摘要:
The current study used a person-centered approach to explore the co-occurrence of college students' achievement emotions. It also examined the impact of teacher support on achievement emotion profiles and the mediating effect of need satisfaction. A total of 866 college students participated in the survey. A robust three-step latent profile analysis was employed to analyze the data. Four profiles of achievement emotions were identified: moderate mixed emotions, the blends of high positive emotions, the blends of moderate positive emotions, and high mixed emotions. Higher perceived teacher support was associated with a greater likelihood of being classified into the blends of moderate positive emotion profile or the blends of high positive emotion profile. Moreover, basic psychological need satisfaction mediated the relationship between teacher support and the four emotion profiles. Our findings contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the role of teacher support in shaping achievement emotion profiles, helping to broaden the application of self-determination theory to explain the mechanism by which external support influences emotion profiles.

摘要:
Leader effects on employees’ work outcomes vary based on individual traits and task characteristics, and synergistic or compensatory relationships exist among leadership, individual, and task variables. This study aims to examine how visionary leadership facilitates proactive customer service performance (PCSP) and the role of personal initiative and workload in this relationship. Additionally, this study tests these relationships among a group of Chinese community workers, who primarily provide services to residents. Their PCSP is crucial for effective community management in China. Based on this, two hypotheses were proposed from a synergistic or compensatory perspective. The study surveyed 448 community workers (97.5% female, with 74.7% within the age range of 31–45) in an eastern Chinese city, using data from both self- and leader-rated assessments. The findings showed that employees with low personal initiative and high workloads benefit more from visionary leadership, demonstrating the compensatory effect of personal initiative and the synergistic effect of workload in the visionary leadership-PCSP relationship. This study contributes to a better understanding of the effectiveness of visionary leadership by considering the interactions between personal and situational factors. Additionally, it enriches PCSP research by considering the three-way interaction relationships and expanding the scope of participants. Future research should gather data from multiple time points, sources, and industries, as well as explore alternative mechanisms to further investigate the relationship between visionary leadership and PCSP.

