    Abstract COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) has become the deadliest virus to affect the international community in recent history, with more than 760 million people infected and more than 6.87 million deaths as of March 2023; therefore, based on Hofstede's national cultural theory, this study collected Hofstede's six national cultural dimensions on a global scale, namely, power distance (PDI), individualism/collectivism (IDV), masculinity/femininity (MAS), uncertainty avoidance (UAI), long-term/short-term orientation (LTO), and indulgence/restraint (IVR) scores, and COVID-19 data from the World Health Organization (WHO) from 22 February 2020 to 30 February 2021. Then, based on eight items of global COVID-19 data, this study analyzed the correlation between Hofstede's six dimensions and the COVID-19 data from six regions (Africa (AFRO), Europe (EURO), the Americas (AMRO), the Western Pacific (WPRO), South East Asia (SEARO), and the Eastern Mediterranean (EMRO)) divided by the WHO. This study found the following: (1) Hofstede's six cultural dimensions indeed have a significant correlation with the COVID-19 data of different WHO regions in different ways. (2) Except for IDV and UAI, PDI is a highly critical factor and has a significant correlation with the COVID-19 data from AFRO and EMRO. MAS also is an important factor and has a significant correlation with COVID-19 data from WPRO and SEARO. Meanwhile, LTO has a significant correlation with some COVID-19 data from the AMRO region, and IVR has a significant correlation with some COVID-19 data from the EURO region. Finally, the new insights from this study are worthy of further study by scholars, and they will be of great help to global governments and medical institutions in formulating policies to suppress infectious diseases in the future.

    Abstract The career anchors of information technology personnel (ITP) are critical factors influencing their career satisfaction (CS), and these factors are also influenced by national culture. Although a number of scholars have studied the internal CS of employees, these scholars have not explained how to increase the CS of ITP from both individual and organizational perspectives and to further improve the success rate of IS projects. Thus, this study adopts the goal-achievement gap (discrepancy) theory to explore the gap between the "internal career desires (career wants, CW)" and "external career opportunities (career have, CH)" of ITP in two different cultural societies, namely mainland China and the United Arab Emirates, and whether the gap impacts their CS. The data in this study were collected from the Internet. A survey was posted on Internet discussion forums for full-time ITP participants within organizations in China and the United Arab Emirates; thus, the results of this study are possibly only generalizable to these two countries. Finally, the results of this study provide the following contributions: (1) There are 13 career anchors (technical competence, managerial competence, autonomy, organizational stability, challenge, lifestyle, identity, creativity, variety, service, entrepreneurship, geographic security, and learning motivation) of ITP in China, which can be divided into three categories, and these are totally different from the four categories identified by ITP in the United Arab Emirates. (2) The surface analysis approach (RSA) to test the curvilinear relationship between the CW, CH, and CS of ITP indeed can explain more than the linear SEM (structural equation modeling) test between the CW and CS, CH, and CS separately, both tests are in two different cultural societies, China and the United Arab Emirates.

    Abstract Background: Few studies explored the longitudinal link between early-life secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure and later alcohol initiation despite its risk for child behavioral difficulties. We examined the associations of the timing, level, and pattern of SHS exposure from pregnancy to childhood with early alcohol initiation and evaluated the sex differences in these associations.
    Methods: Data were from 16,440 participants of the Taiwan Birth Cohort Study conducted when the children were aged 6 months, 18 months, 3 years, 5.5 years, 8 years, and 12 years. Group-based trajectory modeling was applied to identified patterns of SHS exposure. A series of multiple logistic regression were conducted to examine study hypotheses.
    Results: Exposure to prenatal SHS was associated with an increased risk of early alcohol initiation (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 1.17, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.06, 1.30). Compared with the adolescents with a persistent-low-exposure trajectory, those who exhibited prenatal-high-decreasing (aOR = 1.18, 95% CI = 1.04, 1.35) or persistent-high-exposure (aOR = 1.27, 95% CI = 1.12, 1.45) patterns exhibited increased risks of early alcohol initiation. Those with higher cumulative levels of SHS exposure also exhibited an increased risk of early alcohol initiation (aOR = 1.03, 95% CI = 1.01, 1.04). Sex differences were also observed.
    Conclusions: Varying timing, levels, and longitudinal patterns of SHS exposure during early life had differential effects on early alcohol initiation, with the effects differing by sex. Targeting SHS exposure while considering the nature of exposure and sex differences could help prevent and curb alcohol use in adolescents.

