Visual plant imagery and consumer behavior

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Although research suggests a positive effect of plant life on wellbeing, little to no attention has been devoted to the impact of visual plant life imagery on consumer behavior. The current research aims to fill this gap. If natural environments have a positive impact on mood and productivity, this suggests that natural environments may also positively impact consumer decisions. Because most marketing efforts happen virtually and not in-person, the current work examines whether visual exposure to plant imagery has a positive effect on consumer behaviors in different contexts. Essay 1 explores the effect of visual plant imagery on real estate listings. We propose that exposure to biophilic images (i.e., images depicting plant life) reduces cognitions associated with resource scarcity, which mitigates feelings of anxiety and results in higher property valuation. Study 1 analyzed a large, unstructured data set of 40,294 sold homes associated with 569,828 digital images. We first built a biophilic image classifier using a two-stage deep learning algorithm (Faster R-CNN) to classify the home images. Subsequent econometric analyses indicate that homes depicted with more biophilic images exhibit higher transaction values. The effect is stronger in areas of greater resource scarcity, in support of our theoretical framework. Studies 2 and 3, which consist of highly controlled experiments, replicate the key results from Study 1 and provide evidence of the underlying psychological process. Essay 2 examines the effect of plant imagery in advertisements. We propose that incorporating plants as part of the visual elements in advertisements activates perceptions of brand/product warmth, which subsequently enhances advertisement effectiveness. In Study 1, an empirical analysis of 69,569 Instagram posts by 48 apparel brands shows that posts with plant imagery have more consumer engagement. Study 2 directly manipulated the presence of plants in an advertisement for a product and measured consumer perception of warmth and advertisement effectiveness to test the proposed underlying mechanism. Study 3 tested the moderating role of product warmth, where we found that the positive effect of visual plant imagery on advertisement effectiveness is diminished when the product itself is already perceived as warm.
Synergistic antibacterial effects of methanolic extract of Melissa officinalis L. and Mouthwash Vi-one on Streptococcus mutant and Streptococcus sanguinis

Field: Dentistry (Health Sciences)

Introduction: The use of chemical and vegetable compounds reduces the microbial plaque of the tooth. The aim of this study was to investigate the synergistic antibacterial effects of methanolic extract of Melissa officinalis L. (Lemon balm)and mouthwash Vi-one on Streptococcus mutant and Streptococcus sanguinis. Methods: Methanolic extract of lemon balm was prepared by Soxhlet method. The concentrations of 250, 125, 62.5, 31.25, 15.26, 7.81, 3.9, 1.95, 0.97 and 0.48 mg/ml of methanol extract and mouthwash prepared and mixed in the same proportion.Agar well diffusion, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) were used to determine the antibacterial effect. Results: The highest non-growth zones were 21 mm for Streptococcus mutant and 22 mm for Streptococcus sanguinis which observed at a concentration of 250 mg/ml. The best value of MIC and the MBC for both bacteria were 7.81 and 62.5 mg/ml, respectively. As the concentration increased, antibacterial activity increased as well (p≤0.05). Conclusion: The results of this study showed the synergistic antibacterial effects of lemon balmand mouthwash on bacteria. More in vivo researches are needed to confirm and use the above combination.
Conceptualisations of agoraphobia: implications for mental health promotion

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Agoraphobia emerged as a named disorder in the 1870s. Since then a wide variety of models - both clinical and non-clinical - have been devised to explain it. This paper describes four of these models to demonstrate and explore the significance for mental health promotion of their different conceptualisations of agoraphobia in relation to the city, to public space and to the individual. Of particular interest is the shift in the gendering of agoraphobia: while late 19th century accounts tended to feature men, by the mid 20th century the archetype of someone who experiences agoraphobia had become female. The implications of this variance and subsequent decisions about intervention and cure, it is argued, demonstrate the importance of conceptualisation in debates about mental health promotion.

On a generalization of the Rapini-Papoular expression of the surface free energy for nematic liquid crystals

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

The effect of the K 13 and K 1 elastic constants on the equilibrium orientation of nematic liquid crystals is considered. Our analysis shows that these terms can be ignored if the surface energy is modified in a particular way. In this manner the difficulties in the elastic theory of nematic liquid crystals connected to the proper minimization of the free energy can be solved. Several suggestions have been made in the past to overcome this lacuna in the elastic theory of nematics. In our paper we suggest a different approach leading to a new surface free energy.The surface variation of the nematic average orientation induced by K 13 and K 1 is also estimated.
Improved Duplexing Techniques Employing Gas TR and Semiconductor Limiter Devices

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The TR Tube Dilemma. The present-day TR tube, through constant improvements, has approached a point where basically all parameters, with the exception of one or two, can be optimized. The designer, at best, can satisfy a specific rigid requirement only at the expense of another. This typically involves a "trade off" in performance with respect to such characteristics as crystal protection, life, recovery time or power handling capability.
Corrected f-tests in the general linear model

