The engaged action hypothesis: Explaining the merits of external focus cues
Mind &Language, EarlyView.The attentional focus effect—the theory that focusing on the body during skilled tasks leads to suboptimal results relative to focusing externally—is well established, but it is not known why it holds. The most widely cited explanation is the constrained action hypothesis: Focusing on the body interferes with beneficial automatic motor programs.

A search for lithium in metal-poor L dwarfs
, 2015 The aim of the project is to search for lithium in absorption at 6707.8 Angstroms to constrain the nature and the mass of the brightest low-metallicity L-type dwarfs (refered to as L subdwarfs) identified in large-scale surveys.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract We investigated the acute metabolic effects of two velocity‐based resistance training (RT) protocols, differing in intra‐set velocity loss (VL) thresholds, on postprandial substrate oxidation and glycaemic responses following a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test in individuals with excess body weight.

Utilizing high‐throughput phenotyping to identify metribuzin tolerance in winter wheat
The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Plant breeders and weed scientists address weed management collaboratively by selecting for herbicide tolerance in breeding programs. Metribuzin, a Group 5 PSII‐inhibiting herbicide, is labeled for use in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). However, application to currently available lines results in frequent, variable, and unpredictable crop injury.
