Can Brand Activism Help? The Effects of Fit and Consumer Trait in Building Brand Trust
This study examines how brand activism builds brand trust through two online experiments. Study 1 employed a 2 (crisis: present vs. absent) × 2 (communication strategy: advocacy vs. avoidance) between‐subjects design ( N = 129). Study 2 used a 2 (crisis: present vs. absent) × 2 (crisis‐activism fit: high vs. low) between‐subjects design ( N = 219), testing ethnocentrism as a moderator. Across both experiments, brand trust, attitude toward brand, …
From green advertising to greenwashing: Content analysis of global corporations’ green advertising on social media
In view of increasing demand for environmental initiatives from consumers, corporations have actively created green advertising to demonstrate their commitment to the environment. This study conducted a systematic content analysis of green advertising by leading global corporations on social media in 2019, 2020, and 2021. By replicating and extending the seminal study by Carlson, Grove, and Kangun in 1993, we explored changes in green advertising…
Strengthened impact of late autumn Arctic sea ice on Asian winter cold extremes after 1999/2000
Winter cold extremes (WCEs) frequently plague densely populated areas of Asia, leading to substantial economic losses and even fatalities. It has been found that the late autumn sea ice concentration (SIC) anomalies in the northern (SICN) and southern Arctic (SICS) are significantly positively and negatively correlated with the occurrence frequency of WCE in Asia, respectively (Wang and Su 2024). Our study demonstrates that the impacts of SICN an…

How do Social Achievement Goals Affect Early Adolescents’ Academic Engagement? The Role of Feeling Stressed and Lonely
Research has established the significance of social achievement goals in shaping adolescents’ academic engagement. However, the precise mechanisms underpinning this connection remain incomplete. In two studies involving U.S. middle school students (Study 1 N = 212, Study 2 N = 318), we explored the relationship between social achievement goals, academic adjustment, and the mediating role of social distress and loneliness. High social development …
Interactive effects of parental psychological control and autonomy support on emerging adults’ emotion regulation and self-esteem
Why could Enso directly affect the occurrence frequency of Arctic daily warming events after the late 1970s
Arctic winter daily warming events have sparked growing interest, particularly in recent years, when Arctic daily temperatures have approached melting point several times. This analysis reveals that the impact of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) on the frequency of Arctic daily warming events experienced an obvious change around the late 1970s, which may be attributed to changes in ENSO intensity. Since the late 1970s, due to stronger ENSO…