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

The theory of corrected F-tests in the general linear modeL with correlated errors is studied in this paper. Strictly unbiased F-tests are constructed in the presence of a large class of known non-identity correlation structures. These are generalized likelihood ratio tests which are easily computed. Critical points from the standard F-tables can be used to provide an exact test of desired size.
Experimental Study of Hydroformed Al6061T4 Elliptical Tube Samples under Different Internal Pressures

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

In order to achieve crack free elliptical shape under controlled conditions, an experimental set-up was designed and fabricated. This setup consists of three hydraulic cylinders, an intensifier, a hydraulic power pack, storage tanks, forming die, and all parts are controlled by a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) system. The elliptical samples can be achieved through proper control of internal pressure and axial force with proper sealing. Experimental work has been carried out with different magnitudes of internal pressure and constrained conditions of axial force. Initially die of elliptical shape has been designed and modeled in Abaqus to successfully achieve the particular shape of the Al6061T4 tube under different internal pressure. The fabricated tube hydroforming machine set-up is highly effective for forming 0.5 mm-2 mm thick Al6061T4 alloy tube samples. The Experimental test has been carried out at 12.7 mm outer diameter, 175 mm length and 0.5 mm thick Al6061T4 samples. Bulge height parameters measured at different points of regular distance gap on the axial direction of the tube length and corner radius found at different pressures range of the samples are plotted under different internal pressures. Samples having an 18.7 mm major elliptical bulge were achieved during the experiment. The experimental data was validated by simulation results.
The Influence of Augmented Reality (AR) on the Motivation of High School Students

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Augmented reality (AR) is a technology whose presence has increased in the field of education in recent years. However, its role in secondary education has not been thoroughly explored. Therefore, this research aims to analyse the influence of AR on the motivation of students at this stage while considering gender and previous information and communication technology (ICT) experience. This research uses a quantitative methodology that follows Keller’s Attention, Relevance, Confidence and Satisfaction (ARCS) motivational model. We implemented this instructional design model for a sample of 321 students from the same educational centre. They were divided into two categories: an experimental group (n = 159) and a control group (n = 162). The control group were studied in a slide-based learning environment, while the experimental group worked with an AR mobile application. For data collection, we used the Instructional Materials Motivation Survey (IMMS). The results showed that the students who used AR displayed greater motivation, highlighting great interest in the integration of this technology into the learning process. However, no significant differences were obtained in the motivation of the students according to gender and previous experience with the use of ICT. In conclusion, this research shows that the use of AR improves motivation in secondary education.
Influences of Applying Nitrogen Fertilizer on Formation and Accumulation of HMW-GS in Wheat

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Under different levels of nitrogen fertilizer,HMW-GS of two different spike-type wheats appeared in 10 to 15 days after the flower.The nitrogenous fertilizer treatments did not affect the time of HMW-GS form.Subunits 1Bx7+1By9 emerged earlier than subunits 1Dx2+1Dy12.Accumulation of HMW-GS in different wheat varieties under different nitrogen levels was in accordance with equation of the third degree.Only the growth rates of growth curve in different stages was different.Little change was found in the percentage of each subunit in the course of accumulation.The percentage of y-subunit was higher than that of x-subunit.
Knowledge of first aid management of epistaxis among medical interns attending King Fahad Armed Forces Hospital in Saudi Arabia

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Aim: The aim of this study is to explore the knowledge of medical interns about first aid in the management of epistaxis. Materials and Methods: An anonymous, cross-sectional, and validated survey-based study was conducted in January 2020 at King Fahad Armed Forces Hospital, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Results: A total of 57 medical interns responded to the survey. The vast majority of survey respondents were male (78.9%) and single (80.7%). Around 57.9% of the respondents declared that epistaxis is regarded as one of the emergency situations. A sum of 71.9% of medical interns correctly identified "finger nail trauma" as the most common cause of epistaxis. In addition, while 71.9% of medical interns correctly answered, "sitting with head tilted forward" as the proper management position for a patient with epistaxis, only 52.6% of medical interns correctly answered, "pinching the lower cartilaginous part of the nose" as the primary measure to stop epistaxis. When medical interns were asked about what to do if the patient continued to bleed from the nose in the emergency room after the primary measures had been done, only 50.9% of medical interns correctly answered with "refer the patient to an otolaryngologist to take further care." Using two-tailed Chi-square test, there were no differences in the percentages of correct answers among the surveyed medical interns according to gender (P > 0.05). With regard to the sources of information about first aid in the management of epistaxis, the top selected source by medical interns was "self-taught" (52%), followed by "medical textbooks" (19%). Conclusion: The surveyed interns had unsatisfactory knowledge about epistaxis first aid. There is a pressing need to establish solid curricular, extracurricular, and institutional measures to increase the intern's awareness of first aid knowledge in the management of epistaxis.
Interstitial Pulmonary Fibrosis

