Abstract:
... Cooking interventions have been criticised for their weak designs and ‘kitchen sink’ approach to content development. Currently, there is no scientific guidance for the inclusion of specific skills in children's cooking interventions. Therefore, a four step method was used to develop age-appropriate cooking skill recommendations based on relevant developmental motor skills. The steps include: 1) a ...

Abstract:
... Health Professionals (HPs) play an important role in supporting parents to care for their children, by facilitating parents' knowledge and skills development through parent education. This is achieved through teaching, whereby planned strategies, based on principles of how people learn, enable learning. Despite Learning Principles being the fundamental tenets of the learning process, how HPs perce ...

Abstract:
... Trials investigating the efficacy of different interventions for overweight children are limited and controversial. Therefore, the aim of this study is to perform a network meta-analysis on the efficacy of various interventions for children with obesity (an average age of 6–12 years old).We obtained the data of trials reporting pre-post obesity relevant outcomes (e.g. BMI, BMI z-score, percent bod ...

Abstract:
... Low consumption of vegetables in children is a concern around the world, hence approaches aimed at increasing intake are highly relevant. Previous studies have shown that repeated taste exposure is an effective strategy to increase vegetable acceptance. However, few studies have examined the effect of repeated taste exposure on children varying in bitter taste sensitivity. This study investigated ...

Abstract:
... Motivated by how child support costs are divided between parents in Michigan and Arizona, we define the child support cost sharing problem. Monetary support from each parent is transferred between the two parents according to an adjustment function that is based on the amount of time the child spends with the parents. We introduce eight interrelated axioms that a child support adjustment function ...

... We study whether nudging can improve payment morale for taxes and dues when enforcement through public institutions is low because of social reasons. In a natural field experiment involving the parents of children who attend lessons in a municipal music school, we find that nudging parents with appeals to children’s education improves the punctual payment of dues by about five percentage points, w ...

Abstract:
... Our ability to predict how species will respond to human-induced rapid environmental change (HIREC) may depend upon our understanding of transgenerational plasticity (TGP), which occurs when environments experienced by previous generations influence phenotypes of subsequent generations. TGP evolved to help organisms cope with environmental stressors when parental environments are highly predictive ...

Abstract:
... We investigated the division of provisioning between Fieldfare Turdus pilaris mates as well as synchronisation and alternation of parental feeding trips. We found that parents equally participated in provisioning of older nestlings, but males provisioned young nestlings more than their mates. Synchronisation between parents was higher during the early nestling stage, when they alternated more than ...

... Banded terrain is a planetary enigma that may be associated with salt diapirs. We study such features in Mount Sedom diapir, which is one of the few places on Earth where rock-salt is partly exposed and well-preserved because of the extreme aridity of its setting. The relief and surface features of the diapir generally reflect its parent-rock geological structure, stratigraphy and lithology on one ...

Abstract:
... It is increasingly realized that homoploid hybrid speciation (HHS), which involves no change in chromosome number, is an important mechanism of speciation. HHS will likely increase in frequency as ecological and geographical barriers between species are continuing to be disrupted by human activities. HHS requires the establishment of reproductive isolation between a hybrid and its parents, but the ...

SG is a branch ...

Abstract:

Partners can potentially monitor each other directly (modify their effort sequentially in direct response to the prior effort of their mate) or indirectly (parents modify their effort through the begging rates of their offspring). This study examined whether partner negotiation or begging by larvae best exp ...

Whether such effects occur in nature is unknown, however. Here, we present the ...
