The human evidence is of two kinds. First, in a provocative experiment, male subjects were asked to each wear a T-shirt, and female subjects to rate the odors of these T-shirts for pleasantness (sexiness). The subjects, all of whom were students at a Swiss university, were also typed ...
The economist may wonder whether there is evidence that a particular economic policy could improve the probability of children falling into poverty, and the product marketer would like to understand the sales impact of a particular consumer retention campaign. The doctor, economist, product marketer, ...

Nine-year-old Ellie has been a worrier since early childhood. In the preschool years, she was afraid to be alone in her room, and terrified when her parents left her with a babysitter. Now in primary school, Ellie is afraid to speak in class, and she is so shy during lunch that she...
Young people spend half of their days in school, but evidence concerning the influence of school environment on the physical activity (PA) of pupils is still inconsistent. A better understanding of potential correlates of PA on the school-level and their possible interaction with individual aspects...
However, evidence from multiple independent studies underscores the pronounced inter-individual variability in the spatial layout of functional networks, commonly referred to as functional topography, in both youths and adults [23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32]. This personalized functional topography ...
it has been widely accepted that mature B cells express IgM and IgD with the same VHDJHrecombination pattern, although without evidence from single B cells. We analyzed the VHDJHrecombination patterns in 456 single B cells co-expressing IgM and IgD, and found that IgM and IgD in a single ...
These species are intensively studied examples of intraspecific diet variation26,27,28,29,30,31. We supplement these correlative studies with experimental evidence that diet and sex interactively affect microbiota composition in laboratory populations (stickleback and lab mice). Finally, we show that ...
Since the theoretical paper by Bruce and Young (1986), both distinctions have been incorporated into widely discussed experimental paradigms, standardised tests, and cognitive models. Much of this previous work was focussed on a case study approach based on examples from the extremes of ability, ...
Given this, one could be forgiven for thinking that interventions based on the miasmatic theory, being successful, constituted good evidence for the theory (given the state of knowledge at the time) — that is to say, there were good rational reasons for believing the theory. Before leaving ...
