Commentary on &quot;Preliminary Species Hypotheses&quot; in Entomological Taxonomy: A Global Data and FAIR Infrastructure Perspective by Sharif Islam

“…Borrowing from software and open-source practices, I explore the idea of managing PSH with an infrastructure that treats each taxonomic update as a versioned &quot;commit&quot;, which can be tracked, refined and integrated over time. Drawing insights from FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) principles and Digital Extended Specimens, I identify infrastructure requirements for PSH, including robust data standards, persistent identifiers and interoperability to support global biodiversity repositories. …”

Eye Gaze and Dominance, Cues for Online Communication with Strangers by Beril Durmuş, Yonca Aslanbay, Murat Çinko, Aydin Erden

“…This study aims to reveal the impact of the direction of eye gaze and perceived dominance from those pictures during the process of pairing online with a stranger, for spending time in a closed environment. Preference between pairs of 66 participants through their profile pictures having a direct or averted gaze and some manipulated by facial width height ratio (fWHR) aiming to increase perceived dominance, were measured by the eye- tracking device. …”
