We applied aluminum hinged shoes (AHSs) to the club foot-associated contracted feet of 11 Thoroughbred yearlings to examine the effects of the shoes on the shape of the hoof and third phalanx (P III). After 3 months of AHS use, the size of the affected hooves increased significantly, reaching the approximate size of the healthy contralateral hooves with respect to the maximum lateral width of t...

The facial width-to-height ratio (fWHR) is a perceptual cue that affects the perception of psychological traits such as dominance. current research examined whether fWHR would impact dominance and emotional intensity when expressing emotions. In study one, we expressions (EFEs) modify visually perceivable by following specific pattern reflecting associated with basic EFEs. We found EFEs differe...
