RIFLESSIONI SU GENERE GRAMMATICALE E LINGUA INCLUSIVA: A CHE PUNTO SIAMO?
Authors: Lo Duca Maria G.
Published: January 2025

Mi propongo di fare il punto sulle due principali questioni che sono state sollevate a proposito del cosiddetto “sessismo” della lingua italiana: quindi da una parte la femminilizzazione dei nomi di cariche e professioni; dall’altra il dibattito sul genere maschile cosiddetto non marcato, quando considerato inclusivo o sovraesteso. I due temi sono indagati a partire dall’assetto morfo-sintattico dell’italiano, che rende possibili o al contrario difficilmente praticabili le soluzioni via via individuate.
 
Reflections on grammatical gender and inclusive language: where are we at?
I propose to take stock of the two main issues that have been raised regarding the so-called "sexism" of the Italian language: on the one hand the feminization of titles and names of professions; on the other hand, the debate on the so-called unmarked male gender, when considered inclusive or overextended. The two themes are investigated starting from the particular morpho-syntactic structure of Italian, which makes the various solutions identified possible to adopt, or else difficult or practically impossible.

Authors: Jin Xin
Published: January 2025

Due to their occupational exposure, Chinese security guards are a vulnerable population prone to stress and mental health disorders, which in turn negatively affect their physical health and job performance. Previous studies have established the causal relationships between depression and alcohol abuse, anxiety and alcohol abuse, and alcohol abuse and PTSD. This study investigates the relationships between depression and PTSD and anxiety and PTSD, with alcohol abuse as a mediator. A total of 2872 Chinese security guards completed an online survey assessing depression, anxiety, PTSD, and alcohol abuse. Mediation analysis examined whether alcohol abuse mediated the relationship between depression and PTSD, and anxiety and PTSD. The results indicate that alcohol abuse acts as a mediator in the relationships between anxiety and PTSD, and both conditions are substantial predictors of PTSD. According to this study, anxiety and PTSD are highly correlated, as is depression with PTSD, and alcohol abuse acts as a mediator in this link. This study emphasizes the value of treating mental health conditions holistically as opposed to concentrating on isolated symptoms, underscoring the need for tailored psychological services and policy measures to support this vulnerable population.

Authors: Liu Jiapeng
Published: January 2025

In modern society, the level of education is improving rapidly, followed by various educational problems. The importance of period of junior high school is obvious. The study pressure significantly influence the students' physical and mental health in this period. Most parents are very upset about the adverse reactions of students when they suffer from study stress. Therefore, this study will provide effective suggestions by analyzing the the influence of learning stress on learning burnout and academic self-efficacy. This study uses a literature review to make the research findings more unbiased and understandable. The results indicate that learning stress and learning burnout are strongly positively correlated. When faced with learning pressure, many middle school students will display negative emotions such as retreat, delay, and even quit up, which exhausts them. The results suggest that learning stress and academic self-efficacy are negatively correlated and interact. When learning pressure rises, students' learning self-efficacy falls, and when self-efficacy rises, the opposite occurs. In addition to creating psychological lessons on how students perceive learning pressure, educators can increase students' academic self-efficacy and learning self-confidence and adjust study pressure and intensity to a level that is generally acceptable to students.

Authors: Liu Xulan
Published: January 2025

With development of society, more and more parents pay attention to the problem about peer intercourse of children, but maladaptive parenting style is likely to have a negative impact on children's peer interaction. In order to explore the influence of parenting style on children's peer interaction behavior and peer interaction relationship, this study uses the literature review method to research and analyze the past Chinese and foreign survey results. Children under authoritative parenting style perform better in peer interaction. Children under authoritarian or neglected parenting style are more likely to be timid in peer interaction and be neglected. Children with indulgent parenting style produce more aggressive behavior in peer interaction and are often rejected by other children. Parents can change their parenting styles by changing their parents' educational concepts. At the same time, parents should maintain consistency in the upbringing of children. The parents also can provide children with opportunities for peer interaction, correctly guide them, and help children improve their level of peer interaction.
Rituals in Western Museum: Through the Construction of the Tibetan Shrine
Authors: Guo Xiaoyan
Published: January 2025

