Mental health problems among rural children have aroused widespread concern in both society and academia. Ethnic minority rural children, in particular, confront various challenges, including poverty and psychological crises. Compared to their non-rural counterparts, they are more prone to experiencing depression and other adverse emotions. Consequently, investigating the protective factors against depression in ethnic minority rural children holds significant practical importance. This study aimed to identify the depression subgroups among Chinese rural minority children, and to focus on the prediction of parental migrant patterns on depression subgroups. The data for this research were collected from primary school students in Congjiang County, Guizhou Province, China, with a sample size of 745 participants. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was applied to explore the depression categories. Depressive symptoms were assessed with the 20-item Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CESD). Logistic regression analyses were used to explore the influence of parental migrant patterns on the identified depression categories. LPA results showed that the most suitable model comprised three profiles: “Diverse, severe somatic symptoms (7.4%)”, “Stable, low depression (68.8%)” and “Diverse, severe depression (23.8%)”. Significant statistical differences (P < 0.05) were observed in depression symptoms among these three profiles. Logistic regression analysis indicated that children with only mothers working outside the home were more likely to fall into the “Diverse, severe somatic symptoms” subgroup (OR = 2.955, P < 0.05). Children with both parents at home were less likely to be classified in the “diverse, severe depression” subgroup (OR = 0.627, P < 0.05). At the same time, it was found that the pattern of parents working outside the home had no significant effect on the subgroup of “stable, low depressive symptoms” (P > 0.05). For ethnic minority rural children, parental migration patterns will affect their depression subgroups, especially when only mother goes out to work. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the mental health status of this group and provide specific support.

农村儿童的心理健康问题已引起社会和学术界的广泛关注。尤其是农村少数民族儿童，面临着贫困、心理危机等各种挑战。与非农村儿童相比，他们更容易出现抑郁等不良情绪。因此，研究少数民族农村儿童抑郁的保护因素具有重要的现实意义。本研究旨在识别中国农村少数民族儿童中的抑郁亚群，并关注父母流动模式对抑郁亚群的预测。本研究的数据来自中国贵州省从江县的小学生，样本量为 745 人。研究采用潜伏特征分析（LPA）来探索抑郁类别。抑郁症状采用 20 项流行病学研究中心抑郁量表（CESD）进行评估。逻辑回归分析用于探讨父母移民模式对已确定的抑郁类别的影响。LPA结果显示，最合适的模型包括三个特征："多样化、严重躯体症状（7.4%）"、"稳定、低抑郁（68.8%）"和 "多样化、严重抑郁（23.8%）"。这三类儿童的抑郁症状存在显著的统计学差异（P < 0.05）。逻辑回归分析表明，只有母亲外出工作的儿童更有可能属于 "多样化、严重躯体症状 "亚组（OR = 2.955，P < 0.05）。父母双方都在家的儿童被归入 "多样化、严重抑郁 "亚组的可能性较低（OR = 0.627，P < 0.05）。同时，研究发现，父母外出工作的模式对 "稳定、低抑郁症状 "亚组没有显著影响（P >0.05）。对于少数民族农村儿童而言，父母的外出务工模式会影响其抑郁亚组，尤其是当只有母亲外出务工时。因此，有必要关注这一群体的心理健康状况，并提供有针对性的支持。

Teaching, as a high-pressure profession, encompasses significant emotional labor that inevitably spills over into teachers' personal lives. It is imperative to acknowledge and address the influence of emotional labor in the workplace on teachers' work/family conflict. Using the conservation of resources theory, this research engaged 690 primary and secondary teachers, employing Teacher Emotional Labor Strategies Scale, Teacher-colleague Relations Scale, and Work/family Scale (work-family conflict, and family-work conflict) to examine how teacher emotional labor influence their work/family conflict and the mediating role of teacher-colleague relations. The results of structural equation modeling showed that (1) surface acting was a significant predictor of work/family conflict, but deep acting and the expression of naturally felt emotion were not. (2) teacher-colleague relations mediated the relationship between surface acting and work/family conflict. These findings highlight the role of teachers' emotional labor strategies and teacher-colleague relations in reducing teachers' work/family conflict and promoting teachers' well-being. Implications for the improvement of teacher regulation ability and school environment are identified.

