Contralateral Thermal Pain and Naturally Occurring Muscle Pain Have Different Effects on Force Production During a Fixed Perceived Effort Handgrip Task

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Pain, Volume 30, Issue 6, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background In the presence of pain, performance during imposed workload motor tasks may be maintained at the cost of a higher perceived effort. This study investigated how experimentally induced contralateral thermal pain and naturally occurring muscle pain influence force production during a fixed perceived effort task.

The Loom Weight, the Spindle Whorl, and the Sword Beater – Evidence of Textile Activity in the Early Neolithic?

open access: yesOpen Archaeology, 2021
After the development of an experimental protocol concerning an enigmatic tool rarely recognized archaeologically and potentially used as a sword beater, that is, blades in bone or wood, we were able to establish certain diagnostic criteria.

Shaping the extinction burst: Increasing its probability and preventing its emergence across topographies

open access: yesJournal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, Volume 126, Issue 1, July 2026.
Abstract Extinction bursts are traditionally described as transient increases in response rate following the discontinuation of reinforcement. However, their underlying mechanisms remain under debate. This study examined whether extinction bursts are modulated by the contingencies across multiple extinction exposures.

Is There a Genetic Link Between Resting Infrared Thermography in Young Horses and Longevity in Jumping Competition?

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 4, Page 481-495, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The objective was to evaluate the genetic relationship between the surface temperature of regions of interest, measured using infrared images of young horses and functional longevity in jumping. This relationship was assessed by comparing the temperatures measured in the offspring of two groups of sires, one favourable and one unfavourable, to

Why Do Humans Exercise? A Neuro‐Evolutionary Framework for Discretionary Physical Effort

open access: yesEvolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 35, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Hominin evolution made physical activity obligatory for survival. Modern environments decoupled effort from ecological returns, generating an evolutionary mismatch that favors energy conservation over voluntary movement. This review distinguishes between subsistence‐based physical activity, the ancestral condition directly coupled to survival,

Phenotypic and genetic resistance to Septoria blotch disease in European wheat varieties

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Zymoseptoria tritici, the causal agent of Septoria tritici blotch (STB), poses a critical threat to wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production in temperate Europe, underscoring the need for durable genetic resistance. Here, we screened 151 winter wheat varieties at the seedling stage using a mixed inoculum of five virulent isolates.
