Using Network Analysis to Explore Longitudinal Predictors of Goal Progress and Adjustment

Journal of Personality, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Successful goal regulation requires balancing persistence with adjustment when goals become unattainable. Theoretical and empirical work has identified various antecedents of goal adjustment, yet how these factors function together as an interconnected system remains unclear.

Achieving superior strength-ductility synergy in CoCrNi medium entropy alloy with a novel bionic brick-mud structure

Materials Research Letters
In recent years, the concept of heterogeneous structure (HGS) strengthening has garnered significant attention due to its superior performance relative to conventional strengthening methods. This study presents a novel bionic brick-mud structure designed

Evolutionary legacies structure the geography of seagrass traits across the world's oceans

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Traits modulate species' ability to track shifts in climate, yet the extent to which traits have been shaped by the contemporary environment and/or historical processes remains poorly understood. Here, we fill this gap for the world's seagrasses, habitat‐forming species that provide critical ecosystem services.

On the micromechanism of superior strength and ductility synergy in a heterostructured Mg-2.77Y alloy

Journal of Magnesium and Alloys
Heterostructured metals and alloys are a new class of materials in which mechanical behaviors between the heterogeneous regions are significantly different, and the mechanical properties of bulk materials are superior to the superposition of individual ...

The Effect of Brazil's Family Health Program on Cognitive Skills

Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the effect of Brazil's Family Health Program (Programa Saude da Familia, FHP) on cognitive skills (measured by test scores) of fifth‐grade students. We use biennial data from national exams between 2007 and 2015, and variation in the FHP implementation date across municipalities, birth cohort, and test year to identify the ...

High strength and ductility in a dual-phase hetero-structured AlCoCrFeNi_2.1 eutectic high-entropy alloy by powder metallurgy [PDF]

We used powder hot extrusion followed by annealing to fabricate a dual-phase AlCoCrFeNi2.1 eutectic high-entropy alloy consisting of both non-recrystallized and recrystallized grains with dense nano-sized precipitates arranged in heterogeneous structures.

Dual-heterostructure-enabled mechanical property enhancement and coordinated deformation mechanisms in laminated Mg composite alloys

Materials Research Letters
A laminated Mg-Zn/Mg–Ca composite sheet with dual heterostructures have been fabricated via accumulative roll bonding and annealing. This architecture introduces heterogeneities in both grain sizes and textures.

Distinctive neurophysiological correlates of sound onset and offset perception in humans

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Electroencephalography (EEG) recordings were obtained from participants listening to successive pairs of 1‐2 s noises in a silent background (Study 1) or successive pairs 1‐2 s silent gaps in a noise background (Study 2). Participants heard the same stimuli in the context of either a duration discrimination task (identifying ...

Transcranial direct current stimulation enhances delayed retention after 5 days of lower‐limb motor skill learning

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic overview of the 5 day lower‐limb motor skill learning protocol combining ankle visuomotor practice with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). Participants were allocated to motor skill practice with active tDCS over the leg representation of primary motor cortex (SKILL‐STIM), motor skill practice with sham ...

Cryogenic strength-ductility synergy in Mg-6Gd-1Zn alloys with bimodal grain structure coupled with basal lamellar phase

Materials Research Letters
Achieving simultaneous strength and ductility at cryogenic temperature (CT) remains challenging for Mg alloys. An extruded Mg-6Gd-1Zn (wt.%) alloy with bimodal grain structure and basal lamellar phases exhibits anomalous strength-ductility synergy at CT.