摘要:
Elevation is an uplifting feeling evoked by witnessing other's moral beauty. Prior studies explored the impact of different aspects of completed moral acts on elevation. However, whether intended or completed moral acts have a greater impact on observers' elevation remains unclear. We hypothesize that intended moral acts evoke greater elevation in observers than completed ones. A total of 437 Chinese participants rated their elevation after reading manipulated descriptions about actors' moral acts in three online experiments. The results consistently supported our hypothesis. Moreover, the results of moderated mediation models showed that actors' moral potential mediated the effect of moral acts on elevation. Female observers exhibited stronger responses to intended moral acts than male observers. In addition, observers' elevation influenced their willingness to cooperate with the actors. Implications for elevation elicitation and future directions are discussed.
摘要:
Insight during problem solving is beneficial to long-term memory formation. It has been shown to promote later memory for the solution; however, the reason for this memory effect is unclear. We used eye tracking to test the memory effect of insight on delayed recall (Experiment 1) and immediate recall (Experiment 2) when participants selected novel or normal answers to riddles. Both experiments adopted the learning-test paradigm of answer selection. In the learning phase, four alternative answers to a riddle were presented on screen. Eye tracking recorded the fixation duration time on each alternative answer to evaluate the competition of thoughts in the process of problem solving. Delayed and immediate recall were assessed by asking the participants to provide the same answers to the riddles as they had in the learning phase. The results showed that (a) Whether in immediate or delayed recall tasks, the accuracy was higher after selecting novel answers than normal answers, confirming the memory advantage of insight. This effect was more obvious in the delayed recall task. (b) There was a longer total fixation duration time when selecting a novel answer than a normal answer. This suggests that novel answers have an advantage in the competition of thoughts. (c) Compared with selecting normal answers, selecting novel answers involved significantly longer fixation on the target region of interest, and significantly less attention on the main interference region. The results of this research suggest that the competitive advantage of novel thinking in problem solving may be an important reason why insight promotes memory.
摘要:
Whether parental educational expectations for adolescents serve as a source of motivation or stress depends on the extent to which adolescents hold expectations for themselves. Previous research on the discrepancies between parental and adolescent educational expectations and their impact on learning engagement has been limited by traditional statistical tests, and lacking an examination of the internal mediating mechanism of parent-child relational quality from both parental and adolescent perspectives. This cross-sectional study, utilizing a multi-informant design, examined the association between discrepancies in parents' and adolescents' reports of expectations, and adolescents' study engagement, as well as the mediating role of parent-child relational qualities perceived by both parties. The sample for this study consisted of 455 adolescents and their parents from 10 classes in a junior high school in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. The adolescents had an average age of 12.8 years, and 51.6% of them were boys. Both parents and adolescents reported on their expectations and perceived relational quality, while adolescents also filled out questionnaires assessing their learning engagement. Data were analyzed using polynomial regressions with response surface analysis. The results revealed that when adolescents reported high expectations, regardless of whether their parents reported high or low expectations, adolescents reported satisfied relationships and high learning engagement. In contrast, parents reported satisfied relationships when both parties reported high expectations, or when parents reported higher expectations than adolescents. Lastly, the association between discrepancies in expectations and learning engagement was significantly mediated by adolescent-reported relationships but not parent-reported ones. These findings highlight the importance of considering multiple perspectives when studying the association between expectations and adolescent study engagement. This research advances our comprehension of the dynamics between parent-adolescent educational expectation discrepancies and adolescent learning engagement, offering insights for more nuanced and effective parenting strategies tailored to foster optimal educational outcomes.
摘要:
Cyberbullying and cyber victimization are widespread problems that impair the physical and mental health of adolescents. To date, the impact of parental phubbing on adolescent cyberbullying and cyber victimization remains underexplored. The current study investigates the relationships between parental phubbing and adolescent cyberbullying and cyber victimization and whether these influence mechanisms work consistently. We recruited 1034 Chinese adolescents aged 12–15 years as a sample and constructed two moderated mediation models to evaluate the relationships among parental phubbing, social anxiety, self-control, cyberbullying, and cyber victimization. The results showed that (1) parental phubbing positively predicted adolescent cyberbullying and cyber victimization; (2) parental phubbing was associated with cyberbullying and cyber victimization among adolescents through the mediating effect of social anxiety; (3) the relationships between parental phubbing and adolescent cyberbullying and cyber victimization and the mediating effects of social anxiety were moderated by self-control; specifically all effects were significant at low self-control and vice versa. The research findings are conducive to informing the risk factors and mechanisms of adolescent cyber violence and further reveal the negative influence of parental phubbing on adolescent development.
摘要:
Early research has revealed distinct subgroups of cyberbullying victims. However, due to the limitations of traditional statistical methods, the characterization of features in the subgroups has been relatively limited, making it challenging to gain a relatively comprehensive understanding of different subgroup members. Decision trees and machine learning techniques offer notable advantages in addressing such issues. The primary aim of this study is to develop a high-performing classifier based on self-reported data from 814 middle school students to accurately predict cyberbullying victimization and uncover the most influential factors. On this basis, the study attempts to identify different subgroups of cyberbullying victims and their shared characteristics. The results indicated that the classification tree achieved a prediction accuracy of approximately 80% on the out-of-sample dataset. The results of permutation feature importance highlighted that the most prominent predictors were the victim's cyberbullying perpetration, followed by traditional relational victimization and depression. Further examination of the visual tree structure revealed subgroups of cyberbullying victims and their shared characteristics. The findings of this study have enriched the characteristics of different subgroups of cyberbullying victims, providing a better elucidation of the pathology of cyberbullying victimization and offering empirical evidence to facilitate the development of more targeted intervention strategies for various subgroups of cyberbullying victims.

摘要:
INTRODUCTION: Based on Social Identity Theory, this study hypothesized the parallel mediating roles of organizational commitment, and commitment to beneficiaries, in the relationship between relational job design and future volunteer intentions among episodic volunteers at a mega sport event. Perceived organizational support was tested as a moderator of this relationship. METHODS: Participants were 617 episodic volunteers (35.7% male and 64.3% female) at the 7th CISM Military World Games in Wuhan, China, who completed online questionnaires. RESULTS: Regression-based analyses indicated that relational job design positively predicted future volunteer intentions through organizational commitment. Although the results did not indicate a mediating role of commitment to beneficiaries, relational job design was still shown to positively predict commitment to beneficiaries. Furthermore, the association between relational job design and commitment to beneficiaries was moderated by perceived organizational support, such the effect was stronger when perceived organizational support was high. DISCUSSION: The results have practical implications for strengthening episodic volunteers' intentions to participate in future mega sport events, creating a legacy of volunteerism.

