摘要:
Emotional intelligence (EI) has garnered sustained theoretical and empirical attention over recent decades. Within the domain of linguistics, a growing body of research has investigated the relationship between EI and language achievement. Publication trends in this area reveal two distinct phases: a period of lukewarm attention (2009-2017), followed by a phase of rapid growth (2018-present). The present meta-analysis aims to determine whether EI significantly influences language achievement. Drawing on data from 47 independent studies, comprising 63 effect sizes and a total sample of 18,649 participants, this study found a small but significant correlation between EI and subjective language achievement (r = 0.24), and a moderate correlation with objective language achievement (r = 0.41). Moderator analyses revealed that the relationship between EI and objective language achievement varied significantly by educational level, target language, language skill assessed, and publication year. In contrast, no significant moderation effects were found for research type, learning context, students' major, first language, or the measurement instruments employed. These findings underscore the important role of EI in language learning and highlight the need for emotionally responsive and supportive pedagogical environments that contribute to the sustainable development of foreign language education.
摘要:
In today's world, where digital technologies are integral to education, studying the effectiveness of Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) is vital for optimizing learning. This study evaluates the Squirrel AI Learning platform's impact on motivation and engagement among higher education students in Shanghai. A survey was conducted with students using Squirrel AI alongside traditional curricula (experimental group, n = 153) and those using only traditional methods (control group, n = 160). The Motivation and Engagement Scale measured outcomes, and an independent t-test compared group differences. Additionally, one-way ANOVA assessed age, gender, and academic performance factors in the experimental group. Results indicated that Squirrel AI positively influenced motivation and engagement, with significant improvements in Self-efficacy, Valuing, Task Management, Failure Avoidance, Uncertain Control, and Self-handicapping. Gender and academic performance showed notable differences, while age had no significant effect. ITS use in higher education can personalize learning, improving effectiveness and enhancing students' motivation and engagement. Universities should consider adopting such systems for large courses to foster individualized, motivated learning experiences. Considering students' demographics and performance will help create learning scenarios that best meet individual students' needs. However, the findings should be interpreted with caution due to the study's short duration and its limited cultural and geographic scope. Future research is needed to explore long-term effects and generalizability across diverse contexts.
摘要:
BACKGROUND: With the rapid aging of China's population, the proportion of older adults living alone has increased significantly, bringing their mental health concerns into sharp focus. This study aims to explore the network structure of anxiety and depressive symptoms among older Chinese adults who live alone, thereby identifying central and bridging symptoms to provide scientific evidence for potential intervention targets in prevention and treatment. METHODS: A total of 1,952 older Chinese adults, aged 65 and older, living alone, were selected from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS) conducted in 2017-2018. We assessed anxiety and depressive symptoms using Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7) and the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). We identified central and bridge symptoms via expected influences (EI) and bridge expected influences (BEI); network stability was evaluated using bootstrap methods. RESULTS: The network structure uncovered four crucial connections between anxiety and depressive symptoms. GAD4 "Trouble relaxing", GAD2 "Uncontrollable worry", and CESD3 "Feeling blue/depressed" exhibited the highest EI values within the network. Meanwhile, GAD1 "Nervousness or anxiety" and CESD10 "Sleep disturbances" showed the highest BEI values within their respective communities. CONCLUSION: This exploratory study is the first to examine the reciprocal relationship between depressive and anxiety symptoms in older Chinese adults living alone. Targeting these central and bridging symptoms may effectively prevent comorbidity and facilitate targeted interventions for those at risk or currently experiencing these symptoms.

