A BreakoutEDU for understanding gene expression in high school. A case study: Design, implementation, and evaluation of the emotions of its implementation. [PDF]

open access: yesBiochem Mol Biol Educ
Abstract Knowledge about genetics is essential to build a society capable of participating in socioscientific and ethical debates. However, this subject remains difficult for students, making it necessary to develop new educational strategies, such as gamification.

Body size as a mediator of climatic effects: Insights from a long-term study of social Iberian magpies. [PDF]

open access: yesEcology
Abstract The importance of considering body size in assessing evolutionary responses to climatic change is increasingly recognized, as body size correlates with morphological, physiological, and ecological traits that are climate‐sensitive and influence fitness.

Effects of out‐of‐school physical activity interventions based on self‐determination theory in children and adolescents: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 33, Issue 10, Page 1929-1947, October 2023., 2023
Objective This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to examine the effects of out‐of‐school physical activity (PA) interventions, based on Self‐Determination Theory (SDT), on basic psychological needs (BPN), motivation toward PA, and PA levels in youths. Design Systematic review and meta‐analyses.

Is higher physical fitness associated with better psychological health in young pediatric cancer survivors? A cross‐sectional study from the iBoneFIT project

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 33, Issue 7, Page 1157-1167, July 2023., 2023
Objective To examine the associations of self‐perceived and objectively‐measured physical fitness with psychological well‐being and distress indicators in young pediatric cancer survivors. Materials and Methods A total of 116 participants (12.1 ± 3.3 years, 56.9% boys) from the iBoneFIT project participated in this cross‐sectional study.

Demographic and spatially explicit landscape genomic analyses in a tropical oak reveal the impacts of late Quaternary climate change on Andean montane forests

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 12, Page 3182-3199, June 2023., 2023
Abstract The tropical Andes are one of the most important biodiversity hotspots on Earth, yet our understanding of how their biotas have responded to Quaternary climatic oscillations is extraordinarily limited and the alternative models proposed to explain their demographic dynamics have been seldom formally evaluated. Here, we test the hypothesis that

Causes of the recent decline of a Lesser Kestrel (Falco naumanni) population under an enhanced conservation scenario

open access: yesIbis, Volume 165, Issue 2, Page 388-402, April 2023., 2023
Lesser Kestrel Falco naumanni (Fleischer, 1818) populations have been one of the best monitored bird populations in Spain over the last 70 years. These populations suffered a sharp decline between the 1950s and 1990s. Since then, periodic censuses showed a population increase that lasted until the 2010s.

Temperature synchronizes temporal variation in laying dates across European hole‐nesting passerines

open access: yesEcology, Volume 104, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Identifying the environmental drivers of variation in fitness‐related traits is a central objective in ecology and evolutionary biology. Temporal fluctuations of these environmental drivers are often synchronized at large spatial scales. Yet, whether synchronous environmental conditions can generate spatial synchrony in fitness‐related trait ...

Unravelling the historical biogeography of the European rabbit subspecies in the Iberian Peninsula

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 53, Issue 1, Page 1-14, January 2023., 2023
We used biogeographical spatial models to understand the biogeography of the two subspecies of European rabbit that are found in the Iberian Peninsula. After the last glaciation, each subspecies expanded from its own isolated core, as suggested by the two maps.

The effectiveness of physical and virtual manipulatives on learning and motivation in structural engineering

open access: yesJournal of Engineering Education, Volume 111, Issue 4, Page 813-851, October 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Recent advances in technology and computer simulation have expanded the use of virtual manipulatives in engineering education. However, especially in disciplines in which tactile concepts (e.g., force) are included, it has been claimed that learning could be compromised by substituting physical materials with computer simulations ...
