Pre-service Teachers’ Perception of Competence, Social Relatedness, and Autonomy in a Flipped Classroom: Effects on Learning to Notice Student Preconceptions

ABSTRACT Science teachers should be able to notice student preconceptions in order to adapt instructions to their students’ needs and support the learning process. Noticing as a core practice of teaching should thus be implemented early in science teacher education. A crucial prerequisite for noticing is knowledge about students’ preconceptions, which is an important element of science teachers’ pedagogical content knowledge. To enhance pre-service teachers’ pedagogical content knowledge, flipped classroom approaches seem especially promising as they combine a theoretical introduction to important didactic concepts with a direct application of these concepts in profession-oriented learning tasks. Furthermore, flipped classrooms seem to satisfy the three basic personal needs of experience in competence, social relatedness, and autonomy according to the self-determination theory of motivation, thus enhancing learning. This intervention study investigates the effect of a course on physics didactics designed according to the flipped classroom approach on pre-service teachers’ (N = 87) learning to notice student preconceptions. Specifically, we analyzed how pre-service teachers’ perception of competence, social relatedness, and autonomy during course participation related to their noticing abilities. We found a significant increase (d = 0.40) in PSTs’ noticing abilities, operationalized as absolute number of recognized preconceptions between pre- and posttest. However, this increase was not mediated by PSTs’ perception of competence, social relatedness, and autonomy.
Research types and innovation performance: the mediating effect of paper influence and patent novelty

ABSTRACT In order to clarify which types of research is more conducive to improving innovation performance, we use the panel data of key universities in China from 2009 to 2017 for empirical research. The results show that basic research intensity is significantly positive correlated with innovation performance, while paper influence, patent novelty plus the interaction between paper influence and patent novelty are all playing a mediating role between basic research intensity and innovation performance. Furthermore, we use applied research intensity, experimental development intensity and provincial panel data for variables substitution and sample subdivision to carry out robustness test, clarifying the functional mechanism and the heterogeneity of boundary conditions between different types of research intensity and innovation performance. Relevant conclusions are of great theoretical and practical value for optimising the allocation of S&T resources and enriching the theoretical system of innovation research.
Deciphering the Mechanism of Coordinative Chain Transfer Polymerization of Ethylene Using Neodymocene Catalysts and Dialkylmagnesium

Ethylene polymerizations were performed in toluene using the neodymocene complex (C5Me5)2NdCl2Li(OEt2)2 or {(Me2Si(C13H8)2)Nd(μ-BH4)[(μ-BH4)Li(THF)]}2 in combination with n-butyl-n-octylmagnesium used as both alkylating and chain transfer agent. The kinetics were followed for various [Mg]/[Nd] ratios, at different polymerization temperatures, with or without ether as a cosolvent. These systems allowed us to (i) efficiently obtain narrowly distributed and targeted molar masses, (ii) characterize three phases during the course of polymerization, (iii) estimate the propagation activation energy (17 kcal mol–1), (iv) identify the parameters that control chain transfer, and (v) demonstrate enhanced polymerization rates and molar mass distribution control in the presence of ether as cosolvent. This experimental set of data is supported by a computational investigation at the DFT level that rationalizes the chain transfer mechanism and the specific microsolvation effects in the presence of cosolvents at the mole.
DOES EMOTIONAL CONGRUENCE AND COMPULSIVE SEXUAL BEHAVIOR INCREASE THE RECURRENCE RISKS OF CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE?

This research examines the influence of Emotional Congruence with Children and Compulsive Sexual Behavior towards Re-offend Prediction of Child Sexual Offenders. The research was conducted on 111 residents of correctional facilities for child sexual abuse in 5 correctional institutions in East Java, all of whom were males aged 18 to 81. The prediction of reoffending was assessed using an actuarial instrument, Static-2002 which was tested with Fleiss Kappa Inter-rater Reliability 89% (14 items). Emotional Congruence with Children was assessed by the adapted Emotional Congruence Scale of Children and Sex Questionnaire (EC-CSQ; 15 items, α = .88). Compulsive Sexual Behavior assessed by the Compulsive Sexual Behavior Inventory-13 (CSBI-13; 13 items, α = .85). The data was analyzed by using correlation and multivariate linear regression analysis. The research found that age and Compulsive Sexual Behavior, particularly Distress in Daily Functioning, significantly predicted reoffending among Child Sexual Crime Offenders (R 2 = .49). However, the inability to Control Compulsive Sexual Behavior was not predictive towards reoffending. The findings of this research are expected to provide input in the criminal justice and psychological correction-rehabilitation process for sexual offenders in Indonesia.
Investigating the Development and Reception of an Art Exhibition on the Theme of Early Modern Representations of Love

