Linking interindividual variability in brain structure to behaviour

Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2022
What are the brain structural correlates of interindividual differences in behaviour? More than a decade ago, advances in structural MRI opened promising new avenues to address this question. The initial wave of research then progressively led to substantial conceptual and methodological shifts, and a replication crisis unveiled the limitations of ...

Temporal expectation based on the duration variability modulates alpha oscillations during working memory retention

NeuroImage, 2023
While maintaining information over a delay of time, working memory (WM) also allows individuals to prepare the mnemonic contents for prospective utilisation. However, it remains unclear whether the expectation of the time of WM test could modulate neural

Formalising the multidimensional nature of social networks [PDF]

, 2011
Individuals interact with conspecifics in a number of behavioural contexts or dimensions. Here, we formalise this by considering a social network between n individuals interacting in b behavioural dimensions as a nxnxb multidimensional object.

Effects of lake warming on behavioural thermoregulatory tactics in a cold-water stenothermic fish. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Despite some evidence of within-population phenotypic variation in fish thermal behaviour, the occurrence of alternative tactics of this behaviour is rarely explicitly considered when studying natural populations. Brook charr provide an example of within-

Sexual dimorphism in trait variability and its eco-evolutionary and statistical implications

eLife, 2020
Biomedical and clinical sciences are experiencing a renewed interest in the fact that males and females differ in many anatomic, physiological, and behavioural traits. Sex differences in trait variability, however, are yet to receive similar recognition.

Day2day: investigating daily variability of magnetic resonance imaging measures over half a year

BMC Neuroscience, 2017
Background Most studies of brain structure and function, and their relationships to cognitive ability, have relied on inter-individual variability in magnetic resonance (MR) images.

On the tail behaviour of aggregated random variables

Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 2022
In many areas of interest, modern risk assessment requires estimation of the extremal behaviour of sums of random variables. We derive the first order upper-tail behaviour of the weighted sum of bivariate random variables under weak assumptions on their marginal distributions and their copula.

Acute toxicity of synyhetic resin effluent to African Catfish, Clarias gariepinus [BURCHELL, 1822]. [PDF]

, 2012
Aquatic pollution as a field has gained a lot of attention over the decades majorly because of the vital role the aquatic environment plays in the human lifecycle.

The construction of a measure of behavioural complexity as a potential individual-based welfare indicator and its theoretical validation

Animal Welfare
Behavioural complexity is likely to reflect how animals cope with their environment. A large behavioural repertoire and the ability to flexibly apply these behaviours provide an individual with a greater likelihood of adapting to its (captive ...
