Aim: In this study, we examined gender differences in fraction learning and explored potential underlying mechanisms.
Methods: The mediating effects of spatial ability and mathematical anxiety on gender differences in fraction learning were tested in elementary school students. A total of 165 sixth-grade students (83 girls) from public elementary schools participated in the study.

Facial landmarks, widely studied in human affective computing, are beginning to gain interest in the animal domain. Specifically, landmark-based geometric morphometric methods have been used to objectively assess facial expressions in cats, focusing on pain recognition and the impact of breed-specific morphology on facial signaling. These methods employed a 48-landmark scheme grounded in cat facial anatomy.

Background: The rise of wearable sensors marks a significant development in the era of affective computing. Their popularity is continuously increasing, and they have the potential to improve our understanding of human stress. A fundamental aspect within this domain is the ability to recognize perceived stress through these unobtrusive devices.

The utilization of Electroencephalography (EEG) for emotion recognition has emerged as the primary tool in the field of affective computing. Traditional supervised learning methods are typically constrained by the availability of labeled data, which can result in weak generalizability of learned features. Additionally, EEG signals are highly correlated with human emotional states across temporal, spatial, and spectral dimensions.

Preloading of alcohol and/or drugs before an event has been examined in the research literature for the past two decades. Despite the considerable interest and scrutiny on the behaviour, there are limited, if any, attempts to conceptualise a theoretical understanding of why people preload before an event. Here we propose a Theory of Preloading (TOP)-a general cognitive-behavioural motivational model for alcohol and drug preloading.
