The Diffusion of International Environmental Agreements: The Role of Learning, Competition and Emulation

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International environmental agreements are key instruments for addressing transboundary environmental problems, but treaty ratification remains uneven and clustered across countries despite the proliferation of multilateral treaties. While existing research has concentrated largely on domestic political‐economic determinants, less is known ...

Tame discrete subsets in Stein manifolds

open access: yes, 2017
For discrete subsets in ${\bf C}^n$ the notion of being "tame" was defined by Rosay and Rudin. We propose a general definition of "tameness" for arbitrary complex manifolds and show that many results classically known for ${\bf C}^n$ may be generalized to semisimple complex Lie groups.

Impact of 14 days of head‐down bed rest and an exercise countermeasure on skeletal muscle atrophy, proteome and circulatory cytokines in older adults

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Prolonged bed rest and immobilization have deleterious effects on skeletal muscle mass and function, especially in older adults. These can lead to reduced physical capacity and quality of life. Previous experiments in younger individuals show that exercise can mitigate these effects, but evidence remains scarce and inconclusive in older adults.

Masculine Norm Adherence Among Australian Men: Latent Structure of the CMNI‐22 and Its Links With Mental Health Outcomes

open access: yesHealth Promotion Journal of Australia, Volume 37, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Issue Addressed Masculine norms influence men's health and wellbeing. In Australia, interest in the role of these masculine norms resulted in an assessment of masculine norm adherence being included in the Ten to Men Study, measured using the 22‐item version of the Conformity to Masculine Norms Inventory (CMNI‐22).

Automating creativity assessment in engineering design: A psychometric validation of AI‐generated items of the design problem task

open access: yesJournal of Engineering Education, Volume 115, Issue 3, July 2026.
Abstract Background Creativity is essential for engineering design, yet its assessment remains challenging due to the resource‐intensive nature of traditional evaluation methods. Purpose/Hypothesis(es) This study investigates the potential of automatic item generation (AIG) using large language models (LLMs) to create psychometrically sound items for ...
