Mashup Score: 7
Maintaining a pair bond year after year (perennial monogamy) often enhances reproductive success, but what familiar pairs are doing differently to improve success is unknown. We tested the hypothesis that endocrine changes mediate improvements in parental …

Mashup Score: 79Move less, spend more: the metabolic demands of short walking bouts | Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences - 17 day(s) ago
The metabolic cost of steady-state walking is well known; however, across legged animals, most walking bouts are too short to reach steady state. Here, we investigate how bout duration affects the metabolic cost of human walking with varying mechanical …

Walking with pauses burns more energy than a steady pace, research shows. Short breaks or stops can enhance health benefits and make walks more enjoyable. This effect is strongest for those with lower fitness levels. https://t.co/8YPeeWN6Dg https://t.co/16PTyUjkAN

Mashup Score: 4
Disadvantageous inequity aversion (IA), a negative response to receiving less than others, is a key building block of the human sense of fairness. While some theorize that IA is shared by species across the animal kingdom, others argue that it is an …

Mashup Score: 29Day-to-day associations between testosterone, sexual desire and courtship efforts in young men | Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences - 2 month(s) ago
Testosterone plays important roles in reproductive behaviour in many species. Despite a common belief that testosterone regulates fluctuations in human sexual desire, there is little direct evidence that relates within-person changes in natural …

Mashup Score: 66Habitat fragmentation, biodiversity loss and the risk of novel infectious disease emergence | Journal of The Royal Society Interface - 5 month(s) ago
The number of microbes on Earth may be 1030, exceeding all other diversity. A small number of these can infect people and cause disease. The diversity of parasitic organisms likely correlates with the hosts they live in and the number mammal hosts for …

Greater knowledge is always an advantage for a rational individual. However, this article shows that for a group of rational individuals greater knowledge can backfire, leading to a worse outcome for all. Surprisingly, this can happen even when new …

Evolutionary biology rejoices in the diversity of life, but this comes at a cost: other than working in the common framework of neo-Darwinian evolution, specialists in, for example, diatoms and mammals have little to say to each other. Accordingly, their …
