The critical platform studies literature has built a compelling picture of how techniques like worker (mis)classification, algorithmic management and workforce atomisation lie at the heart ‘work on-demand via apps’ actively restructure labour. Much this emerging scholarship identifies that workforces are predominantly comprised migrant racially minoritised workers. However, few theorise migrati...

Over the past two decades, research and popular discourse have taken up the question of whether strong racial group identification inhibits or promotes achievement motivation among African American students. However, scant attention has been paid to contextual variation in roles and functions of racial identity. In this chapter, we considered how the congruence between students’ racial identity...

to study inheritance of resistance to septoria tritici blotch in wheat, the generation mean analysis method was used. so six generations (p1, p2, f1, f2, bc1 and bc2) were planted under completely randomized design with three replications in greenhouse. seedlings were inoculated at the second-leaf stage with an isolate of septoria tritici and necrosis and picnidia density and area under disease...

breeding programs strategies depends on genetical mechanism of selection traits. in the present research, generation mean analysis with joint scaling test was performed to determine the gene action. f1, f2 and f3 generations, derived from roushan and kavir cross along with their parents were sown in a partial lattice design with two replications under stress condition at the research field of s...

Introduction: Based on the previous studies, we know that the hemispheric lateralization defects, increase the probability of psychological disorders. We also know that dominant limb is controlled by dominant hemisphere and limb preference is used as an indicator for hemisphere dominance. In this study we attempted to explore the hemispheric dominance by the use of three limbs (hand, foot...

In a small window of phase space, chiral perturbation theory can be used to make standard model predictions for tau decays into two and three pions. For τ → 2πντ , we give the analytical result for the relevant form factor FV up to two loops, then calculate the differential spectrum and compare with available data. For τ → 3πντ , we have calculated the hadronic matrix element to one loop. We di...

The role of racial identity in the stress process was examined in a sample (N1⁄4 174) of African American doctoral students and graduates of doctoral programs. Racial discrimination and psychological distress (negative affect, depression, and anxiety) were assessed each day for a period of two weeks. Multilevel random coefficient modeling analyses revealed that unique dimensions of racial ident...

White racial resentment is associated with opposition to a broad range of racial policies but it is unclear whether it derives from racial prejudice or stems from ideological principles. To resolve this ambiguity, we examined the impact of racial resentment on support for a college-scholarship program in which program beneficiaries’ race and socio-economic class was experimentally varied. The a...

Building on previous research on the effects of racial priming on the opinions of White Americans, this paper engages the question of how exposure to racial cues in political messages shapes the opinions of African Americans. I argue that explanations of racial priming that focus exclusively on White Americans are insufficient to explain how racial cues influence the opinions of Black Americans...
