Grouped Stakeholders' Journeys: A Dynamic Social Impact Theory Perspective

open access: yesPsychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While customer journey research is proliferating, acumen of the broader stakeholder journey (SJ), which addresses any stakeholder's (e.g., an employee's, supplier's, or customer's) journey with the firm, remains more nascent. In particular, understanding of the role of psychological mechanisms in shaping collective or grouped stakeholders ...

Exploring probabilistic Bernstein polynomials: identities and applications

open access: yesApplied Mathematics in Science and Engineering
In this paper, we introduce the probabilistic Bernstein polynomials and derive new and interesting correlations among several special functions and special number sequences such as Euler polynomials, Bernoulli polynomials of higher order, Frobenius–Euler

Investigating conservation performance payments alongside human–wildlife conflicts: The Swedish lynx and wolverine protection policies

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Conservation performance payments are becoming an increasingly popular instrument to tackle human–wildlife conflicts. In Sweden, Sámi communities practicing reindeer husbandry receive performance payments as compensation for reindeer losses caused by lynxes and wolverines.

Heat engines for scale invariant systems dual to black holes

open access: yesCommunications Physics
According to holography, a black hole is dual to a thermal state in a strongly coupled quantum system. One of the best-known examples of holography is the Anti-de Sitter/Conformal Field Theory (AdS/CFT) correspondence.

The impact of COVID‐19 on public perceptions of wild meat in Central Africa

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Wild meat is a significant source of food and income generation in Central Africa. However, there is little knowledge of how the assumed link between COVID‐19 and wild meat consumption has been discussed by the media and received by the public. In this study, we conducted media content analysis of 264 articles published in 2019–2020 related to

The dynamics of wild and alternative meat consumption across Gabon, Central Africa

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐term overharvesting of wild animals for their meat threatens wildlife and the people dependent on wild animal meat for their diets and incomes. Interventions to reduce wild meat consumption must be built upon a complete understanding of the roles of wild meat and its alternatives within food systems.

Prescriptive Positivism: Discourse on Sustainable Development Goal Interactions and Perspectives for a Post‐2030 World

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are unlikely to be achieved by 2030, prompting debate about what should follow. Beyond revision, there is a need to critically examine what values and assumptions have shaped how the SDGs are conceptualised and operationalised.
