Exploring Differences Between Similarly Structured State Higher Education Governing Agencies

New Directions for Higher Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research examining state higher education governing agencies often focuses on their centralization of authority and structure as key differentiating factors (e.g., consolidated governing agencies vs. coordinating boards vs. planning/regulatory agencies).

From Theory to Reality: Engendering Sense of Belonging Within Institutionally Supported Black Men's Initiatives

New Directions for Higher Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Given the importance of belonging as a goal in higher education, this article explores the experiences of 16 Black men engaged in institutionalized Black Men's Initiatives (BMIs) at three historically white institutions (HWIs). Drawing upon Johnson's (2022) socio‐ecological model of belonging and employing an interpretive phenomenological ...

Social Class Discrimination and Academic Success: A Person‐Centered Approach Among Adolescents Disadvantaged in Social Class

Journal of Adolescence, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Prior research indicates that social class is strongly associated with academic outcomes such as GPA. However, little work explores the role that social discrimination plays in this relation. This study examined the link between social class discrimination and academic outcomes among high school students.

Enhancing Soil Aggregation and Water Retention by Applying Kaolinite Clay to Post‐Tin‐Mined Land on Belitung Island, Indonesia

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Post‐mining sandy soils have low water retention, which causes soil particle separation and persistent soil erosion. Although organic matter is commonly used for soil restoration, it is lightweight, washes away during heavy rain, and decomposes under strong sunlight.

Different from the start: key dimensions of seedling traits of central European temperate grassland species

Oikos, EarlyView.
Plant traits and their tradeoffs are major determinants of plant functions. Although trait‐based frameworks should apply to plant functioning at any life stage, they have been primarily established for adult plants. Therefore, we lack comprehensive trait‐based studies of seedlings across multiple species to prove which key dimensions of trait variation

Inequalities in intraspecific plant–lemur interactions drive seed dispersal patterns

Oikos, EarlyView.
Biotic interactions occur between individuals and accumulate to shape species‐level interaction structure across a community. Skewed interaction structures, where a few individuals are highly connected and most have few interactions, are increasingly identified at the individual‐level.

Is a plant truly plastic? Nutrients and neighbours induce trait‐specific responses, but performance depends on response direction

Oikos, EarlyView.
Plants live in a heterogeneous world, where nutrient and neighbour distributions vary in space and time. Plants can respond to this variation through plastic responses in individual organs, which are assumed to be coordinated among traits to support a coherent, adaptive strategy, maintaining plant growth in varying environments.

Beyond Universal Models: Contextual Pathways Linking Student Psychological and Social Well‐Being to English Learning in Indonesia's General and Islamic Schools

Psychology in the Schools, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Differences in school culture and context can shape how student well‐being influences learning outcomes. This study addresses this gap by examining the relationships between psychological and social well‐being domains and English learning outcomes across Indonesian general and Islamic schools.

Universal Phase Identification of Block Copolymers From Physics‐Informed Machine Learning

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1433-1440, 15 March 2025.
ABSTRACT Block copolymers play a vital role in materials science due to their diverse self‐assembly behavior. Traditionally, exploring the block copolymer self‐assembly and associated structure–property relationships involve iterative synthesis, characterization, and theory, which is labor‐intensive both experimentally and computationally.

Simulated elephant foraging alters tree root exudation rates: Species‐specific responses and implications for belowground carbon dynamics in tropical forests

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Asian elephants play crucial roles in ecosystem functioning, and their interactions with plants influence above‐ and belowground carbon cycling. We tested whether their mechanically destructive foraging triggers short‐term, stress‐induced shifts in tree root exudation, an underappreciated pathway linking herbivory to belowground carbon processes.
