Is psychological capital the same in Singapore? : an exploration of psychological capital and its relationship with engagement in an Asian context by Aw, Cherie Qiu Ying, Seah, Charlene Kai Qi, Lee, Alex Yi

“…Further analyses revealed that defensive pessimism is a better predictor of engagement than optimism because defensive pessimism, efficacy, hope and resilience were better able to predict engagement than the composite PsyCap. …”

Measurement of stress evolution in pulse-reverse electrochemical deposition using Micro-Raman Spectroscopy by Yang, Qi Hua

“…And the stress in the copper layer is higher than that in the silicon layer. With an additive free electrolyte, the stress increased to around 40 Mpa, while it was about 200 Mpa in copper deposit. …”

Tournament induced incentives and analysts' boldness. by Yin, Huifang.

“…In addition, I show that interim losers’ changes in boldness are less informative than interim winners’. Collectively, my findings suggest that viewing financial analysts as participants of tournaments provides a useful framework for understanding analysts’ behavior.…”

Settling velocity of a porous object by Cheryl Lim Ling

“…However, it is only applicable in the limiting case of the creeping flow region, where Reynolds number is less than unity. In many industrial applications, the Reynolds number is not always less than unity thus there is a need to experiment with flows of high Reynolds number. …”

Wooferland by Tan, Jedidah Chu Yi

“…More than just a critique intended to address the issues of animal rights, Wooferland strives to explore a possible utopian futuristic city where all urban dogs would have the freedom to bask in pleasure and entertainment, even during the seemingly mundane hours of their daily lives that is a result of their owners’ hectic schedules. …”

The k-walks in 2K2-free graphs by Gao, Mou

“…Generally, being prism-Hamiltonian is a stronger property than admitting k-walks for all k\ge2, but weaker than being traceable. …”

How to choose a law review: an empirical study by Cofone, I, Malé, P-JG

“…School ranking correlates with impact factor better than it does with case citations, with surprising outliers. …”

How culture shapes consumer responses to anthropomorphic products by Baskentli, S, Hadi, R, Lee, L

“…Anecdotal evidence suggests that Eastern consumers respond more favorably to anthropomorphic products than their Western counterparts. In the present work, we examine the validity of this common intuition and uncover the specific cultural dimension underlying this difference in consumer response. …”

Digital Media and Social Theory: The View from Xi’s China and Modi’s India by Schroeder, R

“…Media reflect society imperfectly, but there is much to learn from two countries where the un-gatekept online public sphere is relatively more important than the traditional gatekept public sphere.…”

Dissecting the sinews of power: international trade and the rise of Britain’s fiscal-military state, 1689-1823 by Dal Bó, E, Hutkova, K, Leucht, L, Yuchman, N

“…Influential work, e.g., Brewer’s Sinews of Power, attributed increased fiscal capacity to the taxation of domestic, rather than traded, goods: excise revenues, coarsely associated with domestic goods, grew faster than customs revenues. …”

Fast and accurate variant identification tool for sequencing-based studies by Gaston, Jeffry M., Alm, Eric J., Zhang, An-Ni

“…This accuracy extends to variant identification in virus samples, including SARS-CoV-2, particularly with significantly fewer false negative indels than bcftools. The high accuracy of QuickVariants is further demonstrated by its detection of a greater number of Omicron-specific indels (5 versus 0) and point mutations (61 versus 48–54) than bcftools in sewage metagenomes predominated by Omicron variants. …”

Dip coating of bidisperse particulate suspensions by Jeong, Deok-Hoon, Lee, Michael Ka Ho, Thiévenaz, Virgile, Bazant, Martin Z, Sauret, Alban

“…We show that the effective viscosity approach is still valid in the regime where the coating film is thicker than the diameter of the largest particles, although bidisperse suspensions are less viscous than monodisperse suspensions of the same solid fraction. …”

Variational study of the two‐impurity spin–boson model with a common Ohmic bath : ground‐state phase transitions by Zhou, Nengji, Zhang, Yuyu, Lü, Zhiguo, Zhao, Yang

“…With the linear grid of the Ohmic spectral density, numerical calculations herein produce a much better description of the ground states with lower energies than other calculations employing a logarithmic grid with a discretization factor far greater than unity. …”

Measurement and error analysis of Cu film thickness with Ta barrier layer on wafer for CMP application by Qu, Zilian, Wang, Wensong, Li, Xueli, Li, Qi, Zheng, Yuanjin

“…Conversely, the measured thickness of Cu film decreases when Ta barrier layer is thinner than the threshold. Then, a compensation method is presented, and the error of thickness measurement of Cu film is reduced to less than 6 nm.…”

Investigation on effective solutions against insider attacks by Ang, Jun Hao

“…From the results, it can be concluded that the performance of feature selection methods is more stable than feature extraction methods but the degree of improvements in terms of accuracy and data storage reduction by feature extraction methods are far more better than that by feature selection methods. …”
