#Humans #strategically avoid connecting to others who agree and avert the emergence of #NetworkPolarization in a #CoordinationTask

"Individuals preferentially selected links to previously unobserved and #disagreeing others, avoiding links with #agreeing others. This prevented #cluster formation, sped up #consensus formation rather than impeding it, and increased the probability that the group agreed on the #majority incentive"

Just out in #ScientificReports: "Estimating vaccine coverage in conflict settings using geospatial methods: a case study in Borno state, Nigeria".

What can #geospatial #modeling tell us about #vaccine coverage in #conflict settings? How do those estimates compare to traditional #survey methods? What do we still need to learn?

Note to self. Avoid submitting any future manuscripts to #ScientificReports

Last ms - 6+ months and one review completed, finally told current editor couldn't complete the review it needed to be reassigned, yeah no, we pulled it and submitted elsewhere. Surely that bungle was a fluke, let's try again.

Current ms - paper accepted, yay, but we've been waiting 6+ weeks just to get a license agreement to sign. What's the hold up, isn't this literally their business?!

Paper co-authored with collaborators in Mexico accepted for publication in #scientificreports

Title: Moral reasoning and moral competence as predictors of cooperative behavior in a social dilemma

In the prisoner's dilemma game, participants with developed (postconventional) moral reasoning and stronger moral competence (consistently applying reasoning across situations) more cooperated even after being defected by their counterparts.

"Predation is hypothesized as one selective pressure that may have driven the evolution of multicellularity...Two of five experimental populations of [the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas] evolved multicellular structures."

If you're a species isolated underground for millions of years, can you still respond to extreme temperatures like above-ground relatives? Our new paper in #ScientificReports uses Aussie aquifer-bound beetles to examine heat stress at the #transcriptome level: http://rdcu.be/cWvDz 🪲🔥
