Welcome to STORRE: Stirling Online Research Repository
STORRE holds a continually growing collection of the full text of the research outputs of University of Stirling authors. It includes published journal articles, conference papers, book chapters, working papers, etc. As a result of the University policy encouraging open access, the repository will continue to develop as an important source of free full text access to Stirling's research.
STORRE also holds the full text of all University of Stirling research theses from September 2006 onwards; covering PhDs, Masters of Philosophy and Masters by Research plus Professional Higher Degrees by Research. A small collection of our older theses is also included, and is continually added to, due to our involvement in the British Library's EThOS service.

Choksy US, Sinkovics N & Sinkovics RR (2017) Exploring the relationship between upgrading and capturing profits from GVC participation for disadvantaged suppliers in developing countries. <i>Canadian Journal of Administrative Sciences / Revue Canadienne des Sciences de l'Administration</i>, 34 (4), pp. 356-386. https://doi.org/10.1002/cjas.1455
See
The existing literature on global value chains (GVCs) suggests that functional upgrading is a key determinant of whether suppliers are able to capture higher profits in GVCs. However, it is unclear whether the same argument holds for disadvantaged suppliers who face high barriers to achieving functional upgrading. Through a review of existing empirical studies, the present paper aims to explore how disadvantaged suppliers in developing countries increase their profits in the face of barriers ...

The danger posed by waterborne toxicity from herbicides endangers the aquatic ecosystem. Using dietary medicinal herbs is a useful approach to mitigate the effects of herbicide toxicity on aquatic animals. This study attempts to examine the consequences and potential mechanisms behind the dietary addition of horseradish tree (Moringa oleifera) leaf extract (MOLE) with the help of phytase addition to check the overall growth performance, biochemical changes, histological alteration, and gene e...
Kirk T (2024) <i>Clarification of conceptual aspects of the UNCRC: Guiding Principles and Evolving Capacities - Written evidence</i>. Scottish Government Consultation.
See
First paragraph: This response will focus on the concept of evolving capacities. The current statutory guidance separates the guiding principles from the concept of evolving capacities risking underappreciation of their interconnectedness and key role in underpinning all rights in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). This paper outlines the interconnectedness of human rights, discusses the limitations of the guiding principles and emphasises the importance of cons...
Machine Learning-Driven Sentiment Analysis of UK CBDC Tweets Versus Thematic Evaluation of Public and Institutional Perspectives: A Comprehensive Study on the Digital Pound
See
In an era of rapid digital transformation and declining cash usage, central banks worldwide are exploring
digital currencies to modernise monetary systems and maintain monetary sovereignty. The proposed digital
pound in the UK has ignited intense debate among policymakers and citizens, particularly concerning issues
of privacy, surveillance, and economic inclusion. Against this backdrop, this study investigates how public
sentiment evolves in response to policy milestones and how it align...
Baumann S & Singleton C (2025) They were robbed! Scoring by the middlemost to attenuate biased judging in boxing. <i>Journal of Sports Economics</i>. https://doi.org/10.1177/15270025251348186
See
Boxing has long grappled with the problem of biased or "bad" judging. At its worst, this leads to "Robberies", where boxers are widely seen as being denied rightful victories. Such incidents risk alienating fans and athletes. To address this problem, we propose a minimalist adjustment to the scoring system: the winner would be decided from the round-by-round scores of the judges, rather than relying on the judges' overall bout scores. This approach, known as consensus scoring, is rooted in so...
