The “two-hit” storm
Following the COVID-19 pandemic, the clinical patterns of pediatric respiratory infections have undergone significant changes, with increasing attention on the immunological imprint left by Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC), commonly known as Long COVID. A perplexing clinical phenomenon has been observed: some children with a history of Long COVID exhibit a disproportionately severe inflammatory response and extensive lung injury…
Benefit Appeals in Livestreaming E-Commerce
Benefit appeals represent a commonly used advertising tactic for improving customer response, yet their effectiveness in multimedia livestreaming e-commerce remains unverified. To address this issue, we develop a multi-study framework to investigate the effectiveness of benefit appeals with livestreaming video data and corresponding TikTok sales data. In Study 1, we examine the correlational relationships between benefit appeals and sales with tw…
Fine-Grained Emotion Comprehension
The rapid advancement of deep learning and the exponential growth of multimodal data have led to increased attention on multimodal emotion analysis and comprehension in affect computing. While existing multimodal works have achieved notable results in emotion recognition, several challenges remain. First, the scarcity of public large-scale multimodal emotion datasets is attributed to the high cost of manual annotation and the subjectivity of hand…
Exercise participation and health promotion in active seniors in aging societies
Introduction: As populations age worldwide, promoting health and autonomy in later life has become a shared policy imperative. However, little is known about how concurrent lifestyle behaviors among physically active seniors influence their perceived health outcomes. Methods: Using data from the 2023 National Survey on Physical Activity, this study analyzed 1,729 physically active older adults in South Korea. Descriptive statistics, independent t…
AI in the Classroom
This study examines GPT usage in university-level programming education, focusing on patterns and correlations in students’ learning behaviors. A survey of 438 students from four universities was conducted to analyze their adoption of AI, learning dispositions, and behavioral patterns. The research aimed to understand the current state of GPT adoption and the connection between student learning approaches and their use of these technologies. Find…
A novel, human-in-the-loop computational grounded theory framework for big social data
The availability of big data has significantly influenced the possibilities and methodological choices for conducting large-scale behavioural and social science research. In the context of qualitative data analysis, a major challenge is that conventional methods require intensive manual labour and are often impractical to apply to large datasets. One effective way to address this issue is by integrating emerging computational methods to overcome …
When and How Artificial Intelligence Augments Employee Creativity
Can artificial intelligence (AI) assist human employees in increasing employee creativity? Drawing on research on AI–human collaboration, job design, and employee creativity, we examine AI assistance in the form of a sequential division of labor within organizations: in a task, AI handles the initial portion, which is well-codified and repetitive, and employees focus on the subsequent portion, involving higher-level problem-solving. First, we pro…
Empathetic Response Generation With Self and Other-Imagine Graph
Empathy, an essential quality in daily human conversations, plays a crucial role in dialogue systems. In recent years, there has been a surge of interest among researchers in developing empathetic response generation. However, existing methods often ignore the high-level process of generating empathy-imagination, which involves consciously putting oneself in the other person's shoes during a conversation. To solve this critical problem, we propos…

Inter-school collaboration leaders’ behaviors and underlying leadership styles
An Empirical Study of User Engagement in Influencer Marketing on Weibo and WeChat
Understanding social media users’ engagement is one of the most crucial steps in a successful deployment of an influencer marketing campaign. On mainstream social media platforms, opinion leaders are the major channels to spread opinions and media content to a large population of consumers. Therefore, analyzing how users respond to the blogs of opinion leaders lies at the core of understanding user engagement in social media. In this article, to …
The relationship between social support and depression among HIV-positive men who have sex with men in China
Introduction: HIV and mental health problems are a global syndemic. One key issue is that the significant mental health problems among people vulnerable to acquiring or living with HIV have not been fully addressed. Access to social support has been one of the biggest challenges for HIV-positive men who have sex with men (HIV+ MSM). Lower social support has been linked to more severe depression symptoms. However, the mechanisms underlying the ass…
Family social and cultural capital
Using a sample of 11,313 students in Grades 7 and 9 from the China Education Panel Survey, this study examines the effects of family social capital and family cultural capital on adolescents’ educational outcomes in the areas of academic effort, educational aspiration, and academic achievement. The results from structural equation modeling analyses showed that family social capital and family cultural capital had significant positive associations…
Fostering Students’ Well-Being
Well-being has become extensively viewed as apprehension for administrations in the last decades and schools have been progressively realized as locations for encouraging well-being which is a considerable development in inquiries on mediations connected to learner well-being. In this way, the function of teachers has got specific consideration regarding students’ well-being, given the merits of teacher-student interactions. High-quality educator…
Prevalence of SOEs and intergenerational income persistence
This paper evaluates the impact of state‐owned enterprises (SOEs) on intergenerational income persistence in China. Using population census, we first estimate the intergenerational income elasticities (IGEs) across Chinese prefecture‐level cities. We then find that the prevalence of SOEs in a city is negatively associated with its IGE. The estimation using the geographic variation in SOEs created by the ‘156 Projects’ as an instrumental variable …

Evaluation of Multiradar Multisensor and Stage IV Quantitative Precipitation Estimates during Hurricane Harvey
Radar-based quantitative precipitation estimate (QPE) serves as input for flood forecasting, and its importance gets magnified during catastrophic storms, e.g., Hurricane Harvey in 2017. The record-breaking rainfall from Hurricane Harvey covered vast spatial extents and lasted for a 5-day period, providing a unique chance for evaluating radar errors, especially their spatiotemporal dependence. Using the rainfall data of Hurricane Harvey, the auth…
Self-efficacy and interest in STEM subjects as predictors of the STEM gender gap in the US
Covariance Matrix Estimation via Network Structure
In this article, we employ a regression formulation to estimate the high-dimensional covariance matrix for a given network structure. Using prior information contained in the network relationships, we model the covariance as a polynomial function of the symmetric adjacency matrix. Accordingly, the problem of estimating a high-dimensional covariance matrix is converted to one of estimating low dimensional coefficients of the polynomial regression …

Differences in Career Decision-Making Profiles Between American and Chinese University Students
The current research examined differences in career decision-making profiles (CDMP) between American and Chinese university students, as well as the mediating mechanisms possibly underlying these cultural differences. The results of a survey among American ( n = 929) and Chinese ( n = 945) undergraduates showed that Chinese participants scored significantly higher on consulting with others, desire to please others, willingness to compromise, depe…
