Kaňková Š, Hlaváčová J, Roberts K, Benešová J, Havlíček J, Calda P, Dlouhá D & Roberts SC (2023) Associations between nausea and vomiting in pregnancy, disgust sensitivity, and first-trimester maternal serum free β-hCG and PAPP-A. Hormones and Behavior, 152, Art. No.: 105360. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.yhbeh.2023.105360 See

Elevated levels of nausea and vomiting in pregnancy (NVP) and disgust sensitivity have been observed in the first trimester and both are thought to have a protective function for the mother and her fetus. Their aetiology is not clear, however, with previous studies attributing elevated NVP and disgust to various factors including endocrine changes, immunological changes, and psychological variables. To date, no study has directly assessed the relationship between disgust and NVP. Here, we pro...

Gandia KM, Herrelko ES, Kessler SE & Buchanan-Smith HM (2023) Understanding Circadian and Circannual Behavioral Cycles of Captive Giant Pandas (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) Can Help to Promote Good Welfare. Animals, 13 (15), Art. No.: 2401. https://doi.org/10.3390/ani13152401 See

Circadian and circannual cycles of behavior regulate many aspects of welfare including metabolism, breeding, and behavioral interactions. In this study, we aim to demonstrate how systematically determining circadian and circannual cycles can provide insight into animals’ needs and be part of an evidence-based approach to welfare assessment. We measured and analyzed the observational behavioral data of 13 zoo-housed giant pandas (Ailuropoda melanoleuca), across life stages and between sexes, e...

Irvine L, Morris JH, Dombrowski SU, Breckenridge JP, Farre A, Ozakinci G, Lebedis T & Jones C (2023) Keeping Active with Texting after Stroke (KATS): development of a text message intervention to promote physical activity and exercise after stroke. Pilot and Feasibility Studies, 9, Art. No.: 105. https://doi.org/10.1186/s40814-023-01326-x See

Background Post-stroke physical activity reduces disability and risk of further stroke. When stroke rehabilitation ends, some people feel abandoned by services and struggle to undertake physical activities that support recovery and health. The aim of this study was to codesign a novel text message intervention to promote physical activity among people with stroke and provide support when formal rehabilitation ends. This manuscript describes the intervention development processes that will in...

Lee AJ, Jones BC, Zietsch BP, Jern P, Connolly H & Marcinkowska UM (2023) No evidence that sociosexual orientation moderates effects of conception probability on women’s preferences for male facial masculinity. Scientific Reports, 13 (1), Art. No.: 10245. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-023-37404-6 See

Although many researchers have proposed that women will show stronger preferences for male facial masculinity when conception probability is high, empirical tests of this hypothesis have produced mixed results. One possible explanation for these inconsistent findings is that effects of conception probability on women’s preferences for facial masculinity are moderated by additional factors not typically considered in these empirical tests. One such potential moderator is individual differences...

Farre A, Morris JH, Irvine L, Dombrowski SU, Breckenridge JP, Ozakinci G, Lebedis T & Jones C (2023) Exploring the views and experiences of people recovering from stroke about a new text message intervention to promote physical activity after rehabilitation – Keeping Active with Texting After Stroke: a qualitative study. Health Expectations. https://doi.org/10.1111/hex.13809 See

Participating in exercise following a stroke is essential for recovery. When community-based rehabilitation services end, some people struggle to remain active. We codesigned Keeping Active with Texting After Stroke (KATS), a text message intervention to support home-based, self-directed plans to continue exercising. KATS delivers a series of automated text messages over a 12-week period from the point of discharge from National Health Service-funded therapy. The aim of this study was to expl...
