The luxury goods industry has many tactics to better sell and market its products to the upper class. More recently, there has been a shift in the consumer’s interest in luxury products from only the rich to now the growing middle-class. Due to recent social and economic shifts, the tendency to buy more expensive goods has increased. Corporations have adapted to this, with examples like Supreme using limited timed drops to entice consumers and give the illusion of scarcity. These concepts have been so successful that even the food industry has applied them. Also, new jobs like being an influencer/content creator have given way to new ways to publicize luxury goods. This shift has also created a way for the average teenager or young adult to be empowered by the also growing secondary market. With this new industry, anyone can start their collection without having a luxurious income and profit with products that were once unattainable for most workers.

Starting from 2022, with two consecutive quarters of negative GDP, United States has by definition entered a recession. Previous research in this field has already pinned down the basic causes and the history of this recession, yet with the effects of it still unfolding, it’s important to understand the U.S. public perception on this topic, in order to better predict its future consequences. Using the method of online survey, this paper will seek to capture the working U.S. citizens’ economic identities and their opinion on the existing issues within the American economy, and how they should be remedied. Survey figures are generated for analyzation, in which participants will be grouped by their age and income, to better understand their difference in perspectives. The survey results indicate perceptions of lower class, middle class, and upper class American citizens, in regards to their perceptions on inflation, the Federal Reserve Bank, their own spending habits, and the Biden’s Administration’s response to address the current economic conditions.

For years, the healthcare industry has compensated its surgeons with a simple fee-for-service model. With more payment structures becoming prevalent, we decided to review one specific type of payment structure, pay-for-performance, and its impact on patient health outcomes. We hypothesized that, on average, across all specialties, performance-based contracts would yield better health outcomes compared to fee-for-service payments alone. We also hypothesized that performance-based contracts might pressure physicians to get results and could lead to mistakes and a worse quality of care. We reviewed nine papers from 2006-2014, of which the majority were conducted in the United States, with one each from Italy and Germany. Our review included three literary/systematic reviews, three before & after studies, and two cross-sectional analyses. Many papers did not provide strong evidence of the effect of pay-for-performance on health outcomes, although examined papers agree on certain things. A common theme we found was the pay-for-performance increased documentation and the number of procedures done, but with minimal conclusions about outcomes. This may result from poor or non-standardized metrics being used to measure and report “performance.” However, two studies found that pay-for-performance improved patient health outcomes, despite limitations. For example, Brosig-Koch et al., (2013) found that P4P was not cost-effective from a solely financial standpoint.

China's rural social assistance security system is a national system that meets the basic survival needs of the rural poor, safeguards their rights to survival, and helps them get out of the survival crisis. It is the last layer of safety net to maintain social stability, promote rural economic development, and guarantee the basic living for peasants. China's rural social assistance security system has gone through decades of the development from emergency relief to guaranteed assistance, and many experts and scholars have conducted in-depth research and discussions on it. On the basis of fully searching for domestic and foreign literature, systematic reading of literature content, careful analysis and screening of experts' views, this paper classifies and summarizes the views and discussion of experts and scholars, trying to reflect the development of China's rural social assistance security system and running status. It can make readers further study China's rural social security system, at the same time, providing a reference for other developing countries in the world to improve the progress of social security.

Enzymes are efficient catalysts for biological reactions and can potentially be designed to speed up non-biological reactions, such as reactions in industrial processes. However, physically experimenting with new protein designs is time consuming, and an efficient method to predict protein stability is needed. Our research problem is finding the best machine learning model to predict the change in enzyme thermostability after a single point mutation in the amino acid sequence. We trained several machine learning models and found that the XGBoost model had the best performance with an R2 score of 0.593 (R2 score is a metric where higher is better and a perfect model would have a score of 1).

