Taking the Evolution of the Standards of Proof for a Criminal Conviction Seriously

open access: yesQuaestio Facti
The article offers a diachronic and comparative analysis of different standards of proof for a criminal conviction. The first part focuses on the attempt of medieval and early modern Roman-canon systems to clarify this type of rule through a network of ...

How to Statistically Show the Absence of an Effect

open access: yesPsychologica Belgica, 2011
In experimental studies, the lack of statistical significance is often interpreted as the absence of an effect. Unfortunately, such a conclusion is often a serious misinterpretation. Indeed, non-significant results are just as often the consequence of an

The morphology of the oval window in Paranthropus robustus compared to humans and other modern primates

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The oval window (OW) is an opening connecting the inner and middle ear. Its area has been shown to consistently scale with body mass (BM) in primates, and has been used alongside semi‐circular canal (SCC) size to differentiate Homo sapiens and fossil hominins, including Paranthropus robustus.

Origin, evolution and biogeographic dynamics of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in Southwestern Europe

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

T. rex cognition was T. rex‐like—A critical outlook on diverging views of the neurocognitive evolution in dinosaurs

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract A recent debate has emerged between Caspar et al. (2024) and Herculano‐Houzel (2023) on inferring extinct dinosaur cognition by estimating brain neuron counts. While thought‐provoking, the discussion largely overlooks the function of cognition, as well as partly neglects the difficulties involved in estimating neuron numbers, which according ...

EL ESTÁNDAR DE CONVICCIÓN DE LA DUDA RAZONABLE EN EL PROCESO PENAL CHILENO, EN PARTICULAR LA RELEVANCIA DEL VOTO DISIDENTE The standard of conviction of reasonable doubt in the Chilean criminal procedure, especially referred to the relevance of a minority vote

open access: yesIus et Praxis, 2011
El sistema procesal penal chileno introdujo un nuevo estándar de convicción para condenar: más allá de toda duda razonable. Éste surge de la tradición jurídica anglosajona, por lo que resulta poco conocido -y bajo cierta interpretación inaplicable-en el ...

Endothermy, neuron counts, and other issues: Further remarks on neurocognitive evolution in fossil vertebrates

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Last year, we challenged the view that large‐bodied theropod dinosaurs such as Tyrannosaurus rex resembled primates in cognition and behavior, a proposition made by Herculano‐Houzel in 2023. More recently, Jensen et al. have criticized our work on this topic, raising methodological and conceptual issues.

Emotional responses of veterinary students to first encounters with animal body donors

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Students' first encounters with animal body donors in higher education are a formative and also potentially stressful experience. The complex emotions elicited by body donor use in learning and their effects on professional development have been documented in medical students, but are far less explored in veterinary medical counterparts.

Medical students' perspectives on body donation to science within the Italian context

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Body donation is essential for medical education and research, supporting anatomical training and clinical competence. In Italy, national data on awareness of the legislation regulating body donation and factors shaping donation‐related decisions among healthcare trainees remain limited. This study investigated knowledge of the legal framework,

Essential work, invisible workers: The role of digital curation in COVID‐19 Open Science

open access: yesJournal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, Volume 76, Issue 4, Page 703-717, April 2025.
Abstract In this paper, we examine the role digital curation practices and practitioners played in facilitating open science (OS) initiatives amid the COVID‐19 pandemic. In Summer 2023, we conducted a content analysis of available information regarding 50 OS initiatives that emerged—or substantially shifted their focus—between 2020 and 2022 to address ...
