This investigation attempted to conceptually replicate/extend research that suggests that reminders of money can inhibit prosociality, promote self-sufficiency, and influence political beliefs. Based on these results, we hypothesized that money primes would decrease willingness to engage in sustainable actions. We also predicted that people would distribute points less prosocially and feel less socially connected when money was primed. Individuals were recruited from an undergraduate participant pool and MTurk. Meta-analytic results across the two samples revealed that money priming did not have a significant impact on willingness to act sustainably, but it did cause participants to distribute points less prosocially and report lower social connectedness than individuals in the control condition. While effects were smaller than those reported in Vohs, Mead, and Goode (2006), this study still offers support for the detrimental impact of reminders of money on interpersonal relations.

Introduction: Influenza is often considered a trivial illness due to its generally mild symptoms. This perception overlooks the extensive scale of people affected annually, many of whom experience severe complications requiring hospitalization. To date, vaccination remains the most effective strategy to reduce the burden of influenza.

Vaccination in pregnancy is a safe and effective method for protecting both the pregnant woman/person and their infant from communicable diseases. Despite a growing body of evidence of the benefits of vaccination during pregnancy and the widespread introduction of vaccines during pregnancy for influenza, pertussis, and COVID-19, there is no national research agenda in Canada to guide funding and research. We sought to create a roadmap for Canadian vaccination in pregnancy research.

Money laundering facilitates serious crime, enables the expansion of criminal operations, and destabilises economies. Extant scholarship is largely concerned with anti-money laundering approaches, with far less attention being paid to the language and behaviours of the individuals who engage in money laundering. 'Dark-web' discussion fora are prime loci for illicit knowledge exchange and key enablers of money laundering, yet, are underexplored as sites for understanding the online activities and behaviours of users.

Previous research has extensively examined the impact of money on morality, yet limited attention has been given to how the mere contemplation of money influences moral reasoning and decision-making. The present study aims to address this gap by exploring how both the concept of money and the love of money shape deontological and utilitarian inclinations in moral judgments. In Study 1 ( = 102), we investigated the effect of money concept priming on moral thinking.

Purpose: To use artificial intelligence (AI) for quantifying schisis volume (ASV) in X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) for use as a structural endpoint in gene therapy clinical trials.
Methods: We used data from Singapore, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and the United States. The AI model was developed on 250 optical coherence tomography (OCT) slices, with human annotation of schisis cavities (Dataset 1).
