The role of procedural justice and risk preference‐based mechanisms in acceptance of public policy
Authors: Xuan‐na Wu , Mengzhen Tang , Xue Wu 
Published: June 2023

AbstractThe current study examines the relationship between procedural justice and acceptance of public policy, the mediating effect of uncertainty as well as the moderating effect of risk preference in this relationship. Study 1 conducted a questionnaire survey on 154 residents from Beijing. The results showed that risk preference moderated the effect of procedural justice on acceptance of public policy. Accordingly, Study 2 conducted a scenario experiment on 136 college students from Beijing to examine the mediating role of uncertainty, while retesting the moderating mechanism of risk preference in more detail. Results showed that risk preference significantly moderated the effect of procedural justice on acceptance of public policy. Specifically, uncertainty was more negatively associated with acceptance of public policy among the risk‐averse individuals than risk‐seeking individuals. Risk preference indirectly moderated the relationship between procedural justice and acceptance of public policy by moderating the relationship between uncertainty and acceptance of public policy.

AbstractHeterogenous catalysis is important for future clean and sustainable energy systems. However, an urgent need to promote the development of efficient and stable hydrogen evolution catalysts still exists. In this study, ruthenium nanoparticles (Ru NPs) are in situ grown on Fe5Ni4S8 support (Ru/FNS) by replacement growth strategy. An efficient Ru/FNS electrocatalyst with enhanced interfacial effect is then developed and successfully applied for pH‐universal hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The Fe vacancies formed by FNS during the electrochemical process are found to be conducive to the introduction and firm anchoring of Ru atoms. Compared to Pt atoms, Ru atoms get easily aggregated and then grow rapidly to form NPs. This induces more bonding between Ru NPs and FNS, preventing the fall‐off of Ru NPs and maintaining the structural stability of FNS. Moreover, the interaction between FNS and Ru NPs can adjust the d‐band center of Ru NPs, as well as balance the hydrolytic dissociation energy and hydrogen binding energy. Consequently, the as‐prepared Ru/FNS electrocatalyst exhibits excellent HER activity and improved cycle stability under pH‐universal conditions. The developed pentlandite‐based electrocatalysts with low cost, high activity, and good stability are promising candidates for future applications in water electrolysis.
Porous Mo3P/Mo Nanorods as Efficient Mott‐Schottky Cathode Catalysts for Low Polarization Li‐CO2 Battery

Published: June 2023

AbstractLi‐CO2 battery with high energy density has aroused great interest recently, large‐scale applications are hindered by the limited cathode catalysis performance and execrably cycle performance. Herein, Mo3P/Mo Mott‐Schottky heterojunction nanorod electrocatalyst with abundant porous structure is fabricated and served as cathodes for Li‐CO2 batteries. The Mo3P/Mo cathodes exhibit ultra‐high discharge specific capacity of 10 577 mAh g−1, low polarization voltage of 0.15 V, and high energy efficiency of up to 94.7%. Mott‐Schottky heterojunction formed by Mo and Mo3P drives electron transfer and optimizes the surface electronic structure, which is beneficial to accelerate the interface reaction kinetics. Distinctively, during the discharge process, the C2O42− intermediates combine with Mo atoms to form a stable Mo‐O coupling bridge on the catalyst surface, which effectively facilitate the formation and stabilization of Li2C2O4 products. In addition, the construction of the Mo‐O coupling bridge between the Mott‐Schottky heterojunction and Li2C2O4 promotes the reversible formation and decomposition of discharge products and optimizes the polarization performance of the Li‐CO2 battery. This work provides another pathway for the development of heterostructure engineering electrocatalysts for high‐performance Li‐CO2 batteries.

Authors: Bembenutty Héfer 
Published: June 2023

AbstractAlong with the increased interest in self‐regulated learning research, there has been a high engrossment in computer‐based learning environments that facilitate instruction and promote learning. These two crucial pedagogical approaches have been identified as being valuable to educators and learners. They merit refreshed considerations in light of new advanced theories, research, and practices in digital technologies and self‐regulated learning. This chapter introduces this volume on contemporary self‐regulated learning research with computer‐based learning environments that facilitate teaching and learning in postsecondary education. Contributors to this volume are internationally recognized scholars in self‐regulation and interactive learning technology research. They give an overview of the current state of knowledge in their specific disciplines as they integrate theoretical approaches to self‐regulated learning with contemporary technology issues. The authors provide research‐based analyses of the topic with specific examples of how practitioners can apply new knowledge and offer concrete recommendations for action and future directions.
Teachers as self‐regulated learners: The role of multimodal data analytics for instructional decision making
Authors: Taub Michelle , Azevedo Roger 
Published: June 2023

