Iconicity and Absolute Frequency
, 2022 Several factors predict the likelihood of replacement of a resident word by a new invading form. One factor is absolute frequency—that is, the frequency with which the forms in question occur.

Enhancing Small Molecule Sensing With Aptameric Functionalized Nano Devices
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Unveiling an ultra‐sensitive, non‐invasive neurotransmitter sensor. For the first time, a nanoscale sensor for detecting an important neurotransmitter was demonstrated using micro‐electromechanical systems (MEMS) technology. Our approach utilized field‐effect transistor (FET)‐based readout to enable pico‐molar detection of biomarkers in sweat.

Replicating the Effects of Iconicity in Lexical Decision Task
Cadernos de LinguísticaIconic words are characterized by a sense of resemblance between their form and their meaning. The most common examples are onomatopoeias such as “cock-a-doodle-doo” or “woof-woof,” but recent research shows that speakers of various languages perceive a

Understanding Interfacial Photoswitching Mechanisms in Atomically‐Thin TMD‐Spiropyran Hybrids
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Photochromic molecules can effectively modulate the optoelectronic properties of atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenide semiconductors. Spiropyran that switches its chemical configuration upon alternating UV and visible irradiation enables light‐programmable optoelectronic devices.

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A soft robotic simulator is developed to replicate the digital removal of feces (DRF), a sensitive yet essential nursing procedure. Integrating soft actuators, sensors, and a realistic rectal model, the simulator balances functional fidelity with perceptual realism. Engineering evaluations and nurse feedback confirm its potential to enhance training in

Labelling and iconicity facilitate visual categorisation and discrimination
Language and CognitionWe investigated how the presence of linguistic labels, their iconicity and mode of presentation (cued vs not cued) affect non-linguistic cognitive processing, focussing on the learning and visual discrimination of new categories.

Effects of concept abstractness and visualization iconicity on Bayesian inference
, 2023 Bayesian reasoning may be improved by visualizations such as icon arrays (Cui et al., 2023). An open question is whether the iconicity, as opposed to abstractness, of a visualization aids in solving Bayesian problems. While a number of studies have found
