Open-Source Diffusion Using Government–Platform–User Evolutionary Game
Technological innovations, including the Internet of Things (IoT) and machine learning, have facilitated the emergence of autonomous systems, promoting triple bottom line (TBL) sustainability. However, the prevalent triopoly of Android, iOS, and Windows introduces substantial obstacles for smart device manufacturers in pursuit of independent innovation.

Learning Styles and English Classroom Anxiety
As an important affective and psychological factor, foreign language anxiety (FLA) has been much examined in second/foreign language (SL/FL) learning. Research shows that it is not only consistently negatively related to SL/FL learning outcomes measured in varying forms but also interacts with many other linguistic, educational, psychological, individual and affective factors. Mixed findings are often found about FLA and two important individual factors—gender and discipline, which might be due to different samples sizes and methods used in the studies.

Fine Motor Skill Development in Young Children
Fine motor skills (FMS) are fundamental for children’s growth, influencing their writing progress and everyday activities. Children's FMS are also assessed in their school readiness assessment, DIFER (Diagnostic System for Assessing Development) which is a widely used and standardized school readiness test in Hungary and some European countries. However, the development of these skills is a multifaceted process that is affected by various factors. Consequently, it becomes essential to comprehend the disparities in children’s fine motor skills (FMS) development and the predictive factors.
