Gender differences in individual variation in academic grades fail to fit expected patterns for STEM

TL;DR: Comparing gender differences in academic grades from over 1.6 million students finds strong evidence for lower variation among girls than boys, and of higher average grades for girls, suggesting that greater variability is insufficient to explain male over-representation in STEM.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonindependence and sensitivity analyses in ecological and evolutionary meta‐analyses

TL;DR: This work argues that exploring the effects of procedural decisions in a meta‐analysis and statistical assumptions using sensitivity analyses are extremely important in assessing the impact of nonindependence, and provides pragmatic solutions for dealing with nonindependent study designs, and for analysing dependent effect sizes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Research Weaving: Visualizing the Future of Research Synthesis

TL;DR: A new framework for research synthesis of both evidence and influence, named research weaving, is proposed, which summarizes and visualizes information content, history, and networks among a collection of documents on any given topic by combining the power of systematic mapping and bibliometrics.

The role of non-genetic inheritance in evolutionary rescue: epigenetic buffering, heritable bet hedging and epigenetic traps

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that epigenetic modifications can facilitate evolutionary rescue through ‘epigenetic buffering’, by facilitating the inheritance of novel phenotypic variants that are generated by environmental change—a strategy the authors call ‘heritable bet hedging’.
