Abstract
This article presents findings from a survey conducted in Lima, Peru, aimed at understanding the relationships between education, financial literacy, financial inclusion, and informal financial business practices among small female vendors. The study, which collected 118 valid responses, focused on the impact of these factors on vendors’ intentions toward formalization. Formality was assessed based on legal registration with tax authorities, emphasizing the informal practices viewed on a continuum. These practices were evaluated using a five-point gradation scale that depicted varying levels of formality. Financial literacy, financial inclusion, and formalization intentions were measured using a five-point Likert scale, while a dichotomous question captured the formality-informality of the businesses. The demographic variables included age, gender, business tenure, employee count, and business activity. Educational level, typically treated as demographic, was considered an antecedent to financial literacy. The dataset linked to this study included raw survey data. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers, industry representatives, public authorities, and stakeholders from developing countries to deal with informality and formalization. The survey methodology and data are adaptable for use in different national contexts, facilitating comparative analysis in developing countries.
Abstract
Internationally, disabled and neurodivergent faculty members’ experiences in higher education often differ from the experiences of neurotypical and nondisabled faculty. This literature review discusses key themes including the experiences of disabled faculty with inequity and stigma, and the various ways in which disabled and neurodivergent faculty respond to these barriers, including hiding, fighting, advocating, self-accommodating, and challenging norms. Further research is needed to bridge the gap between disabled and neurodivergent faculty members’ experiences and the changes that higher education institutions could make in order to improve inclusion of neurodivergent and disabled faculty.

Abstract
In genetic criticism, scholarly editing, authorial philology and, more generally, for the study of authorial manuscripts and writing processes, it is essential to order and classify the textual witnesses and their relationships. This article presents two datasets of so-called ‘genetic networks’, that is representation of the genetic entities (witnesses, publications, dossiers) and their relationships, modelled according to the geno 1.0 ontology. The datasets contain genetic networks of the works of two Swiss authors: the main publications of Gustave Roud (1897–1976) and the short story “En mer” by Bernard Comment (1960).
