Public Administration Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Public and nonprofit organizations exhibit high rates of female employment often attributed to sector structures and social roles. To better understand how individual behaviors dynamically contribute to these distinctive ratios, we deconstruct public and nonprofit employment into gendered patterns of attraction and attachment.

Education and Social Attitudes Toward Internal Migrants: Causal Evidence From China
Review of Development Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article examines the causal impact of educational attainment on natives' attitudes toward internal migrants in China, a question central to understanding the social foundations of integration in rapidly urbanizing societies. Using nationally representative data from the China Migrants Dynamic Survey (CMDS), we find that higher education ...

Singapore Journal of Tropical Geography, EarlyView.This paper examines how the politics of water governance intersected with germ suppression during US colonial rule in the Philippines. Drawing on historical materials and policy documents, we critically trace two interrelated processes of hydroterritorialization through which cholera outbreaks in the early 1900s spurred the production of sanitary ...

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract The purpose was to test: (1) whether the decline in maximal motor unit (MU) firing rate is an invariable response when maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) torque is reduced following a submaximal muscle fatiguing task; and (2) whether fatigue‐induced slowing of contractile speed and firing rate decline are co‐dependent. Ten participants (three

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Illustration of calcium spark function and ryanodine receptor (RyR) structure within a sedentary model of ageing. Upon sympathetic stimulation from 1 µM isoprenaline a linear response to calcium spark morphology occurred, accompanied by a biphasic progression of RyR remodelling across age.
