Causal Inference With Observational Data and Unobserved Confounding Variables.
Ecol Lett
January 2025
Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Colorado Boulder, Boulder, Colorado, USA.
Experiments have long been the gold standard for causal inference in Ecology. As Ecology tackles progressively larger problems, however, we are moving beyond the scales at which randomised controlled experiments are feasible. To answer causal questions at scale, we need to also use observational data -something Ecologists tend to view with great scepticism.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the need for computer-users to work-from-home (WFH) has increased world-wide. This study aims to explore how the COVID-19 lockdown has affected pain in the lower-back of adult computer professionals. Individuals aged 20-55, both male and female, meeting inclusion criteria (computer/laptop WFH, worked more than an hour on a computer/laptop) were invited to participate voluntarily after providing informed consent.

Law Hum Behav
January 2025
Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center.
Objective: We conducted a survey to catalog the state of open science in the field of psychology and law. We addressed four major questions: (a) How do psycholegal researchers define open science? (b) How do psycholegal researchers perceive open science? (c) How often do psycholegal researchers use various open science practices? and (d) What barriers, if any, do psycholegal researchers face or expect to face when implementing open science practices?
Hypotheses: We did not make specific hypotheses given the exploratory and descriptive nature of the study.
Method: We surveyed 740 psychology and law researchers (45% faculty, 64% doctoral degree, 66% women, and 85% White/non-Hispanic) about their perceptions of and experiences with open science using a mixed-methods design.
Which comes first, puberty or identity? The longitudinal interrelations between pubertal timing and sexual minority self-identification among early adolescents.
Am Psychol
January 2025
Department of Psychology, University of Minnesota, Twin Cities.
Sexual minority adolescents experience puberty earlier than their heterosexual peers. Early puberty is an indicator of premature aging and can be partly driven by chronic stress linked to discrimination. Nonetheless, the neural, cognitive, and social development linked to puberty enables adolescents to explore and understand their sexual identities.

Biochem Soc Trans
January 2025
Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, University of Ottawa, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
Many prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells store inorganic phosphate in the form of polymers called polyphosphate (polyP). There has been an explosion of interest in polyP over the past decade, in part due to newly suggested roles related to diverse aspects of human health. The physical interaction of polyP chains with specific proteins has been proposed to regulate cellular homeostasis and modulate signaling pathways in response to environmental changes.