The paper analyzes the establishment of Tibetan shrines within Western museums and their function in crafting ritualized encounters for attendees, all the while perpetuating Western stereotypes and Orientalist viewpoints regarding Buddhism. Through the analysis of the aesthetic design, immersive environments, and interactive elements of these shrine displays, the study reveals how museums position Tibetan artifacts to evoke a sense of the sacred, detaching visitors from the secular world. It emphasizes how the museum experience reflects ritual participation, transforming visitors into active participants rather than passive observers. Furthermore, the article evaluates how these carefully crafted experiences sustain a romanticized and superficial perception of Tibetan culture, which is deeply embedded in Western ideals of spirituality and serenity. While these museum shrines may offer visitors an entry into an idealized version of Tibetan Buddhism, they also contribute to a broader narrative of Orientalism that distorts and simplifies the complexities of Tibetan identity and religious practices.

The rapid development of digital technology has made international interactions more convenient and frequent, and nowadays, the rapid change and development of artificial intelligence has brought unprecedented challenges to the international law. The international community has put forward an urgent demand for the improvement and development of the international law system. On the one hand, the wide application of AI in international trade has had a great impact and influence on the global value management; on the other hand, the development of AI has put forward new challenges to the relevant rules of the WTO, which include, but are not limited to, whether the existing World Trade Organisation (WTO) treaties are applicable to AI in the context of the digital economy, such as the GATT, GATS; whether existing WTO rules are formulated with the application of AI, such as GATT, GATS; whether emerging technologies are taken into account in the formulation of existing WTO rules; and the challenge of AI to the existing legal system system. The World Trade Organisation (WTO), as the most important intergovernmental trade organisation in the world and the international community today, still plays an important role in regulating and deploying the development of AI technologies in the international trading system. Based on this, this paper takes the WTO as the research perspective to explore the impact of the digital economy and the development of artificial intelligence technology on international law, combining the existing rules system of the WTO and the characteristics of the development of artificial intelligence technology, research and argumentation to deal with the impact of the strategy, with a view to guaranteeing better development of artificial intelligence technology for the WTO, better service to mankind to offer advice.
Challenges and Countermeasures in Cross-Border Data Collection
Authors: Wang Jia
Published: January 2025

In the context of globalization, cross-border data collection has become a crucial tool for countries combating transnational crime. China primarily employs international criminal judicial assistance to conduct cross-border data collection. While this approach respects national sovereignty, it faces practical challenges such as low efficiency and limited authority. In contrast, the United States and the European Union adopt a more flexible data controller model, achieving robust cross-border data collection capabilities. However, conflicts in data sovereignty and differences in legal systems hinder the direct application of these models in China. This paper employs a comparative research methodology to analyze the legislative frameworks and backgrounds of the U.S. and EU cross-border data collection approaches, identifying reasons these models are unsuitable for direct implementation in China. Building on insights from these legislative models, the paper proposes recommendations such as increasing the number of bilateral judicial assistance agreements and establishing a categorized data management system, aiming to provide a reference for China's future development in this field.

The Role of Art Audience in the Changing Times: From Passive Acceptance to Participation
Authors: Lin Yannan
Published: January 2025

In the history of art, the audience has always been a fundamental component, not only as the appreciator of artworks but also as the interpreter and active participant in the art experience. The audiences engagement extends beyond passive observation, as they contribute to the dialogue and interpretation of art, shaping its meaning and significance within different cultural and historical contexts. Over time, with the continuous evolution of society, culture, science, and technology, the forms of art production and distribution have undergone significant transformations. As a result, the role of the audience has also evolved. In contemporary society, the traditional boundaries between artist and viewer have blurred, with audiences taking on roles as creators, curators, and critics. This shift reflects the growing inclusiveness of art, where audiences are no longer confined to passive consumption but are increasingly active in the creation and dissemination of art. Thus, the art audience's role has become more dynamic and multifaceted.

