Under environmental changes, the expression level of neuropeptide (NP) and neuropeptide receptor (NPR) genes changes to confer context‐dependent adaptation to the model organism Drosophila melanogaster. Through finding more regulatory elements in the NPR genes in comparison with their ligands (NPs), we found that NPR‐biased transcriptional regulation ...

Comparing Data‐Driven Methods for Removing Options in Assessment Items
Abstract Test items with problematic options often require revision to improve their psychometric properties. When an option is identified as ambiguous or nonfunctioning, the traditional approach involves removing the option and conducting another field test to gather new response data—a process that, while effective, is resource‐intensive.

Catchment‐scale fractional snow cover derived from MODIS products was a significant predictor in empirical models to predict daily stream temperature for May, June, September and October, especially for catchments greater than 10 km2. Inclusion of mean June snow cover as a predictor in models for July to October indicated that the cooling effect of ...

Uncovering key statistical concepts from an investigation of four standardized tests
Abstract To this date, few standardized tests measuring students' performance with regards to statistics exist. Only four tests have been proposed for college or university students. The goal of the present study is to investigate these tests. University professors or instructors experienced in teaching statistics were asked to list the concepts they ...

Abstract Paleomagnetic data underpin our understanding of Earth's ancient magnetic field and are essential to paleogeographic reconstructions. At the specimen level, paleomagnetic analysis relies upon stepwise demagnetization to enable isolation and quantification of magnetic remanence components in geological materials.
