This study examined the effects of stress and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) on a measure of astrocyte reactivity in nonhuman primate (NHP) models of stress. Results showed that chronic separation stress in NHPs leads to increased signs of astrogliosis in the NHP hippocampus. The findings were consistent with the hypotheses that hippocampal astrogliosis is an important mechanism in stress-induced cognitive and behavioral deficits.

The authors looked at unionization petitions from Starbucks workers between August 2021 and July 2024 to determine what factors influence votes for or against unionization.

The authors analyzed biosolids from five Wisconsin wastewater treatment plants and suggest using KBr pellet FTIR as a simple and rapid method to start characterizing P species in biosolids.

We observed supernova 2025ngs and created its light curve through aperture photometry. We were then able to determine that 2025ngs was a Type II-P supernova.

The authors looked at how a student's own background influence their attitude towards integration of diverse cultures and ethnicities. While overall students viewed other groups positively, the authors found that groups still indicated they felt judged by their peers.

Supernovas are powerful explosions that result from gravitational collapse of a massive star. Using photometric analysis Arora et al. set out to investigate whether 2020pni (located in galaxy UGC 9684) was a supernova. They were ultimately able to identify 2020pni as a Type II-L supernova and determine it's distance from earth.

Consumers in India and the United Arab Emirates live in very different economic and cultural environments, and this study set out to measure how that shapes the way they shop and pay. Surveying 50 people in each country, they found that Indian consumers were more price-sensitive and favored cash, while UAE consumers prioritized convenience, gravitating toward credit cards, mobile wallets, and online shopping. The results offer practical insight for retailers, marketers, and policymakers working across these two fast-growing but culturally distinct markets.

Paper found that heat waves in India are linked to lower household income, agricultural income, and consumption, with agriculture being affected the most. It also suggests farm workers may adapt to extreme heat over time by increasing labor inputs despite rising temperatures.

The global issue of water quality has led to the use of machine learning models, like ANN and SVM, to predict water potability. However, these models can be complex and resource-intensive. This research aimed to find a simpler, more efficient model for water quality prediction.

The authors test the effect of test score comparison on the self-efficacy of adolescents versus adults.
