:rofl::rofl:! I think all of us can hazard a pretty good guess as to why the VO2 max data haven’t been published in this paper.
Eurgh!!! How patronising! "Exercise can feel unpleasant!"
This.
Not again! Please let's not promote this "behaviour of a minority" meme unless we can at least define it, in terms of what actions this appalling...
It is somewhat interesting to explore MDD people's experience of the body. Or it would be if there wasn't so much nonsense in the piece. Not to...
What's this "behaviour of a few" I keep hearing about? What did these "few" actually do? I genuinely don't know, but it must be pretty damned...
That's as may be, but the measure of interest is how the self-reports were affected by the way the cream was presented to the participants -...

Oh no, I'm worried the headline sets this up to be lampooned. Sounds like something from The Onion. "Woman becomes so angry with the internet that...
Also wanted to say, I don't think this study has much import. It was probably dumped in a Frontiers journal after being rejected from other...
Just noticed this, @Three Chord Monty. Who knew that "disease oriented" was a personality style? Hell, end of life care units must be full of...
Yea, I've noticed that in FND too, and I think the reason for the greater acceptance of psyc accounts in these areas is that the accounts are more...
Just thinking on it, the idea that autoimmune diseases result from stress has a really dark side: Because these diseases are more common in women,...
