Emerging Patterns of Participation in Virtual Live Concerts
Digital disruption has radically reorganized the sociality and economics of the music industries. This is perhaps nowhere more apparent than at ‘virtual’ concerts in Massive Multiplayer Games such as Fortnite, in Virtual Reality platforms such as VRChat and in web 3.0 worlds such as Decentraland. This chapter presents the results of a study exploring the behaviours and values of audiences of live online music events. We begin by reviewing the exi…

Effects of input frequency and microvariation on knowledge of negative inversion in L2 English
The present study investigates whether L2 learners of English distinguish between (un)grammatical word orders after fronted negative adverbials to identify negative inversion. Previous research on transfer and resetting of verb second (V2) in L1 German–L2 English is extended to explore residual V2 in the form of negative inversion. An acceptability judgment task elicited sentence ratings from advanced German-speaking learners of English for front…
High-resolution observations of NO 2 and CO 2 emission plumes from EnMAP satellite measurements
Accurate quantification of emissions from anthropogenic sources is crucial for monitoring greenhouse gases and air pollution. Nitrogen oxides (NO x ) and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) are of particular interest due to their role in atmospheric chemistry and global warming, respectively. Satellite observations are a key component for independent monitoring of emissions on a global scale. In this study, we demonstrate for the first time the simultaneous d…
That Plastic Is Not Mine”
In coastal Vietnam, everyday lives and production processes are entwined with the seasonal rhythms and movement of plastics in waterways. This article explores how aquaculture farmers and fishers interpret encounters with aquatic plastics, and how their perceptions of these objects’ spatial and temporal origins offer insights into their own discard practices. Through their repetitive movement, plastics become objects of ‘non-belonging’ and ‘out o…
Holocene tephras in the New Guinea highlands
In the highlands of Papua New Guinea (PNG), tephras are key chronostratigraphic markers for archaeological and palaeoenvironmental studies. Here, mid-Late-Holocene tephras are geochemically fingerprinted and correlated across seventeen sites in PNG. This enables the first regional scale assessment of the distribution of these tephras, with implications for both assessing eruption magnitude and interpreting site stratigraphy. In the past, stratigr…
I usually just rely on my intuition and go from there.” pedagogical rules and metalinguistic awareness of pre-service EFL teachers
The present study explores Austrian pre-service EFL teachers’ language awareness. The negative polarity properties of ‘any’ are investigated. These are informative since some of the grammatical constraints are taught in EFL instruction while others are not. The research question addresses whether pre-service teachers’ knowledge is constrained by pedagogical rules. 66 pre-service EFL teachers rated eight sentence types illustrating varying grammat…
Ancient Epistemologies
Reflection on knowledge is often assumed to have emerged with Greek philosophy. Earlier and contemporary modes of thinking in the ancient Near East, including ancient Israel, are assumed to be archaic and often left out of the picture. Against this view, the contributors of this volume aim to reconstruct the ancient epistemologies, the »paradigms«, »discourses«, and »episteme«, that developed in the ancient Near Eastern and Mediterranean region a…

Reflection on knowledge is often assumed to emerge with Greek philosophy. Earlier and contemporary modes of thinking in the ancient Near East, including ancient Israel, are assumed to be archaic and often left out of the picture. Against this view, the authors in this volume aim to reconstruct the ancient modes of thinking that developed in the ancient Near Eastern and Mediterranean regions and formed the conditions for developing more distinct f…
Job as the Sufferer
In philosophical traditions, self-knowledge describes an individual mental state that is mainly guided by sensations, thoughts, and beliefs. The character of Job seeks to express his epistemic state of dealing with the chronic pain he experiences. Through the motif of the righteous sufferer and the interplay of focalisation and metaphor, the author of the book of Job is able to construct epistemic agency related to Job's beliefforming practices o…
The Oxford Handbook of Music and Advertising Siu-Lan Tan Ron Rodman
The Oxford Handbooks (and their corollaries by competing presses) are awkward creatures. On the one hand, despite their size, they are less comprehensive than an encyclopedia. On the other hand, because of their size, they struggle to provide the focus of a traditional edited volume. The editors of The Oxford Handbook of Music and Advertising use this ‘in-betweeness’ to their advantage. Music and advertising is an expansive subject, drawing inter…
With all praise to your exalted frequencies, consider me your friend
This article discusses musicking in the Church of Scientology, and how it can be used to understand the organisation and its relationship to society. The article begins by discussing the essential place oflisteningin Scientological practice, noting that it is one of several 'technologies' that institutionalise the charisma of its founder, L. Ron Hubbard. It next demonstrates how Hubbard's hagiography influences how the church produces music today…
Influence of mangrove forests on subjective and psychological wellbeing of coastal communities
Mangrove forests possess multiple functions for the environment and society through their valuable ecosystem services. Along with this, the mangrove forests have large and diverse social values, in combination contributing to the health and wellbeing of the surrounding communities. This study aims (i) to assess the benefits of mangrove forests and their impact on subjective and psychological wellbeing of coastal communities and (ii) to understand…
High Anti-CoV2S Antibody Levels at Hospitalization Are Associated with Improved Survival in Patients with Covid-19 Vaccine Breakthrough Infection
In this retrospective data analysis, we show that almost all patients who died from COVID-19 vaccine breakthrough infection had antibody levels < 600 U/mL, most of them below 200 U/mL. In logistic regression corrected for the number of comorbidities and age, anti-CoV2S antibody levels at the time of hospitalization proved to be a significantly protective predictor against death
Reading habits and attitudes in first-year EFL student teachers and their implications for literature course design in an Austrian study programme
This paper reports results from a quantitative curriculum study on literature modules in Austrian undergraduate teacher education programmes. In order to optimise course delivery in literature classes at the University College of Education Upper Austria (PHOÖ), reading habits and attitudes of 153 first-year EFL students for secondary school education were assessed in an online-questionnaire. The questionnaire examined students’ exposure to litera…
Charisma, Authority, and Innovation in Scientology’s “Golden Age” Narrative
This article discusses Scientology’s “golden age” narrative. The first section discusses Scientology’s hagiographic production of L. Ron Hubbard, which presents him as a cultural producer and hero of the American golden age of entertainment. Scientology connects elements of Hubbard’s sacred biography with the secular realm by suggesting that the same extraordinary experiences that led to the discovery of Dianetics and Scientology also informed hi…
Music, Branding, and Consumer Culture in Church
Starting as a single congregation in Australia, Hillsong Church now has campuses worldwide, releases worship music that sells millions of albums and its ministers regularly appear in mainstream media. So, how has a single church gained such international prominence? This book offers an ethnographic exploration of the ways in which music and marketing have been utilised in the pursuit and production of spiritual experience for members of Hillsong …

