Publicly funded private schools and academic achievement: A comparative analysis of PISA data in European countries

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper analyses differences in academic achievement associated with attendance at publicly funded private schools and public schools across 11 European countries. Using eight waves of PISA data (2000–2022), we apply OLS, IPW and IPWRA estimators to account for observed heterogeneity and mitigate selection bias.

Feedback Stabilization Applied to Heart Rhythm Dynamics Using an Integro-Differential Method

open access: yesMathematics
In this paper, we applied a chaos control method based on integro-differential equations for stabilization of an unstable cardiac rhythm, which is described by a variation of the modified Van der Pol equation. Chaos control with this method may be useful

Small Noise Asymptotic Expansion for a Infinite Dimensional Stochastic Reaction-Diffusion Forced Van Der Pol Equation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Starting from the classical Van der Pol equation, after suitable changes of variables, we derive a reaction-diffusion type forcedVan der Pol equation with values in a suitable infinite dimensionalHilbert space.

A beacon of inclusion for our whole community: Examining a civic university through the lens of LGBTQ+ inclusion

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This exploratory article explores how one UK university sought to understand and enhance its engagement with the local LGBTQ+ community. Drawing on poststructuralist queer and homonormative theories and civic university frameworks, the study analyses data from a community‐facing Pride survey completed by 53 LGBTQ+ individuals. Through emergent
