Personality distance and economic activity
Studia Oeconomica Posnaniensia, 2014 Building on the similarity-attraction hypothesis I examine whether differences in the personalities of inhabitants from interacting countries affect the level of economic activity between them. To do this I investigate whether both aggregated and nonaggregated differences in personality scores of average inhabitants from two countries have the ...

Coordinated Architectural and Chemical Reinforcement in the Crushing Mandible of a Soldier Termite
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The crushing mandible of a soldier termite withstands substantial biting loads despite lacking mineral. Its cuticle is partitioned: convex teeth pair hardness and zinc enrichment with aligned chitin fibers for contact durability, while stiffer concave regions between teeth carry bending loads.