18 Can the modern-day art gallery visitor access the historical emotional meaning of what is viewed? 19 The present investigation explored Love: Art of Emotions , an exhibition curated and shown at the 20 National Gallery of Victoria April-June 2017, which displayed a variety of artworks from the early 21 modern period. The current article aimed to investigate both curator intentions and visitor reception 22 of the exhibition. The project leader and the exhibition curator were interviewed about the aims of the 23 exhibition and the steps implemented to realize its intentions. Materials such as the catalogue and 24 exhibition labels were also subjected to a textual analysis to deepen understanding of the curatorial 25 offerings. Additionally, 80 gallery visitors were asked about their subjective experiences of the 26 exhibition. Thematic analysis of the curatorial team interviews and supporting materials from the 27 exhibition identified how the exhibition was created, including coverage of the presenting the 28 historical meaning of love, the selection of specific artworks to be exhibited, design aesthetics, layout 29 and the additional materials presented to support the viewing experience. Thematic analyses of the 30 impact of the exhibition on visitors highlighted overlap with the curatorial team’s intentions, 31 demonstrating that some curatorial choices were apparent to gallery visitors and were also well 32 received. A major exception was appreciation for a historical understanding of love. This was found 33 to be less striking or memorable than the visitors’ own visceral and personal emotional response, 34 such as an emotional reaction to the ambience, rather than to the historical meanings the work might 35 have generated. These findings challenge curators to devise strategies that can help elicit historical 36 understandings in exhibited art works as well as visceral emotional responses. This will project an 37 understanding of art galleries as multi-sensorial and also multi-modal sites in which to experience the 38 emotional impact of artworks through both a visceral and historical frame. 39 40
Evolution and Traditional Importance of Manda National Park (MNP) in the Moyen-Chari Province of CHAD

The study aims to analyze the traditional perception of riparian populations on the spatial-temporal evolution and importance of the Manda National Park (MNP) in the Moyen-Chari Province, in order to contribute to the implementation of a participatory and efficient strategy for its sustainable management. To do this, a survey was conducted using a questionnaire with 211 people composed of forestry officials and non-officials from the four (04) townships bordering the park. The data collected concerned the evolution of the vegetation cover, uses, degradation of plant resources and their causes. The results show that the MNP has suffered from anthropic pressure, resulting in a regression of the vegetation cover in a global way from 2009 to 2019. The main causes of the decrease in vegetation cover are overgrazing, poaching, bush fires, logging and hunting. The main uses of MNP's forest resources are for food, fodder, energy fuel, and traditional medicine. The plant species most used for various purposes are Anogeissus leiocarpus (42.36%), Terminalia laxiflora (26.97%), Flueggea virosa (21.3%), Detarium microcarpum (20.11%) and Vitellaria paradoxa (19.70%). The four townships do not differ significantly from each other in the types of uses of forest resources and the causes of their degradation. The results of scientific studies obtained on the dynamics of the park's vegetation cover confirm traditional perceptions. Hence the importance of involving local populations in studies on the sustainable management of the park.
Mechanical Properties of Electrospun Fibers—A Critical Review

The mechanical properties of electrospun fibers play an important role in determining their applications. Most of the reported literature measures the mechanical properties of electrospun mats, scaffolds, or films instead of single fibers; however, a basic understanding of the relationship between the mechanical properties of the single fiber and that of the mat is critical to obtain precise information for choosing their application. This Review aims to evaluate the reported mechanical properties of electrospun fibers and the variables that influence those properties. An overview on the recent inputs in the development of mechanical properties of electrospun fibers is given, illustrating attempts to tailor mechanical properties of the fibers and/or mats. The necessity of determining flexible and reliable testing methods to establish testing standards for obtaining consistent and reliable data for both electrospun fibers and mats is also highlighted.
Influence of need for cognition and psychological safety climate on information elaboration and team creativity

