Intergenerational Effects of Parents’ Math Anxiety on Children’s Math Achievement and Anxiety

A large field study of children in first and second grade explored how parents' anxiety about math relates to their children's math achievement. The goal of the study was to better understand why some students perform worse in math than oth...

When Math Hurts: Math Anxiety Predicts Pain Network Activation in Anticipation of Doing Math

Math can be difficult, and for those with high levels of mathematics-anxiety (HMAs), math is associated with tension, apprehension, and fear. But what underlies the feelings of dread effected by math anxiety? Are HMAs' feelings about math m...

Developing nonlinear time-varying weighted combined prediction framework for infectious diseases: validation with respiratory infectious diseases and sexually transmitted infections.

Global impact of benthic denitrification on marine N₂ fixation and primary production simulated by a variable-stoichiometry Earth system model

Nitrogen (N) is a crucial limiting nutrient for phytoplankton growth in the ocean. The main source of bioavailable N in the ocean is delivered by N2-fixing diazotrophs in the surface layer. Since field observations of N2 fixation are spatia...

Highest methane concentrations in an Arctic river linked to local terrestrial inputs

Large amounts of methane (CH4) could be released as a result of the gradual or abrupt thawing of Arctic permafrost due to global warming. Once available, this potent greenhouse gas is emitted into the atmosphere or transported laterally int...

Research on pH Value Detection Method during Maize Silage Secondary Fermentation Based on Computer Vision

pH value is a crucial indicator for evaluating silage quality. In this study, taking maize silage as the research object, a quantitative prediction model of pH value change during the secondary fermentation of maize silage was constructed b...

Restoring the Fluctuation–Dissipation Theorem in Kardar–Parisi–Zhang Universality Class through a New Emergent Fractal Dimension

The Kardar–Parisi–Zhang (KPZ) equation describes a wide range of growth-like phenomena, with applications in physics, chemistry and biology. There are three central questions in the study of KPZ growth: the determination of height probabili...

Structural Features Promoting Photocatalytic Degradation of Contaminants of Emerging Concern: Insights into Degradation Mechanism Employing QSA/PR Modeling

Although heterogeneous photocatalysis has shown promising results in degradation of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), the mechanistic implications related to structural diversity of chemicals, affecting oxidative (by HO•) or reductiv...

Occupancy Prediction Using Low-Cost and Low-Resolution Heat Sensors for Smart Offices

Solving the challenge of occupancy prediction is crucial in order to design efficient and sustainable office spaces and automate lighting, heating, and air circulation in these facilities. In office spaces where large areas need to be obser...

Magnetic resonance imaging radiomics for predicting pathologic complete response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer.
