Risking for Good: A Three-Wave Within-Person Analysis of the Reciprocal Relations Among Prosocial Risk Taking, Positive Risk Taking, and Prosocial Leadership.

Adolescence is a developmental stage characterized by increased engagement in risk taking, which can serve adaptive functions such as identity exploration and social integration. However, most existing research has focused on negative risk taking, with limited attention to how positive and prosocial risk taking contribute to adolescents' leadership development. Moreover, previous studies on adolescent risk taking have predominantly relied on cross-sectional designs, leaving within-person developmental processes underexplored.

Parental Differential Treatment of Siblings and Child Psychopathology: A Network Meta-analysis.

To determine the associations between parental differential treatment (PDT) and various psychopathological symptoms in children and its mechanisms, this systematic review integrated 26 studies spanning more than three decades, involving 37,025 participants. A network meta-analysis was employed to calculate correlations between absolute and relative PDT and specific symptoms (including anxiety, depression, aggression, and rule-breaking behavior), as well as broad-band symptoms (including internalizing and externalizing behavior) in children. Meta-analytic structural equation modelling was used to examine the mediating effect between PDT and psychopathology.

Adaptive ferroelectric memristors with high-throughput BaTiO thin films for neuromorphic computing.

Ferroelectric tunnel junctions (FTJs) and ferroelectric diodes (FDs) have been considered as promising artificial synaptic devices for constructing brain-inspired neuromorphic computing systems.

Here, we demonstrate high-performance electronic synapses based on a high-throughput ferroelectric BaTiO (BTO) thin film.

Unconventional Thermal Stability of Domain Framework in Ferroelectric CuInPS.

Achieving stable and persistent polarization characteristics in ferroelectric (FE) materials is crucial for fabricating high-density, low-power multifunctional memories.

The advent of photothermal-driven nanomotors presents exciting opportunities for tumor therapy. However, significant potential remains for improving the permeability of these nanomotors to tumors due to the barrier posed by the tumor stromal microenvironment (TSM). Additionally, advancing their functional integration in photothermal production and second near-infrared (NIR-II) imaging could enable deep-tissue phototheranostics.

Higher social class is associated with higher contextualized emotion recognition accuracy across cultures.

We tested links between social status and emotion recognition accuracy (ERA) with participants from a diverse array of cultures and a new model and method of ERA, the Assessment of Contextualized Emotion (ACE), which incorporates social context and is linked to different types of social interaction across cultures. Participants from the Czech Republic (Study 1) and from 12 cultural groups in Europe, North America, and Asia (Study 2) completed a short version of the ACE, a self-construal scale, and the MacArthur Subjective Social Status (SSS) scale. In both studies, higher SSS was associated with more accuracy.

Edge polarization topology integrated with sliding ferroelectricity in Moiré system.

Van der Waals moiré heterostructure have been found to exhibits a robust interfacial ferroelectricity down to atomic thickness, and discovering and understanding the complex polarization state in moiré systems is of fundamental interest to condensed-matter research. In this study, we examine the moiré ferroelectricity in twisted h-BN heterostructure by piezoresponse force microscopy. Due to atomic reconstruction, triangular moiré patterns are detected, and we directly observe sliding ferroelectricity in the center of triangular moiré patterns as well as robust in-plane polarization topology emerging at the boundary of adjacent triangles, which we call edge polarization.

A surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) nanosensor with dual-reactivity is developed for the simultaneous imaging of hypochlorite (ClO) and nitric oxide (NO) in living cells. Utilizing the specific reactions between functional molecules and ClO and NO, respectively, the 2-mercapto-4-methoxy-phenol (2-MP) and o-phenylenediamine (OPD) molecules are synchronously assembled on the surface of gold nanoparticles to fabricate the dual-function nanosensors. The advantages of SERS technology, narrow peaks for spectral multiplexing and fingerprint information, further facilitate the simultaneous detection of ClO and NO.

Picofluidic Electro-Osmosis Measurement of Cell Membrane Mechanical Properties.

Cells connect with their internal and external environments through plasma membranes, and the mechanical properties of cell membranes govern numerous biological events. Membrane detection techniques such as optical or magnetic tweezers have revealed mechanical strength by membrane-anchored modifications, but it remains challenging to develop label-free methods to reduce the influence of exogenous interference. Here picofluidic electro-osmosis measurement (PEOM), which enables direct and efficient sensing of cell membrane mechanical properties by using a glass nanopipette without labeling, is presented.

Correlates and influences of Chinese parental communication about the COVID-19 pandemic: The moderating role of parental burnout.

Despite evidence that parental communication about COVID-19 can have short-term benefits such as adolescents' increased health behaviors, less is known about the potential long-term associations between such communication and adolescent adjustment, as well as the family characteristics that facilitate such communication. Moreover, it is important to examine such processes beyond Western societies and broaden the understanding of parental communication in non-Western societies. To fill these gaps in the literature, a two-wave longitudinal study on Chinese families spanning 1 year during the pandemic (July 2020-July 2021) was conducted.

Parent-Adolescent Discrepancies in Perceiving Parental Psychological Control and Autonomy Support Predict Adolescents' Psychological Adjustment: Does Adolescent Gender Make a Difference?

Few studies simultaneously examined how parent-adolescent discrepancies in reporting psychological control and autonomy support predicted adolescents' adjustment and the moderation by adolescent gender remains unknown. This longitudinal study addressed these gaps using a Chinese sample of 310 adolescents (158 girls; M = 13.34, SD = 0.

Mechanical force-induced interlayer sliding in interfacial ferroelectrics.

Moiré superlattices in two-dimensional stacks have attracted worldwide interest due to their unique electronic properties. A typical example is the moiré ferroelectricity, where adjacent moirés exhibit opposite spontaneous polarization that can be switched through interlayer sliding. However, in contrast to ideal regular ferroelectric moiré domains (equilateral triangles) built in most theoretical models, the unavoidable irregular moiré supercells (non-equilateral triangles) induced by external strain fields during the transfer process have been given less attention.

Proton-controlled Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction and topological Hall effect in hydrogenated strontium ruthenate.

The Topological Hall effect (THE) is a fascinating physical phenomenon related to topological spin textures, serving as a powerful electrical probe for detecting and understanding these unconventional magnetic orders and skyrmions. Recently, the THE has been observed in strontium ruthenate (SrRuO, SRO) thin films and its heterostructures, which originates from the disruption of interfacial inversion symmetry and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI). Here, we demonstrate a practically pure proton doping effect for controlling the DMI and THE in the SRO epitaxial films using the Pt electrode-assisted hydrogenation method.
