Tracking Climate and Environmental Attention: A News‐Based Composite Index

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study introduces the Climate and Environmental Attention Index, a composite indicator that tracks media attention to climate and environmental issues. Based on the Semantic Brand Score, the proposed index extracts significant signals from unstructured text, going beyond traditional measures of word frequency and sentiment.

A Meta‐Analytic Review of Board Characteristics and Carbon Emission Disclosure: The Moderating Effect of Contextual Factors

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The relationship between board governance and corporate carbon emission disclosure remains persistently inconsistent across the empirical literature, despite decades of accumulated evidence. Drawing on agency, stakeholder, legitimacy, institutional, and upper echelons perspectives within a single analytical framework, we conduct a three‐level ...

A practical guide to species trend detection with unstructured data using local frequency scaling (Frescalo)

Ecography, EarlyView.
Accurately measuring biodiversity change remains a central challenge in ecology. Beyond the general idea of quantifying temporal species frequency changes, several sampling‐related biases in data collection remain key methodological challenges to consider. Long‐term standardized ecological data are rare, and most available datasets exhibit considerable

Bipolar q $q$‐Fractional Fuzzy Aggregation Operators for Multi‐Criteria Decision‐Making in Optimal Renewable Energy Selection

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study introduces bipolar q‐fractional fuzzy sets and new aggregation operators to support renewable energy selection under uncertainty. The proposed decision‐making framework effectively integrates positive and negative evaluations, ensuring consistent ranking and robust performance, as demonstrated through practical analysis and comparative ...

Application of Non‐Isothermal Network Theory With Curved‐Channel Element Characteristics to Predict Melt Conveying in High‐Performance Single‐Screw Extruders

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a fast and accurate calculation tool to predict conveying of polymer melts in single‐screw extruders. Integrating generalized sub‐models into network theory allows to represent the complex screw shapes and material behavior more realistically. Tests on an industrial extruder show close agreement with experiments, outperforming older

The role of identification in data‐driven policy iteration: A system theoretic study

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
Abstract The goal of this article is to study fundamental mechanisms behind so‐called indirect and direct data‐driven control for unknown systems. Specifically, we consider policy iteration applied to the linear quadratic regulator problem. Two iterative procedures, where data collected from the system are repeatedly used to compute new estimates of ...

Beyond Efficiency: Sufficiency Strategies for Sustainable Development in the Housing and Building Sectors

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As the housing and building sectors face the urgent challenge of decarbonization, attention is increasingly shifting beyond conventional efficiency strategies toward the principle of sufficiency. This study explores how sufficiency can reshape the housing landscape, although there is no standardized understanding of sufficiency in these ...

Tokenism in Context: Unpacking Token Women Directors in the Corporate Boardroom

Human Resource Management Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tokenism in the corporate boardroom is a contemporary human resource management (HRM) issue for academics, practitioners and policy makers. This essay critiques the existing understanding of the concepts of tokens and tokenism in mainstream management and corporate governance scholarship within the particular context of women on corporate ...

Network Structure and the Efficiency Gains from Mergers: Evidence from U.S. Freight Railroads

The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The trade‐off between market power and efficiency gains is central to antitrust analyses of mergers, but empirical evidence quantifying efficiencies remains limited. Using transaction‐level data from U.S. freight railroads (1985–2005), this article quantifies merger‐induced cost efficiencies, driven mainly by eliminating inter‐railroad ...

From parent–teacher collaboration to young children's numeracy skills: An examination of the underlying mechanisms

British Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Growing evidence shows that parent–teacher collaboration benefits parents and their children. Yet, there is limited understanding of whether and how parent–teacher collaboration contributes to children's early numeracy skills. Aims This study examined whether parent–teacher collaboration is linked to children's early numeracy skills
