The Effect of Mindfulness Training and Cognitive Restructuring Techniques in Reducing Music Performance Anxiety and Enhancing Music Performance Quality Among Undergraduate Music Majors
Centralizing Rules
How does the Chinese Communist Party ensure that its officials remain loyal to the top leader, and what mechanisms does the leader use to get cadres to comply with his policies and intentions? We argue that Party regulations play a very important role in ensuring loyalty. These regulations, both written and unwritten, constitute a system of authoritarian legality through which Xi Jinping ensures that cadres practice the “two safeguards,” thus enh…
Improved quantification of cover crop biomass and ecosystem services through remote sensing-based model–data fusion
Cover crops have long been seen as an effective management practice to increase soil organic carbon (SOC) and reduce nitrogen (N) leaching. However, there are large uncertainties in quantifying these ecosystem services using either observation (e.g. field measurement, remote sensing data) or process-based modeling. In this study, we developed and implemented a model–data fusion (MDF) framework to improve the quantification of cover crop benefits …
Effects of health education during public health emergencies on the health literacy, emotion and coping style of Chinese junior middle school students
This suggests that the health education courses related to public health emergencies designed in this study has an effect on improving health literacy, depression and anxiety in junior middle school students
High-Dimensional Elliptical Sliced Inverse Regression in Non-Gaussian Distributions
Sliced inverse regression (SIR) is the most widely used sufficient dimension reduction method due to its simplicity, generality and computational efficiency. However, when the distribution of covariates deviates from multivariate normal distribution, the estimation efficiency of SIR gets rather low, and the SIR estimator may be inconsistent and misleading, especially in the high-dimensional setting. In this article, we propose a robust alternativ…
Smoking Status and Cognitive Function in a National Sample of Older Adults
This study suggests that cigarette smoking is associated with processing speed among the American elderly
Multivariate Statistical Analysis for the Detection of Air Pollution Episodes in Chemical Industry Parks
Air pollution episodes (APEs) caused by excessive emissions from chemical industry parks (CIPs) have resulted in severe environmental damage in recent years. Therefore, it is of great importance to detect APEs timely and effectively using contaminant measurements from the air quality monitoring network (AQMN) in the CIP. Traditionally, APE can be detected by determining whether the contaminant concentration at any ambient monitoring station excee…
Quantifying nitrogen loss hotspots and mitigation potential for individual fields in the US Corn Belt with a metamodeling approach
The high productivity in the US Corn Belt is largely enabled by the consumption of millions of tons of manufactured fertilizer. Excessive application of nitrogen (N) fertilizer has been pervasive in this region, and the unrecovered N eventually escaped from croplands in forms of nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emission and N leaching. Mitigating these negative impacts is hindered by a lack of practical information on where to focus and how much mitigation …
Challenges and opportunities in precision irrigation decision-support systems for center pivots
Irrigation is critical to sustain agricultural productivity in dry or semi-dry environments, and center pivots, due to their versatility and ruggedness, are the most widely used irrigation systems. To effectively use center pivot irrigation systems, producers require tools to support their decision-making on when and how much water to irrigate. However, currently producers make these decisions primarily based on experience and/or limited informat…
Integrated Fragmentation and the Role of Leading Small Groups in Chinese Politics
How are bureaucrats controlled by their superiors in the Chinese political system? “Leading small groups” (领导小组) are among the most important mechanisms for integrating the interests and opinions of various government and Party departments so that superiors can ensure that their policies are implemented. This article analyzes the roles of the three main actors in the leading small groups: group leaders, the heads of the lead departments, and the …
The Effect of Media Use on Institutional Trust in China
Media consumption increases trust in high-profile institutions such as the central government and the Communist Party and decreases trust in low-profile institutions—local governments, the civil service, courts, and police
