Prediction of depressive symptoms in middle-aged and older adult hospitalized patients with chronic diseases
Objective This cross-sectional study has dual objectives: to investigate the predictive value of machine learning (ML) for the prevalence of depressive symptoms in middle-aged and older adult hospitalized patients with chronic diseases, and to identify significant factors influencing depressive symptoms in this population. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among 618 hospitalized middle-aged and older adult patients with chronic diseas…
Using a Robust Moderated Mediation Approach to Understand Associations Between Classroom Quality, Mindset Beliefs, Engagement, and Student Achievement in Math and Science
Using a robust moderated mediation approach with a socioeconomically diverse sample of 1,532 adolescents(M age = 14.61 years; 51% female; 68% White, 28% Black; 48% economically disadvantaged), this study tested whether growth mindset and behavioral engagement mediated the link between classroom quality and math and science achievement and whether effects varied by race or socioeconomic status. Student engagement, but not mindset, significantly me…
How growth mindset shapes math achievement
Although the positive role of a growth mindset in adolescent math learning is widely recognized, little is known about the moderating role of classroom practices, the mediating role of engagement, or developmental patterns in these relations. One thousand three hundred thirty adolescents in Grades 8, 10, and 12 attending 14 U.S. urban public schools ( M age = 15.50, SD age = 1.56; 54% female; 69% White, 26% Black; 49% low-income) participated in …

An introduction to causal mediation analysis
Causal mediation analysis has gained increasing attention in recent years. This article guides empirical researchers through the concepts and challenges of causal mediation analysis. I first clarify the difference between traditional and causal mediation analysis and highlight the importance of adjusting for the treatment-by-mediator interaction and confounders of the treatment–mediator, treatment–outcome, and mediator–outcome relationships. I th…
Development of the core competency-based entrustable professional activities for Master of Nursing Specialist (MNS) graduates in China
BACKGROUND: Advanced nursing practice and education with a Master's degree as the necessary preparation, is viewed as a major strategy to cultivate senior nursing talents. Competencies are central to advanced nursing practice and education, but how can competencies be measured? Entrustable professional activities (EPAs) have been used widely in medicine as a practical approach for bridging the gaps between competency and clinical practice. Consid…

Potential scale of industrial outputs of the bronze bell casting industry in 500 BCE China
The potential scale of industrial outputs in the ancient world is often underestimated in current archaeological studies due to the lack of surviving artifacts for validation of the production scale. However, production traces left on extant artifacts can help us reconstruct production methods, and thus reveal the potential scale of production outputs of certain industries, even although there may not be a sufficient number of existing artifacts …
Estimation and sensitivity analysis for causal decomposition in health disparity research
In the field of disparities research, there has been growing interest in developing a counterfactual-based decomposition analysis to identify underlying mediating mechanisms that help reduce disparities in populations. Despite rapid development in the area, most prior studies have been limited to regression-based methods, undermining the possibility of addressing complex models with multiple mediators and/or heterogeneous effects. We propose a no…

More Than Growth Mindset
This article used self-regulated learning as a theoretical lens to examine the individual and interactive associations between a growth mindset and metacognition on math engagement for adolescent students from socioeconomically disadvantaged schools. Across three longitudinal studies with 207, 897, and 2,325 11- to 15-year-old adolescents, students’ beliefs that intelligence is malleable and capable of growth over time only predicted higher math …
Skill, Thrill, and Will
Maintaining learning engagement throughout adolescence is critical for long-term academic success. This research sought to understand the role of metacognition and motivation in predicting adolescents' engagement in math learning over time. In two longitudinal studies with 2,325 and 207 adolescents (ages 11–15), metacognitive skills, interest, and self-control each uniquely predicted math engagement. Additionally, metacognitive skills worked with…
Unpacking Complex Mediation Mechanisms and Their Heterogeneity Between Sites in a Job Corps Evaluation
This study aims to test the theory underlying Job Corps, one of the largest education and training programs in the U.S. serving disadvantaged youth. Central to the program are vocational training and general education that serve as two concurrent mediators transmitting the program impact on earnings. To distinguish the relative contribution of each, we develop methods for decomposing the Job Corps impact on earnings into an indirect effect transm…
Are more traditional employees less innovative? Colleagues' and leaders' influences matter
We examined how the cultural value orientation of employees' traditionality influences their innovative behaviors in a group context. Our belief was that the behavioral influence of traditionality on individual innovation would be contingent upon group traditionality and transformational leadership, as well as the combined moderating effect of these two variables. Participants were 282 employees and their 36 group leaders in a large telecommunica…
How Far Can Rural Family Support for the Elderly Go
Providing for the elderly is a function of the family tradition. In aChina, a social security system has been set up only in the cities, and three-fourths of the elderly, who live in the rural areas, are almost entirely dependent on family support. Hence, family support for the elderly constitutes the main channel of eldercare in China. The Law of the Peoples Republic of China on Protecting the Rights and Interests of Elderly, passed in 1996, aff…
