Behavioural responses of peach potato aphid, Myzus persicae Sulzer (Hemiptera: Aphididae), to entomopathogenic fungi infected conspecifics

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Myzus persicae showed no detectable behavioural response to Beauveria bassiana‐colonised agar alone. Aphids spent significantly more time in odour fields containing EPF‐infected conspecifics than healthy aphids, agar or blank air. EPF infection may alter host‐associated odours, suggesting pathogen‐mediated cues could influence aphid behaviour and ...

How shifting priorities and capacity affect policy work and constituency service: Evidence from a census of legislator requests to U.S. federal agencies

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract When elected officials gain power, do they use it to provide more constituent service or affect policy? The answer informs debates over how legislator capacity, term limits, and institutional positions affect legislator behavior. We distinguish two countervailing effects of increased institutional power: shifting priorities and increased ...

Rulers on the road: Itinerant rule in the Holy Roman Empire, AD 919–1519

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Itinerant rule, rule exercised through traveling, was a common yet insufficiently researched, premodern form of governance. Studying the determinants of ruler itineraries in the Holy Roman Empire, AD 919–1519, we argue that rulers' visits targeted “marginal” elites.

Abortion—A brief description of the evolution of methods

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Termination of pregnancy is not a “modern” societal issue, but one that has been afforded to women, albeit with varying degrees of success, over many centuries. Methods have evolved which have increased the availability, effectiveness, and safety of abortion, while substantially reducing associated morbidity.

Modern Fire Safety Protocols in the Archeological Contexts: A New Tool for Studying the Health and Behavioral Effects of Fire Use in Semi‐Closed Spaces

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluates the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, integrated with controlled fire experiments, to investigate combustion processes in semi‐closed spaces. The framework enables systematic modeling of smoke dispersal, particulate transport, and hearth performance under variable morphologies and ventilation ...

A qualitative investigation of the lived experiences of adults with anxiety and related disorders and ADHD: Interconnectedness of symptoms and implications for improving care

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is highly prevalent in adults with anxiety and related disorders (ARDs). Quantitative research on this clinical population is mixed, with some studies suggesting that anxiety is protective against some symptoms of ADHD and others in which co‐occurring ARDs and ADHD are linked to poorer
