Article Abstract

Two studies were conducted in Hong Kong to validate a brief measure of family resilience based on the three-factor CPR model. The CPR model stipulates that family resilience comprises three major factors: Communication and Connectedness (C), Positive Framing (P), and External Resources (R). Study 1 abbreviated the 16-item Family Resilience Scale (FRS16) into six items (FRS6) with a parent sample in the community (N = 1270). Study 2 tested the validity of the FRS6 with a single parent sample (N = 336). The result of Study 1 suggests a dominant general family resilience factor structure with three distinct subfactors. The highest factor loading items from each of the three subfactors were retained in the six-item FRS6. The resultant FRS6 was internally consistent and related to various correlates in similar or better strengths as compared to the FRS16. The results of a separate sample in Study 2 indicated that the FRS6 demonstrated satisfactory internal reliability and correlated significantly with individual resilience, quality of life, anxiety, and depression in the expected directions. Both studies supported that the FRS6 is a psychometrically sound measure of family resilience and can be used in longitudinal studies that aim to chart the trajectory of family adjustment following life adversities.

This exploratory study surveyed seven contaminated brownfields and Superfund sites in Southern California to identify locally adapted species tolerant of mixed organic and metal contamination under arid and semi-arid conditions. Five novel native plants, including Brickellia californica, Baccharis salicifolia, Baccharis sarothroides, Eriogonum fasciculatum, and Heterotheca grandiflora were identified as hyperaccumulators of copper (Cu), alongside a non-native species from the Asteraceae family, Helminthotheca echioides. Additional metal-accumulating plants (including native plants) for lead (Pb), chromium (Cr), arsenic (As), and nickel (Ni) were identified, and warrant further evaluation for their phytoremediation potential.

Toxic metal ion contamination poses a significant environmental challenge, severely impacting plant growth, development, and reproduction. To cope with metal-induced stress, plants have evolved diverse molecular and physiological mechanisms. Among these, the xyloglucan endotransglucosylase/hydrolase (XTH) gene family, which encodes enzymes responsible for cell wall remodeling, plays a crucial role in enhancing plant resilience to metal ion stress.

Background: Disadvantageous family socio-economic status (DFSES) is a potential source of disparity in adolescent mental health. This study investigated the association between DFSES and probable depression and its mediation mechanisms via personal psychological resources (hope and resilience), loneliness, and school refusal functions.

Methods: A school-based anonymous survey was conducted among 8285 middle school students in China from February to March 2022; the response/eligible rate was 98.

This study explores the integration of traditional Chinese "Fu" culture into the moral education system for students with disabilities across K-12 and higher education through artificial intelligence. By leveraging soft computing to handle cultural ambiguities, it constructs an adaptive educational framework that aligns students' cognitive characteristics with curriculum demands, thereby enhancing their identification with Chinese culture. Guided by the theory of the "Second Combination," the research employs AI-powered soft computing to analyze the semantic and cognitive dimensions of "Fu" culture.

The Fabaceae-specific review highlights the structural, functional, and phylogenetic diversity of UGTs, revealing clade-specific glycosylation mechanisms and novel sugar conjugations that contribute to legume adaptability. These insights offer promising avenues for metabolic engineering and stress-resilient crop development. UDP-glycosyltransferases (UGTs) are the biocatalysts modifying small molecules through glycosylation to enhance their solubility, stability, and bioactivity.
