Reconstructing the major skull myology of the giant stem‐amphibian Mastodonsaurus: A case study for early tetrapods

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We reconstruct the major cranial musculature of the giant stem amphibian Mastodonsaurus giganteus, revealing a differentiated jaw‐adductor system, a probable sesamoid pulley, and previously unrecognised muscles. This EPB‐based case study establishes an anatomical framework for modelling feeding in early tetrapods and supports interpretations of ...

Contextual Learning of New Meanings for Familiar Words: Perturbation of Original Meanings Occurs Without Deliberate Study

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract The present study investigated learning new meanings of known words from reading, following Hulme et al.’s (2018) study. English speakers read four short stories containing 16 critical words (i.e., familiar word forms assigned invented secondary meanings).

Being Biased and Knowing How to Reason

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This essay explains how reasoning is action and not reflex. It then uses that theory to explain one form of knowing how to reason. Reasoning is thinking biased by knowledge. Drawing on Louise Antony's emphasis on bias as critical for dealing with underdetermination in induction, I show that underdetermination confronts all forms of reasoning ...

Credibility–Constraint Decoupling and South Korea's Nuclear Option: Explaining Salience and Policy Conversion

open access: yesPacific Focus, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT South Korea presents a puzzle for threat‐centered accounts of allied nuclear politics. Why did South Korea advance into covert state‐directed exploration of a nuclear weapons option before North Korea possessed nuclear weapons, yet refrain from renewed state‐directed pursuit after North Korea built a substantial nuclear arsenal and posed a ...

Computational Modeling of Decision Making Enhances the Adversity Researcher's Toolbox

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the past decades, there has been major progress in our understanding of how adversity influences cognitive abilities and strategies. However, most of this research is based on raw performance, such as response times and accuracy. These measures are informative about decision‐making outcomes but tell us little about cognitive processes. In

Generalization of Motor Learning in Psychological Space

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The capacity to generate adaptive movements largely depends on how we generalize what we have previously learned to novel situations. The generalization of adapted movements has typically been framed as a consequence of neural tuning functions that overlap for similar movement kinematics—what might be considered bottom‐up generalization ...

Pre‐season friendly match‐play as a double‐edged sword: Performance gains and inflammatory cost in semi‐professional soccer players (a natural experiment)

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Pre‐season training prepares soccer players for competition, but the longitudinal effects of friendly match exposure remain unclear. We investigated whether cumulative late pre‐season match‐play is associated with physiological adaptation in semi‐professional players.

Estimating Sub‐Pixel Temperatures During Volcanic Eruptions Using Dual‐Band Thermal Imaging Technique: Case Studies From Whakaari/White Island (New Zealand) and Tofua (Tonga)

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 4, December 2026.
This study presents the first application of a dual‐band satellite thermal monitoring technique in New Zealand and Tonga, using the 2019 eruption of Whakaari/White Island and the persistently active Lofia crater on Tofua volcano as case studies. At Whakaari/White Island, near‐synchronous Landsat‐8 and Sentinel‐2A data (16 min interval) were analysed ...

Development of multi-layer ballistic armor panel with simulation and ballistic tests

open access: yes, 2020
Perforated armor plates are in use for many years to improve ballistic protection level of armored vehicles. Theoretically, when bullet impacted side of a hole, bending stress is generated to break incoming projectile core or at least projectile is diverted from its incident trajectory and thus reduce penetration capability.

Tracing the Untraceable: A Review and Discussion on the Forensic Attribution of 3D‐Printed Firearms

open access: yesWIREs Forensic Science, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2026.
3D‐printed firearms are rapidly evolving and challenge traditional forensic identification. This review highlights emerging attribution methods, from deposition striae and base‐plate marks to polymer and GSR residual traces, firing marks, and quantitative imaging, identifying the research needed to support robust forensic attribution interpretation and
