Article Abstract

A popular intervention for increasing support for peace in violent intergroup conflicts is to describe the peaceful resolution of other conflicts. In four experiments, we tested the effectiveness of this approach in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict by exposing Jewish-Israelis to information about the Northern Ireland conflict and peace process, or about tourism in Northern Ireland as a control. We found that learning about the historical peace process generally led participants to view conflicts as more malleable, their own conflict as less unique, and led to unfreezing of conflict-related beliefs. However, it neither increased hope nor consistently boosted support for conciliatory policies. We explored boundary conditions and found effects were often stronger among leftist and centrist compared with rightists. Moreover, explicitly drawing analogies between conflicts at the outset proved ineffective, whereas exposing participants to the historical conflict and peace process without mentioning the proximal conflict was more successful.

Objective: This study explored the autonomic nervous system responses and perceived experiences of novice meditators during kinetic and static meditation.

Methods: Thirty-five participants completed both meditation types in randomized order. Each 20-min session included 10 min of guided and 10 min of unguided meditation.

Two-dimensional black phosphorus (BP or phosphorene) has drawn significant interest in alkali metal ion storage due to its capacity to adsorb alkali atoms and high theoretical prediction of specific capacity. But the problem persists in large-scale production of the nanoscale BP, low electronic conductivity, considerable volume change (≈300%), and polyphosphide-induced shuttle effect. To solve this problem, a single-step lasing method is employed to prepare nanoscale BP covalently bound to the sp2 bonded carbon framework through a P─O─C/P─C bond.

The 5th International Polar Year (IPY-5) in 2032-2033 represents an important next step in the legacy of the oldest continuous climate research program created by humanity, which intentionally began during a Solar Maximum with IPY-1 in 1882-1883, following the Little Ice Age. Current IPY-5 planning by the International Arctic Science Committee (IASC) and Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR) is "From IPY-4 to IPY-5" with scope since 2007-2008, considering relevant large-scale polar process, international activities and UN decades. Additionally, there are essential features to incorporate into IPY-5 planning with Indigenous knowledge as well as next-generation leadership along with international science connections across the United Nations, involving core integration of data system and Earth-Sun system research, which accelerated with the International Geophysical Year (IGY) in 1957-1958 that was renamed from IPY-3.

Rational design of high visible light-harvesting photoelectrode for simultaneous detection of enrofloxacin residue markers with a dual-channel cathodic photoelectrochemical aptasensing approach.

It is imperative to develop convenient methodology to enable the simultaneous detection of enrofloxacin (ENR) residue markers coexisted in the aquatic environment. To this end, an efficient dual-channel photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptasensing approach is presented for the detection of trace ENR residue markers simultaneously through a single signal acquisition. Primarily, cathodic PEC aptasensing platform with superior anti-interference capability and high sensitivity was designed and constructed on the basis of the high visible light-harvesting CuInS photocathode and BiS/CN photoanode; and the simultaneous detection of ENR residue markers was then realized by the spatial resolution of aptasensing interfaces.

Objectives: Awareness of death shapes our existence; it prompts both distress and a maturation process called existential maturation. Presently, direct quantitative measures of existential maturation are unavailable to study treatments for existential distress that enhance psychological well-being. We examined the effect of a mortality salience stimulus on implicit death thoughts over time.