ABSTRACT Team creativity is critical for organization survival, and the quality of team creativity depends on the ideas provided by team members as well as the discussion processes through which teams realize the potential of these ideas. On the basis of the Motivated Information Processing in Groups (MIP-G) model, which suggests that the quality of group decisions is a function of the interaction between epistemic motivation and social motivation, we examined (1) the effects that teams’ need for cognition (an antecedent of epistemic motivation) and (2) the effects that a team’s psychological safety climate (an antecedent of social motivation) have on team members’ information elaboration. We hypothesized that, through information elaboration, these two factors interact with each other in their effects on team creativity. A survey of 106 teams from 87 companies was conducted, and the results of the subsequent analysis of data provide some support for the MIP-G model. Psychological safety climate and the need for cognition were positively associated with team creativity through information elaboration. However, we did not find support for the interaction effect, in contrast to assumptions in the MIP-G model.
Prevalence of diaper rash and associated factors among babies aged 0 to 24 months in Adama Administrative City, Central Ethiopia: A cross sectional study

The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of diaper rash and identify associated factors with diaper rash among children between 0 and 24 months of age in Adama Ethiopia. A cross-sectional study was conducted with mothers using structured questionaries during face to face interview to assess risk factors associated with diaper rash. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 21 and Chi-square test was used to establish the association between diaper rash and socio-demographic and socio-economic characteristics at p-value <0.05. Multivariate logistic regressions are used to test the significancy of risk factors. About 62.5% (235/376) of children in the study had experienced diaper rash. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that diarrhea (AOR=0.424; 95%CI=0.203-0.902; P=0.032), food types consumed by baby (AOR=0.21; 95%CI=0.050-0.882; P=0.033), use of barrier cream (AOR=0.012; 95%CI: 0.005-0.029; P=0.000) and frequency of diaper change (AOR=3.174; 95% CI=0.068-9.438; P=0.038) were among factors associated with diaper rash. In this study changing diaper frequently, using cream and breast feeding with baby formula milk were identified as a factor that reduce the prevalence of diaper rash whereas diarrhea was identified as a risk factor that aggravate diaper rash. Thus, educating mothers on the importance of breast feeding, use of cream and diaper change is useful. Key words: Diaper rash, prevalence, babies.
Evaluating Reddit as a Crowdsourcing Platform for Psychology Research Projects

Background: Online crowdsourcing platforms, such as Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk), have become popular alternatives to the ubiquitous student samples used in psychology research. r/SampleSize, an alternative pool on the website Reddit, allows for online participant recruitment without compulsory or immediate payment, making it potentially useful for students, research trainees, and course instructors. Objective: The current study sought to assess the viability of using r/SampleSize as a participant pool by comparing its data characteristics to MTurk and existing lab samples. Method: Two hundred and fifty-six MTurk workers and 277 r/SampleSize participants completed identical questionnaires on demographics, participation motivations, and standard psychology scales. Results: Participants recruited through r/SampleSize reported diverse ages, education levels, income, and employment, although White ethnic background and US residence were predominant. r/SampleSize participants were more internally motivated than MTurk to participate in research and had greater need for cognition but did not differ significantly in altruism or motivation to gain self-knowledge. r/SampleSize data reliability and quality were comparable to MTurk and lab samples across most analyses. Teaching Implications: r/SampleSize can be used to recruit relatively large and diverse samples for undergraduate research projects with minimal setup, labor, and cost. Conclusion: The findings suggest that r/SampleSize is a diverse and viable participant pool.
The mediating effect of optimism between grit and learning flow of nursing students

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the mediating effect of optimism on the relationship between grit and learning flow in nursing college students. Methods: Structured self-reported questionnaires were used to measure grit, optimism and learning flow. The study was conducted on 200 nursing students in P, U and J cities between September 1 and September 20, 2020. The data were analyzed using a t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficients and hierarchical multiple linear regression with SPSS/WIN 23.0. Results: Significant relationships were found between learning flow and grit (r=.60, p<.001), between learning flow and optimism (r=.42, p<.001), and between grit and optimism (r=.42, p<.001). Additionally, optimism had a partial mediating effect on the relationship between grit and learning flow (Z=3.11, p<.001). Conclusion: These results indicate that interventions to increase the level of grit along with optimism is necessary in order to increase the level of nursing college students’ learning flow.
A revised multilocus phylogeny of Old World sparrows (Aves: Passeridae)

