Curiosity is a powerful source of motivation and allows us to explore and acquire knowledge without relying on extrinsic incentives. So far, studies have mostly focused on the curiosity felt towards a specific object. Using a paradigm that sequentially activates curiosity on a trial-by-trial basis with trivia questions, we showed that the curiosity of ...

Temporal carry‐over effects in sequential plant–soil feedbacks [PDF]
Plant–soil feedbacks (PSF) strongly influence plant performance. However, to what extent these PSF effects are persistent in the soil and how they are altered by species that subsequently condition the soil is unclear. Here we test how conspecific and heterospecific soil‐conditioning effects interact across different soil ...

Communal breeding, wherein multiple conspecifics live and reproduce together, may generate short-term benefits in terms of defence and reproduction. However, its carry-over effects remain unclear. We experimentally tested the effects of communal breeding

Potential Impact of Carry-Over Effects in the Dynamics and Management of Seasonal Populations. [PDF]
For many species living in changing environments, processes during one season influence vital rates in a subsequent season in the same annual cycle. The interplay between these carry-over effects between seasons and other density-dependent events can ...

Optimal cross-over designs for full interaction models [PDF]
We consider repeated measurement designs when a residual or carry-over effect may be present in at most one later period. Since assuming an additive model may be unrealistic for some applications and leads to biased estimation of treatment effects, we ...

ABSTRACT Background Loneliness is associated with adverse physical and mental health outcomes and remains understudied in children and adolescents undergoing cancer therapy. Pediatric oncology patients may be at increased risk due to medical isolation and disruption of social networks.

For birds breeding in the Arctic, nest success is affected by the timing of nest initiation, which is partially determined by local conditions such as snow cover.
