No Evidence for Curiosity‐Driven Information Selection Advantage in Infants’ Novel Word Learning

open access: yesDevelopmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The cognitive mechanisms and benefits of active learning in early child development are poorly understood. The current study investigated 20–23‐month‐old infants’ curiosity‐driven information selection in a novel word learning task, designed to identify any potential advantage for active learning over passive learning. In a gaze‐contingent eye‐

Developing Associations to the Sounds of a Name

open access: yesDevelopmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Sound symbolism refers to associations between language sounds and certain perceptual or semantic properties. One well‐studied example is the maluma/takete effect, in which individuals tend to associate round‐sounding nonwords like maluma with round shapes, and spiky‐sounding nonwords like takete with spiky shapes.

Aspect perception and rule‐following in Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations

open access: yesPhilosophical Investigations, Volume 49, Issue 1, Page 74-96, January 2026.
Abstract This paper aims to highlight a distinctive, projective, mode of aspect perception within Wittgenstein's philosophy that has gone underappreciated in the scholarly literature. Although it bears a family resemblance to other instances of the phenomenon Wittgenstein describes as ‘noticing an aspect’ in PI Part II §113, it is distinctive in that ...

A community‐driven vision for a new knowledge resource for AI

open access: yesAI Magazine, Volume 46, Issue 4, Winter 2025.
Abstract The long‐standing goal of creating a comprehensive, multi‐purpose knowledge resource, reminiscent of the 1984 Cyc project, still persists in AI. Despite the success of knowledge resources like WordNet, ConceptNet, Wolfram|Alpha and other commercial knowledge graphs, verifiable, general‐purpose, widely available sources of knowledge remain a ...

Second Harmonic Characteristics of Large‐Area ALD‐Grown MoS2 Monolayers and MoS2/WS2 Heterostructures with Sub‐Millimeter Crystalline Orientation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 12, Issue 23, December 8, 2025.
It is demonstrated that ALD‐grown MoS2 monolayers exhibit exceptional crystal orientation uniformity across large areas. SHG microscopy reveals that this orientation is preserved in MoS2/WS2 heterostructures, with the SHG response dominated by MoS2. Structural and optical analyzes suggest limited but possible interfacial ordering of the polycrystalline

Anthropometric Measurements Amongst Contemporary Deceased Adults From New Mexico Vary in Relation to Childhood Socioeconomic Status

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 188, Issue 4, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Objectives Energetic deficits through lack of access to resources and/or increased exposure to stressors are associated with the disadvantaged biocultural environments often afforded to individuals with lower socioeconomic status (SES). We use anthropometric and demographic data collected from 224 adult (aged 20–50 years) individuals whose ...

Reality Check on Formal Methods in Industry: A Study of Verum Dezyne

open access: yesJournal of Software: Evolution and Process, Volume 37, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Many of the classical questions reflecting the actionable use of formal methods in the software industry—“do they scale?” or “are they easily integrated?”—remain without a definitive answer, with many potentially adoptable formal notations being exploited in industry, but in a rather stove‐piped and siloed fashion, and with rather few ...

Nomenclature and typification of sectional names in Carex (Cyperaceae)

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 74, Issue 6, Page 1543-1568, December 2025.
Abstract This paper presents an updated survey of all the published names at the section rank in Carex and its formerly accepted satellite genera. We included related names at other ranks when relevant. We address validity, legitimacy, priority, typification, and – if relevant – synonymy.

Personal Investment in Language Processing: The Role of Self‐Reference in Initial Lexical Acquisition

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, Volume 59, Issue S2, Page S60-S87, December 2025.
Abstract Recent research on learner factors in task‐based language teaching (TBLT) has demonstrated positive effects for treatments that draw on learners' personal experiences. However, the specific processes responsible for these effects are not well understood.
