Deciding What to Believe or Deciding What to Do? An Empirical Investigation of the Folk Conception of Critical Thinking

open access: yesTheoria, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how the expression ‘critical thinking’ (CT) is understood and used by the general public in the United States, using the tools of experimental philosophy. Based on responses from 288 non‐philosopher participants, our findings suggest that CT is commonly associated with problem solving, decision making and logical ...

Independent Effects of Age, Education, Verbal Working Memory, Motor Speed of Processing, Locality, and Morphosyntactic Category on Verb‐Related Morphosyntactic Production: Evidence From Healthy Aging

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the role of locality (a task/material‐related variable), demographic factors (age, education, and sex), cognitive capacities (verbal working memory [WM], verbal short‐term memory [STM], speed of processing [SOP], and inhibition), and morphosyntactic category (time reference and grammatical aspect) in verb‐related ...

“Is This Edible Anyway?” The Impact of Culture on the Evolution (and Devolution) of Mushroom Knowledge

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Mushrooms are a ubiquitous and essential component in our biological environment and have been of interest to humans around the globe for millennia. Knowledge about mushrooms represents a prime example of cumulative culture, one of the key processes in human evolution.

The Cultural Evolution of Human Goals

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Humans pursue remarkably diverse goals that vary over time and across cultures. These goals are both drivers and products of cultural evolutionary dynamics, yet most theories of cultural evolution have focused on the influence of culture on how individuals reach their goals, rather than on which goals they pursue.

The Single, the Whole, and the Pooled: Implications of Tissue Choice for Stable Isotope Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 9, Page 933-939, November 2026.
ABSTRACT In the exciting era of non‐invasive tissue sampling and data reuse via open access databases, it is increasingly challenging to ensure comparability of sample types for stable isotope analysis in ecology. According to the theoretical predictions about the changes in the stable isotope values between prey and consumers and tissue turnover rates,
