When expectation fails and motivation prevails: the mediating role of awareness in bridging the expectancy-capability gap in mobile identity protection (open access)

When expectation fails and motivation prevails: the mediating role of awareness in bridging the expectancy-capability gap in mobile identity protection

Article describes how identity theft poses a significant threat to mobile users, yet mobile identity protection is often overlooked in cybersecurity literature. This study adopts a mixed-methods approach and draws on expectancy-value theory to address these gaps and explore the impact of expectations, capabilities, motivational values, technical measures, and awareness on individuals' intentions to achieve mobile identity protection.

Who Is Purged? Determinants of Elite Purges in North Korea (open access)

Who Is Purged? Determinants of Elite Purges in North Korea

This article argues that elite purges in consolidated dictatorships have a different purpose and logic. Dictators, who have consolidated their position, seek to maximize the efficiency of rule by making the elite obedient through purges. For this purpose, dictators carefully select the purge target by considering various factors. To test this theory, the article examines the pattern of elite purges in North Korea based on an original individual-level dataset, which contains the personal background of 367 North Korean elites and their purge records between 1948 and 2019. Findings suggest that coup-proofing is not the only purpose of elite purges but that ensuring the leader’s political superiority is another purpose of elite purges in consolidated dictatorships.

Whole-genome survey reveals extensive variation in genetic diversity and inbreeding levels among peregrine falcon subspecies (open access)

Whole-genome survey reveals extensive variation in genetic diversity and inbreeding levels among peregrine falcon subspecies

Article describes how, in efforts to prevent extinction, resource managers are often tasked with increasing genetic diversity in a population of concern to prevent inbreeding depression or improve adaptive potential in a changing environment. The authors used whole-genome resequencing to generate over two million single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from multiple individuals of all peregrine falcon subspecies.

Workflow for the Quantification of Soluble and Insoluble Carbohydrates in Soybean Seed (open access)

Workflow for the Quantification of Soluble and Insoluble Carbohydrates in Soybean Seed

This article develops and validates a sequential protocol for quantifying reserve and structural carbohydrates in soybean seed. It was successfully applied to eight soybean genotypes harvested from two locations, and the resulting correlations of carbohydrate and oil or protein are presented. This methodology has the potential not only to guide soybean cultivar optimization processes but also to be expanded to other crops with only slight modifications.
