Large Deviations of the Giant Component in Scale‐Free Inhomogeneous Random Graphs
ABSTRACT We study large deviations of the size of the largest connected component in a general class of inhomogeneous random graphs with iid weights, parametrized so that the degree distribution is regularly varying. We derive a large‐deviation principle with logarithmic speed: the rare event that the largest component contains linearly more vertices ...

Causal Effects on Nonterminal Event Time With Application to Antibiotic Usage and Future Resistance
ABSTRACT Comparing future antibiotic resistance levels resulting from different antibiotic treatments is challenging because some patients may survive only under one of the antibiotic treatments. We embed this problem within a semi‐competing risks approach to study the causal effect on resistant infection, treated as a nonterminal event time.

Early Life Stress Affects Human Decision Making by Increasing Expectations of Volatility
ABSTRACT People learn most effectively when they can flexibly modify strategies to accommodate environmental changes. Here, we explore how chronic early life stress influences the ways individuals weight and prioritize new information when making decisions. To do so, we examined the choices of 11–16‐year‐old children in a reward learning task. Children

Conversational AI Agents: The Effect of Process and Outcome Variation on Anthropomorphism and Trust
ABSTRACT Organisations increasingly deploy conversational AI agents (CAs) in agentic roles where behavioural variations are inevitable. Prior work often conflates two distinct forms of variation: outcome variation (where success fluctuates) and process variation (where the path to completion varies).

Do robots boost productivity? A quantitative meta‐study
ABSTRACT This meta‐study analyzes the productivity effects of industrial robots. More than 1800 estimates from 85 primary studies are collected. The meta‐analytic evidence suggests that robotization has so far provided, at best, a small boost to productivity. There is strong evidence of publication bias in the positive direction.
