How Democratic Backsliding Shapes the Entry, Non‐Entry, and Waiting of Potential Civil Servants
Public Administration Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Democratic backsliding is coupled with politicians' undermining of the civil service's professionalism and commitment to liberal democratic values. Existing research has examined civil servants' responses. Nonetheless, politicians' attacks on democracy and the bureaucracy also affect potential recruits' career choices.

Public Administration Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Public and nonprofit organizations exhibit high rates of female employment often attributed to sector structures and social roles. To better understand how individual behaviors dynamically contribute to these distinctive ratios, we deconstruct public and nonprofit employment into gendered patterns of attraction and attachment.

How Well Can Words Capture Facial Appearance? A Cross‐Linguistic Exploration
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract When describing faces, people often struggle with verbalizing facial features. Free descriptions seem to focus predominantly on aspects of faces that are inferred, for example, psychological traits, age, attractiveness, and so on, whereas facial features themselves are often described in a limited and imprecise fashion.

Goals Shape Dynamics of Attention and Selection for Value‐Based Decision‐Making
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract Humans can flexibly adjust how they make decisions to arbitrary goals. However, most theories in decision‐making focus on predicting one specific choice type (i.e., choosing the best option). Here, we link decision‐making and cognitive‐control research to test a theory that accounts for flexible adjustments of choice mechanisms to different ...

BUCKLING OF ANISOTROPIC PLATES BY THE RITZ METHOD [PDF]
, 2017 The Ritz method is used in the buckling analysis of anisotropic plates under several combinations of in-plane loads and boundary conditions. Ritz bases are generated from modified Legendre polynomials, and the plate rigidities are carefully chosen to ...

Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 4, December 2026.ABSTRACT A potential–based, first–integral formulation of the Navier–Stokes equations is used as a platform for modelling solitary waves in gravity‐driven film flow, giving rise to a nonlinear partial differential equation in complex form. Its subsequent modal decomposition—leading to an infinite set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs), followed ...

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 8, Page 1884-1890, 15 October 2026.Thyroid diseases are common among women of reproductive age and may be related to childhood cancer, but the evidence is inconsistent. This study of childhood cancer with maternal thyroid diseases and medication use in a population‐based case‐control study using Danish registries found positive associations between maternal goiter and overall cancer ...
