Global meta‐analysis reveals urban‐associated behavioural differences among wild populations

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Urbanization drives rapid phenotypic change, yet broad patterns of behavioural responses remain unclear. Using a global phylogenetic meta‐analysis, we show urban populations exhibit increased boldness, aggression, exploration and activity—especially in birds—highlighting consistent behavioural shifts and revealing major taxonomic gaps that limit our ...

High thermal plasticity, low heritability and constant directional selection on breeding phenology in a viviparous ectotherm

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our findings reveal that breeding phenology of the common lizard is shaped by strong thermal plasticity, body size effects, constant selection for earlier parturition, but low heritability. This suggests that phenological responses to climate change in this species, and likely in other squamates, will predominantly arise through plastic rather than ...

Realizing a Regenerative Future by Revisiting Our Roots: A Dialectical Model of Management for the Circular Economy

open access: yesBritish Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract The circular economy (CE) is often treated as a technological or system‐design challenge. We argue that it is also a managerial transition that remains under‐theorized. Rather than assuming that CE requires wholly new managerial frameworks, we revisit Fayol's functions of planning, organizing, leading and controlling as enduring managerial ...

Eyes on the water: How local mariners can accurately detect a submerged human proxy in shallow nearshore coastal water with modern recreational fish finders

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract It has recently been demonstrated that modern recreational fish finders with high‐frequency (800 kHz) Sidescan transducers can detect submerged human bodies. This ubiquitous technology is widely used on the water and has the potential to be utilized for the rapid detection of submerged decedents in any waterbody.

Area of origin analysis for expirated patterns using HemoVision

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Although bloodstain pattern analysis (BPA) can be performed on various types of patterns, there is a lack of research looking into whether the area of origin (AO) can be determined for expirated patterns. Expirated patterns are formed when blood is pushed out of an opening in the body by the force of air, in some cases forming a pattern of ...

“A few more bites?”: Manifestation of pressure‐to‐eat in child care

open access: yesNutrition &Dietetics, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Pressuring children to eat can override hunger and satiety cues, which may lead to over‐ or under‐eating and food refusal. This study aims to describe the manifestations of pressure‐to‐eat in child care from early childhood educators. Methods A secondary data analysis was conducted using qualitative content analysis.

Mitigating policy uncertainty: What financial markets reveal about firm‐level lobbying

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Elections can lead to substantial policy changes and, thus, are a significant source of risk. Firms can respond to such policy uncertainty by lobbying, but it is hard to quantify whether they do so and, if so, how much lobbying benefits them. We construct a new dataset and leverage investors’ expectations of variability in stock returns in the

Clinical Features of Cellular Senescence Pathways in Severe Asthma

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
In bronchial biopsies, SASP and p53 pathway enrichment scores are elevated in severe asthma versus non‐severe asthma and healthy controls. SASP enrichment is validated in the independent NOVA cohort. SASP enrichment is also elevated in nasal brushings of participants with nasal polyps, independently of asthma status.

Sperm Mitochondrial DNA Copy Number and Nuclear DNA Methylation Across Clinical and Non‐Clinical Preconception Cohorts

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sperm mitochondrial DNA copy number is an emerging marker of male fertility, with elevated mtDNAcn associated with poor semen quality across various populations. Sperm DNA methylation has also been previously demonstrated to be negatively correlated with semen parameters in IVF cohorts.

Serial dependence in time perception requires consistent motor responses, not shared memory alone

open access: yesBritish Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Serial dependence—the bias from recent experience on present response—has been attributed to shared memory representations, yet previous studies yielded contradictory findings about whether consistent motor responses are required. To address this debate in time perception, we tested whether serial dependence emerges when tasks share identical ...
