Mean-motion resonances in 2025: theory, surveys, and a few surprises from the main belt to the Kuiper belt.
Self-determination theory: basic psychological needs in motivation, development, and wellness
A key comprehensive book on self-determination theory. If you don’t want to read all the articles and want a single source, you won’t find a better option.

Self-determination theory: a consideration of human motivational universals
A chapter in a Personality Psychology book devoted to self-determination theory. An alternative to the “full” version from the 2017 book if you want to save time.

Existential Digest
Meet the new collection on scales measuring existential concerns
Self-determination theory and the facilitation of intrinsic motivation, social development, and well-being.
An excellent overview article on self-determination theory. A bit shorter than the book. Useful for a “quick” understanding of the theory.

The general causality orientations scale: Self-determination in personality
An empirical measure within the framework of Self-Determination Theory that identifies causal orientation (autonomous, external, or impersonal). The primary instrument for the corresponding construct.

Origin and dynamics of Near Earth Objects
A dynamical steady-state model links NEO orbits to asteroid-belt resonances, highlighting Yarkovsky drift as the key resupply mechanism. A bit outdated.

Identification and analysis of interior and exterior resonant orbits in the Sun–Venus system
Interesting paper to learn about the dynamics of mmr with Venus in the CR3BP model. Advanced, require some background in celestial mechanics.

Planar near-Earth asteroids in resonance with the Earth
Useful to learn about what mmr with Earth may be relevant for NEOs. Quite advanced, not an easy reading.

The Justice Motive as a Personal Resource
The belief in a just world is not merely a philosophical/theoretical construct. It helps on the daily basis to maintain well-being. That's something I see also in my counselling.

The World is More Just for Me than Generally: About the Personal Belief in a Just World Scale's Validity
The Personal Belief in a Just World scale. In other words, people may believe that the world is generally unjust, but that it doesn’t really affect them personally; however, when it comes to things they constantly encounter, that may no longer work...

Existential Concerns Arising From a Threat to the Belief in a Just World: A Mixed-Methods Study
Many people believe that the existential concerns are givens of the existence. However, it could be the case that they are triggered by other fundamental beliefs, such as a belief in a just world.

Marginalia is a platform for expert-curated scientific reading lists and digests. Domain experts select significant papers, assign verdicts — Must Read, Worth Reading, Skim, Niche, or Skip — rate difficulty, and write personal commentary. AI assists with discovery and summarization, but every verdict and note is a human expert's opinion.
Built by researchers, for researchers. Currently covering astronomy and psychology, with more fields coming.
