The Evolving “Importance” of Social and Governance Measures Over Time
ABSTRACT Countries either converge or diverge in their social and governance performance. This dynamic directly influences the ability of social and governance indicators to differentiate between countries, with divergence increasing their information content and convergence diminishing it.

Score‐based tests for parameter instability in ordinal factor models
Abstract We present a novel approach for computing model scores for ordinal factor models, that is, graded response models (GRMs) fitted with a limited information (LI) estimator. The method makes it possible to compute score‐based tests for parameter instability for ordinal factor models.

This study reveals that suitable habitats for Asiatic black bears in China are highly fragmented, with poor connectivity between core habitats, making conservation efforts urgently needed. Using the MAXENT model, the study predicted the distribution of suitable habitats and planned potential low‐cost migration corridors, providing a crucial basis for ...

Expression and mechanisms of behavioral plasticity in large mammals
Abstract Behavioral plasticity, the alteration of behavior in response to stimuli, is becoming increasingly important in the context of human‐induced rapid environmental change. Theoretical and empirical studies suggest that the expression and magnitude of behavioral plasticity are likely facilitated or constrained primarily by two factors ...

In this study, we used scat analysis and DNA metabarcoding to analyze the spring diet of black bears in the neonatal range of a small, threatened wood bison herd in northeast Alberta to assess predation risk of neonate bison. Our results suggest that consumption rates of bison are low and that predation risk to neonate wood bison, during the RLBH's ...
