A controlled trial across 10 universities demonstrates that a newly developed contemplative-based climate resilience course significantly improves mental health, reduces climate distress, and enhances self-efficacy among university students compared to traditional environmental coursework.
This study empirically validates a higher-order Sustainable Touchpoint Experience (STE) construct comprising food, people, planet, and governance dimensions, demonstrating through PLS-SEM analysis of 400 Eastern Indian restaurant customers that STE significantly enhances dining loyalty both directly and indirectly by fostering customer trust.
This study analyzes a corpus of 300 paired Chinese and US e-commerce product pages to reveal that cross-border intersemiotic translation employs a "cross-modal split configuration," where linguistic foreignization co-occurs with visual decontextualization and structural stabilization to negotiate cultural differences across markets.
This corpus-based study analyzes how English military colloquialisms are rendered into Modern Standard Arabic, finding that translators prioritize communicative function over source form through dominant strategies like functional equivalence and paraphrase, thereby refining Newmark's translation framework under conditions of significant register asymmetry.
Through interviews with service users in Durham, NC, this study finds that while the community highly values the Holistic Empathetic Assistance Response Team (HEART) as a trusted alternative to police for crisis intervention, participants emphasize the need for expanded program visibility and scope alongside a broader realignment of social services to better support neighbors in crisis.
This study employs Participatory Critical Discourse Analysis across six higher education institutions in Pakistan, Oman, and Saudi Arabia to demonstrate how teachers and students collaboratively negotiate algorithmic and curricular constraints through specific discursive strategies, thereby strengthening teacher agency and democratic literacy to advance SDGs 4, 10, and 16.
This paper introduces and validates the 28-item Child Marriage Acceptability Scale (CMAS), a psychometrically sound tool developed across five countries to measure the social norms, personal beliefs, and economic factors driving child marriage, thereby enabling policymakers to assess and track acceptability levels to inform reduction efforts.
Grounded in Stress and Coping Theory and the Stress Buffering Model, this study validates a moderated mediation model demonstrating that while prenatal life events directly increase pregnancy stress, they also do so indirectly by shifting coping styles toward passive strategies, a process that is significantly buffered by social support.
This study demonstrates that in multicultural negotiations, superior team performance stems not merely from cultural fluency but from the ability to design hybrid governance structures that reconcile competing institutional logics, a capability fostered by specific negotiation architectures involving role rotation, crisis escalation, and dual-source evaluation.
This study validates the psychometric properties of the Taiwanese translation of the Multidimensional Assessment of Interoceptive Awareness, Version 2 (MAIA-2), confirming its reliability and construct validity while suggesting that a modified eight-factor model with four removed items offers a better fit than the original structure.
