It Takes Two to Tango: A Pluralist Account for Building Comprehensive Explanations in Human Evolution

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The evolutionary study of human dispersal is a key topic in biological anthropology. However, recent research has revealed inconsistencies between molecular and anatomical data across different timescales and geographic regions. Despite increased interdisciplinary dialogue, these discordances are rarely analyzed in depth or interpreted for ...

Behind Closed Doors: How Boardroom Silence and Implicit Theories Shape Corporate Governance

open access: yesCorporate Governance: An International Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research Question/Issue Why do directors, despite formal authority and oversight responsibilities, remain silent in the boardroom, and how does such silence shape governance outcomes? Research Findings/Insights Silence in boards is not a passive absence but a routinized governance practice.

Leadership and Accountability in Faith‐Based Institutions: Evidence From UK Mosques

open access: yesFinancial Accountability &Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates accountability in religious institutions on the basis of evidence obtained from interviews with relevant parties in UK mosques. We mobilize prior theoretical contention regarding servant leadership and constraints on personal accountability to expose perceptions of seriously deficient discharge outcomes.

Natural disaster risk salience and the strategic appointment of directors with sustainability expertise

open access: yesJournal of Financial Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how salient sustainability risks from near‐miss natural disasters influence board composition. Using a difference‐in‐differences design, I find that firms located in counties neighboring disaster‐affected areas significantly increase the presence of directors with sustainability expertise following the disaster.

Influence of the Residual Inductance of the Impulse Generator for the Generation of the Lightning Impulse Voltage

open access: yesIEEJ Transactions on Power and Energy, 2007
This paper describes the theoretical analysis of lightning impulse voltage waveform with an overshoot or oscillation caused by the residual inductance of the impulse generator. The oscillating lightning impulse waveform is expressed by the following formula;vout (t) = A {e-α1t - e-α2t sin(ωt+θ)/sinθ}where A, α1, α2, ω, θ are constants, respectively ...

Pragmatism, Dual‐Process Theory, and the Study of Reflective Cognition

open access: yesJournal for the Theory of Social Behaviour, Volume 56, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This article advances dual‐process theory (DPT) by developing a pragmatist framework for the study of reflective cognition. Although dual‐process models were introduced to sociology via Bourdieusian practice theory, Bourdieusian DPT has proven inadequate for theorising reflective cognition and action, with sociologists looking to pragmatism as

Predicting Electrically Generated Hydrogen Oxides From Ultraviolet Radiation Emissions

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Electrical discharges such as lightning and corona discharges generate extreme amounts of hydroxyl radical (OH), the atmosphere's most important oxidizer, enough for electrical discharges to be a globally significant source of OH. However, there are few field measurements of electrically generated OH (LOH), hindering attempts to better ...
