The Role of Skills and Tasks in Gender Gaps in Latin America

Review of Development Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we explore gender gaps in the labor market in Latin America, incorporating two relevant factors often overlooked: skills and the type of tasks performed at work. The study is based on data from the 2018 Program for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC) for four Latin American countries.

Generation of radially polarized beams in a Nd:YAG laser with self-adaptive overcompensation of the thermal lens.

, 2005
Thermal effects such as lensing and birefringence negatively affect the beam quality and limit the power range of solid-state lasers. Self-adaptive overcompensation of the thermal lens is an answer to this problem.

Dissolution, Reconfiguration and Formation: Decarbonisation Effects on Regional Industrial Interpath Dynamics

Tijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie, EarlyView.
Abstract Decarbonising mature industries is crucial for achieving overall carbon neutrality. This article provides an interpath dynamics perspective on how mature industries' decarbonisation paths affect interconnected industries via three key interpath transformation dynamics: interpath dissolution, reconfiguration and formation.

Brain-to-brain coupling forecasts future joint action outcomes

iScience
Summary: In this study, we investigated whether brain-to-brain coupling patterns could predict performance in a time-estimation task that requires two players to cooperate.

Evidence That Hormesis Represents an “Overcompensation” Response to a Disruption in Homeostasis

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 1999
The hypothesis that growth hormesis represents an overcompensation to a disruption in homeostasis was supported in experiments assessing the effects of the synthetic plant growth inhibitor phosfon (2,4-dichlorobenzyl tributyl phosphonium chloride) on peppermint.

Stage-specific biomass overcompensation by juveniles in response to increased adult mortality in a wild fish population

, 2011
Recently developed theoretical models of stage-structured consumer–resource systems have shown that stage-specific biomass overcompensation can arise in response to increased mortality rates.

Effect of repeated hot water immersion on cognitive performance, cerebrovascular function, sleep and biomarkers of neurodegeneration in older adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing is associated with cognitive decline and increased risk of developing neurodegenerative disease. Repeated passive heating, using hot water immersion (HWI), may improve cognitive performance via improved cerebral oxygenation, but this is yet to be examined in older adults.

Somatosensory processing in long COVID fatigue and its relations with physiological and psychological factors

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We aimed to quantify somatosensory processing in long COVID and interactions between somatosensory processing, fatigability, fatigue, autonomic function, mood and illness beliefs. Eighty‐eight participants (44 long COVID and 44 controls) were invited to complete two testing sessions, where fatigue was induced by either a cognitive or a ...
