Where do we go from here? Evaluating the effectiveness of a nursing Mooc over six years
Massive open online courses (MOOCs) have transformed global education, yet their long-term effectiveness and evolving learner engagement remain underexplored. This study aims to comprehensively evaluate a nursing MOOC over six years, examining learner engagement, identifying distinct learner profiles, and assessing changes across different developmental stages to inform future MOOC design. A retrospective study was conducted on 4171 completers of…

Parental mediation patterns and children's digital resilience in rural China: A latent profile analysis
Recent scholarship has highlighted a shift from risk avoidance to emphasizing children's active role in coping with online challenges. However, research on such processes remains scarce. This study adopted a person‐centered approach to examine how different parental mediation patterns influence rural children's digital resilience (DR), considering children's responses as key mechanisms shaping this relationship. Using survey data from 713 rural c…

Does governance and energy spur FDI inflows in Malaysia
Numerous studies have examined FDI determinants in Malaysia but the influence of governance quality and energy security remained insufficiently explored. Therefore, this study empirically evaluates the impact of governance quality and energy security, alongside conventional economic variables, on FDI inflows in Malaysia. Using time series data from 1970 to 2022 and employing Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares (D-OLS) and Fully Modified Ordinary Least…
The age-based digital divides in China: Trends and socioeconomic differentials (2010–2020)
Mechanism of attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control influence the green development behavior of construction enterprises
The green development behavior of construction enterprises is an environmental behavior that contributes evidence from construction enterprises to the field of resource recycling and environmental protection. Revealing the mechanism of green development behavior of construction enterprises has become the key to guide construction enterprises to adopt green development behavior and improve the level of green development. However, existing studies …

Learning and daily life integration: A qualitative analysis of the behaviors, characteristics, and logic of mobile learning among older adults
Older adults’ m-learning activities have attracted the attention of scholars because of the heterogeneity of older adults and ever-changing learning needs triggered by technology development. However, a profound division remains between the research framework of m-learning for young people and that for older adults. This research explores the m-learning experience of older adults through qualitative interviews and data analysis from the construct…
How Does Social Class Affect Need for Structure during the Covid-19 Pandemic? A Moderated Mediating Model Analysis
The COVID-19 pandemic is profoundly affecting the minds and behaviors of people worldwide. This study investigated the differences in the need for structure among people from different social classes and the psychological mechanisms underlying this need, as well as the moderating effect of the threat posed by the pandemic. Using data collected from non-student adults in China, we found that the lower an individual's social class, the lower their …
Parental Mediation and Adolescents’ Internet Use: The Moderating Role of Parenting Style
Differential effects of traditional and social media use on Covid-19 preventive behaviors: The mediating role of risk and efficacy perceptions
The study explored how traditional and social media use produced various cognitive responses toward COVID-19, including perceived severity, susceptibility, and efficacy, and direct and indirect facilitation of COVID-19 preventive behaviors. We tested the hypotheses on data collected from 433 university students in Wuhan, China, using structural equation modeling. We found that traditional media enhanced engagement for preventive behaviors both di…
Psychological and Contextual Predictors of Online Video Use: A Latent Profile Analysis
The purpose of this exploratory study is to (i) empirically determine homogeneous classes of online video users based on variables involving three dimensions of video usage behaviors (viewing, interacting, and producing) by Latent Profile Analysis; (ii) examine how psychological characteristics and contextual factors predict different patterns of online video use. By analyzing the first-hand online survey data involving 598 valid responses, we di…

How does internet usage affect the credit consumption among Chinese college students? A mediation model of social comparison and materialism
Purpose The use of consumer credit by Chinese citizens has risen rapidly in the Internet era. The purpose of this paper is to predict a mechanism for credit consumption through Internet usage, with social comparison and materialism as mediators. Four types of Internet usage (social use, entertainment use, informational use, and online shopping) were identified to investigate whether different types of Internet usage influence credit consumption d…
Are left-behind children more likely to be bullied? Empirical evidence from rural schools in Shaanxi province
School bullying has been recognized as a serious social issue associated with a range of short- and long-term negative consequences for both perpetrators and victims. Using data from the 2017 Survey of Rural Children in Shaanxi Province of China, this study investigated the impact of parental migration on children’s victimization from bullying. Our results show that left-behind children (LBC) are indeed more likely to be bullied; most importantly…
Rationing of Nursing Care and Its Relationship with Nurse Staffing and Patient Outcomes: The Mediation Effect Tested by Structural Equation Modeling
Purpose : The purpose of this study is to test the mediation effect of rationing of nursing care (RONC) and the relationship this has between nurse staffing and patient outcomes. Methods : The analytic sample included 7802 nurse surveys and 5430 patient surveys. Three patient outcome indicators, nurse staffing, RONC, and confounding factors were considered in the model pathways. Results : The hypothesized model was shown to be statistically signi…
Traditional Chinese medicine Ze-Qi-Tang formula inhibit growth of non-small-cell lung cancer cells through the p53 pathway
Bayesian Comparison of Alternative Graded Response Models for Performance Assessment Applications
This study examined the relative effectiveness of Bayesian model comparison methods in selecting an appropriate graded response (GR) model for performance assessment applications. Three popular methods were considered: deviance information criterion (DIC), conditional predictive ordinate (CPO), and posterior predictive model checking (PPMC). Using these methods, several alternative GR models were compared with Samejima’s unidimensional GR model, …
