The development of ambivalent sexism: Proposals for an expanded model

British Journal of Developmental Psychology, Volume 44, Issue 2, Page 281-299, June 2026.
Abstract The United Nations' Goals for Sustainable Development highlight gender inequality as a pervasive problem around the world. Developmental psychologists can help us understand the development and consequences of sexism in people's lives. I highlight ambivalent sexism theory as a promising framework for this work; and I offer recommendations for ...

A Hierarchical Bayesian Model for the Global Holocene Geomagnetic Field

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract We present a hierarchical Bayesian model of the global geomagnetic field for the last 8,000 years. The model is built solely with thermoremanent records, which include archeomagnetic and volcanic data. Building upon previous work, this model includes fewer approximations and treats model hyperparameters as probabilistic variables.

Machine learning rather than trial and error to close morphodynamical tuneable parameters: Application to a two-phase/two-layer model

Journal of Hydroinformatics
Physics-based numerical models often depend on several parameters to close. Some of them can be expressed using established theoretical or empirical closure formulations.

A palaeomagnetic study of Upper Pliocene volcanic rocks in the area of the Levant Fault near Homs, western Syria [PDF]

Geofísica Internacional, 2005
Thermal demagnetisation of samples from 75 sites in basaltic rocks, mostly within 5 km of the Levant Fault, identifies consistent directions of remanence in most sites. Normal, Reversed and Intermediate polarities are identified, with Reversed polarities

Wealth inequality and epidemics in the Republic of Venice (1400–1800)

The Economic History Review, Volume 79, Issue 2, Page 811-849, May 2026.
Abstract This article analyses wealth inequality in the Republic of Venice during 1400–1800. The availability of a large database of homogeneous inequality measurements allows us to produce the most in‐depth study of the factors affecting inequality at the local level available thus far for any preindustrial society.

Using the precipitation concentration index for characterizing the rainfall distribution in the Levant

Journal of Water and Climate Change
Climate change leads to altered spatial and temporal patterns of precipitation due to activating the hydrological cycle. This study analyzes the distribution of precipitation concentration over the Levant in 1970–2018 for the first time at various time ...

Strategic materials and state capacity in Renaissance Italy: The economic policies of ‘Roman saltpetre’ procurement

The Economic History Review, Volume 79, Issue 2, Page 757-780, May 2026.
Abstract Demonstrating the existence of a soaring demand for strategic materials in fifteenth‐century Rome, the article pioneers research in the late medieval trade in saltpetre, the irreplaceable, rare component of gunpowder, indispensable for waging war following the diffusion of artillery technology.

South German Silver, European Textiles, and Venetian Trade with the Levant and Ottoman Empire, c. 1370 to c. 1720: A non-mercantilist approach [PDF]

A recurrent and indeed persistent problem in European economic history – a veritable deus ex machina -- from medieval to modern times, is Europe’s supposed ‘balance of payments’ problem in trade with the ‘East’.

Motivations and Barriers to Men's Interest in Childcare: The Role of Norm Perception and Sexual Orientation Stereotyping

Journal of Applied Social Psychology, Volume 56, Issue 5, Page 333-344, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examined how sexual orientation stereotypes and perceived norms shape young gay and straight men's perceptions of motivations and barriers to interest in early childhood education and care (ECEC) careers. Gay and straight men (N = 364) estimated interest and then reported barriers and motivations influencing men's interest in ...
