The authors assessed the effect of psychological stress on total and cause-specific mortality among men and women. In 1981–1983, the 12,128 Danish participants in the Copenhagen City Heart Study were asked two questions on stress intensity and frequency and were followed in a nationwide registry until 2004, with <0.1% loss to follow-up. Sex differences were found in the relations between stress...

What events do employees recall or anticipate when they think of past or future unfair treatment at work? We propose that an employee’s temporal perspective can change the salience of different types of injustice through its effect on cognitions about employment. Study 1 used a survey in which employee temporal focus was measured as an individual difference. Whereas greater levels of future foc...

—The Vegetarian Finch, Platyspiza crassirostris ! is a relatively unstudied Darwin’s finch that appears to be in decline in the Galápagos Islands. We monitored 11 nests of Vegetarian Finches during 2013 and 2014 on Santa Cruz Island, Galápagos, and found that 10 of these were infested with an invasive parasitic fly, Philornis downsi. This is the first report of P. downsi attacking this bird spe...

BACKGROUND This study compared parental smoking with school personnel smoking in relation to adolescents' smoking behaviours, alcohol use, and illicit drug use.

More on the exact solution of the O(n) model on a random lattice and an investigation of the case |n| > 2 Abstract For n ∈ [−2, 2] the O(n) model on a random lattice has critical points to which a scaling behaviour characteristic of 2D gravity interacting with conformal matter fields with c ∈ [−∞, 1] can be associated. Previously we have written down an exact solution of this model valid at any...