Authors: Ge Ruoyu
Published: January 2025

With the rapid development of AI technology, AI chatbots offer new possibilities for intimate relationships. This study conducted in-depth interviews with 23 users who had established intimate relationships with Replika. The investigation identified the reasons for the emergence of intimate relationships between humans and AI chatbots, the generation mechanism and the impact on real-world interaction practices. It shows that, under the dual influence of technological progress and the emotional dilemmas prevalent in modern society, traditional pseudo-intimacy is gradually shifting toward cyber romance. The shaping of cyber romance between people and their AI companions is a complex mechanism that interacts with multiple factors. Intimacy with AI companions profoundly impacts users' real-life social practices, both positively and negatively. Meanwhile, this study explored the critical role emotional projection plays in human-AI intimate relationships, the modern emotional responsibilities and moral boundaries reshaped by human-AI intimate relationships, and the benefits and risks brought about by AI companions as emotional substitutes. This study observed the development of human-machine relationships to understand how AI can reshape the emotional landscape by transitioning human-machine relationships from pseudo-intimacy to real intimacy.

The Impact of Board Gender Diversity and CFO Compensation on Financial Sustainability in China: A Power Distance Perspective
Authors: Xin Kunying
Published: January 2025

This study focuses on how female diversity on the board and the compensation of the chief financial officer (CFO) affect the long-term financial health of Chinese companies. The focus of the study is on how the cultural factor of power distance affects this relationship. The study uses data from 4,509 Chinese A-share listed companies from 2009 to 2023 and adopts multiple regression analysis to study how gender diversity and CFO compensation affect corporate performance and performance in areas such as governance, finance, and environment (ESG). By controlling for factors such as company size, debt, and revenue growth, the results show that gender diversity on the board and fair CFO compensation mechanisms can significantly affect company survival. Obviously, power distance as a cultural factor will weaken these positive effects, especially in companies with highly concentrated power. The results reveal the importance of incorporating cultural context when formulating corporate governance policies and provide a reference for promoting gender diversity and executive compensation mechanisms to better achieve the company's long-term sustainable development goals.

ALK-inhibiting drugs for ALK-positive NSCLC
Authors: Ni Wenjie
Published: January 2025

Lung cancer has already been one of the major reasons of cancer-related deaths, with anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearranged non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)taking up about 5%. This type of tumor has a high rate of central nervous system metastasis and standard chemotherapy has limited effect to effectively control progression. ALK-targeted inhibitors (ALK-TKIs) have notably extended the lifespan of patients with ALK-positive NSCLC, and third-generation inhibitors, in particular, have made significant progress in overcoming drug resistance and increasing intracranial activity, with particular efficacy in patients with brain metastases. However, these improvements still do not fully meet clinical needs, and drug resistance and adverse effects remain major challenges. This article reviews the molecular mechanisms of ALK rearrangements, the efficacy and resistance mechanisms of various generations of inhibitors, and discusses future therapeutic strategies and challenges.
The Enterprise Green Transformation and Supplier Digitization
Authors: Yang Mengran , Li Jianing
Published: January 2025

Clarifying the impact and role mechanism of enterprise green transformation on supplier digitization helps to promote the national supply-side structural reform, supply chain optimization, and high-quality economic development, and to inject a new impetus for the reform of digitization and greening of the global supply chain. Based on the supplier data and green transformation data of listed enterprises in the CNRDS database from 2008 to 2022, a fixed-effects regression analysis model is constructed to explore the role mechanism of enterprise green transformation on supplier digitization. It is found that corporate green transformation significantly promotes supplier digitization, and this conclusion still holds after a series of robustness. The key mechanism suggests that corporate green transformation promotes supplier digitization by increasing supply chain concentration and reducing supply chain risk. Further analysis shows that government subsidies and environmental regulations have different moderating effects. This paper provides a micro-foundation for promoting supplier digitization based on supply chain linkages, which has important implications for global supply chain restructuring and constructing a new pattern.

