Dual pathways of aging stereotype threat at work: impacts on work behaviors of older workers by Lidan Liu, Zhongjun Wang, Xicheng Guo, Sulei Li, Xiaodi Wu

“…This study aims to address this gap by employing a dual mediation model, grounded in Uncertainty-Identity Theory and Psychological Reactance Theory, to explore the effects of aging stereotype threat on older workers’ behaviors. Using structural equation modeling (SEM) with two-wave data from older employees in various industries, the study shows that aging stereotype threat significantly affects aging identity, which fully mediates its link to work withdrawal behaviors. …”

Vascularization of Nanohydroxyapatite/Collagen/Poly(L-lactic acid) Composites by Implanting Intramuscularly In Vivo by Hai Wang, Xiao Chang, Guixing Qiu, Fuzhai Cui, Xisheng Weng, Baozhong Zhang, Xiaojie Lian, Zhihong Wu

“…In previous studies, a nanohydroxyapatite/collagen/poly(L-lactic acid) (nHAC/PLA) composite, similar to natural bone in both composition and structure, has been prepared. It could repair small sized bone defects, but they were restricted to repair a large defect due to the lack of oxygen and nutrition supply for cell survival without vascularization. …”

Mechanical Properties of New Composite Wood-Plastic Formworks with Aluminum Alloy Frame by Kairong Shi, Jiebin Xu, Zhengrong Jiang, Junfeng Lv, Yonghui Lu

“…Experimental investigation shows that the two types of wood-plastic formworks demonstrate favorable performance, and the deflections and stresses are within the allowable range, thereby satisfying the structural bearing requirements. Numerical analyses confirm that the results of the refined and general finite element models are consistent with the experimental results, but the former has a higher accuracy. …”

Optimal information dissemination strategy to promote preventivebehaviors in multilayer epidemic networks by Heman Shakeri, Faryad Darabi Sahneh, Caterina Scoglio, Pietro Poggi-Corradini, Victor M. Preciado

“…Contact network (CN) incorporates physical contacts, and the information dissemination network (IDN) represents non-physical contacts, thereby generating a multilayer network structure. Inherent differences between these two layers cause alerting through CN to be more effective but more expensive than IDN. …”
