The Development of Indo‐Iranian Voiced Fricatives
Abstract The development of voiced sibilants is a long‐standing puzzle in Indo‐Iranian historical phonology. In Vedic, all voiced sibilants are lost from the system, but the details of this loss are complex and subject to debate. The most intriguing development concerns the word‐final ‐aḥ to ‐o in sandhi.

Social voice judgement is dyadic: Acoustic typicality and interpersonal similarity interact
Abstract The formation of social first impressions from voices is a central component of everyday social interactions. While past research has primarily investigated the effect of bottom‐up voice acoustic on social voice judgements, here we widen the perspective and investigate how bottom‐up acoustic and top‐down interpersonal similarity interactively ...

ABSTRACT In cognitive psychology, longer intersession intervals are thought to enhance long‐term retention (i.e., lag effects). Recently, scholars have begun to test the generalizability of the lag effect to L2 vocabulary and grammar acquisition. Following their step, the present study not only replicated the lag effect but also provided a more fine ...

Long‐term stability of sinus complication management
Abstract Maxillary sinus augmentation shows a low incidence of complications and high clinical success due to favorable biological conditions and typically transient issues. Most complications are intraoperative, such as Schneiderian membrane perforation or hemorrhage, and are often resolved immediately.
