Well-being in digital-free tourism: A mixed-methods rhythmanalysis

Tourism research has largely treated well-being as a motivation or outcome, neglecting how it unfolds in-situ and relying on self-report data. Through a mixed-methods rhythmanalysis, this study examines how well-being emerges and evolves in digital-free tourism. Following 23 part...

Repair in the Circular Economy: From Fragmented Practices to Strategic Repair Capability

ABSTRACT Repair is central to the circular economy, yet research remains fragmented across product design, consumer behaviour, business models, community initiatives and policy, limiting understanding of how these dimensions interact to enable repair at scale. This study systemat...

Gendered Perceptions and the Use of Generative AI in Academia: An Experimental Vignette Study

ABSTRACT The adoption of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is reshaping the very nature of work, yet its social meaning and evaluative implications—particularly for women—remain underexplored. Although existing research has mainly examined GenAI adoption, use, and algori...

Exploring Human Coach Distinctiveness in an Age of AI: An Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis of the Roles of Values

Objective: This study examined how professional coaches understand the role of values in their practice and why they see these as central to what human coaches offer compared with AI coaching agents. Method: Interpretative phenomenological analysis was used with semi-structured i...

Novel Microparticulation of Pea Protein: Structural Transformation, Enhanced Gelation, Dispersion Stability, and Off‐Taste Masking

ABSTRACT Pea protein isolate (PPI) suffers from poor solubility, weak gel‐forming ability, and undesirable sensory attributes that limit its wider adoption in plant‐based food products. This study reports a novel three‐stage process for producing plant protein microparticulate by...

Double liminality: Transitional imprisonment and the ambiguities of the open prison

This analysis reconceptualises open prisons as institutions of suspension rather than bridges to freedom. Extending penal liminality theory, it advances the concept of double liminality to explain how ‘transitional imprisonment’—custody whose boundary remains permeable in both di...

Crop-fertilization interdependence in Ethiopian enset-based systems shapes soil fertility and constrains crop expansion

Most agricultural soils are degraded and limiting crop production. Improved management can increase crop yields and soil health, but trade-offs in the use of resources, such as organic amendments, need to be considered. We sampled 427 fields across agri-systems in the southwest o...

Drivers of voluntary food safety standard adoption in developing value chains: Evidence from Cambodian fish processors

Traditional fish processing is vital to rural food security in Cambodia but faces severe food safety challenges. This study evaluates the socio-economic and institutional drivers of food safety standard adoption, focusing on the voluntary Cambodia Quality Seal (CQS). Utilizing a...

An Analytical Study of the Evolution of Online Learning in Teacher Education: Opportunities, Challenges, and Future Directions

This study explored online learning in teacher education regarding the use of technology and its access, equity and ethical issues during the COVID-19 disruption to teacher training within higher education, and how it has evolved. This qualitative study was underpinned by connect...

All about the early years teacher degree apprenticeship

What is the Early Years Teacher Degree Apprenticeship - launched from September - and who is it for? Lecturer Louise Atkins , who helped devise it, explains the requirements, structure and assessment involved, how it reflects modern practice, and fits in with the vision of an inc...

Transformation front kinetics in deformable ferromagnets

Abstract Materials such as magnetic shape-memory alloys possess an intrinsic coupling between material’s magnetisation and mechanical deformation. These materials also undergo structural phase transitions, with phase boundaries separating different phases. The kinetics of the pha...

Covering the gaps: Teaching assistants, lesson cover, workforce pressure and displaced support in mainstream schools

Abstract This article examines the deployment of teaching assistants (TAs) to cover classes in place of teachers in mainstream schools. Drawing on survey data from over 8000 support staff in England, the analysis focuses on the scale, character, reported reasons and consequences...

Modelling the photocatalytic oxidation of methane and other air pollutants for applications in ventilation systems

Photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) is a promising strategy for indoor air purification and outdoor pollutant abatement, potentially offering treatment for climate- and health-relevant pollutants such as methane (CH$_4$), nitrogen oxides (NO$_\text{x}$) and volatile organic compounds...

Barriers and Enablers to Nurses Routinely Screening for Oropharyngeal Dysphagia in Hospitalised Older Adults: An Evidence Synthesis of Qualitative Studies

ABSTRACT Aim To identify and describe the barriers and enablers to nurses routinely screening for dysphagia in hospital and map these to domains in the Theoretical Domains Framework. Design Systematic review with meta‐ethnography. Data Base Sources CINAHL, Embase, PubMed, Scopus,...

Coupling between statistical learning and interference suppression

Abstract In an ever-changing environment, synchronizing automatic and controlled behaviors is essential for successful adaptation. Yet, the relationship between these behaviors is often debated, partly because of the diverse approaches used to investigate them. The present study...

Longitudinal evidence for decreasing statistical learning abilities across childhood

Abstract Statistical learning enables us to identify patterns in our environment and predict future events, thereby supporting a range of motor, cognitive, and linguistic skills. Despite its significance, the developmental trajectory of statistical learning has remained unclear d...

Disruptive shocks in global agri-food value chains: a comparative analysis of impact trajectories across 12 case studies

Agri-food value chains (AFVCs) are exposed to compound, complex climatic, geopolitical, and market shocks, yet prevailing resilience frameworks treat the impact of these disruptions as linear, sector-specific, and primarily from a technical perspective. This paper challenges such...

Structural genome variation drives adaptation of the xylose-fermenting yeast Scheffersomyces stipitis to lignocellulosic hydrolysates

Abstract Second-generation (2G) bioethanol from lignocellulosic feedstocks is a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels. However, its production is constrained by the poor performance of industrial microbes in hydrolysates that are generated during biomass pretreatment. Scheffers...

Long-term mapping of aboveground carbon storage in China (2000−2020) using a prior-knowledge-constrained deep learning model

Terrestrial ecosystems play a critical role in mitigating climate change by sequestering atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO₂), with aboveground carbon storage (AGC) serving as a key indicator of ecosystem carbon sink capacity. However, existing AGC estimation approaches remain constr...

Epistemic politics of research funding: a social network analysis of knowledge production

Unequal power dynamics in knowledge production and dissemination are central to decolonisation debates, shaping whose knowledge is recognised, funded, and circulated. Knowledge produced in the Global North is often treated as universally applicable, while knowledge from the Globa...
