Background/Objectives: Urine drug testing (UDT) is a core component of nursing interventions within the treatment of substance use disorder (SUD). Beyond the detection of psychoactive substance use and medication adherence, UDT also provides opportunities for therapeutic dialogue, patient support, and …

Forecasting the thermal behavior of flexible heating assets is essential for real-time energy management in heating systems. While thermal dynamics are complex, the optimization algorithms within energy management systems (EMS) require low-order models with minimal computational load to make rapid, real-time …

Self-Determination Theory (SDT) has been widely applied in sports coaching research, encompassing both basic psychological need (BPN)–supportive (bright side) and BPN–thwarting (dark side) coaching behaviours. This paper focuses on the bright side by systematically reviewing and meta-analysing SDT-based …

Urban areas are increasingly facing climate-related risks that outpace the implementation of adaptation measures, often attributed to a persistent policy-to-implementation gap. Bridging this gap requires a deeper understanding of the underlying governance dynamics. This paper adopts a governance arrangement …

Building on the metaphor of teachers as “knowing locations,” this contribution explores how teachers impact the socio-material learning environments. We illustrate how they influence teaching/learning making by zooming into two distinct settings: secondary school educational labs (E-labs) and art academy …

In nature, resources necessary for reproduction and survival are often spatially distributed or scarce. Parasitoid wasps are insects that develop as larvae in or on a single invertebrate resource (often another insect), while the adults are free-living and rely on carbohydrates, for example, floral nectar, …

The gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis is widely used for enzyme production, especially due to its superior protein secretion capacity. In this study, we have investigated how efficient transcriptome analysis can identify general and protein-specific secretion stress. For this, we constructed …

Family breakup dynamics in mammals can be complex due to competing interests between parents and offspring. Parents need to balance their own as well as their offspring's fitness through either terminating care early or extending care. Yet, males can disrupt this trade-off as they may force females to …

We explore how a graduate level course we developed about tensions in multi-stakeholder partnerships (MSPs), may foster the development of a paradox mindset and paradoxical thinking skills among business students. We analyzed students’ reflective essays (n=77) and present a process model that depicts …

Medisch Spectrum Twente, a general hospital in Enschede, aimed to increase their innovative appearances to the public. One of the hospital’s solutions was through the development of an interactive installation, capable of showing users the hospital’s current and future innovative developments. The purpose …
