A Risk or a Buffer? The Dual Role of Poverty in Community Perceptions of Child Protection Demand
Child &Family Social Work, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The relationship between poverty and child protection demand is complex. Using macro‐level data from 293 Finnish municipalities, this study applies hierarchical linear regression and mediation analysis to examine how poverty shapes community perceptions of child protection demand. The hierarchical linear regression findings reveal that poverty

Wave Propagation in Non‐Uniform Media by Linear Expansion of the Refraction Law
PAMM, Volume 26, Issue 1, March 2026.ABSTRACT The propagation of mechanical waves in an unbounded, non‐uniform medium can be described by using curvilinear coordinates centered at the source position. The Frenet coordinate system, with origin on a point riding a wave, is used as a basis for the curvilinear coordinates.