Digital game;Attitude;Gender difference;Meta -analysis
摘要:
With increasing research attention on digital game use for purposes of both entertainment and non-entertainment (e.g., education and learning, training), more empirical studies have been conducted to explore various issues related to digital games and their uses and applications. Given the background of gender difference related to technology in general, gender difference in attitudes toward digital game use has been a topic in many research studies. However, findings from previous research studies on gender difference in attitudes toward digital game use were inconsistent. Therefore, this meta-analysis was conducted to address this issue. From the research literature up to January of 2023, 41 studies were identified as useable, thus included in this study. From these 41 studies, the cumulative sample size was 35,348, and a total of 133 effect sizes were obtained. Using a three-level random-effects meta-analytic model, a significant effect size of gender difference in attitudes toward digital game use (g = 0.21, 95 % CI: [0.10, 0.32]) was found. Moderator analyses showed that study features of game type (entertainment games vs. serious games) and sub-types of attitudes (self-efficacy, affect, and belief) contributed to the heterogeneity of the results across the studies. The implications of the findings, and the limitations and future research considerations were discussed.

摘要:
Depression has been identified as a risk factor for suicide, yet limited evidence has elucidated the underlying pathways linking depression to subsequent suicide risk. Therefore, we aimed to examine the psychological mechanisms that connect depression to suicide risk via linguistic characteristics on Weibo. We sampled 487,251 posts from 3196 users who belong to the depression super-topic community (DSTC) on Sina Weibo as the depression group, and 357,939 posts from 5167 active users as the control group. We employed the double machine learning method (DML) to estimate the impact of depression on suicide risk, and interpreted the pathways from depression to suicide risk using SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) values and tree in-terpreters. The results indicated an 18% higher likelihood of suicide risk in the depression group compared to people without depression. The SHAP values further revealed that Exclusive (M = 0.029) was the most critical linguistic feature. Meanwhile, the three-depth tree interpreter illustrated that the high suicide risk subgroup of the depression group (N = 1196, CATE = 0.32 +/- 0.04, 95%CI [0.20, 0.43]) was predicted by higher usage of Exclusive (>0.59) and Health (>-0.10). DML revealed pathways linking depression to suicide risk. The visualized tree interpreter showed cognitive complexity and physical distress might be positively associated with suicide risk in depressed populations. These findings have invigorated further investigation to elucidate the relationship between depression and suicide risk. Understanding the underlying mechanisms serves as a basis for future research on suicide prevention and treatment for individuals with depression.
摘要:
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Greedy phenomena have dramatically increased in societies. However, despite the universality of greedy behaviour, empirical research on the causes of greed is scarce. In this context, we propose that perceived economic inequality may be an important factor influencing greed. Study 1 provided primary evidence of a positive relationship between perceived economic inequality and greed, based on data from a large‐scale social survey (CFPS 2018, <jats:italic>N</jats:italic> = 14,317). Employing well‐established questionnaires, Study 2A (<jats:italic>N</jats:italic> = 200) and Study 2B (<jats:italic>N</jats:italic> = 399) revealed that perceived economic inequality positively predicts greed, with relative deprivation playing a mediating role. Study 3A (<jats:italic>N</jats:italic> = 200) and Study 3B (<jats:italic>N</jats:italic> = 200) manipulated perceived economic inequality to provide causal evidence of its effects on greed and to replicate the mediating effect of relative deprivation. Finally, Study 4 (<jats:italic>N</jats:italic> = 372), using a blockage manipulation design, showed that the effect of perceived economic inequality on greed significantly decreases when relative deprivation is suppressed. In summary, the results of these six studies consistently suggest that perceived economic inequality positively affects greed and that this effect is mediated by relative deprivation.</jats:p>

摘要:
Background: Despite mounting evidence linking indoor and outdoor environments to eczema, the role of indoor and outdoor environmental pollutant(s) exposure during critical time window(s) on eczema remains unknown. Objective: To investigate the correlations between childhood eczema and itchy rashes and exposure to outdoor air pollution and the home environment. Methods: A combined cross-sectional and retrospective cohort study of 8689 kindergarten students was conducted. We collected information about each child 's health outcomes and home environment, as well as calculated individual exposure to air pollutants. Multiple logistic regression models were used to investigate the links between indoor and outdoor environments and childhood eczema and itchy rashes. Results: Childhood ever doctor-diagnosed eczema (DDE) was linked to NO 2 , CO, PM 2.5 , PM 2.5-10 and PM 10 exposure during the preconceptional, pregnant, and postnatal periods, with ORs (95 % CI) ranging from 1.06 (1.00 -1.13) to 1.21 (1.08 -1.37). Ever doctor-diagnosed itchy rash (DDIR) was associated with SO 2 , CO, PM 2.5 , PM 2.5-10 and PM 10 exposure during preconceptional and postnatal periods, with ORs (95 % CI) ranging from 1.11 (1.02 -1.20) to 1.31 (1.13 -1.52). Preconceptional outdoor air pollution was associated with a higher risk of ever, early, and late DDE and DDIR. Indoor smoke, renovation, and dampness were all associated with DDE and DDIR. Postnatal exposure to plants has been linked to both ever and early DDE. There was no link between indoor environments and late DDE. Furthermore, pregnancy has been identified as a critical indoor exposure time window for DDE and DDIR. Conclusions: Early-life exposure to outdoor air pollutants and indoor environments, particularly before birth, played important roles in childhood eczema.