There are numerous contributing factors to the overall health of a person as well as factors that dictate the best course of treatment. A great contributor to that decision is the biological sex, it can influence every decision that a medical provider makes for their patient. With transgenderism, let us not forget that in the medical community, knowing the biological sex of the patient is crucial for proper patient care and accurate diagnosis. In healthcare, the sex of a patient means more than just "male" or "female". It gives a clearer understanding of what the underlying issue may be. That includes taking reproductive organs into account for possible causes of abnormal signs and symptoms. As an even clearer picture, being able to identify the proper sex-chromosome pair (XX or XY) allows professionals to be concious of X- linked recessive disorders.

With the rise of “binge watching” and increasing use of social media, teens are interacting more with tv shows, or more specifically the characters. Previous research has identified that parasocial relationships (PSR) and identification impact loneliness, body image, and one’s personality and behaviors, but has failed to address the extent to which the effects are positive or negative. PSR and Identification have also not been studied together, despite the likelihood of someone who has formed a relationship with a character to also put themselves in the shoes of said character. My study addressed these gaps and aimed to explore the extent to which the effects of PSR and identification with tv characters are negative on teens ages 14-18. My study also explored the subquestion, are ineffective age-ratings a possible cause of any specific negative effects of PSR and/or identification? I conducted a phenomenological study using a quantitative survey method. I determined participants’ level of PSR and identification with their favorite tv-show character and the number of positive, negative, and neutral effects the phenomenons had on them. A strong correlation between one’s level of PSR and identification confirmed that the two should be studied together. However, no correlation was found between one’s level of PSR or Identification and the positivity or negativity of effects. My subquestion did reveal that PSR and identification pose a problem when with characters from shows rated for an older audience. These findings may have implications on the presence and use of parental controls on television.

This paper is mainly about the work-family conflict women face in this society. This paper shows the relationship between work-family conflict and various factors such as social support, turnover intention, and low job engagement. To find the effects of work-family conflict on working women, the survey was sent out to the people who currently have a workplace. The majority of the participants were women, as the research’s main focus was on working women. The results proved the positive correlation between work-family conflict and turnover intention. In addition, surprisingly, the survey showed that the control variables such as age, tenure, gender, and the number of children had insignificant impacts on the work-family conflict.

Despite the increasing societal acceptance of homosexual individuals, the perception of homosexuality by heterosexual individuals is polluted by personal bias. My study observed the interaction between 422 heterosexuals and the homosexual community. First, my subjects self reported their beliefs on the determinant of sexual orientation (genetic or lifestyle). Next, they took the Activism Orientation (AO) and Sexual Prejudice (SP) Scales as a baseline measure of their relationship with members homosexual community. Subjects were randomly assigned to listen to an interview of two fictional homosexual individuals that spoke of life experience which either supported or contradicted the subjects’ self reported beliefs. Additionally, subjects were assigned to a high or low empathy condition toward the interviewee. After listening to the interview, subjects were given the choice to allocate $0 - $8,000 in support of a pro - LGBT charity. Subjects then retook the AO and SP scales to measure for significant changes in perception of homsexuals after the fictional scenario. Results indicated a significant decrease in the AO of subjects that viewed interviews that contradicted their beliefs. Additionally, subjects assigned to the low empathy condition donated significantly larger amounts. The present study has two main implications: Heterosexual individuals’ generalize their advocacy toward the LGBT community based on the actions of a singular homosexual. Furthermore, many activists naturally approach issues regarding social justice from a place of empathy, it is more sustainable to approach social justice movements from a logical perspective to allow for more meaningful and long term participation in a social justice movement.

Pancreatic cancer, among which pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the most common type, has a nearly identical incidence to mortality rate. Difficulties in early detection, diagnosis, and treatment are primarily responsible, all of which are further complicated by the molecular biology and etiology of the disease. To succeed in improving treatment options and survival rates, a deeper understanding of pancreatic cancer pathogenesis, as well as the pathogenesis of individual patients, is crucial. This is where personalized medicine comes into play, as it allows for a more specific diagnosis and choice of treatment that utilizes the genetic and cellular makeup of an individual’s cancer cells to provide a basis for the diagnosis and treatment. Personalized medicine is a rapidly growing field that shows promise in overcoming challenges in treating pancreatic cancer, all of which are explored in this article.
