Systems of reciprocity in human–ocean relationships: Across time, place, language and culture
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract In the face of large‐scale marine environmental challenges, solutions that meaningfully capture the complexity of socio‐cultural and economic factors contributing to such issues—and their solutions—are urgently needed. This scoping review explores examples of reciprocity in human–ocean relationships to inform the conceptual underpinning and ...

Gender difference in speech intelligibility using speech intelligibility tests and acoustic analyses [PDF]
The Journal of Advanced Prosthodontics, 2010 The purpose of this study was to compare men with women in terms of speech intelligibility, to investigate the validity of objective acoustic parameters related with speech intelligibility, and to try to set up the standard data for the future study in various field in prosthodontics.Twenty men and women were served as subjects in the present study ...

Speech intelligibility studies in classrooms
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1986 Speech intelligibility tests and acoustical measurements were made in ten occupied classrooms. Octave-band measurements of background noise levels, early decay times, and reverberation times, as well as various early/late sound ratios, and the center time were obtained. Various octave-band useful/detrimental ratios were calculated along with the speech

Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Research Summary Financial resource acquisition is crucial for ventures but hindered by uncertainty. While signaling mitigates this uncertainty, its effectiveness hinges on venture novelty and the narratives used to clarify embedded information. Adopting a configurational lens, we examine the interplay among novelty, signals, and narratives in