AbstractThe goal of this chapter is to propose a cyclical process of how teachers can use multimodal multichannel data of cognitive, affective, metacognitive, motivational, and social processes to assist with the understanding of their own and their students’ self‐regulated learning (SRL), and their subsequent instructional decision making. What differentiates our proposed framework from theories of self‐regulated learning is that we propose this cycle occurs throughout all phases of self‐regulated learning and in real time. In this chapter, we outline each component of the framework, followed by a discussion of future steps that discuss our future view of the classroom with teachers and how they can use multimodal multichannel data to help them with their instructional decision making. We aim to make it clear that: (1) our proposed stages are non‐linear and interdependent, which represents the foundation of SRL theory and the structure of classroom learning, and (2) our proposed framework highlights that using any technological tool to help teachers, not replace them.
Foliage Feeders
Authors: Elkinton Joseph , Roehrig Artemis 
Published: June 2023

AbstractOne of the most significant categories of insect that cause damage to trees are the defoliators. While many orders of insects feed on tree foliage, in this chapter we will focus on Lepidoptera, as there are so many Lepidopteran larvae (caterpillars) that are known for their extensive tree damage. In this chapter we review the impact of foliage feeders on forest trees and stand composition, and the ways in which densities of these species or the defoliation they cause are monitored. We do not cover insects attacking ornamental trees in the landscape, nor do we cover insects feeding exclusively on foliage tips or buds.
Photon chiral memory effect stored on celestial sphere
Authors: Maleknejad Azadeh 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
This work introduces the chiral memory effect on the celestial sphere that measures the permanent change of electromagnetic fields by spin-dependent processes in bulk. Unlike the conventional memory effect based on the permanent soft shift in the gauge field itself, it is a permanent change in its spin angular momentum. The concept underlying the chiral memory (conventional memory) effect is optical spin torque (optical force) induction in bulk. Photons and EM radiation carry angular momentum, which is conserved without interactions. Chiral interactions with matter, medium, curvature, and theories with parity violation, i.e., axion-QED, transfers spin angular momentum to EM fields. In nature, such phenomena occur either on EM radiation (chiral memory) or in the vacuum of QED (vacuum chiral memory). It can be parametrized in terms of the photon’s topological (axial) current at null infinity. To elude the gauge ambiguity of the topological current, we use the transverse gauge and show it is the physical part of the current suggested by its cohomology structure.

Authors: Fan Min , Stephan Anna-Janina , Emmert-Fees Karl , Peters Annette , Laxy Michael 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
Aims/hypothesis
The aim of this study was to estimate the long-term health and economic consequences of improved risk factor control in German adults with type 2 diabetes.

Methods
We used the UK Prospective Diabetes Study Outcomes Model 2 to project the patient-level health outcomes and healthcare costs of people with type 2 diabetes in Germany over 5, 10 and 30 years. We parameterised the model using the best available data on population characteristics, healthcare costs and health-related quality of life from German studies. The modelled scenarios were: (1) a permanent reduction of HbA1c by 5.5 mmol/mol (0.5%), of systolic BP (SBP) by 10 mmHg, or of LDL-cholesterol by 0.26 mmol/l in all patients, and (2) achievement of guideline care recommendations for HbA1c (≤53 mmol/mol [7%]), SBP (≤140 mmHg) or LDL-cholesterol (≤2.6 mmol/l) in patients who do not meet the recommendations. We calculated nationwide estimates using age- and sex-specific quality-adjusted life year (QALY) and cost estimates, type 2 diabetes prevalence and population size.

Results
Over 10 years, a permanent reduction of HbA1c by 5.5 mmol/mol (0.5%), SBP by 10 mmHg or LDL-cholesterol by 0.26 mmol/l led to per-person savings in healthcare expenditures of €121, €238 and €34, and 0.01, 0.02 and 0.015 QALYs gained, respectively. Achieving guideline care recommendations for HbA1c, SBP or LDL-cholesterol could reduce healthcare expenditure by €451, €507 and €327 and gained 0.03, 0.05 and 0.06 additional QALYs in individuals who did not meet the recommendations. Nationally, achieving guideline care recommendations for HbA1c, SBP and LDL-cholesterol could reduce healthcare costs by over €1.9 billion.

Conclusions/interpretation
Sustained improvements in HbA1c, SBP and LDL-cholesterol control among diabetes patients in Germany can lead to substantial health benefits and reduce healthcare expenditures.

