Aging and the Division of Labor of Theory of Mind Skills in Metaphor Comprehension

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract While some aspects of pragmatic competence are known to decline with age, for metaphor skills the evidence is inconclusive, possibly due to heterogeneity in the assessment tools. Furthermore, the previous literature on age‐related changes in pragmatic skills has rarely considered the role of Theory of Mind (ToM), which is described as one of ...

Living in the Mycelial World

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This manuscript documents a systematic ethnomycological analysis of ethnographic archives. Focusing on texts describing human–fungi interactions, I conduct a global, cross‐cultural review of mushroom use, covering 193 societies worldwide. The study reveals diverse mushroom‐related cultural practices, emphasizing the significance of fungi ...

Historical Climate and Biome Association Drove Phylogeographic Patterns in the Dwarf Swamp Frog (Anura: Leptodactylidae)

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT South America, a region with high biodiversity, has been profoundly shaped by geological events during the Miocene and Pliocene, as well as by climatic changes in the Pleistocene, leading to complex phylogeographic patterns. The diverse biomes and the biotic exchanges between them, particularly between the Amazon and the Cerrado, have ...

Telecological Collapse: The Inevitability of Climate Breakdown in the Transmedial Podcast Drama Forest 404

Despite the drama's eco‐dystopian critique of teleological ‘progress’ narratives (that enable and perpetuate the destruction of the natural world), I argue that the series ultimately propagates a sense of inevitability
