			<title>Why tipping keeps rising and may not improve service</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/03/260302030637.htm</link>
			<description>Why do we tip—even when we know we’ll never see the server again? New research suggests it’s not just about rewarding good service, but about social pressure. Some people tip out of genuine appreciation, while others simply follow the norm. But here’s the twist: those who truly value great service tend to tip more than average, and everyone else adjusts upward to match them.</description>

			<title>War has pushed Gaza’s children to the brink – “like the living dead”</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/01/260111214447.htm</link>
			<description>A new study warns that war in Gaza has pushed children to the edge, leaving many too hungry, weak, or traumatized to learn. Education has nearly collapsed, with years of schooling lost to conflict, hunger, and fear. Researchers say children are losing faith in the future and in basic ideas like peace and human rights. Without urgent aid, Gaza faces the risk of a lost generation.</description>

			<title>The real reason incomes rise and why they drop</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/12/251219093312.htm</link>
			<description>Getting ahead financially is mainly about what you earn at work, not what you make from investments. Researchers found that promotions, skills, and better jobs drive most upward income movement. But when people slip backward, falling investment income is usually the main reason. Labor builds income steadily; capital is riskier and more unpredictable.</description>

			<title>Half of today’s jobs could vanish—Here’s how smart countries are future-proofing workers</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/06/250622030429.htm</link>
			<description>AI is revolutionizing the job landscape, prompting nations worldwide to prepare their workforces for dramatic changes. A University of Georgia study evaluated 50 countries’ national AI strategies and found significant differences in how governments prioritize education and workforce training. While many jobs could disappear in the coming decades, new careers requiring advanced AI skills are emerging. Countries like Germany and Spain are leading with early education and cultural support for AI, but few emphasize developing essential human soft skills like creativity and communication—qualities AI can&#039;t replace.</description>

			<title>Study documents impacts of large-scale entry of rooftop solar panels on competition</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/03/250325141713.htm</link>
			<description>Fossil-fuel plants are increasingly being forced to stop and start production in response to changes in output from renewables. In a new study, researchers developed a dynamic competitive benchmark that accounts for start-up costs and other unit-level operating constraints. They apply their framework to Western Australia, a setting where rooftop solar capacity more than doubled between 2014 to 2018 to world-leading rooftop solar penetration rates. The study found that the large-scale expansion of rooftop solar capacity can lead to increases in the collective profitability of fossil fuel plants because competition softens at sunset--- plants displaced by solar during the day must incur start-up costs to compete in the evening.</description>

			<description>A study shows that long-term unemployed individuals perceive their capabilities as weaker than the general Finnish population. Capabilities refer to the opportunities to achieve important things in life, such as health and well-being. Additionally, the study found that long-term unemployed men perceive their capabilities as weaker than long-term unemployed women.</description>

			<title>Medicare rules may reduce prescription steering</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/01/250110121742.htm</link>
			<description>Researchers have found that pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) -- organizations that negotiate access to medicines for most patients in the United States -- steer patients to use their own pharmacies. However, these pharmacies appear less used in Medicare than in other market segments. These PBMs are part of integrated health care conglomerates that own insurance companies and pharmacies, which may create conflicts of interest.</description>

			<title>Is there really a mid-career crisis? Job satisfaction follows a U-shaped curve only among highly skilled workers, according to new study</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/01/250109141225.htm</link>
			<description>Contrary to the long-held belief that the mid-career crisis plagues everyone, new research suggests that job satisfaction follows a U-shaped trajectory only for managerial and professional workers. This provocative finding challenges societal perceptions surrounding midlife and calls for a revaluation of workplace support for individuals in their 40s and 50s.</description>

			<title>Education scholar calls for ecological shift to &#039;school within a school&#039; to give students autonomy needed for success</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/12/241212115833.htm</link>
			<description>An international education expert, argues in a new study for an ecological shift to a &#039;school within a school&#039; approach that would give students, teachers and parents the ability to guide their own education with autonomy and self-determination. The approach could replicate how businesses and natural ecosystems and species adapt and succeed. The approach is an alternative to the system-wide attempts at school reform that have repeatedly failed to produce effective change for nearly 200 years, he argues.</description>

			<title>Math-selective US universities reduce gender gap in STEM fields</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/11/241121141051.htm</link>
			<description>Nationally, men in colleges and universities currently outpace women in earning degrees in physics, engineering, and computer science (PECS) by an approximate ratio of 4 to 1. To better understand the factors driving these gaps, researchers analyzed bachelor&#039;s degrees awarded in the US from 2002-2022, and found that the most selective universities by math SAT scores have nearly closed the PECS gender gap while less selective universities have seen it widen dramatically.</description>

			<title>New study urges enhanced recruitment strategies to help address US primary care physician shortages</title>

			<description>A new study evaluated the effects of citizenship status on physician specialty choice and practice location among U.S. citizen and non-citizen international medical graduates (IMGs), which account for a quarter of all active physicians in the U.S. Citizenship status has significant effects on IMGs&#039; choices of specialties and practice locations. Though non-citizen IMGs were historically found to be more likely to specialize in primary care and work in rural areas and shortage areas, the proportion has declined over the past decade. Strategies to recruit physicians to specialize in primary care, and especially to practice in underserved areas, should be tailored to the unique characteristics of IMGs.</description>

			<description>Even though climate change is bringing more frequent and severe heat waves, there is no standard, global way to measure heat-wave severity, and existing indices have different thresholds for defining dangerous heat-stress conditions. Researchers report that five out of six existing heat-wave indices were unable to capture the severity and spatial distribution of recent lethal heat waves in India, Spain, and the USA. The sixth index -- the lethal heat-stress index -- was better able to identify dangerous heat-stress conditions, particularly in low-humidity regions.</description>

			<title>Companies that mitigate climate change reduce their cost of capital</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/07/240708101020.htm</link>
			<description>A recent study explored the relationship between corporate climate change mitigation actions and the cost of capital for 2,100 Japanese listed companies from 2017 to 2021. The findings reveal that companies that maintain lower carbon intensity and disclose more climate-related information can reduce their capital costs. Conversely, mere commitments to climate change without actionable measures do not significantly impact costs.</description>

			<title>Rising health care prices are driving unemployment and job losses</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/06/240624125705.htm</link>
			<description>Rising health care prices in the U.S. are leading employers outside the health care sector to reduce their payroll and decrease their number of employees, according to a new study. The study found that when health care prices increased, non-health care employers responded by reducing their payroll and cutting the jobs of middle-class workers. For the average county, a 1% increase in health care prices would reduce aggregate income in the area by approximately $8 million annually.</description>

			<description>Income inequality and carbon dioxide emissions for high-income nations such as the United States, Denmark and Canada are intrinsically linked -- but a new study has taken a deeper look at the connection and found this relationship is less fixed, can change over time, and differ across emission components. The findings could help countries set a course toward reducing emissions of the harmful greenhouse gas and alleviating domestic income inequality at the same time.</description>

			<title>Robot-phobia could exacerbate hotel, restaurant labor shortage</title>
			<link>https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/05/240520122738.htm</link>
			<description>Using more robots to close labor gaps in the hospitality industry may backfire and cause more human workers to quit, according to a new study. The study, involving more than 620 lodging and food service employees, found that &#039;robot-phobia&#039; -- specifically the fear that robots and technology will take human jobs -- increased workers&#039; job insecurity and stress, leading to greater intentions to leave their jobs. The impact was more pronounced with employees who had real experience working with robotic technology. It also affected managers in addition to frontline workers.</description>
