Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract It has been argued that fungi have cognitive capacities, and even conscious experiences. While these arguments risk ushering in unproductive disputes about how words like “mind,” “cognitive,” “sentient,” and “conscious” should be used, paying close attention to key properties of fungal life can also be uncontroversially productive for ...

Seeing Through an Ant's Eyes: Do Entomopathogenic Fungi Extend Their Cognition to Their Hosts?

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Post‐cognitivist approaches recognize cognition as a phenomenon that involves not just brains but all the sensorimotor apparatus of organisms. This means that brains are not always required for the emergence of cognition and that every organism can, in principle, be cognitive, unlocking a theoretical framework to explain the complex adaptive ...

The impact of culture fusion in the context of immigration: The crucial role of cultural contamination and threat

Asian Journal of Social Psychology, Volume 29, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Culture fusion, defined as the blending of two cultural representations, can promote negative reactions based on perceived contamination of and symbolic threat to the heritage culture. In three experiments, we examined the possibility that such negative reactions to culture fusion may be responsible for exclusionary attitudes toward immigrants.

Can the Philosopher Change the World? The Enduring Relevance of Anticolonial Marxism in an Era of Decoloniality

Antipode, Volume 58, Issue 2, 2026.
Abstract Decolonial theory (DT) has been advanced as a strategy for decolonisation alternative to 20th‐century anticolonialism, positioning decolonisation as an epistemic project rather than a historical‐material one. Here, I examine DT's arguments about anticolonialism: that it had a dogmatic bias towards nationalism and postcolonial state formation ...

Sex‐Specific Control and Incomplete Matings: Sperm Removal Behavior in a Bush Cricket Species

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 3, Page 194-203, March 2026.
In this study, we investigated which sex influences the duration of sperm removal behaviour (SRB) in the ornate bush cricket, Metaplastes ornatus. Female traits showed a weak effect on SRB duration, and lighter females mated more frequently. Frequent unsuccessful mating terminations shortened SRB indicating high level of sexual conflict.