摘要:
This study explored the relationship between negative emotions, engagement, and artificial intelligence (AI) readiness among 323 music students. The researchers employed SPSS (version 27) and AMOS (version 24) for analysis using the Emotion Beliefs Questionnaire (EBQ), the Students' Engagement Questionnaire, and the Artificial Intelligence Readiness Scale. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), along with reliability analysis, correlation, and Multiple Linear Regression, was applied to understand the data. Findings indicate that negative emotions and AI readiness are interrelated with student engagement. Music's emotional impact can influence how students manage their feelings and engage with AI technologies. For instance, individuals who are more prepared for AI integration may leverage these tools to manage their emotions more effectively, which in turn could lead to enhanced music performance, though the specific mechanisms connecting these factors need further clarification. Consequently, high AI readiness can lead to greater engagement with digital learning platforms, potentially benefiting emotional regulation and academic achievements.

摘要:
Objective Exit ramps are accident-prone areas of freeways. One of the reasons for this is the information overload induced by destination signs, which makes them challenging to recognize and may even result in tension or mistakes. This study examined the cognitive workload that destination signs place on drivers and the compensatory behavior they use to counteract the additional workload.
Exit ramps are accident-prone areas of freeways. One of the reasons for this is the information overload induced by destination signs, which makes them challenging to recognize and may even result in tension or mistakes. This study examined the cognitive workload that destination signs place on drivers and the compensatory behavior they use to counteract the additional workload.
Methods Forty-five subjects were recruited to conduct a simulated driving experiment. Four destination signs with varying information levels were used to load mental workload as independent variables. Workload indicators (such as the NASA-TLX questionnaire, heart rate variability and eye movements) and compensatory behavior metrics (such as speed, distance headway, time headway and the increased cognitive time due to deceleration) were collected and analyzed through a mixed design analysis of variance.

Workload indicators (such as the NASA-TLX questionnaire, heart rate variability and eye movements) and compensatory behavior metrics (such as speed, distance headway, time headway and the increased cognitive time due to deceleration) were collected and analyzed through a mixed design analysis of variance.
Results The results show that destination signs with different levels of information produced various cognitive workloads. Drivers’ subjective workload increased significantly with an increase in sign information; however, the heart rate variability indicators did not significantly differ due to the drivers’ compensatory strategy in the cognition process. The principal compensating strategy found was the longitudinal deceleration; as the speed dropped, the distance headway and time headway were significantly increased. Although professional drivers demonstrated a significantly greater speed differential during deceleration than nonprofessional drivers, the alternative safety indicators did not show statistical differences. Additionally, driving experience had no significant impact on the increased cognitive time of compensatory strategies.

Conclusions On the one hand, the effort invested by drivers increased with the workload. On the other hand, when the workload exceeded a particular degree, compensatory driving behavior was triggered, which in turn reduced the workload. There was no discernible difference in the effectiveness of the compensatory strategies employed by professional drivers and nonprofessional drivers under complex destination signs. The findings could provide safety considerations for the design of traffic signs.

摘要:
In school settings, nomophobia-a newly identified form of problematic mobile phone use characterized by anxiety and discomfort experienced when an individual is unable to use or access their smartphone-poses significant challenges to students' learning and daily life. Prior research on nomophobia has predominantly adopted a variable-centered perspective. However, if nomophobia is heterogeneous across subgroups, acknowledging this heterogeneity may inform the advancement of more tailored and productive therapeutic methods. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was conducted separately among high school students (N = 446) and college students (N = 667) to identify potential subgroup heterogeneity in nomophobia. To examine cross-group similarities in nomophobia profiles, a multi-group LPA was employed. Based on multiple model fit criteria, a three-profile solution-high nomophobia, moderate nomophobia, and low nomophobia-was identified for both groups. However, the multi-group LPA provided only partial support for the similarity of nomophobia profiles across educational stages, specifically in terms of configural and dispersion similarity. While similar nomophobia profiles emerged across groups, the partial equivalence suggests that intervention strategies for nomophobia may not be universally applicable across different educational levels. Additional studies should investigate the mechanisms underlying students' nomophobia profiles and to inform differentiated interventions for educators, institutions, and policymakers.

