Effects of Mothers’ Childhood Nature Experiences on Young Children’s Connectedness to Nature: The Mediating Role of Mothers’ Nature Connectedness Self-Efficacy

Korean Journal of Child Studies, 2022
Objectives: In this study, we aimed to examine the structural relationships among mothers’ childhood nature experiences, their nature-connectedness self-efficacy, and young children’s connectedness to nature. We also aimed to explore the mediating effects of mothers’ nature-connectedness self-efficacy on their childhood nature experiences and young ...

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

The Relationship Between Connectedness to Nature, Environmental Values, and Pro-environmental Behaviours [PDF]

, 2015
The aims of this study were to investigate (a) the relationship between connectedness to nature and pro-environmental behaviours; (b) the relationship between environmental values and behaviours; and (c) whether or not there is a mediating effect of ...

Actively Noticing Nature (Not Just Time in Nature) Helps Promote Nature Connectedness

Ecopsychology, 2022
The climate and biodiversity crises reveal a failing human–nature relationship. The psychological construct of nature connectedness provides a means for understanding and improving that relationshi...

The role and implications of mammalian cellular circadian entrainment

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
At their most fundamental level, mammalian circadian rhythms occur inside every individual cell. To tell the correct time, cells must align (or ‘entrain’) their circadian rhythm to the external environment. In this review, we highlight how cells entrain to the major circadian cues of light, feeding and temperature, and the implications this has for our

Real‐time assay of ribonucleotide reductase activity with a fluorescent RNA aptamer

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ribonucleotide reductases (RNR) synthesize DNA building blocks de novo, making them crucial in DNA replication and drug targeting. FLARE introduces the first single‐tube real‐time coupled RNR assay, which enables isothermal tracking of RNR activity at nanomolar enzyme levels and allows the reconstruction of allosteric regulatory patterns and rapid ...

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...
