Correlation does not equal causation: Questioning the Great Cahokia Flood.
Munoz et al. (1) present an argument for Cahokia’s demise focusing on a massive flood event ca. A.D. 1200. Although we recognize that a flood event may have occurred, we do not agree with their hypothesis that this event (i) caused the collapse of the largest Pre-Columbian city north of Mexico and (ii) occurred ca. A.D. 1200. Cahokians did not vacate the floodplain until after the mid-14th cent...
متن کاملPopulation size does not explain past changes in cultural complexity.
Demography is increasingly being invoked to account for features of the archaeological record, such as the technological conservatism of the Lower and Middle Pleistocene, the Middle to Upper Paleolithic transition, and cultural loss in Holocene Tasmania. Such explanations are commonly justified in relation to population dynamic models developed by Henrich [Henrich J (2004)Am Antiq69:197-214] an...
متن کاملFluid loss does not explain coagulation activation during air travel.
The mechanism of air travel-related venous thrombosis is unclear. Although immobility plays a pivotal role, other factors such as fluid loss may contribute. We investigated whether fluid loss occurred more in individuals with coagulation activation after air travel than in subjects without. As a secondary aim, we investigated whether fluid loss per se occurred during air travel. In this crossov...
متن کاملPhysiology does not explain all sex differences in running performance.
S ex differences in elite athletic performance have been of long-standing interest to physiologists. For example, the 10%–12% sex gap observed for most running world records and elite competitions spurred numerous studies on the contributors to maximal oxygen consumption (4). Moreover , the sex gap varies substantially across sports and age groups, and this variation has stimulated further phys...
متن کاملPolarity correspondence does not explain the SNARC effect
Conceptual metaphor congruency effects have been interpreted as evidence for the notion that the representation of abstract conceptual dimensions (e.g., power, evaluation) rests on more concrete dimensions (e.g., space, brightness). However, an alternative account based on the notion of polarity correspondence has recently received empirical support from studies about the mapping between affect...