摘要:
This study tested a chain mediation model on whether hopelessness and nostalgia play a mediating role in psychache and suicidal ideation of firefighters. A total of 652 firefighters participated in the survey (male = 94.94%; mean age = 23.71 years, SD = 4.18 years). The firefighters completed the Chinese Revised Psychache Scale (PAS), Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS), Southampton Nostalgia Scale (SNS), and Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS). The path analysis results indicated that psychache positively predicted suicidal ideation. Hopelessness plays a significant mediating role between psychache and suicidal ideation further strengthening this relationship. In contrast, nostalgia mediates and weakened the relationship between psychache and suicidal ideation. Hopelessness and nostalgia jointly constructed a chain mediating effect between psychache and suicidal ideation, for higher suicidal ideation with higher hopelessness and lower nostalgia. The findings align with the Three-Step Theory of Suicide, which proposes that suicidal ideation results from the combination of pain and hopelessness and that connectedness is a key protective factor against escalating ideation. Therefore, interventions to reduce suicidal ideation in firefighters should aim to enhance their nostalgia, while reducing sense of hopelessness.

摘要:
Investigating the coupling coordination between urban scale and vitality is critical for enhancing holistic urban development quality and advancing sustainability. Taking the Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan (ChangZhuTtan) metropolitan area as a case study, this research integrates multi-source raster and vector data to: (1) analyze spatial patterns of urban scale and virtual-substantive vitality; (2) delineate a "scale-vitality" hierarchical zonal structure; (3) quantify coupling relationships across subzones; and (4) propose synergistic spatial optimization strategies. Key findings reveal that, distinct core-periphery structure characterizes urban scale and vitality, with Changsha's central districts dominating population, land use, and economic metrics, while Zhuzhou and Xiangtan exhibit moderate concentrations. Significant positive correlations exist between urban scale and dual vitality types, with scale-driven vitality enhancement being most pronounced in core agglomeration zones. Furthermore, in the metropolitan core, where both urban scale and vitality values are high, they exhibit a high-value coupling state. As they expanded outward, both metrics gradually decreased, resulting in a low-value coupling state. However, zonal comparisons (core agglomeration circle-peripheral expansion circle) reveal that the proportion of spatially coupled units progressively increases. By elucidating scale-vitality coupling in the ChangZhuTtan metropolitan area, this study provides actionable insights for spatial planning and sustainable urban transition. The methodology framework is replicable for similar metropolitan regions globally.

