When money can’t buy political love: lab experiments on vote buying in Ghana and Uganda by Burbidge, D, Cheeseman, N, Panin, A

“…Participants play the roles of voters and candidates with opportunities to bribe. Voters are more likely to vote for a candidate who had the opportunity to bribe but refrained from doing so. …”

Perceptions of impure innovation: health professionals’ experiences and management of stigmatization when working as digital innovators by Gill, MJ, Naughton, B, Field, M, Shaw, S

“…Inductively theorizing from our interview data, we explain how individual professionals experience different intensities of stigmatization from colleagues when working with digital innovations. We theorize that the more central a dual-role professional is within an organization and the more their innovation deviates from standard professional duties, the more likely the innovation is to be viewed as impure within a professional group and be the target of stigmatization. …”

When advertising goes tribal green : a study on socialisation's role in green consumer behaviour. by Hor, Cha Lin., Chen, Lishi., Lin, Juanita Jiaxuan.

“…Overall, emotional advertising appeals for green products were preferred by shoppers with various hedonic motivations as compared to management advertising appeals. Specifically, when ‘Adventure’ and ‘Idea’ motivation combined with emotional advertising appeals, it enhanced consumer’s information processing and purchase intention. …”

Governing in the face of a global crisis: when do voters punish and reward incumbent governments? by Duch, RM, Loewen, P, Robinson, TS, Zakharov, A

“…Classical accounts of responsibility are complicated when crises are pervasive, involve multiple valence dimensions, and where individuals can make relative assessments of performance. …”

The role of ADAM10 and mucin-like molecules in modulating cell-cell interactions by Drexhage, L

“…Data presented in this thesis show that the mucins CD43, MUC1 and PSGL-1 are selectively cleaved off the membrane of apoptotic T cells by the metalloprotease ADAM10, and further analysis into the pathway revealed that this process requires activity of the apoptosis-induced phosphatidylserine (PS) scramblase XKR8. When mucin cleavage is prevented, efferocytic uptake by macrophages is reduced in an in vitro assay, and if mucins are removed by a pan- mucinase enzyme, uptake is increased. …”

Experimental observation of optical Weyl points and Fermi arc-like surface states by Chong, Yi Dong, Chen, Kevin P., Rechtsman, Mikael C., Noh, Jiho, Huang, Sheng, Leykam, Daniel

“…We use a 3D structure consisting of laser-written waveguides, and show the presence of type-II Weyl points by observing conical diffraction along one axis when the frequency is tuned to the Weyl point; and observing the associated Fermi arc-like surface states. …”
