Incentives and impacts: dissecting individual and collective cheating in organizations by Riyanto, Yohanes Eko, Wang, Yuxin

“…They are honest when their deception cannot change the group's decision but more likely to cheat for a higher collective benefit. However, when their gain is tied only to their own actions, hiding their intent to cheat is futile, leading to consistent cheating behavior regardless of its impact on the group. …”

Conditional prosociality in development: deconstructing social and materialistic factors that modulate early prosocial behavior by Lee, Kristy Jia Jin

“…In terms of resource sharing, children behaved less selfishly toward the victim than the transgressor, but remained selfish by and large as they were not more likely than chance to share their resources with either actress. …”

Nonvolatile resistive switching in Pt/LaAlO3/SrTiO3 heterostructures by Wu, Shuxiang, Luo, Xin, Turner, Stuart, Peng, Haiyang, Lin, Weinan, Ding, Junfeng, David, Adrian, Wang, Biao, Van Tendeloo, Gustaaf, Wang, Junling, Wu, Tom

“…We propose that the observed resistive switching is likely caused by the electric-field-induced drift of charged oxygen vacancies across the LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interface and the creation of defect-induced gap states within the ultrathin LaAlO3 layer. …”

Synthesis of planar conjugated macrocycle by secondary ketimine formation between m-phenylenediamine and synthesised aryl diketone by Huo, Jiongrui

“…While synthesis of the diketone was successful, synthesis of the target macrocycle was not, despite repeated attempts in a variety of solvent systems, azeotropic distillation to remove water, and in harsh reaction conditions. This was likely due to the stability of the C=O bond and steric hindrance against nucleophilic attack on the carbon atom of the carbonyl group of the diketone. …”
