Confidence in public institutions is critical in containing the COVID‐19 pandemic
World Medical &Health Policy, Volume 15, Issue 4, Page 553-569, December 2023., 2023 Abstract This paper investigates the relative importance of confidence in public institutions to explain cross‐country differences in the severity of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic. We find that a 1 SD increase (e.g., the actual difference between the United States and Finland) in confidence is associated with 56.3% fewer predicted ...

Homosexual groups face a high risk of violence, discrimination, and prejudice because of their sexual orientation.

Metrics for quantifying how much different threats contribute to red lists of species and ecosystems
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 5, October 2023., 2023 Abstract Red lists are a crucial tool for the management of threatened species and ecosystems. Among the information red lists provide, the threats affecting the listed species or ecosystem, such as pollution or hunting, are of special relevance.

Skeletal age during hurricane impacts fluctuating asymmetry in Cayo Santiago rhesus macaques
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2023., 2023 Fluctuating asymmetry (FA), or random deviations from symmetry, can be used as a proxy for developmental instability, and anthropogenic and natural disruptions have been associated with increased levels of FA. In this study, we investigate the effect of demographic variables (age, sex, and decade of birth) and hurricane experience on FA in a model ...

Regional development trap in Turkey: Can relatedness find a way out?
Papers in Regional Science, Volume 102, Issue 4, Page 817-850, August 2023., 2023 Abstract This study investigates the relationship between related and unrelated variety and regional development traps in 26 NUTS 2 regions across Turkey from 2014 to 2021. We propose two unique measures, DT1 and DT2, for these traps based on deviations from EU and emerging market nations.

Ibis, Volume 165, Issue 2, Page 587-601, April 2023., 2023 Mining is present in all major biomes worldwide and overlaps strongly with areas of importance for bird conservation. Mining causes multiple types of environmental disturbance, including habitat alteration, increased human presence and persistent heavy metal pollution. Feather coloration and fluctuating asymmetry (random deviation from perfect symmetry

Infant Mental Health Journal: Infancy and Early Childhood, Volume 44, Issue 2, Page 200-217, March 2023., 2023 Abstract Parenting interventions can improve parenting outcomes, with widespread implications for children's developmental trajectories. Relational savoring (RS) is a brief attachment‐based intervention with high potential for dissemination. Here we examine data from a recent intervention trial in order to isolate the mechanisms by which savoring ...

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, Volume 65, Issue 2, Page 223-231, February 2023., 2023 What this paper adds Parent‐reported questionnaire responses underestimated directly assessed visual morbidity. Grade 4 intraventricular haemorrhage and ventricular dilatation (IVHVD) was followed by more vision impairments than grade 3 IVHVD. Simple tests of visual perceptual skills correlated with the neuropsychology tests. Children with supranuclear

Lizard thermoregulation revisited after two decades of global warming
Functional Ecology, Volume 36, Issue 12, Page 3022-3035, December 2022., 2022 Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Although the effects of global warming on thermoregulation are usually explored using predictions of climate envelop modelling, such effects should best be analysed empirically, studying the same population with the same methods after a long enough period of temperature

La réhabilitation par l’intervention : trajectoire inusitée ?
Criminologie, 2012 On ne s’est guère intéressé aux trajectoires de vie « résiduelles » des ex-détenus qui ont cessé leurs activités criminelles, au sort des ex-toxicomanes qui ont cessé leur consommation ou aux trajectoires de vie des pédophiles qui ont opté pour l ...