摘要:
In light of the growing global enthusiasm for learning Chinese, understanding the psychological factors influencing Chinese language learners-particularly the impact of anxiety on second language Chinese achievement (hereafter "Chinese achievement")-is essential for improving teaching effectiveness. However, the specific effects and magnitude of this relationship remain a topic of academic debate. Grounded in the Control-Value Theory, this study employs a meta-analytic approach to synthesize findings from 23 empirical studies, encompassing 58 independent effect sizes and a total of 4,191 participants. The results reveal a small-to-moderate negative correlation between anxiety and Chinese achievement. Moderator analyses indicate that language proficiency level and the proportion of female learners significantly influence this relationship. Specifically, the negative impact of anxiety is most pronounced among beginners, followed by advanced, intermediate, and mixed-proficiency learners. Additionally, anxiety has a stronger detrimental effect on Chinese achievement in learner groups with a higher proportion of females. However, publication language, participant region, learning context, language skills, and achievement measurement did not exhibit significant moderating effects. These findings provide valuable implications for international Chinese language education, highlighting the importance of a student-centered teaching approach, optimized instructional strategies, and enhanced teaching quality.
摘要:
INTRODUCTION: University campuses, with their abundant natural resources and sports facilities, are essential in promoting walking activities among students, faculty, and nearby communities. However, the mechanisms through which campus environments influence walking activities remain insufficiently understood. This study examines universities in Wuhan, China, using crowdsourced data and machine learning methods to analyze the nonlinear and interactive effects of campus built environments on exercise walking. METHODS: This study utilized crowdsourced exercise walking data and incorporated diverse campus characteristics to construct a multidimensional variable system. By applying the XGBoost algorithm and SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations), an explainable machine learning framework was established to evaluate the importance of various factors, explore the nonlinear relationships between variables and walking activity, and analyze the interaction effects among these variables. RESULTS: The findings underscore the significant impact of several key factors, including the proportion of sports land, proximity to water bodies, and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index NDVI, alongside the notable influence of six distinct campus area types. The analysis of nonlinear effects revealed distinct thresholds and patterns of influence that differ from other urban environments, with some variables exhibiting fluctuated or U-shaped effects. Additionally, strong interactions were identified among variable combinations, highlighting the synergistic impact of elements like sports facilities, green spaces, and waterfront areas when strategically integrated. CONCLUSION: This research contributes to the understanding of how campus built environments affect walking activities, offering targeted recommendations for campus planning and design. Recommendations include optimizing the spatial configuration of sports facilities, green spaces, and water bodies to maximize their synergistic impacts on walking activity. These insights can foster the development of inclusive, health-promoting, and sustainable campuses.
摘要:
High-albedo ground and wall materials are promoted to mitigate heat stress in tropical climates, yet conflicting evidence driven by climatic and metric variability make their impact on Outdoor Thermal Comfort (OTC) unclear. This study employed parametric simulations to assess how ground and wall albedo affect OTC, measured via the Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) in typical urban canyons. Using ENVI-met, we tested ground albedo (0.2-0.8) and wall albedo (0.05-0.90) with emissivity fixed at 0.9. Findings reveal that ground albedo had a minimal impact on the UTCI (mean amplitude 0.44 degrees C), while wall albedo reduced the UTCI by up to 2.80 degrees C, prioritizing wall material selection for heat mitigation. It was also found that the increase in ground albedo offsets the cooling potential of high-albedo walls. Furthermore, differences in the impact under shaded and unshaded areas were observed. These results question assumptions of universal high-albedo benefits, recommending case-specific simulations in urban design.
摘要:
The excessive utilization of industrial output has drawn significant attention from authorities toward sustainable development. Given the substantial environmental challenges posed by the industrial sector, sustainable development has emerged as a paramount concern for scholars and organizations alike. In this context, considerable emphasis has been placed on the significance of digitization. Digital technologies, particularly blockchain technology (BCH) and digital finance (DF), are transforming the landscape of business and the economy, facilitating corporate sustainable development (CSD), enhancing corporate social practices, and fostering green innovation. Through the application of various econometric strategies using the Chinese business sector as a sample of the study, we found that BCH effectively promotes green innovation and corporate social activities. Additionally, our analysis underscores the critical role of DF in advancing corporate social practices and green innovation. Notably, we highlight the importance of human capital as a moderating factor that strengthens the relationships between BCH and CSD, as well as between digital finance and CSD. This study offers novel insights into ways, digital technology can enhance corporate sustainability practices and presents a framework that may be of significant utility to policymakers and decision-makers.

摘要:
Urban forests provide essential ecosystem services, including improving soil health, sequestering carbon (C), and supporting biodiversity. However, the effects of anthropogenic litter and root management on soil biogeochemical processes in urban environments remain poorly understood. This study applied the Detritus Inputs and Removal Treatment (DIRT) framework to examine how aboveground and belowground organic inputs influence soil organic carbon (SOC), total nitrogen (TN), soil water content (SWC), and enzymatic activities in subtropical urban camphor tree forests in China. Six treatments were implemented: litter removal (LR), litter addition (LA), root exclusion (RE), combined litter and root removal (LR + RE), combined litter addition and root exclusion (LA + RE), and an undisturbed litter control (LC). The results showed that the LA treatment significantly enhanced SOC, TN, SWC, and key soil enzyme activities (protease, catalase, and urease) compared to the LC, highlighting the crucial role of litter in enhancing soil fertility and microbial functioning. These elevated enzyme activities suggest intensified microbial nutrient cycling and metabolic activity in response to organic matter inputs. In contrast, the combined LR + RE treatment reduced SOC and enzyme activities but unexpectedly increased TN, indicating disrupted nutrient cycling, possibly due to accelerated microbial nitrogen mineralization and decomposition of existing soil organic matter in the absence of fresh carbon inputs. The LA treatment also showed the highest carbon-to-nitrogen (C:N) ratio, reflecting a carbon-enriched environment that may favor long-term carbon stabilization. Additionally, SWC was most improved under the LA + RE treatment, suggesting its potential for enhancing soil moisture retention in urban settings. These findings underscore the complementary roles of litter and root inputs in maintaining soil health and biogeochemical balance in urban forests. The study provides insights into enzyme-mediated soil processes under varying organic input regimes and highlights the value of targeted organic matter management to enhance urban ecosystem services.