Published: June 2023

ZusammenfassungHintergrundInsgesamt treten Suizide bei Kindern und Jugendlichen zwar selten auf, sie stellen jedoch die zweithäufigste Todesursache nach Unfällen bei unter 18-Jährigen dar. Während die Unfalltodeszahlen von Kindern und Jugendlichen seit Jahren sinken, bleibt die Suizidrate nahezu konstant.MethodikIm Rahmen dieser Untersuchung wurden Fälle von Suiziden bei Kindern und Jugendlichen, die jünger als 18 Jahre waren, im Zeitraum von Januar 2001 bis Dezember 2022 retrospektiv ausgewertet.ErgebnisseWährend des betrachteten Zeitraumes konnten 13 Suizide von Kindern und Jugendlichen in die Erhebung eingeschlossen werden, wobei in 10 Fällen eine gerichtlich angeordnete Obduktion durchgeführt wurde. Das Alter der 8 betroffenen Mädchen und 5 betroffenen Jungen erstreckte sich vom 12. bis zum 17. Lebensjahr. Die Kinder und Jugendlichen verstarben am häufigsten durch Erhängen, das in einem Fall kurzzeitig überlebt wurde, sowie an den Folgen eines Polytraumas. Andere Todesursachen waren Intoxikationen mittels unterschiedlicher Substanzen sowie ein Kopfschuss. In 3 Fällen war eine Depression vorbekannt.DiskussionZwar sind Suizide im Kindes- und Jugendalter selten, dennoch stellen sie für beteiligte Personen immer ein tragisches Ereignis dar. Vor allem die Unterscheidung zwischen einem Suizid und einem Unfalltod kann schwierig sein. Hierbei kann insbesondere eine rechtsmedizinische Leichenschau am Ereignisort mit anschließender Obduktion entscheidend zur Aufklärung des Falls beitragen.

AbstractNicotine pouches are oral products that deliver nicotine without containing tobacco. Previous studies mainly focused on the determination of known tobacco toxicants, while yet no untargeted analysis has been published on unknown constituents, possibly contributing to toxicity. Furthermore, additives might enhance product attractiveness. We therefore performed an aroma screening with 48 different nicotine-containing and two nicotine-free pouches using gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry, following acidic and basic liquid–liquid extraction. For toxicological assessment of identified substances, European and international classifications for chemical and food safety were consulted. Further, ingredients listed on product packages were counted and grouped by function. Most abundant ingredients comprised sweeteners, aroma substances, humectants, fillers, and acidity regulators. 186 substances were identified. For some substances, acceptable daily intake limits set by European Food Safety Agency (EFSA) and Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives are likely exceeded by moderate pouch consumption. Eight hazardous substances are classified according to the European CLP regulation. Thirteen substances were not authorized as food flavorings by EFSA, among them impurities such as myosmine and ledol. Three substances were classified by International Agency for Research on Cancer as possibly carcinogenic to humans. The two nicotine-free pouches contain pharmacologically active ingredients such as ashwagandha extract and caffeine. The presence of potentially harmful substances may point to the need for regulation of additives in nicotine-containing and nicotine-free pouches that could be based on provisions for food additives. For sure, additives may not pretend positive health effects in case the product is used.
Nodal quintic del Pezzo threefolds and their derived categories
Authors: Xie Fei 
Published: June 2023

AbstractWe construct a Kawamata type semiorthogondal decomposition for the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves of nodal quintic del Pezzo threefolds, decomposing the bounded derived category into bounded derived categories of finite dimensional algebras. This is achieved by constructing birational maps from nodal quintic del Pezzo threefolds to quadric surface fibrations over the projective line.

channels (mitoBK) is regulated by a number of biochemical factors, including flavonoids. In particular, naringenin (Nar) and quercetin (Que) reached reasonable scientific attention due to their well-pronounced channel-activating effects. The open-reinforcing outcomes of Nar and Que on the mitoBK channel gating have been already reported. Nevertheless, the molecular picture of the corresponding channel–ligand interactions remains still to be revealed. In this work, we investigate the effects of the Nar and Que on the conformational dynamics of the mitoBK channel. In this aim, the cross-correlation-based analysis of the single-channel signals recorded by the patch-clamp method is performed. The obtained results in the form of phase space diagrams enable us to visually monitor the effects exerted by the considered flavonoids at the level of temporal characteristics of repetitive sequences of channel conformations. It turns out that the mitoBK channel activation by naringenin and quercetin does not lead to the change in the number of clusters within the phase space diagrams, which can be related to the constant number of available channel macroconformations regardless of the flavonoid administration. The localization and occupancy of the clusters of cross-correlated sequences suggest that mitoBK channel stimulation by flavonoids affects the relative stability of channel conformations and the kinetics of switching between them. For most clusters, greater net effects are observed in terms of quercetin administration in comparison with naringenin. It indicates stronger channel interaction with Que than Nar.
Socio-economic differentials of under-five mortality in Botswana: an application of the indirect estimation method
Authors: Monamo Tiro Theodore , Navaneetham Kannan , Keetile Mpho 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
Background
Socio-economic differentials in infant and under-five mortality exist in all countries worldwide, but the extent of differentials varies across countries. This study aimed to examine the socio-economic differentials of under-five mortality in Botswana within the framework of equality and equity.