Digital inclusive finance, including green credit and green finance, can help the region's economy and industry become more sustainable, reducing urban carbon emissions. This study employs a fixed-effects panel model to investigate the relationship between digital inclusive finance and urban carbon emission intensity. The analysis focuses on 27 central cities within the Yangtze River Delta, covering the period from 2011 to 2019. In addition, the underlying mechanisms for how digital inclusive finance affects urban carbon emissions will be explored. The study yielded the following findings:1) The emergence of digital inclusive financial services initially results in an uptick in carbon emissions, which is subsequently followed by a decline. Extended reach and intensified use are the main drivers of carbon emission reduction. 2) Digital finance impacts carbon emissions in different ways by city tier. It is relatively insignificant in lower tier cities, but significant in higher tier cities. 3) The carbon-reducing effect of digital inclusive finance is amplified by green technology, increasing its overall impact.

The application of deep learning in stock price prediction has actually obtained boosting importance because of its capacity to capture complex patterns in financial information. This study uses Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks to anticipate stock costs utilizing both day-to-day trading information and high-frequency minute-level information. For the day-to-day trading data, 42 stock datasets were analyzed, with 37 utilized for training and 5 booked for testing. High-frequency data, characterized by minute-by-minute changes, called for the development of specific designs for each stock. Each design incorporated differing configurations of LSTM devices and technical indicators to enhance predictive accuracy. The experimental outcomes demonstrated that the inclusion of technical indicators led to a reduction in prediction error, as measured by Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE). This highlights the capacity of LSTM networks, especially when boosted with technical indicators, for improving stock price forecasting accuracy throughout various timeframes.

Experiencing the effects of the global epidemic era the medical device industry is standing on the threshold of a new era full of challenges and opportunities. As a highly knowledge-intensive industry, the medical device industry cannot develop without continuous product innovation and technological improvement, which provides start-ups with a power source for sustained growth. This research starts from the R&D product stage of start-ups and takes a closer look at the growth of start-ups along the key development stage of the prototype, type examination, clinical, licensing, and promotion. Through this process, the research can identify the characteristics and challenges that the company exhibits at different growth stages, as well as the main goals of each stage. After analysis and summarization, this research aims to reveal the most important innovation capabilities that start-ups need to develop in the early stages and how this capability affects a company's ability to access financing resources. Innovation capability is seen as a long-term investment, and the financing resources that match it should be correspondingly long-term. For traditional debt financing methods that rely on stable cash flows, highly innovative firms may find that they do not have easy access to these financing resources. Therefore, while pursuing innovation, start-ups need to explore financing modes that are compatible with their innovative capacity to ensure that they have access to sustained financial support in their pursuit of long-term development.
OMX20 and Shanghai Composite Index Forecasts Based on ARIMA and ETS Models

The stock index is a comprehensive reflection of the overall performance of a range of company stocks within a country. These companies are often an important part of the national economy, so changes in the index can directly reflect the rise and fall of the national economy. Things like increased consumption and investment, increased corporate profits, etc. will increase stock prices, and the index will rise eventually. Falling demand and rising costs will lead to a decline in corporate profits, resulting in a decline in stock prices and weak index performance. Stock index forecasting is a very important task in the financial market. Its main purpose is to help investors, governments, businesses and other stakeholders develop strategies and respond to market changes in advance. Therefore, in this paper, ARIMA and ETS models are used to predict OMX20 Index and Shanghai Composite Index, which are from developing and developed countries Denmark and China. The results showed that based on the RMSE metric, the ARIMA model (SARIMA model) outperforms the ETS model, making it the better choice for forecasting both stock indices. This paper compares ARIMA and ETS models to provide a new perspective for stock price forecasting and a new idea for stock price forecasting.
