We propose new definitions for moral injury and distress, encompassing many prior definitions, but broadening to more general classes of victims, in addition perpetrators witnesses, distress include settings not involving institutional constraints. relate these notions each other, locate them on a "moral trauma spectrum" that includes considerations both persistence severity. Instances which is particularly severe persistent, extends beyond cultural religious norms, might be considered...
The Global Flourishing Study is a longitudinal panel study of over 200,000 participants in 22 geographically and culturally diverse countries, spanning all six populated continents, with nationally representative sampling, intended annual data collection for five years on numerous aspects flourishing its determinants. A description the study, design, survey development, sampling procedures, participant characteristics provided. We report relations between composite index demographic...
Background: Relatively few studies have examined how self-rated physical health (SRH) varies across: (a) countries around the world; and (b) demographic characteristics in diverse nations cultures. Methods: The current study addresses these issues by providing a cross-national random effects meta-analysis of SRH using data from Global Flourishing Study (GFS), an international survey 202,898 individuals 22 geographically, economically, culturally collected 2022-2023. Results: On scale 0-10...
In crustaceans, grooming behaviors decrease fouling by removing debris from the exoskeleton and body structures; these improve respiration, sensory reception, movement, reproduction. Setal morphologies of following appendages in decapod crustacean spider crab Libinia dubia are examined including first pereiopod (cheliped), first, second, third maxillipeds (mouthparts), epipods (internal extensions maxillipeds). The objective this study was to describe setal elucidate possible functions...
Grooming behaviors reduce fouling of body regions. In decapods, grooming time budgets, regions groomed, and appendages are known in several species; however, little data exists on brachyuran crabs. this study, two commercially important crabs were documented (blue crabs: Callinectes sapidus Rathbun, 1896; stone Menippe mercenaria Say, 1818). These harvested by fishermen knowing their is valuable, as clean preferred consumers the crab fishery consequence removing one cheliped to unknown....
Grooming behaviors that decrease fouling have been documented in various animals. The result of autogrooming has frequently documented, with the and time spent grooming being highly variable taxa. Setae are important removing as well optimizing sensory reception movement crustaceans. Mantis shrimps (Stomatopoda) marine crustaceans divided into two groups (smashers spearers) based on morphology their foraging appendages. While other structures mantis intensely studied (foraging, agonistic,...
Body fouling has been reduced by grooming behaviors. In decapods, focused on gills, sensory structures, and jointed appendages. this study, behaviors of the spider crab, Libinia dubia H. Milne-Edwards, 1834, were examined; brachyuran crab decorates camouflages body regions attaching materials onto hooked setae. The relationship between these camouflaged was unknown. Six observational experimental studies examined frequency, duration behaviors, groomed, variance in presence another...
Abstract Respiration, sensory input, movement, and molting rely on crustacean body regions being free of fouling. While the grooming appendages shrimps have been described, few studies documented functional morphology in brachyuran crabs. Because brachyurans very different behaviors, their setae may vary. The blue (Callinectes sapidusRathbun, 1896) stone (Menippe mercenaria (Say, 1818)) crabs were investigated to gain better insight into efficiencies decreasing Callinectes sapidus is an...
Abstract Grooming behaviors reduce body fouling and are well documented in crustaceans. There more detailed laboratory-based grooming studies on fully aquatic crabs compared to semi-terrestrial crabs. By contrast, predicted have different time budgets than because not constantly submerged water that can mechanically remove sedimentary fouling, whereas crustaceans increased from algae epibionts. We studied the of two crab species. Crabs (N = 50 ghost crabs, Ocypode quadrata (Fabricius, 1787);...
Abstract The giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii (De Man, 1879), lives in environments of the Indo-West Pacific region and is commonly farmed. Males transition into three male morphotypes that differ behavior morphology. Small-clawed males (SM) molt orange-clawed (OC) harvested largest blue-clawed (BC). Grooming behaviors can remove fouling such as sediment particles, bacteria, other organisms, all which are found natural environment well aquaculture environments. Because...
Social environments can have an impact on the interactions between sexes, specifically pre-courtship behaviors. Sexual selection theory may explain social of where males display and attract mates more than females. These behaviors intensify in a sexual environment. It was hypothesized that individuals would sexualized environment compared to non-sexualized location. This research sampled N = 880 participants at university southern state North America asked which unisex sunglasses they...
Abstract The setal abundances and distributions of the spider crab Libinia are examined, using two species. These crabs decorate their bodies with environmental materials camouflage from predators. decorations attach to hooked setae, but other types setae prevalent in body regions where occur. Adult undergo a terminal molt lose ability regrow setae. Little is known about changes over lifetime these if abundance decreases age, resulting loss strategy larger individuals. objective this study...
