

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Reproductive success rates are a key parameter determining the recovery potential of ex‐situ managed threatened species, with high rates often being required to produce offspring for wild releases while ensuring ex situ population viability. Here, we quantify reproductive success rates in the Extinct in the Wild sihek (Guam kingfisher) and find ...

Modelling of FGM plate

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, 2018
The paper presents formulation of the problem of layered plates composed of two various isotropic materials. We assume that the first material M1 is characterized by the following parameters: Young’s modulus E1 and Poisson’s ratio 1, whereas the second one by E2 and 2, respectively.

Applying Anthropology to Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this article, we review how anthropologies from various subdisciplines, from social to evolutionary anthropology, are contributing to our understanding of female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C). We focus on four key questions: What are the origins of FGM/C? What functions and meanings are linked to FGM/C?

Medical trainees' emotions and their effects on perceptions of performance and team mood in team‐based simulations

open access: yesBritish Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Emotions affect performance in learning contexts; however, their effects on medical trainees' performance in highly ecologically valid settings, like team‐based simulation training, are not well understood. It is therefore imperative to know which emotions are experienced by medical trainees and the impacts of these emotions on ...
