Specifically, we highlight a series of ongoing ethical practices embodied in professional moral courage and their relationship to actor’s work meaningfulness and life well-being. Drawing on self-determination theory and affective events t…Read more

9Do Bashal and Hepsō really mean ‘boil’? A preliminary study in the semantics of biblical Hebrew and Septuagint GreekHTS Theological Studies 78 (1): 5. 2022.The meaning of any given lexical item emerges from an analysis of its contextual usage, but with biblical languages, often a traditional gloss will be accepted as if it were the clear meaning of a lexical item. Lexicons and dictionaries rarely go all the way back to a fresh analysis of the actual usage of a lemma, so the traditional meaning is rarely reconsidered. Those learning biblical languages accept the lexicon’s judgement without stopping to reflect on how the lexicon reached its conclusio…Read more

8Look to the fieldBehavioral and Brain Sciences 45. 2022.Yarkoni's paper makes an important contribution to psychological research by its insightful analysis of generalizability. We suggest, however, that broadening research practices to include field research and the correlated use of both converging and complementary observations gives reason for optimism.

17Overstating the effects of anthropogenic climate change? A critical assessment of attribution methods in climate scienceEuropean Journal for Philosophy of Science 13 (1): 1-24. 2023.Climate scientists have proposed two methods to link extreme weather events and anthropogenic climate forcing: the probabilistic and the storyline approach. Proponents of the first approach have raised the criticism that the storyline approach could be overstating the role of anthropogenic climate change. This issue has important implications because, in certain contexts, decision-makers might seek to avoid information that overstates the effects of anthropogenic climate change. In this paper, w…Read more

15Journeys, Not Destinations: Theorizing a Process View of Supply Chain IntegrityJournal of Business Ethics 181 (1): 195-220. 2021.AbstractIntegrity is considered an important corporate value.

Researchers and managers will benefit from an understanding of the SCI concept toward implementing SCI to better align supply chain p…Read more

12Dynamic changes in ocular shape during human development and its implications for retina fovea formationBioessays 46 (1): 2300054. 2024.The human fovea is known for its distinctive pit‐like appearance, which results from the displacement of retinal layers superficial to the photoreceptors cells. The photoreceptors are found at high density within the foveal region but not the surrounding retina. Efforts to elucidate the mechanisms responsible for these unique features have ruled out cell death as an explanation for pit formation and changes in cell proliferation as the cause of increased photoreceptor density. These findings hav…Read more
