She Doesn't Whisper: Female‐Prominent Stridulation Shaped by Morphology in a Buthid Scorpion and Insights on Its Function

open access: yesEthology, Volume 132, Issue 8, Page 533-543, August 2026.
Sexual dimorphism and stress‐induced stridulatory responses in Jaguajir rochae (Borelli, 1910). Females exhibited greater absolute pectinal size and higher sound pressure levels, whereas males showed higher pectinal allometric ratios relative to body size, lower sound frequencies, and shorter delta times.

How Food Geometry and Toughness Influence Ingestive Patterns in Lemurs

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 7, July 2026.
Initial bite placement is influenced by food toughness and geometry. Species‐specific feeding strategies reflect differences in masticatory morphology and functional flexibility. Lemur catta is more likely to use the postcanine tooth row; Propithecus verreauxi prefers anterior biting. ABSTRACT We investigate the extent to which food toughness, geometry,

Early Communicative‐Language Emergence: Identification of Late Talkers and Parental Perceptions of a Web‐Based Parent‐Report Assessment Tool

open access: yesInfant and Child Development, Volume 35, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Evidence on communicative‐language development paths across children with and without a late language emergence (LLE) is mixed, particularly concerning socio‐conversational skills (SCS) and executive functions (EFs). We administered a web‐based communicative‐language assessment completed by parents of 202 children aged 24–36 months.

Social roles and resource competition mediate intraspecific interactions of Chilean Flamingo (Phoenicopterus chilensis) in southern Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, Volume 329, Issue 3, Page 257-270, July 2026.
In social birds such as flamingos, intraspecific interactions are frequent and play a key role in flock cohesion, communication, and the establishment of social networks. Understanding the patterns and drivers of these interactions can provide valuable ecological insights and inform management, husbandry, and conservation practices.

A sensory ecology approach to understanding snakebites: Influence of sensory cues on the strike of the lancehead pitviper

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, Volume 329, Issue 3, Page 237-246, July 2026.
Snakes are notable for having a broad range of predators and one of the most diverse repertoires of defensive behaviors. During heightened responses to aversive stimuli, one of the behaviors displayed is the venomous bite, particularly relevant because it triggers snakebite incidents in humans.

Poverty Attributions and Voting Choices in the 2023 Swiss National Elections

open access: yesSwiss Political Science Review, Volume 32, Issue 2, Page 299-331, June 2026.
Abstract Is poverty a relevant issue for Swiss electoral politics and political behavior? In this paper we answer that question by showing that citizens’ agreement with different causal attributions of poverty matters for their voting decisions. Of highest relevance is the difference between an “individual blame” explanation (i.e., the poor are lazy ...

How the Electoral System Influences Personalization and Individual Campaign Spending: Evidence from Switzerland's First‐Time Finance Disclosure Regulations

open access: yesSwiss Political Science Review, Volume 32, Issue 2, Page 412-430, June 2026.
Abstract Personalization—greater candidate‐centeredness at the expense of political parties—is a defining feature of 21st‐century electoral politics. But to what extent does the electoral system shape this trend? We develop a theoretical argument rooted in the design of open‐list proportional representation (OLPR).

Mapping the neurovascular landscape in aging and dementia: cerebral small vessel disease markers in a multicenter Latin American cohort

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is a key contributor to cognitive impairment and dementia, yet few studies have compared CSVD across dementia variants, particularly in underrepresented populations. METHODS In a multicenter cross‐sectional study, we analyzed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) markers of CSVD, including white ...
