  • Striking the Balance: How Variability Shapes Retrieval Practice and Worked Examples for Transfer Learning

    Open Access•Meng Cao, Paulo F Carvalho•ARTICLE•Educational Psychology Review•2026

    The ability to generalize and apply knowledge to new situations is the hallmark of effective learning. There are multiple ways to improve learning towards generalization. Retrieval practice and worked examples have both been shown to improve learning, retention, and generalization. The literature on category learning also suggests that exposure to more varied examples, rather than the same example repeatedly, improves generalization. However, whi…

  • Rethinking Belief and Tradition: How Young People Construct Individual Meaning in the Internet Era

    Open Access•Meng Cao•ARTICLE•Religions•2026

    During China’s social transformation, the spiritual life of young people exhibits a dual tendency toward secularisation and consumerization. While traditional institutional religion continues to wane, a consumption-based religiosity has surfaced, marking a shift from collective, class-based subcultural expressions to post-subcultural practices centred on individual affect, meaning bricolage, and fluid identities. Through a comparative analysis of…

  • Remaking Local Knowledge: The Reinterpretation of Morality Through Religious Teachings and Folklore

    Open Access•Meng Cao•ARTICLE•Religions•2024•References: 16

    Popular religion in China has been very active ever since the late 1970s, with the restoration of temples and statues, a rising numbers of believers, and people's increasing enthusiasm for religious activities. Folklore, rituals and legends are also 'borrowed' to reinvent tradition to fit in the strand of intangible cultural heritage. Therefore, seemingly reviving religions are also going through the process of de-religionization. Based on my eth…

  • The consumption of ritual and the changing values of filial piety in ancestor worship

    Open Access•Meng Cao•ARTICLE•The Australian Journal of…•2023

    Ancestor worship is regarded as the key element of the Han people's belief system across most of China. However, the rituals pertaining to death, such as in funerals and annual ancestor worship, vary from place to place. For decades, the state has made tremendous efforts to reform and standardise funerals consistent with its path to modernization by insisting on more socialist practices rather than those that are perceived as ‘superstitious’ and …

  • The Flowing of the Sacred Space: How Reciprocal Exchanges with Deities Are Affected by Urbanization

    Open Access•Meng Cao•ARTICLE•Religions•2023•Cited by: 1•References: 20

    Although there is a consensus on religious revival in China, it must be noted that popular religion and institutional religions such as Buddhism and Daoism adopt different strategies to survive the state's regulations. Many temples that used to facilitate the worship of local deities have to establish some form of intangible cultural heritage or emphasize the deity's history and folklore to de-religionize. During this process, a temple may earn i…

  • Unfixed Movement Route Model, Non-Overcrowding and Social Distancing Reduce the Spread of Covid-19 in Sporting Facilities

    Open Access•Bote Qi, Jingwang Tan et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2021

    Localized outbreaks of COVID-19 have been reported in sporting facilities. This study used the Agent-based Modeling (ABM) method to analyze the transmission rate of COVID-19 in different sporting models, sporting spaces per capita, and situations of gathering, which contributes to understanding how COVID-19 transmits in sports facilities. The simulation results show that the transmission rate of COVID-19 was higher under the Fixed Movement Route …

  • Identification of a Rare PSEN1 Mutation (Thr119Ile) in Late-Onset Alzheimer’s Disease With Early Presentation of Behavioral Disturbance

    Open Access•Shouzi Zhang, Xiang Li et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Psychiatry•2020

    Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of neurodegenerative dementia. In this study, whole genome sequencing identifies one rare and likely pathogenic mutation in the presenilin 1 (PSEN1) gene (c.356C > T, p.T119I) associated with a frontal variant of AD. Affected individuals in the kindred developed late-onset cognitive decline accompanied with early presentation of psychiatric symptoms. Positive amyloid PiB PET tracing suggested prese…

  • Benzene Exposure Alters Expression of Enzymes Involved in Fatty Acid β-Oxidation in Male C3H/He Mice

    Open Access•Rongli Sun, Meng Cao et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2016

    Benzene is a well-known hematotoxic carcinogen that can cause leukemia and a variety of blood disorders. Our previous study indicated that benzene disturbs levels of metabolites in the fatty acid β-oxidation (FAO) pathway, which is crucial for the maintenance and function of hematopoietic and leukemic cells. The present research aims to investigate the effects of benzene on changes in the expression of key enzymes in the FAO pathway in male C3H/H…

  • Exploring an Ecologically Sustainable Scheme for Landscape Restoration of Abandoned Mine Land: Scenario-Based Simulation Integrated Linear Programming and CLUE-S Model

    Open Access•Liping Zhang, Shiwen Zhang et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2016

    Understanding abandoned mine land (AML) changes during land reclamation is crucial for reusing damaged land resources and formulating sound ecological restoration policies. This study combines the linear programming (LP) model and the CLUE-S model to simulate land-use dynamics in the Mentougou District (Beijing, China) from 2007 to 2020 under three reclamation scenarios, that is, the planning scenario based on the general land-use plan in study a…