摘要:
The field of room-temperature corrosion engineering has emerged as a promising avenue for the controlled synthesis of functional nano-materials, owing to its simplicity and potential for scalability. To date, room temperature corrosion engineering has been skillfully applied and successfully used to synthesizee transition metal (oxy)hydroxides. However, the synthesis of transition metal sulfides via room-temperature corrosion encounters challenges due to the low standard electrode potential and sluggish corrosion kinetics of S/Sn2-. Here, we have successfully initiated the oxidation behavior of S22- on Ni3Fe7 foam by adjusting the pH of the aqueous solution (containing (NH4)2SO4 and Na2S2), and subsequently synthesized low-crystallinity (Ni,Fe)xSy nanosheet arrays with significant lattice distortion and amorphous characteristics. Experimental studies combined with theoretical calculations have confirmed Fe within the (Ni,Fe)xSy structure functions as a highly active site while simultaneously expediting the lattice oxygen mechanism, thus yielding a remarkably efficient OER performance.

Digital game;Intervention;Mental disorder;Three-level meta-analysis
摘要:
With increasing research attention on game-based digital interventions for mental disorders, a number of studies have been conducted to explore the effectiveness of digital game-based interventions on mental disorders. However, findings from previous research were inconsistent. Thus, we conducted a comprehensive meta-analytic review of the effectiveness of game-based digital interventions for mental disorders. By searching the articles in databases, we identified 53 studies in which 2433 participants were involved, and 282 effect sizes were extracted. Among the 53 studies, 14 employed within-group (pre/post) designs, and the remaining 39 utilized controlled trial designs. Using a three-level random-effects meta-analytic model, a medium effect size of game-based digital interventions (g=0.47, 95% CI: 0.33, 0.61) was revealed in the controlled trial designs and a close-to-medium effect size (g=0.45, 95% CI: 0.32, 0.58) was found in the within-group (pre/post) designs, indicating close-to-medium-sized efficacy of game-based digital interventions for mental disorders. Moderator analyses showed that age in the controlled trial designs had contributed to the heterogeneity in previous studies, suggesting that interventions might be more effective for the elderly. However, given that only a limited number of studies were focused on the elderly, more studies with older participants should be conducted in the future to provide more robust evidence and explore the mechanisms of how digital gaming interventions can be more effective in improving mental disorders symptoms.
摘要:
The prevalence of depression among sexual minority women is a significant concern, yet no prior research has conducted a network analysis of depressive symptoms in this population. This is the first study to address this gap by examining the network structure of depressive symptoms in Chinese sexual minority women during the COVID-19 pandemic, considering both sexual orientation and gender expression as part of an intra-group perspective. 1420 Chinese sexual minority women completed the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depressive Symptoms (CES-D). Network analysis was employed to calculate edge and centrality measures, and the network structures of lesbians and bisexual women were compared based on sexual orientation and of femme, androgyny, and butch based on gender expression. Network analysis revealed that the core depressive symptoms of Chinese sexual minority women are "Felt depressed," "Fatigue," "Sad," and "Failure." Although no significant differences were found in the network structure and global strength of depressive symptoms between different sexual orientations and gender expressions, there were significant differences in the core symptoms. This study suggests the unique associations between depressive symptoms and social and historical contexts among sexual minority women and emphasizes the importance of considering these differences when providing targeted mental health interventions.

摘要:
Research Findings: Parental supervision, parental risk perception, and parental risk attitudes constitute an important parenting environment for the development of young children. To examine the mechanisms of Chinese parenting environment on young children's risk-taking behaviors, this study first established a four-factor model and surveyed 497 parents of preschoolers. The results indicated that: (1) Chinese young children's risk-taking was at moderately low level, and parental risk perceptions, parental attitudes and parental supervision were at moderately high level; (2) parental supervision completely mediated the relationship from parental risk perception to children's risk-taking behavior (beta = -0.139,95%CI [-0.267, -0.062], p < .001); (3) parental supervision partially mediated the relationship from parental risk attitudes to children's risk-taking behavior (beta = -0.068, 95%CI [-0.162, -0.027], p < .001); (4) this mediation model remained stable cross genders of children (triangle chi(2) = 12.022, p = .799). Practice or Policy: The findings indicated that sufficient support and guidance for parenting should be provided to improve parental risk perceptions, attitudes and supervision which in turn create an environment safe and appropriate for risk-taking of Chinese young children.
