Underpowered studies and exaggerated effects: A replication and re‐evaluation of the magnitude of anchoring effects

Economic Inquiry, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 387-402, April 2025.
Abstract We reconsider one of the most widely studied behavioral biases: anchoring effects. We estimate that study designs in this literature, including replication studies, routinely fail to achieve statistical power of more than 30%. This study replicates an anchoring study that reported an effect size of a 31% increase in participants' bids.

In Situ Colloidal Activated Carbon for PFAS Remediation in Groundwater: Principles, Performance Expectations, and Lessons from the First Decade

Groundwater Monitoring &Remediation, EarlyView.
Abstract Injectable colloidal activated carbon (CAC) has been commercially used to remediate per and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in groundwater since 2016. The basis of the technology is enhanced PFAS retention within the aquifer from engineered increases in aquifer‐matrix sorptivity (“PFAS enhanced retention”), with re‐equilibration from the ...

Hydromulches in Organic Strawberry Production: Effects on Densities of Insect Pests and Natural Enemies

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Liquid‐sprayable cellulose hydromulches (HM) are alternatives to plastic polyethylene (PE) mulches for weed suppression in organic agriculture. However, their impact on arthropod pests and natural enemies remains unexplored. Various HMs made of shredded newsprint, water and guar gum were compared against white‐on‐black PE mulch, paper sheet ...

Effects of Dietary Activated Charcoal Supplementation on Performance, Egg Quality, and Bone Calcification in Laying Hens Exposed to High Fluoride

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of the present study was to determine the effects of high dietary fluoride intake on performance, egg quality, serum biochemical parameters, bone tissue, mineral accumulation, and the expression of selected mineralisation‐related genes in laying hens, and to evaluate whether these effects could be alleviated by dietary activated ...

Biphasic Extraction of Selected Heavy Metals From Corn With the Aid of Kosmotropic Salts

Analytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, December 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigated the use of aqueous two‐phase extraction (ATPE) with kosmotropic salts for the extraction of toxic heavy metals from maize. Heavy metals, such as cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr) and iron (Fe), are harmful to human health because they accumulate in the food chain and may cause kidney damage, cancer and nervous system problems.

Current Knowledge on Phytoremediation Potential of Industrial Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) for PFAS and Heavy Metal Contaminated Soils

Remediation Journal, Volume 36, Issue 2, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT This review synthesizes current research on the phytoremediation potential of industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) for heavy metals, including arsenic, aluminium, mercury, copper, lead, cadmium, nickel, and zinc, as well as per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), commonly referred to as “forever chemicals.” A structured and transparent ...
