Public understanding and scientific uncertainty: The communication of risk in the L'Aquila earthquake

On April 6, 2009, a magnitude 6.3 earthquake struck L'Aquila, Italy, causing extensive damage and loss of life, and raising significant issues around the communication of scientific risk. In the preceding weeks, increased seismic activity had alarmed the population, prompting authorities to seek expert advice. Public authorities reassured the population that the chances of a dangerous shock were slim. These assurances given by officials led many to remain in their homes when the earthquake st...

Real is the new sexy: the influence of perceived realness on self-reported arousal to sexual visual stimuli

As state-of-art technology can create artificial images that are indistinguishable from real ones, it is urgent to understand whether believing that a picture is real or not has some import over affective phenomena such as sexual arousal. Thus, in two pre-registered online studies, we tested whether 60 images depicting models in underwear elicited higher self-reported sexual arousal when believed to be (N = 57) or presented as (N = 108) real photographs as opposed to artificially generated. I...

Linking responsible innovation and nonfinancial reporting: evidence from manufacturing SMEs

For small-and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), engagement in nonfinancial reporting (NFR) often reflects a commitment to accountability, yet the engagement in NFR remains lower than that of large firms. Given SMEs' widespread presence across markets, clarifying the determinants of their reporting behaviour is a relevant research objective. Guided by an integrated framework that combines stakeholder theory (ST) with dynamic capability theory (DCT), this study assesses whether responsible innov...

Unveiling the relation between aesthetic experiences and attention through a cross-experiment validation of their processing biomarkers

A centuries-old tradition encompassing philosophy, psychology and artistic practice describes aesthetic experiences as characterised by a special state of heightened attention towards external stimuli (i.e., an “aesthetic attitude”). In recent years, this view has motivated wide-ranging claims about the nature of our aesthetic encounters and the cognitive benefits of exposure to art. Despite sustained efforts from a growing stream of interdisciplinary research, however, it is still unclear wh...

Solving adhesive rough contact problems with Atomic Force Microscope data

This study presents an advanced numerical framework that integrates experimentally acquired Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) data into high-fidelity simulations for adhesive rough contact problems, bridging the gap between experimental physics and computational mechanics. The proposed approach extends the eMbedded Profile for Joint Roughness (MPJR) interface finite element method to incorporate both surface topography and spatially varying adhesion properties, imported directly from AFM measurem...
