Infants and Mobiles: Developing an Understanding of Cause and Effect

open access: yesDevelopmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT In the mobile conjugate reinforcement paradigm, an infant's leg is connected to a mobile via a string, allowing the infant to move the mobile via moving their leg. Over a few minutes, infants exhibit an increase in the frequency of movement of the connected leg.

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1406-1462, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

From Populations to Programming Variables: Post‐Activation Performance Enhancement Following Isometric Contractions on Muscular Strength and Power—A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 6, June 2026.
This systematic review and three‐level meta‐analysis examined the acute effects of isometric contractions as conditioning activities for post‐activation performance enhancement. The findings suggest that isometric contractions may produce a small but significant improvement in vertical jump height, whereas the evidence for muscular strength and power ...

The Role of Trait Empathy and State‐Level Emotion in Predicting Helpers' Facilitative Interpersonal Skill

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Psychology, Volume 82, Issue 6, Page 867-875, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Common factor, interpersonal, and dynamic therapies assume that therapists' trait empathy and in‐the‐moment emotional experiences play a central role in therapeutic processes. This study tested whether a trait level predictor (empathy) and three state‐level emotion predictors (anxiety, positive affect, negative affect) could predict ...

Towards Clinical Translation of Intravoxel Incoherent Motion MRI: Acquisition and Analysis Consensus Recommendations

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1782-1801, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) MRI allows for simultaneous assessment of tissue microcirculation (perfusion) and diffusion of water. In single‐center studies, IVIM has shown great potential for diagnosis, treatment outcome prediction, and treatment monitoring for many different diseases and organs.

Ballistic Impact Mechanisms and Responses of Textiles

open access: yes
Abstract This study aimed to investigate the use of composite laminates and fabrics for various impact-related applications, focusing on ballistic textiles and body armor. We analyzed the complex mechanical process of ballistic impacts, which depend on factors such as projectile parameters, material strength, ductility, and toughness.

Construction and Evaluation of a Ballistic Gelatin‐Based Simulator for Transcervical Chorionic Villus Sampling

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 1297-1306, June 2026.
Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) is a crucial prenatal diagnostic tool, but a declining number of procedures makes training a challenge. Here we describe a transcervical CVS simulator made from ballistic gelatin. Ninety‐three Maternal‐Fetal Medicine providers used the simulators during hands‐on workshops and completed surveys regarding their fidelity ...
