How charitable giving affects litigation duration? Empirical evidence from China. by Feng Zhu

“…The study finds that: (1) Charitable donation behavior can significantly shorten the litigation duration of listed companies. (2) This effect is particularly significant when listed companies are plaintiffs, but not significant when they are defendants. (3) The negative relationship between charitable donations of listed companies and litigation duration is achieved through reputation mechanisms. (4) This effect is more significant for listed companies located in the Northeast region and regions with a lower degree of marketization when facing civil and arbitration cases. (5) Additionally, by constructing panel data on whether companies are involved in litigation and as defendants, it is shown that corporate charitable donations not only have the function of "compensating" reputation but also serve as a kind of "insurance" for reputation. …”

Addiction, attachment, and the brain: a focused review of empirical findings and future directions by Human-Friedrich Unterrainer, Human-Friedrich Unterrainer, Human-Friedrich Unterrainer, Human-Friedrich Unterrainer

“…This focused review integrates theoretical and empirical work from developmental neuroscience, attachment theory, and psychodynamic psychotherapy to reconceptualize addiction as a disorder rooted in disrupted attachment and altered brain function. Drawing on both clinical and research findings, it explores how early relational trauma contributes to dysregulation of stress-response systems and functional changes in brain regions involved in self-awareness, emotion regulation, and reward processing. …”

Tremor and its duration‐amplitude distribution at Popocatépetl volcano, Mexico by R. Arámbula‐Mendoza, C. Valdés‐González, N. Varley, T. A. Reyes‐Pimentel, B. Juárez‐García

“…Abstract The duration‐amplitude distribution was calculated for the tremor observed at Popocatépetl volcano during episodes of activity in 2000 and 2012–2014. An exponential function was used to obtain a good fit for the duration‐amplitude distribution, and the source of volcanic tremor is probably generated by the transportation of magmatic fluids and its coupling with the host rock within the volcanic conduit. …”
