Leaving the Catholic Church: cross-sectional and longitudinal predictors of leaving intentions
What predicts whether people are likely to leave the Catholic Church? We examine the role of different identification aspects and their interaction with acceptance of authority, possibility for change, and reputation of the Church in society. In a cross-sectional (N = 583) and longitudinal study with random intercept (N = 271) we find that specifically lower scores on the identification aspects of solidarity, satisfaction, and centrality predict leaving intentions. Cross-sectionally, the relationship between identification and leaving intentions is moderated by acceptance of authority, possibility for change, and reputation (NRange = 580–583). However, this moderation is not confirmed in longitudinal cross-lagged panel analyses (N = 263/195). Overall, findings point to self-investment aspects of identification as a crucial factor in predicting leaving intentions and emphasize the importance of assessing identification with the Church multi-dimensionally and longitudinally

Doing difference en la escuela primaria : Un estudio comparativo entre Alemania y Argentina a través de la categoría «origen social»
Este artículo parte de una investigación sobre la escuela primaria desde la teoría de Doing Difference y a partir de la categoría de «origen social». El estudio empírico tuvo un diseño binacional y apuntó a identificar similitudes y diferencias entre los/as docentes alemanes/as y argenti-nos/as en lo que respecta a las diferenciaciones que hacen basadas en atri-butos estereotipados de sus estudiantes. Para ello se analizó en qué medida los/as docentes (re-)producen desigualdades educativas a través de sus acciones y percepciones. Se realizaron entrevistas a maestros/as de primaria de ambos países entre 2020 y 2022 y los datos se analizaron utilizando la Teoría Fundamentada. Los resultados empíricos se analizaron centralmente a partir del concepto de equidad de reconocimiento, enmarcado en la teoría de la equidad educativa. Los hallazgos indi-can que tanto los/as maestros/as alemanes/as como los/as argentinos/as diferencian a los/as estudiantes en función de su origen familiar y establecen una conexión directa entre origen desfavorecido-deficiencia de apoyo familiar y bajo rendimiento escolar. Como consecuencia, los/as maes-tros/as tienden a estereotipar negativamente tanto a los/as estudiantes como a las familias con un estatus socioeconómico bajo aludiendo a (a) la pobreza socio-material y sus efectos para el aprendizaje en la escuela, (b) los problemas familiares y (c) las (bajas) exigencias a los/as estudiantes. Sin embargo, encontramos diferencias entre las perspectivas de los/as maestros/as en am-bos países analizados en las actitudes que toman respecto de los problemas que se les presentan
Technoeconomic decision support for second-life batteries
The growth of electric vehicles (EVs) has raised concerns about the disposition of their batteries once they reach the end of their life. Currently, recycling is regarded as the potential solution for retired Li-ion batteries (LIBs). However, these LIBs can still be repurposed for other energy storage system (ESS) applications in their “second life” before recycling. Yet, there is no guidance for deciding whether to reuse or recycle them. Here, a technoeconomic decision support model is proposed to evaluate retired batteries from both technical and economic perspectives. Data-driven models are developed and combined with an equivalent circuit model (ECM) to build module-level aging models. Simulations show that limiting the State of Charge (SOC) operating range and charge current in second life applications can extend the lifetime of LIBs. Depending on when and how to use the battery in its second life, the simulated lifetime is between 1–6 years. From an economic perspective, the most profitable application is frequency regulation, which has a value of /kWh. A comprehensive comparison of different end-of-life strategies is presented to demonstrate the most economically way to handle a retired battery
