Anti-breast cancer effects of the Xingxiao Pill are associated with inhibition of the ErbB3/PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, modulation of amino acid metabolism, and promotion of apoptosis
Voice of the Region
Accent, as a regional linguistic variant, influences consumer attitudes and decisions. However, it remains unclear whether tourists react more positively to salespersons with (vs. without) local accents when purchasing souvenirs. Drawing on signaling theory, we examine whether, how, and when a salesperson’s local accent affects tourists’ purchase behavior for souvenirs. Through six scenario-based experiments and one field experiment, our findings…

The Smaller You in a Bigger World
As the world is becoming a more connected and interdependent place, a fast growing literature has examined the effects of foreign experiences on cognitive and psychological outcomes. The current research seeks to explore the relationship between living abroad and intellectual humility. To this end, we conducted four methodologically diverse studies ( N = 643) using multiple populations and complementary measures of intellectual humility. In Study…
Marvel and Machine
Artificial Intelligence (AI), a burgeoning and pervasive technological force, is profoundly reshaping the global landscape. Given the extensive integration of AI into the fabric of society, it is important to understand the underpinnings of public acceptance of this technological wave. Based on the findings that the experiences of awe induce a perception of the self as insignificant and a recognition of one’s limitation, we hypothesized that expo…

To Be a Tough Guy
It’s Time to Move
Linguistic evidence indicates that many languages metaphorically construct time through spatial experiences and sensorimotor schemas. This intricate association of human movements with temporal cognition engenders a seminal question: Can our bodily motions modulate our mental representations of time? In pursuit of this query, we conducted two experimental studies to probe how passive bodily movements influence temporal cognition in Mandarin-speak…
The mouth of God
Numerous studies have indicated that religious systems have a profound impact on individuals' perceptions, emotions, and cognitive processes. The current research investigates the effects of religious upbringing and training on story recall in Tibetan Buddhists, specifically focusing on the Kagyu and Nyingma traditions. Based on the observation that the lineage of the Kagyu emphasizes a continuity of oral instructions passed on from master to stu…

Paws and Protocols
Previous research has demonstrated that exposure to dogs (or cats) can evoke stereotypical temperaments and behaviors associated with these pet species, thereby activating a promotion-focused or prevention-focused motivational mindset. Although the effects of pet exposure on consumer judgments and behaviors have been established, the health consequences of these effects remain unclear. Evidence indicates that promotion-focused individuals tend to…
Walking the Ambiguous Path
Protecting Natural Resources, Empowering Women
Women in Sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA) confront institutionalized marginalization in the context of Natural Resource Protection (NRP) where patriarchal land tenure systems, exclusionary conservation institutions, and gendered livelihood dependencies perpetuate their marginalization. These barriers exacerbate ecological vulnerability while denying women agency over the resources vital to their survival. Analyzing data from 37 SSA nations from 2006 to 2…
Flowing With the Syntax
Syntactic priming is a linguistic phenomenon where the exposure to a specific grammatical structure increases the likelihood that the same structure will be used in subsequent language production. Previous research has shown that these syntactic processes are influenced by a broad range of linguistic, cognitive, and social factors. In the present research, we focused on the role of religious systems in shaping syntactic priming in dialog. Based o…
Blind Love, Risky Romance
Love and risk are often intricately intertwined within linguistic and cultural conventions. This study experimentally tested the hypothesis that risk‐taking attitudes and behaviors are systematically influenced by romantic primes. To evaluate our theoretical framework, we conducted four complementary experiments utilizing various priming techniques (lexical cues, advertisements, and storytelling), diverse participant populations (students and gen…
A neural geometry approach comprehensively explains apparently conflicting models of visual perceptual learning
Visual perceptual learning (VPL), defined as long-term improvement in a visual task, is considered a crucial tool for elucidating underlying visual and brain plasticity. Previous studies have proposed several neural models of VPL, including changes in neural tuning or in noise correlations. Here, to adjudicate different models, we propose that all neural changes at single units can be conceptualized as geometric transformations of population resp…

Move with the Flow
The ego-moving perspective and the time-moving perspective are the two common metaphors used to spatially represent time. The former describes time as a stationary object and individuals travel through it. Conversely, under the time-moving perspective, individuals remain stationary while time moves toward them. Evidence suggests that religious systems have specific effects on the construal of temporal succession along the sagittal axis. The prese…

