Discriminant validity and interrelations of conceptual and procedural knowledge in fractions and algebra: Evidence from confirmatory factor analysis

open access: yesBritish Journal of Educational Psychology, Volume 96, Issue 3, Page 1396-1418, September 2026.
Abstract Background Conceptual and procedural knowledge are two distinct types of mathematical knowledge. Measuring them with sufficient discriminant validity is challenging because they are typically highly correlated. Prior studies have demonstrated discriminant validity of paper‐and‐pencil measures separately for fractions and algebra.

Demographic Dynamics and International Trade: Stylized Facts and Theoretical Insights

open access: yesJournal of Economic Surveys, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 1806-1833, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Demographic change within a country has economic repercussions for other countries through international transactions. Ongoing shifts in population size and age structure across countries have important implications for international trade, operating through changes in market size, consumption preferences, and labor supply.

Markup Centrality and International Incidence in Global Production Networks

open access: yesReview of International Economics, Volume 34, Issue 4, Page 891-903, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper develops a framework to measure how markups amplify prices through global production networks and to attribute final‐demand price wedges to upstream country‐industry sources. The approach defines a compound markup as the ratio of observed prices to counterfactual pure‐cost prices that would prevail if all markups in the network were

Repelled Point Processes With Application to Numerical Integration

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Statistics, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 1101-1133, September 2026.
ABSTRACT We look at Monte Carlo numerical integration from a stochastic geometry point of view. While crude Monte Carlo estimators relate to linear statistics of a homogeneous Poisson point process (PPP), linear statistics of more regularly spread point processes can yield unbiased estimators with faster‐decaying variance, and thus lower integration ...

Free semigroups of large critical exponent

open access: yesJournal of Topology, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract For a convergence group equipped with an expanding coarse‐cocycle, we construct finitely generated free subsemigroups, which we call Bishop−−Jonessemigroups$\textit{Bishop--Jones semigroups}$, of critical exponent arbitrarily close to but strictly less than the critical exponent of the ambient group.
