Men are most jealous of sexual infidelity but when it comes to women, emotional infidelity is what makes them the most jealous, reveals a study.

But it is also considered infidelity when your significant other develops a close personal relationship with someone else, even if there is no sex or physical intimacy involved. Norwegian researchers now show that men and women react differently to various types of infidelity and evolutionary psychology may help explain why this may be. “Men and women’s >>>

A staple in college psychology courses is the story of polio and “spongy tar.” It seems that decades ago, researchers noticed that there were higher polio rates during times when tar was spongier in children's playgrounds. Based on that, they mistakenly concluded that spongy tar causes polio and raised an alarm; in response, some schools went so far as to dig up their tar playgrounds — before scientists realized that the tar and the polio were both symptoms of something else: hotter temperatures. Polio tended to be a summertime problem, and tar softens in the hot >>>

Sport comes with injuries; it’s a fact of life. Whether it’s a rolled ankle or fractured leg, a strained hamstring or broken nose, play long enough and you’ll get hurt. Professional clubs have an army of doctors, trainers, physiotherapists and medics on the payroll to deal with these mishaps quickly, with seriously injured players rushed straight to hospital and into surgery, then supported through their rehabilitation.But what happens when it isn’t a physical condition, but a psychological one?Adjunct Associate Professor Patsy Tremayne, >>>

By ELLEN ENDO “There is no sincerer love than the love of food.” –George Bernard Shaw, Nobel Prize-winning playwright My love-hate relationship with that ubiquitous staple known as “ramen” began when I was around 10 years old. Dad was a big fan of fresh noodles. That left two choices: Make them at home yourself or buy them. We didn’t own a noodle-making machine, so it was off to the Hong Kong Noodle Company about five blocks away. As I approached the front counter, a man in an apron reached for a box of dried noodles and put it in front of me. Most people preferred the dried >>>
