Trapped at Home: Individual and Situational Factors Associated With Violence Against Older Adults in Brazil

Gustavo C. Moreira, Vania Ceccato

Violence against older adults often occurs within domestic and family settings, but less is known about how these contexts vary by age and gender. This study examines the associations of age and gender with residential occurrence and family-related offending in Brazil. Using nationwide administrative health records for individuals aged 60 and older in 2024, we estimate logistic regression models for both outcomes. Women have higher odds than men of experiencing violence in residential settings and reporting family- …

Acid Aging Induced Room‐Temperature Vulcanized Silicone Rubber Flashover Mechanism and Enhancement via Nano‐ TiO 2 Modification

Zhongyuan Zhang, Ji Liu, Qianyi Fan, Chao Zhang, Yikun Dong, Zhen Li

ABSTRACT Room‐temperature vulcanized (RTV) silicone rubber is widely used as external insulation, but long‐term exposure to acidic media degrades its insulating performance and reduces flashover voltage. This study examines RTV's chemical structure, surface properties, and flashover behavior after 30 days of immersion in a pH = 1 HCl solution, and evaluates nano‐TiO 2 modification to improve acid resistance. Acid aging mainly hydrolyzes SiOSi and SiC bonds, producing SiOH groups that increase surface conductivi …

Common people? The elite market for ordinariness and how it legitimises income inequality

Aaron Reeves, Sam Friedman

Recent research has established that elites in many contexts are keen to portray themselves as ordinary and that such strategies of impression management have distinct reputational pay-offs. In this article, we draw on a range of experiments with a representative sample of the UK population to explore what happens when elite expressions of ordinariness are undermined. Our results suggest that elites are generally not punished when new – and potentially contradictory – information comes to light, unless such evidenc …
