The influence of the dynamic change of fear: how gender-specific messages affect anti-smoking intentions by Gu, Rui

“…Therefore, this study employed tailored fear appeals, the gender-specific graphic warning labels, to fill the conceptual gaps in the model. The findings showed that gender specificity as a message type and participants’ genders as an audience characteristic led to different changes of fear and, thus, varying levels of persuasion. …”

News framing of the 2022 Russian-Ukrainian conflict: a comparative analysis of CNN (USA) and CCTV (China) from a war and peace journalism perspective by Wang, Yao, Shahrul Nazmi Sannusi, Shamsiah Abd Kadir

“…However, there has been a lack of extensive investigation into the 2022 Russian-Ukrainian Conflict, specifically regarding the analysis of Western and Eastern media coverage from a war journalism and peace journalism perspective. To fill this vacancy, this study applied the Framing theory and the peace journalism model developed by Lee & Maslog (2005) to identify multiple strategies related to the themes, sources and war/peace journalism applied by CNN for America and CCTV for China. …”

Development and characterization of collagen type I and hyaluronic acid (HA) based interlaced scaffolds for tissue engineered heart valves (TEHVS) by Nazir, R

“…While evaluated against the criterion for tissue engineered heart valve (TEHV), S-3 and S-4 among interlaced scaffolds/compositions not only matched mechanically but also showed high degradation resistance which potentially made them as '<b>close-fit</b>' candidates. Findings from this thesis indicated that collagen/HA interlaced scaffolds have the potential to fill in the niche for designing an ideal TEHV. …”

Pareto Adaptive Robust Optimality via a Fourier–Motzkin Elimination lens by Bertsimas, Dimitris, ten Eikelder, Stefan C. M., den Hertog, Dick, Trichakis, Nikolaos

“…A worst-case optimal solution pair of here-and-now decisions and wait-and-see decisions is PARO if it cannot be Pareto dominated by another solution, i.e., there does not exist another worst-case optimal pair that performs at least as good in all scenarios in the uncertainty set and strictly better in at least one scenario. …”

Unveiling solvation dynamics of excited and ground states via ultrafast pump–dump–probe spectroscopy by Guo, Yuanyuan, Feng, Minjun, Kuang, Zhuoran, Abeywickrama, Chathura S., Pang, Yi, Xia, Andong

“…It is found that GSIs undergo slower reorganization than the PICT formation in the excited state of EPP due to the solvation effect with different dipole moments of ground states and excited states. These findings provide a comprehensive understanding of the full photocycle dynamics of both the ground and excited states, shedding light on the presence of hidden ground state behaviors.…”
