A Bayesian approach to estimate minute ventilation from heart rate during exercise for assessing environmental exposures of females

Physiological Reports
Estimating minute ventilation (V̇E) is essential for assessing the health impacts of environmental exposures during exercise field‐studies. Predictive equations using heart rate (HR) are commonly used, but overlook exercise intensity domains, and reduced

The “inverted-U” of cognitive effort across speech rates holds for simple but not complex sentence structures

Frontiers in Psychology
Pupil dilation has become a well-established physiological index of cognitive effort. Here we examined the often-cited finding of an inverted U-shaped function of pupil size across the continuum from highly degraded to clear speech.

Direct and Indirect Effects of IQ, Parental Help, Effort, and Mathematics Self-Concept on Mathematics Achievement

Europe's Journal of Psychology, 2012
This study examined the structural relationships among cognitive constructs (intelligence and achievement) and affective constructs (perceived parental help, effort and self-concept). It was proposed that the relationships are not invariant across gender.

A specific role for serotonin in overcoming effort cost

eLife, 2016
Serotonin is implicated in many aspects of behavioral regulation. Theoretical attempts to unify the multiple roles assigned to serotonin proposed that it regulates the impact of costs, such as delay or punishment, on action selection.

Nestedness in forest mammals is dependent on area but not on matrix type and sample size: an analysis on different fragmented landscapes

Brazilian Journal of Biology
Nestedness, the pattern in which the species of a species-poor community are a subset of species-rich communities, can provide information regarding species order of extinction, which is vital knowledge for conservation biology.

Biased Information and Effort [PDF]

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2010
We study the impact of information manipulation by a principal on the agent's effort. In a context of asymmetric information at the principal's advantage, we test experimentally the principal's willingness to bias (overestimate or underestimate) the information she/he gives to her/his agent on her/his ability in order to motivate her/him to exert more ...

Exercises of the short-foot as a method of pes planus treatment

Journal of Education, Health and Sport, 2018
The basic functions of the foot are: shock absorption, taking over the body weight, which determines the correct locomotion. Physiologically, the body weight is based mainly on three points of support: the first and fifth metatarsals bone and in the ...

Best-effort adaptation

Annals of Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence
We study a problem of best-effort adaptation motivated by several applications and considerations, which consists of determining an accurate predictor for a target domain, for which a moderate amount of labeled samples are available, while leveraging information from another domain for which substantially more labeled samples are at one's disposal.
