Transcriptional regulation of neuropeptide receptors underlies context‐dependent adaptation in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 1, Page 90-115, January 2026.
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

open access: yesJournal of Educational Measurement, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 588-607, Winter 2025.
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.

Low mood, worry and mind wandering in children

open access: yesBritish Journal of Developmental Psychology, Volume 43, Issue 4, Page 889-907, November 2025.
Abstract Previous research with adults and adolescents has established that mind wandering—characterized by a shift in attention from external tasks to internal thoughts—is associated with negative affect and reduced psychological well‐being, particularly when focused on past events.

Replication unreliability in psychology: elusive phenomena or elusive statistical power?

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2012
The focus of this paper is to analyse whether the unreliability of results related to certain controversial psychological phenomena may be a consequence of their low statistical power.Applying the Null Hypothesis Statistical Testing (NHST), still the ...

Quantifying the Effect of Catchment Snow Cover on Stream Temperature Dynamics in a Mountainous Region

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 39, Issue 9, September 2025.
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

open access: yesTeaching Statistics, Volume 47, Issue 3, Page 219-234, Autumn (Fall) 2025.
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 ...

Establishing a Statistical Framework for Assessing Paleomagnetic Data Quality: A Significance Test Based on Maximum Angular Deviation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 6, June 2025.
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.

Reducing our dependence on null hypothesis testing: A key to enhance the reproducibility and credibility of our science

open access: yesSA Journal of Industrial Psychology, 2019
Problemification: Over-reliance on null hypothesis significance testing (NHST) is one of the most important causes of the emerging crisis over the credibility and reproducibility of our science.