The Old World sparrows include some of the best-studied passerine species, such as the cosmopolitan human commensal, the house sparrow (Passer domesticus) as well as poorly studied narrow-range endemics like the Iago sparrow (P. iagoensis) from the Cape Verde Archipelago or specialists from extreme environments like the desert sparrow (P. simplex). It is therefore notable that to date the most complete phylogenetic hypothesis for the Old World sparrows comprised only ten of 43 currently accepted species. With this study we provide an updated phylogeny of Passeridae covering about two third of the family’s species richness. Though still being far from taxon-complete, this new phylogenetic hypothesis provides firm evidence to clarify some open taxonomic questions. All genus-level taxa were reciprocally monophyletic with strong support. Contrary to previous classifications, bush sparrows and rock sparrows were not sister taxa, and therefore their classification in separate genera Gymnoris and Petronia is justified. Plumage color traits like the yellow throat patch of the latter two genera or head color pattern in Passer species do not provide reliable phylogenetic information, except for the large-sized African grey-headed sparrows that resulted as a monophyletic group (P. diffusus, P. griseus, P. gongoensis). Unexpectedly, two small-sized species, P. eminibey and P. luteus that to date are regarded as close relatives were firmly nested in two separate clades of Passer sparrows. Therefore, their separate generic treatment under Sorella eminibey and Auripasser luteus (together with A. euchlorus) does not seem justified.
Living at the Speed of Mobile: How Users Evaluate Social Media News Posts on Smartphones

A growing body of research suggests that differences between smartphones and desktop computers influence information processing outcomes. A within-subjects (N = 64) smartphone eye-tracking experiment replicates a 2018 desktop-based study of users’ visual attention to and engagement with social media news posts. The results show that users spend less time viewing social media news posts on smartphones than desktop, and report lower levels of pleasure and arousal in response to the posts. However, the study found no significant difference between devices in intent to click to read the story and intent to share the post. The findings are discussed with regard to implications for the role of device and attention in communication theory, as well as practical implications for news organizations and other social media content producers.
DETERMINING PURCHASE INTENTION IN HALAL PERSONAL CARE PRODUCT: STUDY ON MUSLIMAH MILLENNIAL GENERATION

Currently, Indonesian citizens were mostly dominated by the millennial generation. The domination of this generation became a potential market for a halal product. However, millennials considered having less interest to dig more information about the “halalness” of products. Therefore, this study will focus on the millennial generation’s halal personal care product purchase intention behavior. Method applied in this study was quantitative and the primary data taken from the millennial generation in Jakarta, which amounted to 104 respondents by purposive sampling. Further, Partial Least Square (PLS) was used as data analysis. The results study showed that halal personal care product’s purchase intention was affected significantly by halal marketing and health reason. Halal awareness and certification did not significantly affect the millennial generation’s purchase intention of halal personal care products.

How coach leadership is related to the coach-athlete relationship in elite sport

The purpose of this study was to explore the association between coach leadership and the coach-athlete relationship. Eighty-one elite athletes (M = 20.4 years; SD = 3.8; 58% female and 42% male) responded to questionnaires pertaining to their coaches’ leadership behaviours and the quality of their relationship. The overall model for predicting the quality of the coach-athlete relationship according to perceived coach leadership behaviours explained 61% of the variance. Three transformational leadership behaviours were positively associated with the quality of the coach-athlete relationship: individualized consideration, appropriate role-modelling, and fostering acceptance of group goals and teamwork. Based on a gender comparison, men perceived higher levels of leadership pertaining to role-modelling and intellectual stimulation, in addition to higher levels of quality for the coach-athlete relationship. This research emphasizes the importance of engaging in transformational leadership behaviours with regards to associations with perceptions of the coach-athlete relationship in elite sport contexts.
Chinese Word Segmentation Based on Self‐Learning Model and Geological Knowledge for the Geoscience Domain

Chinese word segmentation (CWS) is the foundational work of geological report text mining and has an important influence on various tasks, such as named entity recognition and relation extraction. In recent years, the accuracy of the domain‐general CWS model has been limited by the domain and large scale of the training corpus, especially data on Chinese geological texts. Training these CWS models also requires much manually annotated data, which takes a large amount of time and effort. When applying these existing models/methods directly to the geoscience domain, the segmentation accuracy and performance will drop dramatically. To address this problem, we pretrain the Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformer (BERT), which can leverage unlabeled domain‐specific knowledge, on unlabeled Chinese geological text and then input them into a Bidirectional long short‐term memory and Conditional random field (BiLSTM‐CRF) model for extracting text features. Finally, the predicted tags are decoded by the CRF. The experimental results show that the F1 score of the proposed model reaches 96.2% on the constructed test set of geological texts. Additionally, experiments illustrate that our proposed model achieves comparable performance to that of other state‐of‐the‐art models, and the proposed cyclic self‐learning strategy can be further extended to other domains.