The video streaming sector has expanded significantly over the past decades despite the competition among service providers generating difficulties in retaining subscribed customers. This study explored the subscription intention by evaluating 35 peer-reviewed journal articles from two popular databases, namely Scopus and Web of Science. Instrumental insights related to the intricate and multidimensional factors that influenced customer decisions to subscribe to or renew video streaming service subscriptions were provided to both academicians and service providers. Alternative research avenues were also discovered for future researchers. Moreover, the findings would assist video streaming service providers in improving user experiences, establishing customer loyalty, and increasing the subscription intention in the fluctuating digital entertainment industry.

Energy consumption plays a critical role in climate change, necessitating an understanding of the factors that shape perceptions of energy use. These perceptions significantly influence the adoption and expansion of renewable energy sources. This study conducts a comprehensive review of 45 articles to identify key factors that affect energy consumption perceptions, highlight gaps in existing literature and suggest areas for future research. The findings reveal distinct differences in energy use perceptions among developed, developing, and least-developed nations, driven by socio-demographic, cultural, and psychological factors. Socioeconomic variables, including energy education, cultural norms, and financial considerations, are shown to impact these perceptions. A notable deficiency in energy awareness, particularly among students, underscores the urgent need to revise educational curricula to foster energy consciousness and efficient usage in the younger generation. The study also highlights the critical need to explore the relationship between excessive energy use and perceptions of environmental damage and climate change, especially in developing countries where this issue remains insufficiently investigated. To address these challenges, the study recommends integrating energy education into school curricula, augmenting research in developing regions, offering government subsidies, and tackling climate risks associated with energy use. By understanding these influencing factors, policymakers and energy providers can formulate more effective regulations and policies, support the development and expansion of renewable energy infrastructure, and promote climate change mitigation and environmental sustainability.

Iconic gestures facilitate language comprehension in consecutive interpreting

Previous studies have shown that iconic gestures can be integrated with speech for better comprehension in both first and second language contexts. Yet it remains unclear whether such speech-gesture integration is found in consecutive interpreting (CI) and influenced by language tasks (passive viewing or CI) and interpreting experience (individuals with or without CI experience). To this end, we conducted two experiments through a modified cued-recall task in which Chinese-English bilinguals were exposed to utterances accompanied by three gesture conditions: semantically related gesture, semantically unrelated gesture, and no gesture. In Experiment 1, bilinguals with no CI experience performed the cued-recall task after either a passive viewing task or a CI task. In Experiment 2, bilinguals with CI experience only performed CI tasks before the task. Experiment 1 showed that bilinguals responded faster and more accurately to semantically related gestures than other gesture conditions in both language tasks. The results of Experiment 2, compared with the performance of bilinguals in the CI task in Experiment 1, also revealed the facilitative role of iconic gestures for language comprehension during CI. However, the two experiments found no interaction effect between gesture condition and language task or CI experience, suggesting speech-gesture integration is not affected by language task and CI experience. This strengthens the robustness of the integrated-systems hypothesis that people integrate speech and gestures for L2 comprehension even in CI activity.

Abstract

There is limited intersectionality-informed, contextually diverse qualitative research on school experiences of LGBTQ+ students and links to mental health. Focusing on racialized, ethnic minority and religious/faith groups, this coproduced UK study examines how: 1) sexual and/or gender diverse students with intersecting minoritized identities experience school; 2) school environments could better support their mental health; and 3) what shapes school inclusion initiatives. In-depth interviews and focus groups were conducted with 22 staff members, 32 students (13–19 years), and nine LGBTQ+ school inclusion training providers.

The sample was diverse across gender and sexual identity, race/ethnicity, religion and context. Data were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis, identifying three themes (and subthemes): 1) “What's important is putting the young person first” (‘Minority stress: it's more stressful for me’, ‘We're in this together but who's in charge?’, ‘Prioritising students’ needs and lived reality’), 2) “Move beyond viewing religious beliefs and culture versus LGBTQ+ inclusion as a zero-sum game” (‘Faith clashes?’, ‘Fears about going there maintain distance’), and 3) “We need to talk: engaging with parents and school communities” (‘Credible messengers', ‘Finding ways into the conversation’).

Findings emphasize the importance of intersectional perspectives. Also, a need to acknowledge historic and current oppressions shaping current perspectives on gender and sexual diversity; reflexivity and intersubjectivity in communication with parents, students and communities; greater intersectional representation; and raised awareness and disruption of inequity-creating norms. This requires policy-level support, guidance and resourcing to avoid widening inequities on socio-economic grounds and to prepare students to live within a mutually tolerant society.

