Scandinavian Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Identifying the drivers of chronic stress is crucial for understanding its impact on mental health. Latent toxoplasmosis, a widespread parasitic infection, has been linked to various psychological changes. The Stress‐Coping Hypothesis proposes that at least some of these changes are consequences of chronic stress arising from the infection's ...

When tradition burns: Misinterpreting prescribed fire across the science–society gap in Iberia

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.
Prescribed fire is a scientifically grounded management tool whose benefits depend on specific ecological and operational conditions. This Perspective examines how these benefits may be reinterpreted beyond their original context and proposes a framework to improve the translation of ecological knowledge into environmental decision‐making.

Countdown to extinction: Role of invasive wild boars in the population dynamics of the Yelkouan shearwater (Puffinus yelkouan) on Port‐Cros Island

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.
Wild boars that have recently arrived in Port‐Cros National Park are reducing the reproductive success of Yelkouan shearwaters by destroying nests and predating on eggs and chicks. In the absence of measures to control the wild boar population, this would likely accelerate the decline of the Yelkouan shearwater population.

A Tale of Tail Loss: Fine‐Scale Landscape Composition Predicts Caudal Autotomy Along an Urban Gradient in Two Congeneric Lizards

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Human‐modified landscapes can alter predator–prey interactions, but the spatial scale at which landscape features influence these interactions remains unclear. We examined variation in tail autotomy, a proxy for predation pressure, in two synanthropic lizards across urban gradients.
