Free Trade Zones and Corporate ESG: Evidence From a Quasi‐Natural Experiment in China
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines how China's Pilot Free Trade Zones (FTZs) influence corporate ESG performance. Using a staggered difference‐in‐differences model on Chinese listed firms from 2009 to 2024, we combine coarsened exact matching (CEM) and geography‐based instrumental variables to ensure robust identification.

Towards a Developmental Retribution and Reciprocity Model (RRM): Implications for Youth Justice
Behavioral Sciences &the Law, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Youth justice systems are frequently justified by reference to developmental change, yet chronological age is often treated as a proxy for underlying psychological processes. This paper develops a Developmental Retribution and Reciprocity Model (RRM), integrating evolutionary criminology with contemporary developmental neuroscience to clarify ...

MOOC‐Empowered Blended Teaching Mode in Human Anatomy: A Structural Equation Modeling Analysis
Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Human anatomy, a cornerstone course in medical education, faces several challenges, such as teaching resource shortages, compressed class hours, and heavy student workloads. Traditional teaching models of anatomy often fall short in stimulating interest, promoting deep understanding, and enhancing learning engagement.

Three‐Step Synthesis Toward Fluorene‐Based Non‐Fused‐Ring Acceptors for Organic Solar Cells
Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.Applying a simple three step synthesis strategy leads to two fluorene‐based non‐fused‐ring electron acceptors, FHM‐Cl and FHM‐F for organic solar cells. The chlorinated variant delivers markedly higher efficiency due to broader light harvesting and favorable molecular packing, resulting in improved charge transport and reduced recombination losses ...

Optimal model‐based design of experiments for parameter precision: Supercritical extraction case
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract This study investigates the process of chamomile oil extraction from flowers. A parameter‐distributed model consisting of a set of partial differential equations is used to describe the governing mass transfer phenomena in a cylindrical packed bed with solid chamomile particles under supercritical conditions using carbon dioxide as a solvent ...
