Does the form of employment make a difference? - Commitment of traditional, temporary, and self-employed workers (2008)
Journal Article
Felfe, J., Schmook, R., Schyns, B., & Six, B. (2008). Does the form of employment make a difference? - Commitment of traditional, temporary, and self-employed workers. Journal of Vocational Behavior, 72(1), 81-94. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jvb.2007.10.008

Increasing change in the labor market has produced new forms of employment. A growing number of people have temporary jobs or are self-employed freelancers. The aim of our study is to address these changes by introducing commitment to the form of emp...

FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT is widely considered to be central to student achievement. Unfortunately, however, on modules with large numbers of students, there is not sufficient time for academic staff to provide written feedback to all students on a regula...

Internet-based questionnaires (e-questionnaires) have become widely used in psychopathology research, but there is currently little evidence on their reliability as compared with pen-and-paper equivalents. Data from separate samples of young adults c... Read More about A message in the medium? Assessing the reliability of psychopathology e-questionnaires..

A Catalytic Aldol Reaction and Condensation through In Situ Boron “Ate” Complex Enolate Generation in Water (2008)
Journal Article

A Catalytic Aldol Reaction and Condensation through In Situ Boron “Ate” Complex Enolate Generation in Water. Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 47(4), 768-770. https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.200704293

Cooperation is key: N-Butyl-1-benzimidazole-2-phenylboronic acid hydroxide complex catalyzes the aldol condensation and aldol addition between hydroxyacetone or acetone, and different aldehydes in water. The catalytic activity results from cooperativ... Read More about A Catalytic Aldol Reaction and Condensation through In Situ Boron “Ate” Complex Enolate Generation in Water.

"What is Queer? Theology after Identity" (2008)
Journal Article
Loughlin, G. (2008). "What is Queer? Theology after Identity". Theology & Sexuality, 14(2), 143-152. https://doi.org/10.1177/1355835807087376

This article discusses various uses of ‘queer’ in theology, from the queerness of theology itself to queer as insult, and as insult turned. But it is chiefly concerned with queer as what David Halperin calls an ‘identity without an essence’. As such... Read More about "What is Queer? Theology after Identity".

Effects of reproductive compensation, gamete discounting and reproductive assurance on mating-system diversity in hermaphrodites. (2008)
Journal Article
Harder, L., Richards, S., & Routley, M. (2008). Effects of reproductive compensation, gamete discounting and reproductive assurance on mating-system diversity in hermaphrodites. Evolution: International Journal of Organic Evolution, 62(1), 157-172. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1558-5646.2007.00272.x

Hermaphroditism allows considerable scope for contributing genes to subsequent generations through various mixtures of selfed and outcrossed offspring. The fitness consequences of different family compositions determine the evolutionarily stable mati...

The process gg→h0→γγ is studied in the Lee-Wick extension of the standard model (LWSM) proposed by Grinstein, O’Connell, and Wise. In this model, negative norm partners for each SM field are introduced with the aim to cancel quadratic divergences in... Read More about Process gg→h0→γγ in the Lee-Wick standard model..
