The Sounds of Trust: The Bouba–Kiki Effect in Political Leaders' Names

open access: yesKyklos, Volume 79, Issue 4, Page 955-978, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Prior research has found evidence for the bouba–kiki effect according to which individuals associate sounds related to “bouba” and “kiki” with shapes and feelings. Using individual data from the World Values Survey, we investigate whether political leaders with names that sound “bouba” or “kiki” are associated with higher or lower trust.

Inferring the Landscapes of Mutation and Recombination in the Common Marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) in the Presence of Twinning and Hematopoietic Chimerism

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 10, October 2026.
Using high‐quality population genomic data, Soni, Versoza and colleagues infer the rates and landscapes of mutation and recombination in the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus)—two fundamental processes dictating the levels and patterns of genetic variability—within the context of two biological peculiarities related to the reproductive mode of the ...

Minding the bonobo mind

open access: yes, 2017
We illustrate the central role the bonobo plays in testing evolutionary hypotheses regarding ape minds (including our own). The importance of bonobos has become apparent only recently with sustained fieldwork at multiple sites in the Congo Basin as well ...

Insights in the musculature of the bonobo hand

open access: yes, 2018
The human hand is well known for its unique dexterity which is largely facilitated by a highly mobile, long and powerful thumb that enables both tool manufacturing and use, a key component of human evolution. The bonobo (Pan paniscus), the closest extant

Regulatory networks of KRAB zinc finger genes and transposable elements changed during human brain evolution and disease

open access: yeseLife
Evidence indicates that transposable elements (TEs) can contribute to the evolution of new traits, with some TEs acting as deleterious elements while others are repurposed for beneficial roles in evolution. In mammals, some KRAB-ZNF proteins can serve as

Sociability Under Anthropogenic Change: From Individual Behaviour to Population‐Level Consequences

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
Our review synthesises empirical and theoretical research on how anthropogenic environmental change reshapes animal social behaviour from individuals to populations. We use sociability as an individual‐level lens, distinguishing context‐dependent expression from repeatable interindividual differences and linking both to social relationships, network ...

The impact of COVID‐19 on public perceptions of wild meat in Central Africa

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 10, Page 3250-3268, October 2026.
Abstract Wild meat is a significant source of food and income generation in Central Africa. However, there is little knowledge of how the assumed link between COVID‐19 and wild meat consumption has been discussed by the media and received by the public. In this study, we conducted media content analysis of 264 articles published in 2019–2020 related to
