Positive Solutions for a Mixed-Order Three-Point Boundary Value Problem for p-Laplacian

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2013
The author investigates the existence and multiplicity of positive solutions for boundary value problem of fractional differential equation with p-Laplacian operator. The main tool is fixed point index theory and Leggett-Williams fixed point theorem.

Questioning Your Brilliance in Physics: Differential Shifts in Fixed Mindsets by Grade and Gender

open access: yesJournal of Research in Science Teaching, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 514-530, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Students' domain‐specific mindsets and their beliefs about their capacity to improve through effort play a crucial role in shaping their experiences and decisions to persist in STEM disciplines. Physics is generally seen as a field requiring innate brilliance, which can reinforce fixed mindsets, particularly after initial setbacks in ...

Leggett-Garg tests of macrorealism for dynamical cat states evolving in a nonlinear medium

open access: yes, 2019
We show violations of Leggett-Garg inequalities to be possible for single-mode cat states evolving dynamically in the presence of a nonlinear quantum interaction arising from, for instance, a Kerr medium.

Soil Seed Bank Holds Some Potential for Natural Regeneration in a Semi‐Arid Rangeland

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Natural regeneration of degraded lands can be facilitated by the recruitment of plant species from the soil seed bank. However, the composition of soil seed banks in arid Australia has seldom been studied. We addressed this knowledge gap by quantifying the soil seed bank of chenopod shrubland and remnant Acacia aneura (mulga) stands in an ex ...

A Curated Review of ESA Publications for Teaching Ecology

open access: yesThe Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America, Volume 107, Issue 3, July 2026.
Abstract Since the early 1990s, the Ecological Society of America's journals have published hundreds of articles of direct relevance to those who teach ecology—especially at the undergraduate level. In an effort to draw attention to that literature, we conducted an analysis to identify well‐cited articles, as well as those that may be underrecognized ...

Positive Solutions to Periodic Boundary Value Problems of Nonlinear Fractional Differential Equations at Resonance

open access: yesInternational Journal of Differential Equations, 2016
By Leggett-Williams norm-type theorem for coincidences due to O’Regan and Zima, we discuss the existence of positive solutions to fractional order with periodic boundary conditions at resonance.

(How) Can Performance Appraisals Improve Employee Creativity? A Multidimensional Perspective

open access: yesHuman Resource Management, Volume 65, Issue 4, Page 1181-1197, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Performance appraisal (PA) is commonly used by organizations to manage their employees. However, the role of PAs in employee creativity remains ambiguous, with positive, negative, or even nonsignificant relationships reported in the literature. The aim of the present research is to address this ambiguity.

Existence of 2m-1 Positive Solutions for Sturm-Liouville Boundary Value Problems with Linear Functional Boundary Conditions on the Half-Line

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2012
By using the Leggett-Williams fixed theorem, we establish the existence of multiple positive solutions for second-order nonhomogeneous Sturm-Liouville boundary value problems with linear functional boundary conditions.

Triple positive solutions of BVP for second order ODE with one dimensional Laplacian on the half line

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Qualitative Theory of Differential Equations, 2012
By applying Leggett-Williams fixed point theorem in a suitably constructed cone, we obtain the existence of at least three bounded positive solutions for a boundary value problem on the half line.

Balint Groups: A Catalytic Collaboration Between General Practice and Psychoanalysis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Psychoanalytic Studies, Volume 23, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper explores the foundations of Balint groups, a method for studying clinical relationships and countertransference. Enid and Michael Balint began holding seminars with general practitioners at the Tavistock Clinic in 1950, aiming to apply psychoanalytic principles to understand the doctor‐patient relationship.
