The present dataset results from the integration of trait measurements from many datasets received via TRY and additional, partly unpublished, data. The data come from largely independent studies, that address a wide variety of questions at different scales, and using different measurement methods, uni...
We estimated the evolutionary history of the elasmobranch neurocranium by comparing Brownian Motion (BM), single-peak Ornstein Uhlenbeck (OU) and Early Burst (EB) models of trait evolution using the mvMORPH function mvgls31. We used generalised information criterion (GIC) values to compare between...
Therefore, any definition of an Unmwelt, claimed to be biologically meaningful, is deemed to be imprecise semantically and should be formulated by taking into consideration some conditions of the fuzzy logic (as it is defined by Kosko [30]). The latter means, among others, that such “fuzzy...

of soft polytomies (via the 'multi2di' function of the same package). Simulation-based studies have highlighted the importance of incorporating an estimate of error in trait measurements to avoid bias toward models with lower phylogenetic signal64(e.g., OU model; see definition for phylogenetic...

However, the definition of limited WE is unclear and methods to assess it lack a scientific basis. As a result, inter-rater reliability between Dutch IP's assessing WE is low. Purpose of the study Recently a research project was started in the Netherlands aiming to better define and ...
The performance of the breeds in respect of 21 traits was studied and statistically analyzed using analysis of variance (Singh and Choudhary, 1985). Silkworm breeds were short-listed using multiple trait evaluation index method as suggested by Mano et at., (1993). Evaluation Index ...
[2]. There is, as yet, no universally agreed-upon definition of the term empathy; however, in order to measure the attribute, a consensus on its definition is required. For this reason, the definition adopted here is that proposed by the authors of theJefferson Scale of Physician Empathy,...
