A Closer Look at Rape Myth Beliefs Among University Students: Comparisons and Correlates Based on Field and Stage of Study, Victimisation Experiences, Demographics and Psychological Traits

Behavioral Sciences &the Law, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disproportionate rates of sexual violence occur among university students, with rape culture and misconceptions about consent prevalent. To comprehensively examine rape myth beliefs among different student groups, 417 UK University students enrolled on courses in four distinct disciplinary areas; social sciences (n = 131), applied sciences (n =

Boosting Bifacial Output Power of Ag‐CIGS Solar Cells by Optimizing ITO Back‐Contact Thickness for Tandem Applications

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Optimized ITO back contact with pre‐Ga supply growth and Ag incorporation suppresses GaOx formation and interface recombination in bifacial CIGS solar cells. The devices achieve 17.25% front and 5.77% rear efficiency, delivering record bifacial power density up to 32.26 mW cm−2 in 4T perovskite/CIGS tandem architectures under enhanced albedo ...