Methods and findings
The analysis for this paper was based on the data from 2001 and 2011 Botswana Population and Housing Censuses and the 2017 Botswana Demographic Survey. One census method was used to indirectly estimate under-five mortality for different socio-economic groups using Princeton west model life tables. Results from this study revealed that socio-economic disparities in under-five mortality disfavouring the worse-off exist in all the selected socio-economic variables. The variations of socio-economic groups by mother’s place of residence and employment status have been narrowing over time, whereas the differences of socio-economic groups by mother’s level of education and marital status have been widening over time.

Conclusions
The findings of this study show that policies and interventions targeted at reducing inequalities should reach all socioeconomic groups across the country. Differences of each society and localities should be considered while designing and implementing policies and interventions.
Emotional responses in archival work

Published: June 2023

AbstractBuilding on previous work investigating the impact of exposure to (a) records with traumatic potentialities and (b) interactions with donors and community researchers whose suffering is documented in the archives, this study sought to better understand emotional aspects of archival work. Using a diary research methodology, 15 archivists engaged in diary keeping for approximately four months. What emerged was a broad set of events and experiences that triggered a wide range of emotional responses arising from archival work. This included: pre-existing emotional states and characterological traits; emotional exchanges in the workplace with colleagues and others; emotional demands of the work (including emotion work and emotional labour); team and leader interactions arising from group tasks and leader behaviour; and organizational policies, climate, resources and demands. This broader set of interactional factors forms the foundation on which traumatic and other troubling events are encountered. Future research must consider the nature of archival organizations and interactions within them that contribute to the overall working experience. In addition, archival organizations need to take responsibility for creating a culture that demonstrates respect and appreciation for workers, acknowledges the interpersonal challenges of the work, and provides supports for archivists who are shouldering the challenges.
Development of an Engineering Material with Increased Impact Strength and Heat Resistance from Recycled PET
Authors: Slezák Emese , Ronkay Ferenc , Bocz Katalin 
Published: June 2023

AbstractThe goal of the research was the concurrent enhancement of the impact strength and the heat resistance of recycled poly(ethylene terephthalate) (RPET). The morphology and the dynamic mechanical properties were examined at 0-5-10-15% ethylene-butyl-acrylate-glycidyl methacrylate (PTW) elastomer contents. The blends were crystallized for different time periods (0-20-40-60-180 s) at 150 °C and the morphology change during crystallization and its effect on impact resistance, stiffness, and thermal resistance were examined taking the three-phase model: crystalline fraction/mobile amorphous fraction/rigid amorphous fraction (CRF/MAF/RAF) into consideration. Based on DSC analyses it is proposed that before crystallization, the polymer chains covalently linked to PTW molecules contribute to the rigid amorphous phase (RAF). During thermal annealing, the relaxation of segments (which increases mobility) and ordering into crystals (which decreases mobility) have a complex effect and their resultant determines the ratio of the three phases and thereby also the macroscopic properties of the blends. After annealing the 15% PTW containing RPET blend at 150 °C for 180 s, a fivefold increase in notched impact resistance and a 50-fold increase in thermal resistance (expressed as E90’ value) were achieved compared to the neat RPET reference.
Adolescent Loneliness and Negative Affect during the COVID-19 Pandemic: The Role of Extraversion and Neuroticism
Authors: Gniewosz Gabriela 
Published: June 2023

AbstractThe COVID-19 pandemic had varied but significant effects on the lives of adolescents. This study aimed to examine the effects of extraversion and neuroticism on changes in loneliness and negative affect among adolescents during the pandemic. Longitudinal data were collected in three waves from 673 German adolescents and young adults (Mage = 16.8 years, SDage = 0.91; female = 59%), affected by local lockdowns. The data collection was one time before (T1) and two times during the pandemic (T2, T3). Change score models were used to assess the relationship between loneliness and negative affect with consideration of extraversion and neuroticism. Results showed that pre-pandemic loneliness was predictive of changes in negative affect during the pandemic, with higher loneliness predicting increases in negative affect. Negative affect did not predict later loneliness. Extraverts showed an increase in negative affect over time, particularly between pre-pandemic measurement and the first phase of the pandemic. Higher neuroticism appeared to have increased vulnerability for negative affect during the pandemic, as a rise in negative affect were found among these adolescents throughout the course of the pandemic. In conclusion, the study highlights the significant impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental health of adolescents and suggests that managing the pandemic during this specific developmental period is a challenge.
