In the literature

Initial findings specified that in the majority of ambient-phase perovskites, α V exhibits a positive trend. 139 This positive trend results in a lowering of the bandgap energy initially, followed by a decrease in the crystal lattice constant or cell volume. 140 This phenomenon closely aligns with experimental observations, primarily due to the increment of orbital overlap resulting from the shortened bonds. 141 After a phase transition caused by increasing pressure, a blue shift in the bandgap may occur due to possible decreases in orbital overlap caused by crystal deformation or its tilt.
Regarding the locus of control, it should be noted that during the review of research data, three tendencies were identified in the study of this phenomenon in patients with cancer: 1) the positive role of an internal locus of control during the disease, contributing to a positive trend in recovery (Goldzweig et al., 2016; Van der Biessen et al., 2018); 2) the positive effect of an external locus of control on the state during treatment and its outcomes (Allart et al., 2013; Cousson-Gelie, 2014; Lima et al., 2018); 3) the absence of a correlation between the locus of control and various aspects of cancer (Iskandarsyah et al., 2014).
This was regarded as a statistical artefact because other possible reasons were ruled out, such as degradation of the matrix (which would result in a positive trend for all PBDEs, which was not the case) or dehalogenation of BDE209 (no decreasing trend was observed in the mass fraction of this congener).
