Consumer Grade Wearable Sensor Metrics Are Associated with Internal Forces at Common Running Injury Locations

INTRODUCTION: Inexpensive consumer-grade wearable sensors have expanded possibilities to assess, monitor, or modify a runner's gait. However, it is unclear which sensor-measured gait metrics are strongly associated with internal loading at common injury locations. PURPOSE: To mea...

Developmental photoperiod alters the onset and capacity for reproduction in male dark-eyed juncos ( Junco hyemalis )

Natural selection favours individuals able to physiologically adjust to seasonal environmental cues, such as photoperiod, and time their reproduction accordingly. Although it is known that differences along the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis can explain differences in...

German Vowel Contrast Discrimination by Turkish–German Bilingual Preschool Children: Effects of Age, Language Status, and Type of Bilingualism

Although bilingual vowel perception has received great interest in the past, surprisingly few studies have focused on preschool children. To shed light on this understudied age group, the present study investigated 5- to 7-year-old Turkish–German bilingual children ( n = 24), age...

Older adult memory for moral transgressions: retrieval goals and social connectedness

Objectives When evaluating immoral behaviors, older adults focus less on fictional agent’s intentions than outcomes. It is unclear whether this behavior is driven by age-related cognitive decline or motivational shifts. We used a novel paradigm to determine whether older adults c...

Ecolinguistics in the United States

Abstract This article presents the personal narratives of five United States-based ecolinguists along with a discussion of contemporary ecolinguistics and possibilities for continued growth. The narratives illustrate the rich interdisciplinary diversity of the expanding field, as...

Crossing the Line: Measuring Sexual Exploitation Across Advocacy and Sex Research Traditions

Where is the line between permissible sexual seduction and sexual exploitation? This commentary argues that the answer cannot be settled by global labels such as unwanted sex, nonconsensual sex, rape, or abuse. Drawing on a collaboration between researchers working in violence-ag...

BR-bodies link RNA homeostasis to stress tolerance and intracellular fitness in Brucella

ABSTRACT Bacterial gene expression depends on the coordinated regulation of RNA synthesis, processing, and decay. The conserved RNA degradosome scaffold, ribonuclease E (RNase E), assembles into phase-separated bacterial ribonucleoprotein bodies (BR-bodies) through its C-terminal...

Further Redefining Motivation with Situated Cognition, Power, and Belonging

Abstract This article contributes to a growing convergence across educational psychology, the learning sciences, and culturally responsive education by further redefining motivation as an interactional and socially situated phenomenon. We review and extend ongoing efforts to chal...

Test–Retest Reliability of Core Lexicon Analysis

Purpose: We examined the test-retest reliability of core lexicon analysis for healthy control participants (HCP) and individuals with aphasia (IWA) to facilitate research and clinical implementation of discourse analysis.Methods: Transcripts from 50 HCP and 61 IWA [from the Aphas...

Legal Chameleons: Political Ideology, Institutional Histories, and Firms’ Management of Identity Cues

This study examines how foreign firms strategically manage the salience of foreignness when facing unfavorable domestic evaluators. Foreign firms do so by altering the ethnic composition of the agents representing them before the evaluators. We examine this question in the contex...

Performing Neurotypicality: A Concept Explication of Autistic Masking as Strategic Identity Communication

Autistic masking, defined as the suppression of natural behaviors and performance of neurotypical communication patterns, is increasingly recognized as prevalent and psychologically costly. However, research reflects diverse terminological and theoretical approaches, as well as v...

How ventures maintain stakeholder support amidst operational legitimacy threats

Abstract Research Summary We explore how ventures mitigate operational legitimacy threats— threats that originate within the venture and challenge claims relating to the venture's ability to deliver on its promised value proposition . Through an inductive study of four ventures w...

Modelling plant disease spread via high-resolution human mobility networks

Abstract Human mobility plays a crucial role in the spread of human diseases but is rarely quantified in plant disease epidemics. To address this gap, we integrate a unique, high-resolution network of human movements in New Zealand with a metapopulation model to mechanistically s...

Normative clinical language data and task specific effects

Language production in clinical populations varies by both neurological condition and discourse task. This study analyzes connected speech from 1394 individuals with left or right hemisphere damage, Traumatic Brain Injury, Mild Cognitive Impairment, dementia, or no neurological d...

Associations Between Physical Activity Measurement Modality and Gut Microbiome in Breast Cancer Survivors

Background/Objectives: Physical activity (PA), physiological fitness, and the gut microbiome have each been linked to health outcomes among breast cancer survivors (BCS); however, these associations have been inconsistent. Few studies have directly compared the associations of se...

Efficient septum formation is essential for chromosome segregation in Bacillus subtilis when SMC function is impaired

ABSTRACT Structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) complexes play conserved roles in chromosome organization, segregation, and repair in all domains of life. In Bacillus subtilis , SMC is required for the segregation of newly replicated origins. To investigate whether other pro...

SPIRIT-CONSORT-ELM: element-level annotated dataset and large language model approach for assessing randomized controlled trial reporting

Abstract Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are central to assessing the benefits and harms of interventions, but incomplete reporting undermines their verifiability and usefulness. Although SPIRIT and CONSORT reporting guidelines promote complete reporting of RCT protocols and...

Invertible fusion categories

Abstract A tensor category $$\mathcal C$$ C over a field $$\mathbb K$$ K is said to be invertible if there’s a tensor category $$\mathcal D$$ D such that $$\mathcal C \boxtimes \mathcal D$$ C ⊠ D is Morita equivalent to $$\textrm{Vec}_{\mathbb K}$$ Vec K . When $$\mathbb K$$ K is...

Cell type-specific rearrangement of perisomatic inhibition in the valproate mouse model of autism

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) involves disrupted excitatory/inhibitory balance in brain circuits, with interneuron dysfunction implicated across cortical networks. Perisomatic inhibition by parvalbumin-containing (PV) and cholecystokinin-expressing (CCK) basket cells critically...

A conserved archaeal protein with evolutionary links to bacterial ribosome hibernation and eukaryotic energy sensing

Ribosome hibernation helps cells survive stress by reversibly silencing translation and preserving ribosomal complexes. Although well characterized in bacteria and eukaryotes, archaeal hibernation remains poorly understood. Using cryoEM of archaeal lysates, we identified AHA (AMP...
