Confidence intervals for extinction risk: Validating population viability analysis with limited data

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract The assessment of extinction risk remains a key component of IUCN and CITES evaluations. However, it has been argued that, under realistic data limitations, confidence intervals (CIs) for extinction probability often span the entire 0–1 range, rendering such assessments meaningless.

Examining associations between foundational and complex mathematics skills in people with Down syndrome and typically developing children

open access: yesBritish Journal of Developmental Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Acquiring mathematical competence is essential to independent living. In this study, we investigated the mathematics profile in young people with Down syndrome (DS), and the relations between foundational and more complex mathematics skills.

Beyond performance: Emotions before and after semi‐high‐stakes mathematics testing among school‐aged students

open access: yesBritish Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Previous research has shown that testing differs significantly from other classroom activities and is associated with heightened negative emotions and lower levels of positive emotions. However, relatively little is known about students' emotions surrounding testing, particularly in higher‐stakes assessment settings. Aims This study

Mathematics anxiety: Effects of age, gender and culture

open access: yesBritish Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Many studies have indicated that mathematics anxiety is a significant problem for many people and is an important topic for research. Mathematics anxiety is multidimensional. In particular, it is important to distinguish between worry and emotionality components, and between trait and state anxiety.

Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.
