This article introduces the first annual, time-series–cross-sectional dataset of cabinet governance across 34 parliamentary democracies from 2005 to 2021, utilizing expert-assessed behavioral indicators to reveal frequent shifts in executive decision-making models that formal institutional rules fail to capture, thereby highlighting the dynamic nature of democratic accountability.
Based on a survey of 1,970 South Korean adults, this study reveals that while specific value orientations and climate-change appraisals independently predict meat and vegetarian preferences, climate-change appraisals also function as moderating conditions that shape how these values translate into dietary choices.
This paper introduces the concept of Machine-Facing Branding and proposes the Algorithmic Brand Legibility Framework to address the emerging need for brands to optimize their interpretability and recommendation potential by intelligent AI agents, thereby extending branding theory beyond human-centric audiences to include algorithmic decision-makers.
This article analyzes how Vigo's Christmas celebrations function as a mediatized visual repertoire and audiovisual resource that strengthens the city's brand through international media circulation and local production, while emphasizing the need for strategic management to convert this visibility into sustainable urban value.
An online experiment with 433 participants demonstrates that exposure to documented pharmaceutical misconduct significantly erodes trust across the entire health system, regardless of individuals' baseline conspiracy beliefs, without increasing general conspiracy beliefs.
This study of Spanish preservice teachers demonstrates that while interest, utility, perceived cost, and activating emotions are theoretically distinct constructs in English learning, they exhibit varying degrees of empirical overlap yet collectively predict proficiency, with perceived cost and negative activating emotions showing the strongest negative associations.
This paper argues that legitimate AI governance requires shifting focus from internal compliance artifacts to "social contestability"—the ability of affected individuals to understand, challenge, and correct AI-driven decisions—and proposes five institutional conditions and a lifecycle test to operationalize this framework across major governance instruments and real-world use cases.
This paper proposes and validates the Emotional Saturation Threshold (EST) model, a mathematical framework positing that crying is a universal overflow response triggered when the intensity of any emotion exceeds the capacity of its specific behavioral expressions, thereby unifying crying across the entire valence spectrum and explaining its primacy in neonates.
This study demonstrates that the visual–semantic coherence of Chinese colour metaphor lexemes is significantly predicted by interpretable visual features—particularly horizontal symmetry and consistent visual variability—rather than just central image tendencies, revealing that multimodal meaning stability relies on the recognizability of visual patterns across diverse digital instantiations.
Through a large-scale survey of *Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege* players across 26 countries, this study identifies eight distinct socio-geographic clusters characterized by systematic cross-cultural differences in player experience, such as higher autonomy in European regions and stronger community presence in Asian regions, thereby highlighting the need for context-sensitive game design and research.
