This study examined the effects of message frames when they were culturally tailored. Focusing on one aspect of culture-individualism and collectivism-the study discovered some similar patterns across cultures: The effect of message framing in motivating preventive behaviors could be moderated by the cultural values embedded in the messages. Messages focusing on individualistic gains and collectivistic losses successfully increased people's intention to adopt preventive behaviors. Practical and

BACKGROUND: Media coverage and scholarly research have reported that Asian people who reside in the United States have been the targets of racially motivated incidents during the COVID-19 pandemic. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to examine the types of discrimination and worries experienced by Asians and Asian Americans living in the United States during the pandemic, as well as factors that were associated with everyday discrimination experience and concerns about future discrimination that the As

Energy Efficient Building (EEB) design requires many simulation tools to support making decisions for optimized building solutions, resulting in frequent interactions between computational tools. Building Information Modeling (BIM) server platforms can support the storage, maintenance, and query of IFC-based building information models. However, the lack of a unified interface to support information exchange and interoperability among different building design and simulation tools has become a b

We Chat is one of the most popular social media applications, ranking fifth globally. Drawing on the socioemotional selectivity theory, this study investigated the usage of WeChat among Chinese aged 50–80 years in 68 cities across the country. This study is the first to examine the effects of the characteristics of the WeChat network on users’ psychological well-being (PWB) and subjective well-being (SWB). The results of the online survey (N = 506) suggested that making strong connections on WeC

This study examined 16 years of newspapers’ presentation of a prominent health issue, autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The presence of attribution of autism and stigma cues in national and local newspapers were particularly focused on. Our results illuminated intriguing trends regarding how newspapers have framed the attribution of autism and how various stigma cues have been chosen by national and local newspapers to identify autistic individuals over time. We suggest that given the evolving med

목적 본 연구의 목적은 학생의 미래역량 촉진을 위한 수업역량에 대한 과학교사의 인식을 알아보는 데 있다. 방법 연구 목적을 달성하기 위하여 수업역량과 관련된 선행연구를 분석하였고, 13명의 중등학교 과학교사들을 대상으로 이메일및 심층면담을 통하여 자료를 수집하였다. 결과 미래 교육 환경에서 과학교사에게 필요한 수업역량은 학생의 미래역량 촉진을 위한 수업역량, 에듀테크 활용 역량, 개별 맞춤형 수업역량, 교육 환경 변화 대응 역량 등으로 나타났다. 첫째, 학생의 미래역량 중 과학적 사고, 과학적 탐구력, 의사소통과 협업능력을 함양하기 위해 과학교사는 자기주도적인 탐구 활동으로 주어진 문제를 함께 생각하고 논의하는 기회를 제공하였다. 확산적인사고를 요구하는 발문을 하고, 학생들과 함께 탐구하고 사고하며 학생들이 지식을 찾아가는 과정을 격려하는 수업전략을 사용하였다. 그리고 증거자료를 기반으로 하는 논리적 글쓰기와 학생들이 자신의 의견을 자유롭게 말할 수 있도록 하며, 온라인 협업도구를활

A cross-sectional survey that reached 21 out of 34 provinces of China was conducted during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak in China. The study discovered different patterns of sour...

This study investigated the influence of perceived parenting style on the sense of community of middle-class adolescents and if adolescent' life satisfaction has a mediating effect on the relationship between perceived parenting style and sense of community. The study population consisted of a nationally representative sample of elementary and middle school students who completed the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey of the National Youth Policy Institute in 2010. Among the 4,729 participan

Effective Energy Efficient Buildings (EEB) design requires the use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) design authoring tools, along with various simulation tools to support decision making for optimized building solutions. This requires frequent interactions between computational tools. Traditionally, people have been using a point-to-point model for data exchange between those tools, which is complex and inefficient. An integrated data-centric model can reduce the communication cost and imp

본 연구는 대학의 가정 관련 전공 개설 현황과 중등학교 가정과교육과정에 요구되는 변화를 분야별로 살펴보고, 차기 고등학교교육과정에서 편성할 수 있는 가정교과(군)의 선택과목을 구조화하는 데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 관련 문헌과 자료를 분석하고,가정교과 전문가를 대상으로 설문 조사와 FGI를 실시하였으며, 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 가정교과는 자연계열의 생활과학영역뿐만 아니라 사회계열, 교육계열, 공학계열, 예체능계열 등과 연관성이 높았다. 2019학년도 가정교과와 관련된 학과수는전문대학교 1,405개, 4년제 대학교 961개였으며, 총 입학생수를 기준으로 가정교과 관련 학과 입학생수는 전문대학교는 약12%, 4년제 대학교는 약 7.3%를 차지하여 고등학교 가정교과(군) 선택과목을 개설할 기반이 충분함을 확인하였다. 둘째, 중등학교가정과교육과정에서는 분야별로 달라진 식⋅의⋅주⋅가족⋅소비생활 패턴과 삶의 가치관에 따라 문화, 관계, 자립, 지속가능성등의 개념을 강조하였으며, 단순

Good vehicle handling characteristics are essential to ensure traffic safety. While the handling behaviour of cars has been well investigated, there is a scarcity of such studies on transit buses. This paper analyses the steady-state and transient responses of a typical 12-metre transit bus. Tests were conducted at The Pennsylvania Transportation Institute (PTI) test track and included constant radius cornering, step steer and continuous sinusoidal steer. The test bus was found to show good tran

BACKGROUND: Misinformation has played a significant role in shaping public attitudes toward COVID-19 vaccines, contributing to vaccine hesitancy. This study examines the relationship between misinformation exposure and vaccine hesitancy, focusing on the mediating roles of perceived vaccine safety and efficacy. Additionally, it explores how trust in misinformation influences these relationships. METHODS: A cross-sectional survey was conducted between March and May 2021 across four university camp

Abstract Objective The literature on adolescent consumption behavior asserts that environmental features affect buying impulsiveness of the urban youth in Korea. This research assesses this assertion by examining adolescents’ buying impulsiveness through the integration of mediating and moderating effects that exert influence on them. Method We used a structural equation model to evaluate the relationships between all constructs and the measurement errors of multi‐indicators, and to determine wh

This study examined the factors affecting user engagement in the genetically modified organism (GMO) discourse on one of the most popular social media platforms in China. A content-analysis study was conducted with a sample of the most commented GMO posts on social media and over 7000 comments. Firstly, posts from well-known and government accounts facilitated the online discourse of GMOs. Secondly, the nature of the event and the features of GMO messages influenced how users engaged with the on
