The Blind Spots of Aid Evaluation: Why Do Some Departments Capture Unintended Effects Better Than Others?

open access: yesManagerial and Decision Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how participants in competition react to gender stereotypes in performance.

Calibrating p‐values in ecology: a practical framework for integrating prior plausibility into statistical inference

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Misinterpretation of p‐values, coupled with insufficient consideration of the prior plausibility of ecological hypotheses, leads to overconfident and often unreliable inference in ecological research. To address this issue, we present a methodological framework for p‐value calibration that reinterprets conventional p‐values through minimum Bayes ...

Impact of Packaging and Recycling Systems on Material Recirculation: A Stage‐Decomposition Model

open access: yesPackaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
A system‐level view emerges from decomposing recycling into four stages (participation, collection, sorting and process yield), diagnosing constraints and targeting interventions. Cumulative equivalent uses (CEUs) quantify long‐term retention, revealing marginal improvements at high baselines generate disproportionately larger gains than low‐baseline ...
