Journal of Clinical Psychology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objectives Mental health service users are responsible and autonomous individuals who can comprehend their own illness and recovery and therefore engage healthcare professionals in their care. Studies have demonstrated how service users feel more dignified, safe, and respected during mental health treatment when they are listened to by their ...

On certain transcendental numbers.
Michigan Mathematical Journal, 1984 Making use of the classic Lindemann-Weierstraß theorem and the Gelfond-Schneider theorem, the author derives a lot of interesting new facts such as Theorem 1. Suppose \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\) are algebraic numbers. Then \(e^{\alpha} \cos \beta\) and \(e^{\alpha} \sin\beta\) are algebraically independent if and only if \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\) are ...

Terahertz All‐Dielectric Maxwell Fisheye Lens Waveguide Crossings via Transformation Optics
Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.All‐silicon terahertz waveguide crossings based on Maxwell fisheye lenses are reshaped using transformation optics to interface with planar waveguides while reducing mode mismatch. Realized via subwavelength perforations in a single etching step, 2 × 2 and 3 × 3 crossings achieve broadband transmission with low loss and ultralow crosstalk across 220 ...

An explicit solution for calculating optimum spawning stock size from Ricker’s stock recruitment model [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Stock-recruitment models have been used for decades in fisheries management as a means of formalizing the expected number of offspring that recruit to a fishery based on the number of parents.

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Polypeptide chains were extended from both ends of aromatic diamines by chemoenzymatic polymerization, resulting in the synthesis of telechelic polyglycines (TPG) and polyalanines (TPA). These telechelic polymers assembled into branched nanofibrils through π‐π stacking of aromatic rings, with the polymer backbones bent at the aromatic unit.

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.Generalized analytical equations were developed that accurately predict the local pumping characteristics, viscous dissipation, and average shear rates in channels of both conventional and high‐performance single‐screw extruders. Applied within segmented extruder calculations, these models aid in screw design and process troubleshooting without the ...

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.Polyester with the structure of 2‐thioethyl ester reveals oxidative degradability via the oxidation to sulfone followed by base‐promoted β‐elimination. Since the degradation occurs by the nonnatural stimuli, these polymers are stable during use but can be degraded at the desired instant after use.

Sustainability as Justice: Making the “Leave No One Behind” Work
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper critically engages with the LNOB principle of the 2030 Agenda, highlighting its conceptual, methodological, and structural limitations. Building on Amartya Sen's social choice theory and Rawlsian justice, it reconceptualizes “sustainability as justice,” emphasizing real‐world comparative assessments grounded in intersectionality. It

Freedom of Scientific Inquiry and Democracy. A Systems‐Theoretical Approach
Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The article examines the relationship between democracy and one of its inherent features: freedom of scientific inquiry—a multi‐layered concept closely intertwined with the broader notion of academic freedom—both of which are increasingly under threat worldwide. The paper advocates for the use of Luhmann's theoretical framework to analyse this

Who Is the System? On the Externalisation and Depersonalisation of Responsibility for Abuse
Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article examines the externalisation and depersonalisation of responsibility in the institutional communication of the Roman Catholic Church in the context of sexualised violence. Niklas Luhmann's theory of social systems is used to show how semantic constructions such as ‘systemic causes’ rhetorically blur responsibility and contribute ...
