Experiences, perceptions and ethical considerations of the malaria infection study in Thailand by Naemiratch, B, Kulpijit, N, Ruangkajorn, S, Day, NPJ, Prachumsri, J, Cheah, PY

“…We found that although compensation was a motivation for participation, this was secondary to it being beneficial to self (health checks; link to health networks; building merit) and others (medical research contribution; altruism). …”

Three essays on frictions of trade by Li, W

“…The analysis is based on an adapted gravity model with several alternative specifications for robustness checks. The result suggests that improvements on the road network lead to trade expansion on both intensive and extensive margins, but the effects vary across the regions. …”

Mediation effects of language anxiety and prior learning experience on academic speaking challenges and strategies among Libyan students in Malaysian universities by Halali, Ahlam Ali Salim, Ismail, Lilliati, Abd Samad, Arshad, Razali, Abu Bakar, Noordin, Nooreen

“…Field notes and member checks were used for validation. Correlational procedures, structural equation modeling (SEM), and bootstrapping resampling analyses were conducted to examine the relationships between variables, validate study models, and test research hypotheses. …”
