Associations between valenced news and affect in daily life: Experimental and ecological momentary assessment approaches

Author(s): Shaikh SJ; McGowan AL; Lydon-Staley DM;

In 203 (mean age = 38.04 years, SD=12.05) participants, we tested the association between valenced news and affect using a 14-day, smartphone-based ecological momentary assessment protocol consisting of two components: 1) a once-per-day experimental protoco ...

The biotic and abiotic contexts of ecological selection mediate the dominance of distinct dispersal strategies in competitive metacommunities

Author(s): Khattar G; Savary P; Peres-Neto PR;

While the influence of dispersal on ecological selection is the subject of intense research, we still lack a thorough understanding of how ecological selection operates to favour distinct dispersal strategies in metacommunities. To address this issue, we de ...

The impact of directed choice on the design of preventive healthcare facility network under congestion

Author(s): Vidyarthi N; Kuzgunkaya O;

Preventive healthcare (PH) programs and services aim at reducing the likelihood and severity of potentially life-threatening illness by early detection and prevention. The effectiveness of these programs depends on the participation level and the accessibil ...

Spatial versus spatio-temporal approaches for studying metacommunities: a multi-taxon analysis in Mediterranean and tropical temporary ponds

Author(s): Gálvez Á; Peres-Neto PR; Castillo-Escrivà A; Bonilla F; Camacho A; García-Roger EM; Iepure S; Miralles J; Monrós JS; Olmo C; Picazo A; Rojo ...

Prior research on metacommunities has largely focused on snapshot surveys, often overlooking temporal dynamics. In this study, our aim was to compare the insights obtained from metacommunity analys ...

Unsupervised Mixture Models on the Edge for Smart Energy Consumption Segmentation with Feature Saliency

Author(s): Al-Bazzaz H; Azam M; Amayri M; Bouguila N;

Smart meter datasets have recently transitioned from monthly intervals to one-second granularity, yielding invaluable insights for diverse metering functions. Clustering analysis, a fundamental data mining technique, is extensively applied to discern unique ...

Mismatch between calf paternity and observed copulations between male and female reindeer: Multiple mating in a polygynous ungulate?

Author(s): Coombs KR; Weladji RB; Holand Ø; Røed KH;

In polygynous systems, such as that exhibited by reindeer Rangifer tarandus, mate choice can be difficult to disentangle from male intrasexual competition because male behavior may constrain female choice. Multiple mating may provide an avenue for female ma ...

Call to action: equity, diversity, and inclusion in emergency medicine resident physician selection

Author(s): Primavesi R; Patocka C; Burcheri A; Coutin A; Elhalwi AM; Ali A; Pandya A; Gagné A; Johnston B; Thoma B; LeBlanc C; Fovet F; Gallinger J; Mo ...

Objectives: This call to action seeks to improve emergency care in Canada for equity-deserving communities, enabled by equitable representation among emergency physicians nationally. Specifically, ...

How well do covariates perform when adjusting for sampling bias in online COVID-19 research? Insights from multiverse analyses

Author(s): Joyal-Desmarais K; Stojanovic J; Kennedy EB; Enticott JC; Boucher VG; Vo H; Košir U; Lavoie KL; Bacon SL; ...

COVID-19 research has relied heavily on convenience-based samples, which-though often necessary-are susceptible to important sampling biases. We begin with a theoretical overview and introduction t ...

Inconsistent response of taxonomic groups to space and environment in mediterranean and tropical pond metacommunities

Author(s): Gálvez Á; Peres-Neto PR; Castillo-Escrivà A; Bonilla F; Camacho A; García-Roger EM; Iepure S; Miralles-Lorenzo J; Monrós JS; Olmo C; Picazo ...

The metacommunity concept provides a theoretical framework that aims at explaining organism distributions by a combination of environmental filtering, dispersal, and drift. However, few works have ...

Changes in selection pressure can facilitate hybridization during biological invasion in a Cuban lizard

Author(s): Bock DG; Baeckens S; Pita-Aquino JN; Chejanovski ZA; Michaelides SN; Muralidhar P; Lapiedra O; Park S; Menke DB; Geneva AJ; Losos JB; Kolbe ...

Hybridization is among the evolutionary mechanisms most frequently hypothesized to drive the success of invasive species, in part because hybrids are common in invasive populations. One explanation ...
