The case study aimed to decrease the agression and acting out behavior as result of being victimized at school by the peers. The aim was to assess and manage the child’s aggressive behavior and academic underperformance which played a significant role in the child’s low self-esteem and emotional regulation. A comprehensive assessment was conducted to rule out the difficulties and a multi-faceted intervention strategy was utilized including anger management and structured activity scheduling that helped that child to improve his academic performance as well as to learn to manage his emotional expression. Throughout 16 sessions, the intervention targeted key behavioural indicators such as emotional expression, and aggression;post-assessment results demonstrated a 22% improvement in the child’s behavioral and academic challenges. The findings suggest that a multi-faceted therapeutic approach can be effective in addressing complex issues of aggression and academic underperformance in children, highlighting the importance of integrated psychological and educational interventions.展开更多

文摘The Traveling Salesman Problem(TSP)is a well-known NP-Hard problem,particularly challenging for conventional solving methods due to the curse of dimensionality in high-dimensional instances.This paper proposes a novel Double-stage Surrogate-assisted Pigeon-inspired Optimization algorithm(DOSA-PIO)to address this issue.DOSA-PIO integrates the ordering points to identify the clustering structure method for data clustering and employs a local surrogate model to assist the evolution of the Pigeon-inspired Optimization(PIO)algorithm.This combination enhances the algorithm’s ability to explore the solution space and converge to optimal solutions more effectively.Additionally,two novel approaches are introduced to extend the generalizability of continuous algorithms for solving discrete problems,enabling the adaptation of continuous optimization techniques to the discrete nature of TSP.Extensive experiments using benchmark functions and high-dimensional TSP instances demonstrate that DOSA-PIO significantly outperforms comparative algorithms in various dimensions(10D,20D,30D,50D,and 100D).The proposed algorithm provides superior solutions compared to traditional methods,highlighting its potential for solving high-dimensional TSPs.By leveraging advanced data clustering techniques and surrogate-assisted optimization,DOSA-PIO offers an effective solution for high-dimensional TSP instances,with experimental results confirming its superior performance and potential for practical applications in complex optimization problems.
文摘With the widespread adoption of smartphones,parental phubbing behaviors have become increasingly prevalent,potentially affecting preschool children’s development.Current research primarily focuses on adolescent populations,while the mechanisms through which parental phubbing and authoritarian parenting style influence preschool children’s behavioral problems within the Chinese cultural context remain to be explored.Our investigation seeks to examine the factors contributing to behavioral difficulties among children of preschool age and provide theoretical guidance for prevention.Methods In our research,we utilized a convenience sampling approach to collect data from parents whose children(n=612)were between 3 and 7 years of age.The questionnaire distribution was facilitated via the Wenjuanxing online survey platform.Research instruments included the Parental Phubbing Scale,Parent-Child Relationship Scale,Authoritarian Parenting Style Scale,and Conners Child Behavior Rating Scale.For analytical procedures,we employed SPSS 24.0 to generate descriptive statistics and correlation analysis.Chain mediation effects were examined via Process macro,while significance assessment of the mediating effects relied on the Bootstrap method for constructing 95%confidence intervals.Results A statistically significant positive association was observed between parental phubbing and behavioral problems exhibited by children(r=0.251,p<0.001).Parental phubbing exhibited a significant direct effect on children’s behavioral problems(β=0.088,p<0.001).Analysis of sequential mediation demonstrated that authoritarian parenting style together with parent-child conflict functioned as significant intermediary variables in the relationship between parental phubbing and children’s problem behaviors(β=0.163,p<0.001),with these indirect pathways constituting 64.94%of the total effect.Conclusion Parental phubbing significantly contributes to behavioral problems in preschool children.Parents should monitor their media use,improve their parenting approach,and enhance parent-child relationships to reduce behavioral problems in preschool children.

文摘In this paper,we study a class of Sturm-Liouville problems,where the boundary conditions involve eigenparameters.Firstly,by defining a new inner product which depends on the transmission conditions,we obtain a new Hilbert space,on which the concerned operator A is self-adjoint.Then we construct the fundamental solutions to the problem,obtain the necessary and sufficient conditions for eigenvalues,and prove that the eigenvalues are simple.Finally,we investigate Green’s functions of such problem.
文摘BACKGROUND As the aging process has accelerated,psychological problems in older patients with chronic heart failure(CHF)have become increasingly prominent,significantly affecting their quality of life and prognosis.This study explored a sports rehabilitation program based on the concept of medical care-family integration to provide patients with comprehensive and effective rehabilitation interventions and improve their health status.AIM To explore the effects of medical care-family integration-based exercise rehabilitation in older patients with CHF and psychological problems.METHODS Data from 118 older patients with CHF and psychological problems were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were divided into conventional(n=56)and exercise rehabilitation groups(n=62).The results of the 6-min walking distance(6 MWD),N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDD),left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),Minnesota living with heart failure questionnaire(MLHFQ),generalized anxiety disorder-7(GAD-7)scale,9-item patient health questionnaire(PHQ-9)and Athens insomnia scale(AIS)were compared before and after intervention.RESULTS After intervention,there were significant differences in the number of patients with depression and anxiety between the two groups.There was also a significant difference in the distribution of sleep disorders.The PHQ-9 score,GAD-7 score,AIS score,NT-proBNP value,LVEDD value,physical field,emotional field,other fields,and MLHFQ total scores were lower in the exercise rehabilitation group compared to the conventional rehabilitation group,while the 6 MWD and LVEF values were higher compared to the conventional rehabilitation group(P<0.05).During the intervention period,the readmission rate of the exercise rehabilitation group(1.61%)was significantly lower than that of the conventional rehabilitation group(12.50%)(χ^(2)=3.930,P=0.047).CONCLUSION This exercise rehabilitation program with medical care-family integration can improve cardiac function and quality of life,alleviate psychological problems,and reduce readmission rates in older patients with CHF.
文摘In this paper,the physics informed neural network(PINN)deep learning method is applied to solve two-dimensional nonlocal equations,including the partial reverse space y-nonlocal Mel'nikov equation,the partial reverse space-time nonlocal Mel'nikov equation and the nonlocal twodimensional nonlinear Schr?dinger(NLS)equation.By the PINN method,we successfully derive a data-driven two soliton solution,lump solution and rogue wave solution.Numerical simulation results indicate that the error range between the data-driven solution and the exact solution is relatively small,which verifies the effectiveness of the PINN deep learning method for solving high dimensional nonlocal equations.Moreover,the parameter discovery of the partial reverse space-time nonlocal Mel'nikov equation is analysed in terms of its soliton solution for the first time.
