Sujie Wang is an associate Professor of Tourism Management, Shandong University (China). Her research interests focus on quality of life, social-cultural impacts of tourism and destination images.Based on empowerment theory, spillover theory, and cognitive appraisal theory, this study examined the interactive relationships among residents’ community empowerment, life domain satisfaction (LDS), overall quality of life (QoL), and support for tourism (SFT) in rural contexts. Using data collected from 412 residents in rural destinations, the results indicated that psychological empowerment directly influenced residents’ support for tourism and political empowerment positively affected their overall QoL, while all the 3 dimensions of community empowerment influenced life domain satisfaction directly. Besides, the findings found that life domain satisfaction partially mediated the relationships between community empowerment and SFT. Finally, community empowerment affected residents’ SFT through LDS and overall QoL. Theoretical and practical implications were discussed as well

Unveiling Stimulation Secrets of Electrical Excitation of Neural Tissue Using a Circuit Probability Theory
Get PDFElectrical excitation of neural tissue has wide applications, but how electrical stimulation interacts with neural tissue remains to be elucidated. Here, we propose a new theory, named the Circuit-Probability theory, to reveal how this physical interaction happen. The relation between the electrical stimulation input and the neural response can be theoretically calculated. We show that many empirical models, including strength-duration relationship and linear-non-linear-Poisson model, can be theoretically explained, derived, and amended using our theory. Furthermore, this theory can explain the complex non-linear and resonant phenomena and fit in vivo experiment data. In this letter, we validated an entirely new framework to study electrical stimulation on neural tissue, which is to simulate voltage waveforms using a parallel RLC circuit first, and then calculate the excitation probability stochastically. © Copyright © 2020 Wang, Wang, Thow, Lee, Peh, Ng, He, Thakor and Lee.1
Transformational leadership and teachers’ voice behaviour: A moderated mediation model of group voice climate and team psychological safety
No full textTeachers’ voice behaviour has attracted growing attention in universities due to its positive outcomes for institutional reform and improvement. This study investigated how and under what conditions university leaders’ transformational leadership is beneficial to teachers’ voice behaviour using data collected from 434 teachers from universities in China. As a result, we proposed a moderated mediation model of the association between transformational leadership and teachers’ voice behaviour in which group voice climate was used as the mediator and team psychological safety as the moderator. The results revealed evidence of an indirect effect of transformational leadership on teachers’ voice behaviour through the significant mediating role of group voice climate. Moreover, we found evidence that team psychological safety acts as a significant moderator of group voice climate and teachers’ voice behaviour and strengthens the effect of the entire mediating mechanism. Specifically, the mediation effect of group voice climate was significant when team psychological safety levels were at medium or high rather than low levels. Our findings provide a deeper understanding of the benefits and effective mechanism of the impact of transformational leadership on teachers’ voice behaviour in the Chinese university context and offer practical suggestions for facilitating teachers’ voice behaviour in institutions
Spin fluctuations in the dissipative phase transitions of the quantum Rabi model
No full textWe investigate the dissipative phase transitions of the anisotropic quantum Rabi model with cavity decay and demonstrate that large spin fluctuations persist in the stationary state, having important consequences on the phase diagram and the critical properties. In the second-order phase transition to the superradiant phase, there is a significant suppression of the order parameter and the appearance of nonuniversal factors, which directly reflect the spin populations. Furthermore, upon entering a parameter regime where mean-field theory predicts a tricritical phase, we find a first-order phase transition due to the unexpected collapse of superradiance. An accurate and physically transparent description going beyond mean-field theory is established by combining exact numerical simulations, the cumulant expansion, and analytical approximations based on reduced master equations and an effective equilibrium theory. Our findings, compared to the conventional thermodynamic limit of the Dicke model, indicate a general tendency of forming extreme nonequilibrium states in the single-spin system, thus have broad implications for dissipative phase transitions of few-body systems

Xinke Wang is a second year graduate student in Tourism Management at Shandong University, China. Her research interests include red tourism and quality of lifeBased on the theory of inseparability nature of service, service dominant logic, and SOR model, this study examined the interactive relationships among tourists’ co-creation of experience, self-esteem, satisfaction with travel experience, quality of life, and green behavior. Using data collected from 493 tourists in China, the results indicated that co-creation of experience directly influenced their self-esteem, satisfaction with travel experience, and green behavior. Besides, the findings found that emotional experience (satisfaction with travel experience, self-esteem, quality of life) partially mediated the relationships between co-creation experience and green behavior. Finally, co-creation affected tourists’ green behavior through the chain mediating role of self-esteem, satisfaction with travel experience, and quality of life. Theoretical and practical implications were discussed as well
A Symplectic Numerical Power Flow Framework Based on Wave Finite-Element Method for Assembled Structural Systems
Get PDFIdentifying the propagation paths of dominant wave modes in complex assembled structure is critical for implementing wave-based vibration and noise control strategies, such as phononic band gaps. This paper presents a symplectic numerical framework to compute the wave-mode power flow in engineering assembled structures based on wave finite element method (WFEM). The power orthogonality among wave modes is explicitly formulated through the symplectic orthogonality (SO) and its adjoint form (SAO), and this formulation is further extended to the Zhong-Williams and lambda(phi) symplectic schemes. The generalized symplectic adjoint orthogonality (GSAO) and phi_SAO are subsequently proposed, providing a physically consistent basis for modal diagonalization and coherent wave propagation within the generalized symplectic eigenspace. These developments enable direct computation of the forced response and power flow entirely within the symplectic space, without reverting to the wave space. Six power-flow formulations are systematically compared and shown to yield consistent results on both beam and cylindrical shell structures. An electric motor housing is used as a case study, in which the proposed approach establishes a wave-mode power flow network. It is noted that the power-flow formulation relies on symplectic orthogonality defined for conservative WFEM systems and therefore cannot be directly applied to non-Hermitian systems
