Designing Feedback and Assessment for GenAI‐Assisted Digital Multimodal Composition in L2

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract The rapidly evolving use of GenAI leads to a crucial need for new approaches to instruction and assessment of language skills in DMC tasks. The study adopted a convergent mixed‐methods design within an 11‐week action research framework. The study was conducted with 12 Turkish tertiary‐level L2 learners based on a process‐genre pedagogy to ...

Nicotinic transmission and drugs in anesthesia : neuromuscular blocking agents and propofol : consequences for carotid body function

open access: yes, 2006
The carotid body is the global oxygen sensor of the human body. Acute hypoxia elicits instant hyperventilation mediated from the carotid body type 1 cells, where nicotinic transmission is a key component in oxygen sensing and signalling.

Temporal, species‐specific variation in activity patterns of bats (Chiroptera) along a boreal river basin in Västerbotten, Sweden

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Seasonal variation in photoperiods, energetic demands, and reproductive constraints are expected to strongly influence bat activity at high latitudes, yet empirical evidence from boreal systems is limited. We used passive acoustic monitoring to examine spatial, temporal, and feeding activity patterns of bats along a boreal river basin in Sweden (64°N ...

Backset-stationary and during car driving

open access: yes, 2008
OBJECTIVES: The aim of the study was to measure and analyze backset, defined as the horizontal distance between the back of the occupant's head and a point located on the ventral/top aspect of the sewn rim of the head restraint, with the car stationary ...

Contrasting properties of predation and scavenging networks governed by megaherbivores in an African savannah

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
For the first time, predation and scavenging networks are directly compared within a single ecosystem. Using an 8‐year dataset of African mammals, including megaherbivores, this study reveals distinct structural rules and body mass constraints, providing a scalable framework for studying consumer–resource dynamics and ecosystem function.

Gender Differences in Risk Preferences: Implications for Adoption of Climate Smart Agricultural Technologies

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The gender gap in risk preferences in rural farm households, with female farmers commonly viewed as more risk‐averse than their male counterparts, may have profound implications for addressing the gendered impacts of climate change. Understanding these gender differences and their drivers is essential for designing policies that enhance ...

AN URBAN MARKETPLACE UNDER PRESSURE: The Steady Gentrification Process of Porta Palazzo (Turin) Through the Eyes of Market Sellers and Policy Makers

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Marketplaces, crucial sites for low‐income populations as sources of affordable goods and social interaction, are at a critical juncture. They are experiencing decline due to the rise of shopping centres and neglect by public authorities, while at the same time being rediscovered as tourist attractions, sources of profit and tools for urban ...

Generation of surface plasmons by electron beam excitation

open access: yes, 2007
We report on the first demonstration of excitation of propagating surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) by injection of a beam of free electrons on an unstructured metal interface, providing a highly localized and intense source of plasmon waves.

Global Inequality of Opportunity in Education Decreased During the 20th Century

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We document changes in global inequality of opportunity in education for women and men born between 1941 and 1983, using individual‐level census and survey data on 46.7 million individuals from 95 countries, representing all major regions of the world.