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Keepingthe Heart Going" (19 June, p. 1566) we believe that incorrect emphasis has been placed upon the risks of the production of ventricular fibrillation by pacing on the T wave in patients who have returned to sinus rhythm.All proved instances of ventricular fibrilla- tion, in our experience, have occurred only with the epicardial system of pacing, and only in the immediate post-thoracotomy period.'It seems that the risk of ventricular fibrillation is highest when the threshold for the production of ventricular fibrillation is lowered from superficial myocardial damage caused by stitching the electrode on to the epicardium and from alterations in pul- monary ventilation due to the thoracotomy.Another facotor was probably the unnecessarily high power of the earlier units.Now that we use endocardial jugular sys- tems for long-term pacing, thereby avoiding a thoracotomy, the risk of ventricular fibrillation must be greatly reduced, and we have never seen it in our experience of over 100 patients treated by endocardial pacing.-We

A shipwreck cargo of Sevillian pottery from the Studland Bay wreck, Dorset, UK

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This article is an account of the pottery found at the Studland Bay wreck, Poole. The assemblage includes an important group of Spanish pottery made at Seville at the beginning of the 16th century, including the largest group of lustreware and blue-and-purple wares ever found in an archaeological context. These wares were probably carried as cargo and collected at a stopping-off point along the itinerary of the ship, probably to be sold in northern Europe
Quantum Fermi's Golden Rule

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

We shall revisit the conventional adiabatic or Markov approximation, showing its intrinsic failure in describing the proper quantum-mechanical evolution of a generic subsystem interacting with its environment. In particular, we shall show that -contrary to the semiclassical case- the Markov limit does not preserve the positive-definite character of the corresponding density matrix, thus leading to highly non-physical results. To overcome this problem, we shall propose an alternative adiabatic procedure which (i) in the semiclassical limit reduces to the standard Fermi's golden rule, and (ii) describes a genuine Limblad evolution, thus providing a reliable/robust treatment of energy-dissipation and dephasing processes.

Developing experimental methods for identifying the sites of action of intraspinal microstimulation

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

Intraspinal microstimulation (ISMS) is a novel electrical stimulation approach to restore standing and ambulation in people with spinal cord injury. The technique entails inserting an array of microwires into the lumbosacral enlargement of the spinal cord to activate neuronal networks that control locomotion. Additionally, ISMS can be utilized to investigate the organization of these networks. In the present study, experimental methodology was developed to map the distribution of ISMS-activated neurons using immunohistochemistry to label c-Fos, an activity-dependent marker. The influence on c-Fos expression of the following conditions was studied: decerebration, laminectomy, microwire implantation, and ISMS. Data revealed that microwire implantation and decerebration minimally influenced c-Fos, while a laminectomy substantially increased c-Fos expression. Furthermore, results indicated that it is vital to monitor stimulation and adjust stimulus amplitude throughout the duration of stimulation. Using these data, a protocol was established that would aid in mapping the ISMS activated neuronal networks.
Massively Multilingual Word Embeddings

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

We introduce new methods for estimating and evaluating embeddings of words in more than fifty languages in a single shared embedding space. Our estimation methods, multiCluster and multiCCA, use dictionaries and monolingual data; they do not require parallel data. Our new evaluation method, multiQVEC-CCA, is shown to correlate better than previous ones with two downstream tasks (text categorization and parsing). We also describe a web portal for evaluation that will facilitate further research in this area, along with open-source releases of all our methods.
Surgical Treatment of Vertical Ocular Motility Disorders of Supranuclear Origin

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Vertical ocular motility disorders of supranuclear origin can be congenital or acquired later in life. They produce complex forms of strabismus that require specialized surgical management to restore ocular alignment, eliminate torticollis, treat diplopia, and restore normal lid position. For each condition, surgical management must be individualized to address multiple impediments to fusion. This article outlines the surgical management of three common types of supranuclear vertical strabismus.
Managerial Competence Energizes Total Factor Productivity of Enterprises

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

In the environment of enterprise total factor productivity declining year by year, it is particularly important to find the factors that stimulate production efficiency. Enterprise managers are the important makers of production strategy, but how their own ability affects enterprise total factor productivity has not been clearly defined. In this paper, A sample of Shanghai and Shenzhen A-share listed companies from 2007 to 2022 is selected to test the impact of managers' ability on the total factor productivity of enterprises, explore the moderating effect of digital transformation degree index and supply chain efficiency, and divide enterprises into high-tech and high-pollution groups for in-depth analysis. The results show that manager competence has a significant promoting effect on the total factor productivity of enterprises. Both digital transformation and supply chain efficiency will strengthen the promoting effect of manager competence on the total factor productivity of enterprises. In high-tech and high-polluting enterprises, the promoting effect of manager competence is stronger. This paper expands the research on manager competence, explores one of the driving forces of firm TFP, and provides inspiration for enterprises to make strategic choices.