摘要:
China's rapid economic growth has increased tensions between production, living, and ecological spaces (PLES), making sustainable land-use planning difficult. Therefore, PLES evolution and processes are a focus of current research. Remote sensing data with land-use transition matrices, centroid migration, standard deviation ellipses, spatial autocorrelation, and geographic detectors were used to study the dynamics of PLES in Hunan Province from 1990 to 2020, elucidate its mechanisms and main influencing factors, and provide a comprehensive understanding of its evolutionary characteristics. The main conclusions of our analysis are as follows: (1) Ecological space was the dominant land-use type, while production space increased, putting strain on natural areas. (2) Living space increased by 40.73% over three decades, mostly comprising manufacturing space, highlighting urban expansion. (3) Despite land-use changes, Loudi City's PLES centroid remained central. (4) Standard deviation ellipses showed spatial shrinkage with directional stability, implying enhanced land usage within borders rather than outward growth. (5) The geographic detector analysis showed that the GDP, population density, slope, and elevation influenced these spatial changes. Economic prosperity drove urban expansion, but the slope and elevation limited development to accessible locations. These findings provide policymakers with essential information for balancing urbanization and ecological preservation and provide a case study for sustainable PLES design in rapidly developing regions.
摘要:
The article described the study of possibilities and prospects of teaching dance choreographic skills in a virtual educational environment. The researchers compared the educational achievements in the control and experimental groups and determined the influence of additional educational practices in the virtual interactive dance online studio (STEEZY Studio) on the learning outcomes. The vast majority of the students (97%) assessed online dance education as comfortable and productive. An advanced level of choreographic mastery in a solo performance was demonstrated by 70.8% of the experimental group students and 45.8% in the control group; their scores were between 90 and 100. The practical educational experience shown in the article can be valuable in the context of dance training. Dance choreographic instructors can use the findings to choose optimal and effective tools that improve their teaching practice in the online environment.
摘要:
BACKGROUND: The community environment is an important factor affecting people's residential relocation; however, existing literature has primarily focused on the objective aspects of the community environment, with less emphasis on residents' perception of it. METHOD: To address this research gap, we selected 74 typical communities and collected 1,568 questionnaires across Guangzhou. We employed factor analysis to capture participants' community environmental perception and used binary logistic regression to analyze the association between independent and dependent variables. RESULTS: The results show that: (1) There is a significant association between age, household registration, and participants' residential relocation intention; (2) Community environmental perception can be summarized into three aspects: environmental disorder perception, community attachment, and satisfaction, all of which are significantly associated with participants' residential relocation intention; and (3) There is a positive association between perception of a disorderly environment and residents' intention to relocation, and a negative association between community attachment and satisfaction and residents' intention to relocation. CONCLUSION: This research is highly significant for enhancing our understanding of factors influencing people's residential relocation intention and for guiding community construction.
摘要:
To quantify the spatiotemporal patterns of the water-level variations in the study area, we conducted cluster analysis of the temporally varying measurements across multiple hydrological stations. The temporal trends and change points were analyzed, followed by IHA-RVA quantification of the water-level alterations before and after change points. Cluster analysis demonstrated the following. (1) Hydrological stations segregate into two distinct groups at the Euclidean distance threshold d = 5, and into three clusters at d = 4, confirming the pronounced west–east heterogeneity in the lake. (2) The hydrological alteration degrees exhibit considerable variation across the lake’s sub-lakes (Qili, Muping, South Dongting, East Dongting), with marked heterogeneity persisting even among representative monitoring stations within individual sub-lakes. The water-level regimes in Qili Lake can be partitioned into two distinct periods, before and after the change point, exhibiting the highest hydrological alteration degree across the lake. Representative stations of the other sub-lakes fall into three periods. During the first phase of hydrological alteration, Zhouwenmiao, Jinshi, and Chenglingji exhibit moderate alteration. Throughout the second alteration phase, all the representative stations consistently exhibit moderate alteration, although significant heterogeneity emerges across hydrological indicators among the sub-lakes. (3) Downstream of Yangliutan station, the longitudinal profile exhibits terraced morphology, segmented into three distinct levels by two hydraulic knickpoints. This geomorphic configuration primarily controls both the localized stage reductions and the maintenance of elevated upstream water levels during dry seasons. Confronting the persistent dry-season stage declines at Yingtian Station, enhanced monitoring and conservation of terraced transition zones in South Dongting Lake must be prioritized, with implementation of the zoned control principle for water-level governance and lake management. This study establishes a scientific foundation for the protection and governance of Dongting Lake, thereby advancing sustainable utilization of its water resources.

