Continual decision‐making dynamics across biological organisms

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Decision‐making is a central function of adaptive behaviour in biological agents. However, strategies for adaptive decision‐making can vary substantially across species. Here, we aim to extend the comparative scope of decision‐making analyses to phylogenetically diverse organisms.

The myth of the metabolic baseline: sleep–wake cycles undermine a foundational assumption in organismal biology

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Basal and standard metabolic rate (BMR and SMR) are cornerstones of physiological ecology and are assumed to be relatively fixed intrinsic properties of organisms that represent the minimum energy required to sustain life. However, this assumption is conceptually flawed. Many core maintenance processes underlying SMR are temporally partitioned

Exploring the Role of Prospect Theory for Fast‐Fashion Practice as Experienced Through a Generational Lens: Marketing an Environmental Business Strategy That Appeals to Fashion Identity and Time Horizon Values

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The financially lucrative fast‐fashion business strategy is criticised for impacting detrimentally on the environment, with marketing tactics encouraging frequent‐impulsive fashion consumption. This research presents a novel conceptual framework merging fashion involvement values within prospect theory, creating a fashion‐identity‐time‐horizon
