Article Abstract
This mixed-methods study, grounded in Self-Determination Theory and Bandura's Social Cognitive Theory, investigated the interplay between intrinsic motivation, self-efficacy, and innovative teaching practices among faculty members in Chinese higher education. A quantitative survey (n = 357) examined these relationships using structural equation modeling (SEM). The qualitative data from focus groups (n = 18) provided deeper insights into faculty experiences and perspectives. The quantitative findings revealed that faculty members who reported higher levels of enjoyment and perceived competence (intrinsic motivation) also demonstrated greater self-efficacy beliefs. Self-efficacy further emerged as a significant positive predictor of innovative teaching practices. The qualitative data corroborated these findings and critically highlighted administrative workload as a primary barrier to faculty intrinsic motivation and innovation, while underscoring professional development as key to bolstering self-efficacy. This study underscores the importance of fostering intrinsic motivation and self-efficacy to promote innovative teaching practices in Chinese universities.

Anti-tumor activity of trastuzumab deruxtecan in pediatric solid tumors with variable HER2 expression.

Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) is a HER2-targeting antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) with efficacy across adult cancers exhibiting variable HER2 expression. Prior studies demonstrating HER2 expression in osteosarcoma (OS) motivated a clinical trial of T-DXd in pediatric and adolescent/young adults with OS but was terminated early for inactivity. We evaluated the activity of T-DXd using OS patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models and found a 22% objective response rate despite no detectable HER2 expression across PDXs tested.

Citizen science enables volunteers from the public to contribute to scientific research. While citizen science may be an avenue for "democratizing" science and facilitating learning among volunteers, projects tend to attract homogeneous volunteers already highly engaged in science. The emergence of facilitator organizations such as schools, churches and corporations, that connect existing volunteer-oriented groups with citizen science, offers a potentially viable avenue through which to attract more diverse volunteers, with more to gain from their experience.

Previous studies employing cross-lagged panel models (CLPMs) found mixed results regarding reciprocal relations between competence beliefs and intrinsic motivation. CLPMs have been criticized for leading to erroneous causal inference in certain situations. Two datasets were analyzed regarding reciprocal relations between competence beliefs and intrinsic motivation with the alternative random-intercept cross-laged panel models (RI-CLPMs).
