Introduction The neural mechanisms that underpin cognitive impairments in patients with schizophrenia remain unclear. Previous studies have typically treated as a homogeneous group, despite the existence of distinct symptom presentations between deficit and non-deficit subtypes. This approach has been found to be inadequate, necessitating separate investigation. Methods study was conducted at Daizhuang Hospital Jining City, China, from January 2022 October 2023. sample comprised 30 healthy...

Introduction Under the background of COVID-19, people’s mental health problems are concerned by researchers. Network analysis is a new method exploring interactions between issues at symptom level. This study investigates network structure generalized anxiety symptoms among Chinese residents during COVID-19 pandemic from perspective “society-family-personality,” and explores its relationship with Big Five personality traits perceived social support. Methods A multi-stage random sampling...

Sleep loss can alter extrinsic, task-related functional MRI signals involved in attention, memory, and executive function. However, the effects of sleep on brain structure have not been well characterized. Recent studies with patients disorders animal models demonstrated reduction regional hippocampus thalamus. In this study, using T1-weighted MRI, we examined change gray matter volume healthy adults after long-term total deprivation (~72 h). Regional changes were explored voxel-based...

Abstract Rainfall erosivity is an important factor to be considered when predicting soil erosion. Precipitation data for 1971–2010 from 39 stations located in the Loess Plateau of China were collected calculate spatiotemporal variability rainfall erosivity, and long-term tendency was predicted using HadGEM2-ES model. Statistical analyses done Mann–Kendall statistic tests ordinary Kriging interpolation. The results showed that annual mean decreased 1,286.02 MJ mm hm−2 h−1 a−1 1971–1990...

The role of metacontrol in creativity is theoretically assumed, but experimental evidence still lacking. In this study, we investigated how affects from the perspective individual differences. Sixty participants completed task, which was used to divide into a high-metacontrol group (HMC) versus low (LMC) group. Then, these performed alternate uses task (AUT; divergent thinking) and remote associates test (RAT; convergent thinking), while their EEG results were recorded continuously....

Abstract Particle selectivity plays an important role in clarifying sediment transport processes vegetative filter strips (VFS). 10‐m long grass at slopes of 5° and 15° were subjected to a series sediment‐laden inflows experiments with different particle sizes investigate the its response overland flow hydraulics. The inflow sediments came from local soil, river‐bed sand, mixed, median size d 50 39.9, 207.9 77.4 μm, respectively. Three independent repeated carried for each treatment. results...

It is important to predict evolution processes of water quality in order effectively protect the aquatic eco-system. We proposed an integrated autoregressive (AR) prediction model based on Markov-switching (MS) theory and improved crow search algorithm (ICSA), ICSA-MSAR was used temporal changes. The results showed that MS ICSA provided optimized method determine parameters, with (s, p) values (3, 5) had a better performance. Compared traditional AR model, significantly raised Akaike...

The research creativity of doctoral students is not solely fueled by their intrinsic motivation, but also thrives in an environment that offers challenging opportunities, substantial support, and feedback from significant others. Based on the job demands-resources model, this study aims to explore impact challenge stressors Chinese students. A mediated moderation model was constructed examine mediating effect achievement motivation moderating supervisor developmental relationship between...

Previous studies have shown that creative thinking is associated with metacontrol, but its neural basis unknown. The present study explored the of both by assessing EEG complexity through multiscale entropy. Subjects were engaged in a metacontrol task and an Alternative Uses Task, grouped according to performance, was analysed results showed significantly higher high-metacontrol high-creativity groups than low-metacontrol low-creativity groups, respectively, at high time scales. adaptability...

Ephemeral rivers commonly occur in regions with a shortage of water resources, and their channel configuration tends to change substantially owing long drying times artificial sand extraction. During short-term conveyance, storage large potholes leakage along the dry riverbed retards flow, which is detrimental for river landscape ecological demand. The objective this study evaluate flow process corresponding certain release scheme. A coupled dynamic loss flood routing model was established...

Working memory (WM) is a cognitive system that stores and processes information continuously for few seconds, suggested to be malleable affect learning. Children with learning disabilities (LD) have deficits in working. Consequently, the prospect of training WM thereby not only expanding capacity but also improving reasoning abilities or helping overcome stimulated growing number studies evaluating effects (for reviews, see Klingberg, 2010). Our previous on working updating tasks can improve...

Recent behavioral studies suggest that children with learning disabilities (LD) have difficulty in working memory (WM) updating.However, as performance represents the summed activity of multiple stages processing, temporal locus WM updating deficit remains unclear.Here, we used an event-related potential (ERP) paradigm to compare mechanisms 21 LD (aged between 10 and 12 years) agematched controls while they performed running task.Behavioral results showed attained significantly lower...
