Symbolism and Substance: How Geopolitics, Organisational Design, and Continental Coherence Shape Africa's Multilateral Reform Aspirations

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT What factors shape African agency in global multilateral reform processes? Rather than a supposed pawn of geopolitical competition, Africa's proactive diplomacy for multilateral reforms is garnering increasing interest. Yet we know surprisingly little about variation in the pursuit of African agency by the African Union (AU) and African Groups

The three‐step test in international copyright—a global framework for generative AI training

open access: yesAmerican Business Law Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The training of generative artificial intelligence (genAI) models involves the processing of large datasets, which often include copyrighted materials, thereby raising questions of copyright infringement. These questions tend to center on whether such use constitutes fair use or falls under text and data mining (TDM) exceptions.

Auditor industry expertise and the predictive power of the deferred tax valuation allowance

open access: yesAccounting &Finance, Volume 65, Issue 1, Page 323-364, March 2025.
Abstract This paper investigates whether auditor industry expertise influences the predictive value of management earnings forecasts embedded in the deferred tax asset valuation allowance (VA). VAs depend on management's forecast of future taxable earnings and can provide investors with information about expected changes in future earnings.

Teacher–student relationships in practice: Student perceptions of positive teaching

open access: yesBritish Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Teacher–student relationships (TSR) significantly shape teaching and learning processes. Current research rarely leverages qualitative analyses of students' perceptions, leaving a critical gap in understanding how positive TSR manifest from students' perspectives.

How and when do peer deviant behaviours link to adolescent academic performance?: Longitudinal moderated mediation analysis using a Chinese national sample

open access: yesBritish Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Previous research has associated peer deviant behaviours with lower academic performance in adolescents. However, the mediation and moderation mechanisms underlying this relationship, particularly the moderating role of educational expectations, require further exploration.

Potentiation effects of the positive allosteric modulator PTC‐174 on NMDA receptors in neonatal male rat substantia nigra dopaminergic neurons

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Positive allosteric modulators bind to secondary binding sites on the receptor and alter receptor conformation and activation, changing agonist potency and efficacy. PTC‐174 is a novel NMDA receptor positive allosteric modulator that particularly enhances activity of receptors containing GluN2C or GluN2D subunits.

Real‐Time Conformal Maps and Parameterizations

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a simple algorithm to conformally map between two simple and bounded planar domains based on the concept of harmonic measure, which is a conformal invariant. With suitable preprocessing, the algorithm is fast enough to compute all possible conformal maps (having three real degrees of freedom) between the two domains in real time in

Story2Board: A Training‐Free Approach for Expressive Visual Storytelling

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present Story2Board, a training‐free framework for expressive storyboard generation from natural language. Existing methods narrowly focus on subject identity, overlooking key aspects of visual storytelling such as spatial composition, background evolution, and narrative pacing.

When do proxy advisors improve corporate decisions?

open access: yesEconomic Inquiry, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper studies the impact of proxy advisors on shareholder decision‐making. We posit two assumptions: (i) the board is at least as well informed as any individual shareholder; (ii) shareholders can condition their information acquisition on the proxy advisor's (PA) recommendation.

Under the cover of darkness: Foraging behaviour increases on cloudy, new moon nights in a pelagic seabird

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
While many visual predators feed exclusively during the day, others exploit foraging opportunities at night, although the efficiency with which they do so is strongly influenced by ambient light levels. We investigated the influence of variation in nocturnal light on the foraging behaviour of a small pelagic seabird, the European Storm‐petrel ...
