Does public participation foster stakeholder support for policy proposals? Evidence from the European Union

open access: yesPolicy Studies Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract We examine whether and how public participation in policymaking contributes towards fostering stakeholder support for policy proposals formulated in the bureaucratic arena. We explain how key markers of procedural fairness describing both the participation process and policymakers' presentations of it during the decision justification stage co‐

Climate Data Agency: Intra‐Active Knowledge Production Between the Human and Non‐Human World

open access: yesTransactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Short Abstract In this intervention, we engage with Karen Barad's agential‐realist concept of intra‐action to explore how knowledge about climate emerges from the intra‐active entanglements between climate scientists and nature through processes of data collection, representation and interpretation.

Green Space Production as a State Project in Urban China

open access: yesTransactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Short Abstract We examine the politics of developing Chengdu's greenway project by advancing the concept of state entrepreneurialism through strategic embeddedness and tactical mobilisation. We define strategic embeddedness as the institutional integration of market into the state apparatus to achieve the state's strategic goals and tactical ...

This is not normal! (Re‐) Evaluating the lower n guidelines for regression analysis

open access: yesTeaching Statistics, Volume 48, Issue 2, Page 130-137, Summer 2026.
Abstract The rule of thumb that a sample size of n≥30 is sufficient for valid regression analysis is often cited but rarely scrutinized. This paper evaluates the minimum number of observations required by examining how distributional characteristics like skewness and kurtosis affect the convergence of estimated t‐statistics to the t‐distribution in ...

A Microfluidic Gradient Generator Post‐Modified by Two‐Photon Direct Laser Writing for Dynamic Particle Functionalization

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 21, June 5, 2026.
We present a Christmas‐tree‐shaped microfluidic gradient generator (MGG) that is equipped with dynamic trapping chambers, based on thermoresponsive microactuators. At room temperature, amine‐functionalized polystyrene beads are trapped inside the pNIPAM funnels and fluorescently labeled.
