Investigating Feedback-Informed Screen-Guided Training to Enhance Myoelectric Control and Predictability

IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering
Screen-guided training is a widely used method for calibrating myoelectric prostheses, wherein users follow visual prompts. However, this approach often fails to capture the complexities of real-world usage when the user is actively engaging with the ...

Jaw and head movement adjustments during jaw function—Comparisons between and within 13‐year‐olds and adults

European Journal of Oral Sciences, Volume 133, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Jaw–head movement coordination develops during adolescence. However, functional adjustments during this period remain poorly understood. This study aimed to characterize jaw and head movement adjustments in early adolescents and compare this to adults. Three‐dimensional optical cameras captured jaw and head movements during maximum jaw opening–

Comparison of Interlimb Coordination During Soccer Instep Kicking Between Elite and Amateur Players

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 25, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how interlimb joint coordination influences foot speed during soccer instep kicking, using continuous relative phase (CRP) as a quantitative method. The sample includes 15 elite and 15 amateur players to examine potential differences in coordination patterns and their impact on performance.

History Roundtable on US Universities and the State: Episodes from the Twentieth Century

History, Volume 110, Issue 392, Page 546-559, September 2025.
Abstract This roundtable explores four historical episodes in the history of state–university relations in the United States. In doing so, it addresses issues that also figure prominently in present‐day debates, including questions of academic freedom and free speech, the state's role in research funding as well as the international features of higher ...

Linking Individual Performance to Density‐Dependent Population Dynamics to Understand Temperature‐Mediated Genotype Coexistence

Ecology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 9, September 2025.
We use a demographic model to explicitly connect individual performance to population‐level dynamics, parameterised using experimental data on competing Daphnia genotypes from two latitudes. We show that higher temperatures increase the likelihood of competitive exclusion of Northern genotypes by Southern genotypes, and highlight neonate sex ratios as ...

Effect of Instructions Emphasizing Velocity or Accuracy Given in a Random or Blocked Order on Performance Testing and Kinematics in Dart Throwing

Frontiers in Psychology, 2019
The aims of this study were to investigate the effects of throwing instruction (i.e., velocity and accuracy) and testing order (random or blocked) on dart throwing performance testing and on the movement strategies leading to this performance.

GM Crops and the Jevons Paradox: Induced Innovation, Systemic Effects and Net Pesticide Increases From Pesticide‐Decreasing Crops

Journal of Agrarian Change, Volume 25, Issue 3, July 2025.
ABSTRACT The Jevons paradox describes how increased efficiency in the use of a resource can paradoxically increase rather than reduce its overall consumption. In agricultural systems, efficiency is confounded by a broad range of economic, ecological, social and evolutionary factors. Agriculture is a particularly elastic kind of production: Efficiencies

Temporal Dynamics With and Without a Nervous System: Plant Physiology, Communication, and Movement

Cognitive Science, Volume 49, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract The concept of time has long been the subject of complex philosophical reflections and scientific research, which have interpreted it differently based on the starting question, context, and level of analysis of the system under investigation.

A Study of Model Iterations of Fitts’ Law and Its Application to Human–Computer Interactions

Applied Sciences
Fitts’ law, a predictive model for motor task completion time, is widely utilized in human–computer interaction (HCI) research. While its formulas in two dimensions have achieved consensus over the decades, research diverges on its application in three ...

Can Hick's law and Fitts' law be combined?

Acta Psychologica, 1972
Abstract An attempt was made to combine the two information-theory based laws relating speed and accuracy, Hick's law and Fitts' law, in a task where subjects were asked to repetitively aim at randomly indicated alternative targets from a home position. Fitts' law was not obeyed, so the proposed fusion was not possible.
