  • Mapping the humanistic care ecosystem in medical education

    Open AccessYuqun Zhang, Xinyu Liang et al.ARTICLEBMC Medical Education2026

    BACKGROUND: Deficiencies in medical humanistic care contribute to poor therapeutic relationships and clinical conflicts. Existing assessment tools are fragmented, lacking a comprehensive framework to systematically evaluate the multidimensional ecosystem of humanistic education in medicine. Thus, this study developed and validated the Humanistic Care Scale for Medical Education (HCS-ME) to address this gap. METHODS: An initial 68-item pool was ge…

Methods: Associations between 18 complete blood co…

  • The role of nonverbal communication cues in reducing videoconference fatigue

    Open AccessBenjamin J Li, Heng ZhangARTICLECyberpsychology Journal of…2026

    Videoconferencing for work and study purposes has become increasingly prevalent in people's daily lives. However, the negative effects of prolonged and frequent use of videoconferencing, particularly videoconference fatigue (VF), have also become more severe. With technological advancements, virtual reality (VR) videoconferencing has been proposed as a potential solution to mitigate these negative impacts, especially concerning nonverbal communic…

  • Individual differences in beliefs about gesture perception and production

    Heng Zhang, Amelia Yeo et al.ARTICLEInteractive Learning Environments2025

    Gestures are one of the most common forms of nonverbal communication in everyday life and work. While specific gestures have been well-studied, the role of general gestures in computer-mediated communication remains largely unknown, especially regarding individual differences in gesture production and perception. Utilizing the limited capacity model of motivated mediated message processing as the theoretical framework, this study explores the imp…

  • On pessimism aversion in the context of artificial intelligence and locus of control

    Open AccessC Montag, Peter J Schulz et al.ARTICLEAI & Society2025

    The present study sheds light on a new psychological construct called “AI pessimism aversion” (AIPA) describing an overly optimistic view of the benefits of AI by neglecting its potential dangers. In an international sample of N = 543 participants, we observed that the construct of AIPA strongly overlaps with single-item measures for positive and negative AI attitudes. Furthermore, the structural equation model suggests that the positive associat…

  • The effect of smoker identity on interpretive bias among smokers

    Haide Chen, Heng Zhang et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica Sinica2025

    摘要: 成瘾者对相关线索的解释偏向属于认知偏向的重要成分, 然而, 吸烟者对吸烟相关线索解释偏向的特征及其诱发机制还未探明。研究通过3个子研究分别考察吸烟者吸烟相关解释偏向的特征, 吸烟者身份认同对吸烟相关解释偏向的影响, 以及认知负荷在吸烟者身份认同影响吸烟相关解释偏向中的作用。研究采用模糊情境测验吸烟者解释偏向, 结果显示:(1)吸烟者的吸烟相关解释偏向显著高于非吸烟者; (2)高吸烟者身份认同吸烟者的吸烟相关解释偏向显著高于低吸烟者身份认同吸烟者; (3)随着认知负荷增加, 吸烟者身份认同对吸烟者吸烟相关解释偏向的影响减小。结果说明充足的认知资源促进了吸烟者身份认同对吸烟者吸烟相关解释偏向的诱发作用。研究扩充了对吸烟者认知偏向成分及其诱发机制的认识

  • Cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome modifies smoking-related risk for cardiovascular diseases

    Open AccessXinhui Liu, Heng Zhang et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2025

    Our finding emphasizes the importance of smoking cessation among individuals with advanced CKM syndrome, as they face heightened CVD risk. However, compared to those at earlier CKM stages, the short-term benefits of smoking cessation may be less pronounced in this population. Interventions that combine smoking cessation promotion with CKM syndrome management may yield greater reductions in the risk of several CVD outcomes