Background

Individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) require appropriate and adequate services and support to maximize their skills, live independently, and participate in a community. When they receive adequate care and family support, individuals with IDD can potentially live at home instead of availing themselves of alternative care, particularly institutional care.

Objective

This national study examines the social support and services available to both young adults with IDD and their families in Saudi Arabia, perceived individual outcomes, and satisfaction with the currently available services.

Method

This study adopted a cross-sectional survey approach, collecting data from 783 families of young adults with IDD aged 16–25 years.

Results

Respondents revealed low availability of 19 types of services and support, particularly respite care and transition services. Further, outcomes associated with existing services were perceived to be low, particularly their ability to make choices and decisions. Most respondents were also dissatisfied with different service aspects. In particular, they reported low levels of satisfaction with service coordination, availability of choice, and quality. A strong positive relationship was found between service availability and individual outcomes. Additionally, the availability of self-determination training services was associated with decision-making as an outcome; friendship and relationship outcomes were correlated with participation in community activities; and service quality was moderately positively related to service choices.

Conclusions

This study reveals the inadequacy of service availability and highlights the perceptions of low levels of individual outcomes and service satisfaction. Therefore, services targeting individuals with IDD and their families require considerable improvement.

Visual perspective-taking (VPT) plays a crucial role in social interactions. Although the mechanisms behind VPT have been thoroughly studied in human-human interactions, there are only a few studies examining whether humans can also adopt the visuospatial perspective of machines such as robots or objects that have an implied social presence. Thus far, earlier work suggested that a human-like appearance is a major factor determining VPT. In the present study, we isolate the social presence aspect that is inherent to a human-like appearance to specifically assess whether the social presence on its own is sufficient to trigger VPT. In particular, we test whether participants can adopt the visuospatial perspective of an object that implies a social presence (i.e., a camera) and compare findings to an earlier study, in which we tested whether participants adopt the visuospatial perspective of a robot. We find that participants adopt the visuospatial perspective of a camera and that the magnitude of these effects do not differ from VPT effects for robots. These results expand on previous findings on this topic by showing that an object, which is associated with an implied social presence can already trigger VPT effects. Moreover, these findings are informative for the design of cost-effective social robots as camera-like features can already effectively trigger VPT mechanisms, which are highly relevant for smooth social interactions, and thus more costly human-like features are not necessarily required.

Moreover, these findings are informative for the design of cost-effective social robots as camera-like features can already effectively trigger VPT mechanisms, which are highly relevant for smooth social interactions, and thus more costly human-like features are not necessarily required.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":7141,"journal":{"name":"Acta Psychologica","volume":"254 ","pages":"Article 104801"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143436417","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study explores the influence of CEO-board age differences on a firm's R&D intensity through the lens of the Knowledge-Based View, considering how strategic orientations such as digital, entrepreneurial, and long-term focus moderate this relationship. Drawing on the KBV, the research posits that age diversity between CEOs and board members enhances the firm's knowledge base by combining diverse experiences, insights, and cognitive styles, thereby fostering innovation. Using data from 309 Indian firms listed on the NSE 500 index between 2007 and 2016, the findings demonstrate that a digital orientation strengthens the positive impact of CEO-board age differences on R&D intensity by facilitating knowledge creation and sharing. Conversely, an entrepreneurial orientation may weaken this relationship by focusing more on immediate market opportunities than on sustained knowledge development. A long-term orientation further amplifies the positive linkage by aligning diverse leadership knowledge with sustained innovation objectives. This study contributes to the strategic management literature by clarifying how leadership demographic diversity, viewed through a knowledge-based perspective, influences a firm's ability to generate and leverage knowledge for innovation, thereby optimizing R&D outcomes.

Background

Labor value is the basic view and attitude of human to labor, which has a profound influence on the overall development of individuals. However, the long-term neglect of labor education in schools has exerted a negative influence on students' labor values. This not only affects their academic performance,but can also lead to mental health issues such as depression and anxiety.

Methods

We recruited 1283 Chinese students by cluster sampling. And they were asked to complete the labor value scale, the Chinese positive youth development scale, and the internalization problem scale.

Results

(1) Positive labor values negatively predict depression/anxiety; (2) bonding and social competence play an important mediating role between labor values and depression/anxiety.

Conclusions

Labor values significantly affect depression and anxiety, and bonding and social competence play a mediating role.
