Personal advice vs. professional advice: how financial literacy moderates joint decision-making in cryptocurrency investment

Purpose Drawing on social influence theory and self-efficacy theory, this study aims to investigate how personal and professional financial advice are associated with cryptocurrency investment behavior and how financial and investment literacy moderate these relationships, addres...

High‐Density‐Cluster Ru Catalyst Substitute for Pt/C Benchmark Improves Membrane Water Electrolysis

ABSTRACT The hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is of great importance for the renewable energy conversion to hydrogen fuel via water electrolysis. However, the current benchmark Pt/C catalyst suffers from high cost, pH sensitivity, and deficient durability, severely restricting t...

Shyness and Adjustment in Two Cohorts of Rural Chinese Children

ABSTRACT The present study examined relations between anxiety‐based shyness and social, school, and psychological adjustment in rural Chinese children at two different historical periods. Participants included two cohorts (2012 and 2022) in middle childhood from Southeast China (...

Gender differences in how psychological capital shapes professional commitment

Psychological capital (PsyCap) is widely regarded as an important psychological resource for teachers, yet its association with professional commitment may operate differently across gender groups. Grounded in Social Role Theory, Role Congruity Theory, and the PsyCap framework, t...

Assessing the Digital Leadership Preparedness for the AI Era: A Latent Profile Analysis Based on the ACC Model

Purpose This study investigates the digital leadership of Chinese K-12 educational administrators in the context of rapid artificial intelligence (AI) development. Design/Approach/Method Drawing on survey data from 1,426 educational administrators in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Reg...

Policing Survival: The Epistemic Status of Famine Botany in Late Imperial China

Abstract This article examines how Jiuhuang bencao was codified, circulated, marginalized and reactivated in late imperial China, asking what these changes suggest about attitudes toward famine relief and useful knowledge. Compiled in the early Ming by Prince Zhu Su, this treatis...

Rethinking urban ecosystem service flow through human mobility: The neighborhood effect averaging problem

Daily exposure to ecosystem services (ES) plays an important role in improving urban residents' health; however, residents' actual contact with ES, referred to as ecosystem service flows, depends not only on local biophysical conditions of urban nature but also on human daily mob...

On the short-wavelength stability and the Kelvin–Helmholtz instability of some explicit solutions to the two-layer nonlinear three-dimensional water wave problem

Abstract This study is concerned with explicit solutions in the Eulerian framework to the three-dimensional nonlinear Euler equations with a free surface and an interface. Starting with a depth-dependent density, continuous within the fluid domain, except across the interface, we...

Spatial Subsample Bootstraps for High-dimensional Spatial Data with Irregular Spacing

We develop a class of spatial subsample bootstrap (SSB) methods for high-dimensional spatial data observed at irregular locations.The proposed procedures approximate the distributions of high-dimensional spatial statistics under general spatial dependence without requiring regula...

Charge functions for all dimensional partitions

The charge functions for n n -dimensional partitions are known for n=2,3,4 n = 2 , 3 , 4 in the literature. In a recent work, we gave the expression for arbitrary odd dimension; here we further conjecture a formula for all even-dimensional cases. This conjecture is proved rigorou...

Res-PGDnet: A time frequency fusion model with physiologically constrained adversarial training for PPG-based valence–arousal state classification

Accurate valence–arousal assessment is crucial for affective computing applications. Photoplethysmography (PPG) is a promising, practical modality for this task, but it poses challenges: signals are noise-prone, the physiological affect mapping is complex and subject-specific, an...

Machine Learning-Assisted Measurement of Three-Dimensional Particle Self-Rotation and Revolution in Swirling Flow Fields

Accurate characterization of particle dynamics in complex swirling flows is essential for understanding flow behavior and transport mechanisms. However, extracting three-dimensional (3D) rotational motion parameters of particles from High-Speed Motion Analyzer (HSMA) imaging expe...

Shared Genetic and Regulatory Architecture of Congenital Heart Disease and Autism Spectrum Disorder Revealed by Cross-Tissue Multi-Omic Integration

Background: Congenital heart disease (CHD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) co-occur more frequently than expected, suggesting shared developmental susceptibility. We aimed to identify cross-tissue molecular candidates linking cardiac and neurodevelopmental abnormalities. Metho...

Bayesian Hierarchical Multinomial Modeling of Multifunctional Word Usage in Learner-Corpus Data: Evidence from the English Word That

This study applies a Bayesian hierarchical multinomial model to examine the functional distribution of the English word ‘that’ in learner-corpus data. The corpus consisted of 154,694 running words of learner-generated online comments and peer replies produced by 139 first-year Ch...

A Comparative Pedagogy for the n -Butyl Acetate Synthesis Experiment and Its Impact Assessment

Abstract This article presents a multi-route instructional design for the classic synthesis of n-butyl acetate, aimed at addressing the limited student autonomy, weak methodological comparison, and insufficient engagement often observed in traditional single-procedure laboratory...

Do sung speech and background noise affect sentence repetition in dyslexia?

Abstract Developmental dyslexia (DD) is typically associated with slow and laborious reading, but there is also evidence pointing to speech-in-noise perception difficulties and a deficit in rapid stimulus processing. We looked at sentence repetition in 56 adult participants, half...

Multi‐Objective Inverse Design of a Dual‐Narrowband Thermal Emitter for Optical Gas Sensing

ABSTRACT Spectrally selective narrowband thermal emitters with high‐temperature stability are critical infrared sources for advanced gas sensing. However, conventional Tamm‐plasmon narrowband thermal emitters are commonly implemented as distributed Bragg reflectors on thin metal...

Reconstructed XCO2 Reveals Seasonal Moisture Limitation Sensitivity Across Typical Steppe, Forest, and Gobi Desert in Mongolia

Satellite-derived atmospheric CO2 observations provide important information for regional carbon monitoring, but their sparse spatial and temporal coverage limits their use in data-sparse drylands. We reconstructed seamless monthly column-averaged atmospheric CO2 (XCO2) over Mong...

Cu-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of (Hetero)Aryl Halides with Malonates: One-Pot Assembly of α-Arylacetic Acid Scaffolds

Abstract A direct synthesis of α-arylacetic acids from (hetero)aryl chlorides and bromides and malonates via Cu/oxalamide-catalyzed cross-coupling with tandem hydrolysis and decarboxylation is described. Enabled by tailored oxalamide ligand L4, the reaction proceeds smoothly unde...
