Algorithmic Empowerment: The Fair Allocation of Visibility in Platformized Publics

Ranking and recommendation algorithms increasingly allocate visibility, shaping which claims circulate and whose experiences enter public discussion. Much algorithmic fairness scholarship draws on the language of noninterference, asking whether platforms distort a neutral flow of...

Personalized regulatory guidance during online cloze tasks: Performance, emotions, and exploratory self-efficacy differences

This study examined whether personalized regulatory guidance supports students' performance, emotions, motivation, and strategy use during online cloze tasks, and whether problem-solving self-efficacy is associated with variability in students' responses to such guidance. Forty-e...

Sustainability Crafting: How Employees Translate Sustainability Intentions Into Green Behaviors

ABSTRACT Despite growing organizational emphasis on sustainability, employees often fail to translate their sustainability intentions into workplace behaviors, resulting in a persistent intention–behavior gap. Drawing on the theory of planned behavior and the job crafting literat...

Governing voices: self-gatekeeping and the negotiation of creative labour on Chinese audio platforms

Audio-based platforms remain underexplored in research on platform governance and creative labour, despite their growing cultural and economic significance and the distinct governance challenges of voice-mediated environments. This study examines how creators navigate overlapping...

Coupled Reconstruction of 2D Blood Flow and Vessel Geometry from Noisy Images via Physics-Informed Neural Networks and Quasi-conformal Mapping

Abstract. Blood flow imaging provides important information for hemodynamic behavior within the vascular system and plays an essential role in medical diagnosis and treatment planning. However, obtaining high-quality flow images remains a significant challenge. In this work, we a...

The paradox of justice in divided settings

Abstract Increasing polarization across many contexts raises the question of whether justice measures exacerbate or mitigate social divisions. To develop hypotheses about how justice operates in divided contexts, this article draws on theoretical perspectives from the interdiscip...

Surface‐Charge‐Regulated Porous Water for Interfacial Phase‐Transition Control

Angstrom-confined water in porous scaffolds is sensitive to interfacial electrostatics, yet cross-material predictability is limited because pore geometry and surface chemistry change simultaneously. This work introduces Surface-Charge-Regulated Porous Water (SCR-PW) as a tunable...

Translating children’s literature for death education

Abstract Despite the significance of death as a theme in children’s literature, few studies examine how it is translated across cultures. Drawing on death education and censorship studies, this article analyzes the English translation of Chen Jiatong’s White Fox series, a Chinese...

Universal Basic Income in Illiberal Regimes

Abstract Illiberal regimes increasingly rely on “soft repression” that weaponizes economic precarity while preserving a veneer of legality. This article develops a theoretical framework demonstrating how Universal Basic Income (UBI) alters the strategic interaction between citize...

Research on a Differential Game Considering Endurance and Marketing Effort for eVTOL Under a Subsidy Policy

Electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) represents a novel mode of transportation emerging within the low-altitude economy framework, exhibiting extensive development prospects. As a widely adopted incentive policy, government subsidy constitutes a crucial method for suppor...

DynamicBUS: restoring temporal dynamics from static ultrasound for improved breast cancer diagnosis

Abstract The clinical practice of archiving static 2D images from dynamic breast ultrasound (BUS) examinations leads to a critical loss of temporal information, vital for accurate lesion diagnosis. This data limitation constrains the performance of conventional computer-aided dia...

The Salience of Entrepreneurship: Evidence from Online Business

We examine the decision to become an entrepreneur in the context of online business. Using data on entrepreneurs from a large e-commerce marketplace in China, we find that individuals are more likely to start online businesses after observing the salient success of nearby stores....

Study on the use of aqueous nano-MgO dispersions for mild deacidification of ancient books

Abstract During the long-term preservation of ancient books, acidic substances will continuously erode and cause them to suffer severe damage. As a mild deacidification agent, nano-MgO is often dispersed in organic solvents for large-scale deacidification. This study is based on...

The Policy Umwelt: How AI Problem Representations Render Governance Alternatives Unthinkable

This paper investigates how AI narratives actively constrain the horizon of conceivable governance options. Moving beyond the established finding that narratives influence policy, we argue they fundamentally prefigure the scope of the politically thinkable by creating what we ter...

Towards Building a Multi-Source Heterogeneous Knowledge Graph for Complex Material Question Answering

Large Language Models (LLMs) show considerable potential for materials-science question answering. However, LLM responses may still be affected by unsupported parametric associations, while dense Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) can fragment relational evidence across text ch...

Huang Ya’s Wisteria and the Cold War middlebrow: melodrama, Manichean worlds, and Mahua literature

As the longest-serving editor of the literary magazine Chao Foon, Malaysian Chinese (Mahua) writer Huang Ya (1932–1992) is widely regarded as a central figure in shaping Mahua modernism during the 1960s. Existing scholarship has largely focused on his editorial advocacy for Malay...

‘Like a Fish in the Water’: Subjective Well‐Being and the Alignment of Perceptions of Democracy With Political Structures

ABSTRACT Happiness research has long highlighted the role of national culture, yet few studies distinguish between objective conditions and collective cultural environments in which citizens form political perceptions. Focusing on perceptions of democracy, this study examines how...
