摘要:
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the current study was to explore the relationship between online and offline health information-seeking behaviors, as antecedents and consequences, and health anxiety and related belief factors in rural residents. METHODS: Based on the ABC theory of emotions (ABC model), this study developed two theoretical models of the association between health anxiety and health information-seeking behavior: Placing health information-seeking behavior (both online and offline) as an outcome and antecedent, respectively, and setting three belief factors of the perceived health threat, intolerance of uncertainty, and catastrophic misinterpretations. We collected 730 self-reported data points from 20 June to 5 July 2022 for rural residents in China and empirically tested the research model and hypotheses using partial least squares-based structural equation modeling. RESULTS: The perceived health threat and intolerance of uncertainty are significant motivators of health anxiety, and health anxiety has a direct beneficial effect on both online and offline health information-seeking behaviors. Health anxiety is influenced either directly or indirectly by catastrophic misinterpretations resulting from online health information-seeking, while offline health information-seeking behavior does not contribute as strongly to health anxiety directly but mainly reinforces it through the mediating influence of catastrophic misinterpretations. CONCLUSIONS: Rural residents' health anxiety promotes their online and offline health information behaviors. And both their online and offline health information-seeking behaviors may promote health anxiety directly and through catastrophic misinterpretations. Comparing the two, online health information-seeking behaviors primarily exacerbate health anxiety through direct effects, whereas offline health information-seeking behaviors primarily affect health anxiety through catastrophic misinterpretations. We provide suggested guidelines for alleviating health anxiety and regulating health information behaviors among rural residents.

摘要:
Recently, graph convolutional networks (GCNs) play a critical role in skeleton-based human action recognition. However, most GCN-based methods still have two main limitations: (1) The semantic-level adjacency matrix of the skeleton graph is difficult to be manually defined, which restricts the perception field of GCN and limits its ability to extract the spatial–temporal features. (2) The velocity information of human body joints cannot be efficiently used and fully exploited by GCN, because GCN does not represent the correlation between the velocity vectors explicitly. To address these issues, we propose a graph-aware transformer (GAT), which can make full use of the velocity information and learn discriminative spatial–temporal motion features from the sequence of the skeleton graphs in a data-driven way. Besides, similar to the GCN-based model, our GAT also considers the prior structures of the human body including the link-aware structure and the part-aware structure. Extensive experiments on three large-scale datasets, i.e., NTU-RGB+D 60, NTU-RGB+D 120, and Kinetics-Skeleton, demonstrated that the proposed GAT obtains significant improvement compared to the GCN-based baseline for skeleton action recognition.
