What Does It Take? A Cross‐National Study Exploring Drivers for Willingness to Engage in Effortful Climate Action

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While much is known about what drives general participation in climate action, less is known about the drivers of actions that are explicitly linked to time, resource, or convenience constraints (i.e., effortful climate action). Understanding what drives effortful climate action is important to effectively tackle climate change, as many high ...

open access: yesDe Musica Disserenda, 2015
Nearly sixty extant manuscripts contain one or more of Boccherini’s six Trios op. 1 composed in 1760. It appears that copyists could follow different procedures when copying a work: they could create variants and errors, but also corrections ...

Low‐Cost Ambient Pressure Drying Approach for Highly Porous Nanomaterial Structures

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
We propose a simple, low‐cost method to dry highly porous nanomaterial structures at ambient temperature and pressure. Using low surface tension solvents, this technique minimizes capillary forces, preventing pore collapse and material shrinkage. This bypasses the need for expensive and size‐limiting critical point drying, enabling scalable production ...

Rasch Scaling of a Screening Instrument

open access: yesSAGE Open, 2014
The ERIraos Checklist (CL) is a screening instrument for assessing psychosis risk. Measuring CL data on a Rasch scale means that this scale locates individuals on a dimension of “proximity to psychosis onset” according to their current prodromal status ...

What Program for Love in the 21st Century? Thinking With and Beyond Luhmann

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From a sociological perspective, the paper examines how normative frameworks for intimate relationships have changed since the publication of Luhmann's Love as Passion (1982). Building on Luhmann's notion of a program for love, we discuss his claim that late 20th century love semantics were organized around a program of understanding. We argue