Avoidance Behavior Is an Independent Indicator of Poorer On-road Driving Skills in Older Adults
This study suggest that avoidance behavior is an independent indicator of impaired driving skills in older drivers. Our results argue against the assumption that avoidance behavior may be a reasonable strategy for safe traffic participation. Longitudinal studies are urgently needed to get more evidence on safety aspects of avoidance behavior
Contingency or Divine Justice
This article deals with a synchronic reading of the book and investigates the history of ideas such as anthropology and cosmology. It highlights the various positions within the dialog and characterizes the prologue as a prefiguration of the contributions to the debate. Finally, it outlines the internal connection of prologue, dialog and epilog vis-à-vis divine justice and human fate
Theologie und Textgeschichte
Die Textversionen des Masoretischen Textes und der Septuaginta sind weit mehr als nur textkritisch zu betrachtende Zeugnisse zur Rekonstruktion des ältesten erreichbaren Textes des Alte Testaments. Sie sind vielmehr Spiegel einer weitergehenden Auseinandersetzung mit den Texten und damit auch Zeugnisse theologischer Debatte und Aktualisierung durch Neugestaltung eines vorgegebenen Textes. Aus diesem Grund sind in diesem Band, der gleichzeitig die…
The Guiana Shield rainforests—overlooked guardians of South American climate
Tropical forests are global climate regulators through their interaction with hydrological and biogeochemical cycles. Despite extensive research on deforestation in South America and its global impact, the role of the largely intact Guiana Shield forests, north of the Amazon, has not yet been considered as part of this climate system. We use a regional climate model with a realistic deforestation scenario to test the impact of deforestation in th…

Deposition of Organic Matter in the Norwegian-Greenland Sea during the Past 2.7 Million Years
Variations in the amount and composition of sedimentary organic matter in glacial and interglacial deposits of the last 2.7 myr correlate with late Cenozoic climatic and oceanographic changes in the Norwegian-Greenland Sea. These variations are predominantly caused by the changing supply of terrestrial and reworked organic matter. The highest amounts of terrestrial organic particles (macerals) and of reworked coal clasts in glacial and early degl…
Reciprocity and Efficiency
Social orientations open up niches for voluntary cooperation. This hypothesis is examined with respect to actors in social dilemmas who have internalized the norm of reciprocity. If the intensity of the social motivation stays within certain limits, efficiency enhancing cooperation evolves. In the ultimatum game and in the battle of the sexes, reciprocity brings about an Equal Split of the social surplus and the behavior pattern known as Turn Tak…
An Interdisciplinary Approach to Integrative Professional Education

Concludes that, given the characteristics and results of the course, vocational formation for ministry needs to include similar dimensions in designing educational curricula
Late Quaternary Climate Changes in Central Africa as Inferred from Terrigenous Input to the Niger Fan
Time series of terrigenous source elements (Al, K, Ti, Zr) from core GeoB4901-8 recovered from the deep-sea fan of the Niger River record variations in riverine sediment discharge over the past 245,000 yr. Although the flux rates of all the elements depend on physical erosion, which is mainly controlled by the extent of vegetation coverage in central Africa, element/Al ratios reflect conditions for chemical weathering in the river basin. Maximum …
Real Estate Asset Management
Asset Management ist das beherrschende Thema der immobilienwirtschaftlichen Fachöffentlichkeit seit Anfang 2006. Grund für diese beachtliche Entwicklung ist die dominierende Präsenz ausländischer Investoren auf dem deutschen Immobilienmarkt in der jüngeren Vergangenheit. Diese Investoren - zumeist aus dem angelsächsischen Raum - importierten gleichermaßen ein neues Anspruchsdenken, was die professionelle Betreuung von Immobilien betrifft. Ausgehe…
