This study examined behavioral determinants of exercise adherence and tested the mediating role of self-efficacy based on the IMB framework. Methods A c…
The Spillover Effect of Driving Restrictions on Intercity Travel
For intercity travel, can the variety of available modes of transportation affect travelers' destination choice? In this paper, I address this question by studying the spillover effect of driving restrictions, an environmental policy that keeps cars off the street largely on the basis of the last digit of the license plate number. Specifically, this paper evaluates the effects of driving restrictions enacted in 42 cities across six adjacent Chine…
Why do green consumers engage in excessive consumption? The role of moral licensing and cognitive bias
Green consumption is widely promoted for its environmental benefits; however, it may also lead to unintended and even counterproductive ecological outcomes. Due to the altruistic social symbolism of green consumption and consumers' cognitive misunderstandings, promoting green consumption may trigger excessive consumption, a phenomenon often referred to as the green consumption trap. Based on the green consumption licensing effect (GCLE) and envir…
Ingredients of “a confusing cocktail”: Testing explanations for public opinions of AI
Rhizosphere soil characteristics at different stand ages affect on plant organs’ nutrient distribution of Dendrocalamus giganteus forests following recovery of half-clump harvesting
The traditional harvesting practice for bamboo forests is selective cutting, which targets culms older than four years. In order to reduce labor and harvesting costs, new methods have been proposed in recent years, including strip harvesting for monopodial bamboos and clump harvesting for sympodial bamboos. These approaches not only lower management inputs but also emphasize the integrity and sustainability of bamboo forest ecosystems by retainin…
A media effects typology of media literacy interventions