Time will tell
According to the Temporal Focus Hypothesis (TFH), people’s implicit spatial conceptions are shaped by their temporal focus. Whereas previous studies have demonstrated that people’s cultural or individual differences related to certain temporal focus may influence their spatializations of time, we focus on temporal landmarks as potential additional influences on people’s space-time mappings. In Experiment 1, we investigated how personally-related …
One country, two cultures
What determines how people implicitly associate the “past” and “future” with “front” and “back”? According to the Temporal Focus Hypothesis (TFH), people's cultural attitudes toward time influence their implicit space–time mappings. However, previous research mainly used cross‐cultural comparison in which the cultures compared differ not only in attentional focus on temporal events, but may also differ in other cultural values. Thus, the specific…
Time on hands
The present study investigates deliberate and spontaneous temporal gestures in Mandarin speakers. The results of our analysis show that when asked to gesture about past and future events deliberately (Study 1), Mandarin speakers tend to mimic space-time mappings in their spoken metaphors or graphic conventions for time in Chinese culture, including sagittal mappings (front/past, back/future), vertical mappings (up/past, down/future), and lateral …
God, Can I Give Up
Previous research has indicated that religiosity and engagement in faith practices are associated with increased task persistence. However, in this study, we sought to challenge this long-standing assumption by demonstrating that priming God-related concepts can actually lead to reduced task persistence in Taoism, a religion emphasizing passivity, calmness, and inaction. To investigate this theoretical perspective, we conducted two experimental s…
Life is either a daring adventure, or it is boring
Findings from correlational research suggest that people more likely to take risk during COVID‐19. However, little is known about the causal role of the coronavirus threat in the emergence of risk taking behaviors. Here, we conducted three diverse studies involving questionnaire‐based responses and actual measures of risk‐taking behavior across nonmoral and immoral domains. In support of our theoretical perspective, Experiment 1 revealed that par…
A clearer sense of self
Because of the quickening pace of globalisation, recent years have witnessed a rise of bilingualism throughout the world. Prior research has documented a range of cognitive benefits and costs of being bilingual. The current work uncovers another potential positive side of being bilingual: the control of overconfidence in peer-comparison problems. Based on previous findings that bilingualism is positively related to enhanced cognitive functions, w…
Clause alignment for Hong Kong legal texts
In this paper we report on our recent work in clause alignment for English-Chinese bilingual legal texts using available lexical resources including a bilingual legal glossary and a bilingual dictionary, for the purpose of acquiring examples at various linguistic levels for example-based machine translation. We present our formulation of an appropriate measure for the similarity of a candidate pair of clauses with respect to matched lexical items…
Higher empathy predicts more manual pointing in Tibetan people
Previous research has suggested a link between levels of empathic engagement and the frequency and saliency of certain gestural forms, notably conduit and palm-revealing gestures. The present research investigates if these patterns are also observable in the use of pointing gestures within Tibetan communities, an underrepresented population in linguistics and cognitive science studies. To address this query, we implemented a referential communica…
Gender differences in the associations between parental phubbing, fear of missing out, and social networking site addiction
Personality in your hands
The cognitive science literature reports significant cultural variation in pointing gesture repertoires. It is unknown, however, if individual differences in personality traits can influence pointing preferences within a single culture. Here, we sought to examine how extraversion is associated with people’s manual and non-manual pointing preferences. In a referential communication task, speakers were required to describe locations and objects on …

Fast and accurate short read alignment with Burrows–Wheeler transform
Motivation: The enormous amount of short reads generated by the new DNA sequencing technologies call for the development of fast and accurate read alignment programs. A first generation of hash table-based methods has been developed, including MAQ, which is accurate, feature rich and fast enough to align short reads from a single individual. However, MAQ does not support gapped alignment for single-end reads, which makes it unsuitable for alignme…
The Sequence Alignment/Map format and SAMtools
The Sequence Alignment/Map (SAM) format is a generic alignment format for storing read alignments against reference sequences, supporting short and long reads (up to 128 Mbp) produced by different sequencing platforms. It is flexible in style, compact in size, efficient in random access and is the format in which alignments from the 1000 Genomes Project are released. SAMtools implements various utilities for post-processing alignments in the SAM …
Genetic history of an archaic hominin group from Denisova Cave in Siberia
Using DNA extracted from a finger bone found in Denisova Cave in southern Siberia, we have sequenced the genome of an archaic hominin to about 1.9-fold coverage. This individual is from a group that shares a common origin with Neanderthals. This population was not involved in the putative gene flow from Neanderthals into Eurasians; however, the data suggest that it contributed 4–6% of its genetic material to the genomes of present-day Melanesians…
A Draft Sequence of the Neandertal Genome
Neandertals, the closest evolutionary relatives of present-day humans, lived in large parts of Europe and western Asia before disappearing 30,000 years ago. We present a draft sequence of the Neandertal genome composed of more than 4 billion nucleotides from three individuals. Comparisons of the Neandertal genome to the genomes of five present-day humans from different parts of the world identify a number of genomic regions that may have been aff…

A future-minded lark in the morning
According to the Temporal Focus Hypothesis (TFH), space–time mappings in people’s minds are shaped by their attentional focus. Previous research has shown that numerous cultural and individual factors underpinning temporal focus may contribute to the direction of space–time mappings in people’s mental models. However, the role of time of day in shaping spatial conceptions of time has not been investigated. In a series of three experiments, Chines…
时间焦点对前后方向上内隐时空映射的影响——来自汉族和羌族的证据
According to the Conceptual Metaphor Theory (CMT), metaphors allow people to rely on concrete, familiar knowledge such as spatial experience to understand abstract concepts such as time. For example, many languages throughout the world tend to associate the front side of space with the future and the back side with the past. Abundant evidence has shown that people think about time according to the space-time mappings in their speech. However, rec…
