How Does Carbon Offsetting Affect Firms' Emitting Behaviour? Global Evidence

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In light of the growing emphasis on corporate carbon reduction efforts, this study investigates the effectiveness of carbon offsetting in curbing corporate pollution levels using a global sample of firms. The analysis indicates that carbon offsetting is positively associated with corporate carbon emissions.

Turning ESG Into Inclusive Governance: Workforce Capabilities and Board Gender Diversity in GCC Firms

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) economies have increasingly integrated sustainability, corporate governance reform and social inclusion into their economic diversification agendas. Drawing on a strategic sustainability perspective, this study examines whether ESG performance contributes to inclusive governance by enhancing board gender ...

Disordered Eating Symptom Profiles in Low‐Income, Racially Minoritized Adults

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Eating disorder (ED) research has traditionally assumed that symptoms cluster in the same way across populations. If this assumption is incorrect, models and assessment tools developed with advantaged samples may miss substantial symptom burden in marginalized populations.

Striving for Significance: Development and Validation of the Desire for Significance Scale

European Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The need for personal significance (i.e., the desire for mattering, meriting respect and ‘being someone’) is a psychogenic need that guides a variety of human behaviours studied across multiple domains of social psychology. Despite its relevance, a validated measure of stable individual differences in the motivation to satisfy the need for ...

Agent‐based versus correlative models of species distributions: Evaluation of predictive performance with real and simulated data

Methods in Ecology and Evolution
Species distribution models (SDMs) have been widely used in ecology to understand how species relate to environmental variation. Most SDMs are correlative, and they lack explicit reference to the underlying processes, and therefore, the reliability of ...

Explainable and Uncertainty‐Aware Neural Modeling of Industrial CO2 Emissions With Economic, Energy, and Institutional Interaction Dynamics

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
A global panel of 5138 country–year observations from 165 countries (1990–2024) integrates industrial CO2 emissions, economic structure, renewable‐energy use, and institutional indicators. A dual‐input neural network combines engineered numeric features with learned country embeddings to forecast industrial CO2 emissions under rolling‐origin temporal ...

MARS‐Diff: Guarded Residual Diffusion for Leakage‐Disciplined Probabilistic Portfolio‐Loss Forecasting

Journal of Forecasting, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper develops Masked Asset–Regime Scenario Diffusion (MARS‐Diff), a leakage‐disciplined framework for probabilistic forecasting of multiday portfolio losses. The framework combines a regularized heterogeneous autoregressive model with exogenous predictors (HAR‐X) as its anchor, a train‐only masked representation of a high‐dimensional ...

Time‐Varying Structural Approximate Dynamic Factor Model

Journal of Forecasting, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study proposes a time‐varying structural approximate dynamic factor (TVS‐ADF) model by extending the approximate dynamic factor (ADF) model in state‐space form. The TVS‐ADF model considers time‐varying coefficients and a time‐varying variance–covariance matrix of its innovation terms to capture complex economic dynamics.

Beyond Prediction: Data, Baselines, Explanation, and Causation in Machine Learning for Food Insecurity

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
The gains from machine learning in nowcasting and forecasting food insecurity are still small and limited and cannot be observed in all countries. This review summarizes the public resources for data, corrects common misconceptions about model requirements, and establishes baseline requirements, explanations, causal inference, and equity in operational