摘要:
Aggression has been receiving much attention always as it has serious negative effects. Moral disgust may be a protective factor against aggression. This study explores the mediating role of malicious envy and benign envy in the relationship between moral disgust and aggression from the perspective of integrative functional theory of moral disgust. The present study recruited 1052 participants and asked them to complete Three Domains of Disgust Scale (including Moral Disgust Subscale), Benign and Malicious Envy Scale, and Aggression Scale. The results showed that: (1) benign envy acted as a mediating variable between moral disgust and aggression, and played a partial mediating role. Malicious envy acted as a mediating variable between moral disgust and aggression, and played a full mediator role. In other words, both benign envy and malicious envy played an independent mediating role between moral disgust and aggression; (2) Benign envy and malicious envy are the mediator variables at the same time, only malicious envy can play a fully mediating role between moral disgust and aggression. That’s to say, moral disgust can stably and significantly affect aggression through malicious envy. This study provided a theoretical reference to inhibit the generation of negative emotions and aggressive behaviors in social practice.

摘要:
Against the backdrop of globalization and ecological civilization, this study aims to analyze the patterns of system coupling coordination development in the Yangtze River Basin under the interacting influences of population growth, ecological conservation, energy utilization, and digital economic development. Using a multisource model, this paper explores the state of coordinated development, spatial–temporal evolution characteristics, and influencing factors in the Yangtze River Basin from 2011 to 2020. The results indicate the following: (1) The overall degree of coupling coordination in the Yangtze River Basin shows better performances in the eastern coastal areas compared to the central and western regions. Over time, the spatial autocorrelation of coupling and coordination increases, exhibiting a significant spatial clustering trend. (2) The Moran’s I index increased from 0.327 to 0.370, with high–high clusters primarily distributed in economically developed coastal provinces, while low–low clusters were observed in remote provinces in the central and western regions, revealing regional development imbalance issues. (3) The driving force analysis shows that green coverage and GDP are the core factors influencing the spatial differentiation of coupling coordinated development. Factors such as the urbanization rate, nighttime light index, and energy consumption had significant impacts in certain years but are generally considered minor factors. The results of this study not only contribute to understanding the dynamic mechanisms of regional coupling and development but also provide a scientific basis for formulating regional coordinated development policies, promoting the achievement of win–win goals of economic growth and ecological civilization in the Yangtze River Basin and similar regions.
