Epilepsy: Epidemiology, Molecular Pathogenesis, and Clinical Management

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2026.
Epilepsy is a heterogeneous and chronically evolving brain network disorder. This review integrates epidemiological burden, psychiatric comorbidities, and cyclic seizure patterns with multiscale pathogenic mechanisms, including ion‐channel dysfunction, synaptic transmission defects, neuroinflammation, metabolic and mitochondrial dysfunction, and ...

Reform of the evidential rules for eyewitness identification in the United States – advice from the antipodes

open access: yes, 2020
The Federal Rules of Evidence (FRE) in the United States comprise a number of short provisions that are set out in plain language and are largely free of technical terms.

Addressing Biases in Ice Jam Observations by Integrating Multi‐Source Data in a Forested Fluvial Landscape, Southern Quebec

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 1188-1208, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Exhaustive long‐term and large‐scale ice jam records are scarce in most cold river environments. Many discrete events occur in small, sparsely populated river systems and are poorly represented in open‐source databases. These observation biases are transferred to predictive models of ice jams and the collective understanding of their formation

Creating fair lineups for suspects with distinctive features [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In their descriptions, eyewitnesses often refer to a culprit's distinctive facial features. However, in a police lineup, selecting the only member with the described distinctive feature is unfair to the suspect and provides the police with little further

Postmortem submergence interval (PMSI) and human decomposition in anthropogenically constructed aqueous environments (pools, bathtubs, hot tubs, and spas)

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, Volume 71, Issue 4, Page 1718-1734, July 2026.
Abstract Postmortem decomposition changes of bodies in aquatic environments may offer valuable insights into the postmortem submergence interval (PMSI) for medicolegal death investigators. However, the effects of immersion on the onset of such changes are poorly understood.

Parity and the Permissivism Puzzle: A Defense of Epistemic Options

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, Volume 113, Issue 1, Page 233-247, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Moral philosophers generally affirm that there are moral options: a single person sometimes has multiple morally permissible actions at a time. But epistemologists generally deny that there are epistemic options: a single person never has multiple epistemically permissible doxastic attitudes at a time. This asymmetry is striking.

Reactivation Mechanism of Dormant Earthflows: Insights From the San Benedetto Landslide (Northern Apennines, Italy)

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Earthflows are landslides in fine‐grained materials that alternate long dormant phases of very slow movement with short paroxysmal stages of rapid motion. These rapid phases are highly destructive, often causing severe damage to buildings and infrastructure.

Fast, Sure, and Right? Response Time and Confidence as Predictors of Accuracy Across Filler Selection Strategies and Culprit–Innocent Suspect Similarity

open access: yesApplied Cognitive Psychology, Volume 40, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Increasing filler similarity to a suspect—beyond description matching—can improve lineup discriminability. We investigated the effects of suspect‐filler similarity on reflector variable‐accuracy calibrations across different levels of innocent suspect resemblance to the culprit. Match‐to‐description‐only lineups and description‐matched lineups

The Timing of Expert Testimony on Juror Assessments of Eyewitness Reliability

open access: yesApplied Cognitive Psychology, Volume 40, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT The average juror is unaware of the factors that affect eyewitness reliability. When experts educate jurors, they usually testify after an eyewitness has incriminated the defendant. We hypothesized that early presentation of expert testimony would improve juror sensitivity to eyewitness reliability.

The Interactional Pathways of Mass Killings: Toward a Novel Understanding of Rampage School Shootings

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 253-282, May 2026.
Rampage school shootings, where students go to their own school to randomly kill classmates, teachers, friends, and strangers, are among the most drastic types of human behavior. While research increasingly points to interaction dynamics as being key for the emergence of crime and violence, scholars have not yet systematically studied interaction ...