    Abstract In our previous work, cytokinin (CK) signaling and biosynthesis were found to be modulated during Arabidopsis defense against infection by the necrotrophic pathogen Botrytis cinerea. Notably, the expression level of CYTOKININ OXIDASE/DEHYDROGENASE 5 (CKX5) was significantly induced in B. cinerea-infected leaves and later in distant B. cinerea-untreated leaves of the same plant. To confirm and determine how CKX5 is involved in the response to B. cinerea infection, transcript levels of CKX family genes were analyzed in B. cinerea-inoculated leaves, and only CKX5 was remarkably induced by B. cinerea infection. Furthermore, CKX5-overexpressing Arabidopsis plants were more resistant to B. cinerea than wild-type plants. Transcription factors (TFs) binding to the CKX5 promoter were then screened by yeast one-hybrid assays. Quantitative Real-Time Reverse Transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis further showed that genes encoding TFs, including WRKY40, WRKY33, ERF6, AHL15, AHL17, ANAC003, TCP13 and ANAC019, were also strongly induced in infected leaves, similar to CKX5. Analysis of ERF6-overexpressing plants and ERF6-and AHL15-knockout mutants indicated that ERF6 and AHL15 are involved in plant immunity to B. cinerea. Furthermore, CKX5 upregulation by B. cinerea infection was affected when ERF6 or AHL15 levels were altered. Our work suggests that CKX5 levels are controlled by the plant defense system to defend against attack by the pathogen B. cinerea.

    Abstract In this study, the researchers aimed to understand the life experience of older widowed women living alone. Employing a phenomenological approach, we interviewed 15 older women (age 62 to 95) living alone at homes in two villages in Central Java. Through systematic text condensation procedure, we identified five themes: (1) negative feelings at times, (2) getting used to living alone, (3) needing help to support independent living, (4) coping toward negative feelings, (5) attachment to the original house. We depicted the struggles of older women living alone in their homes. Despite the coping strategies they have developed over time, older women needed help during hard times, especially when getting sick. Families and neighbors were the main resources to maintain their independent living. Improving the home environment to increase suitability for aging residents and providing a support system are the options that best fit the needs and values the older women believed.

    Abstract Background: Family environment is a key factor affecting children's health. However, little is known about whether and how the family environment affects sleep duration in children. This study investigated the effects of both physical and social characteristics of the family environment on sleep duration in children and determined whether these associations were mediated by maternal mental health.
    Methods: Data were obtained from the Taiwan Birth Cohort Study. A total of 19,400 children who completed 6-month, 18-month, 3-year, 5.5-year, and 8-year surveys were analyzed. The physical family environment characteristics were household crowding and housing quality. Family functioning was used as an indicator of family social environment. Multiple linear regression and path analysis were performed to test the hypotheses.
    Results: The children living in crowded households had shorter sleep durations (β = -0.03, p < .001). Superior housing quality and family functioning were associated with longer sleep durations (β = 0.04 and 0.02, respectively, ps < .01). The effects of housing quality and family functioning on sleep duration were mediated by maternal mental health.
    Conclusions: Both physical and social characteristics of the family environment are critical to sleep duration in children. The effects of family environment characteristics on sleep duration in children are in part mediated by maternal mental health. Interventions to improve sleep during childhood by targeting the family environment may be more effective when maternal mental health is considered.

    Abstract The error probability of block codes sent under a non-uniform input distribution over the memoryless binary symmetric channel (BSC) and decoded via the maximum a posteriori (MAP) decoding rule is investigated. It is proved that the ratio of the probability of MAP decoder ties to the probability of error grows most linearly in blocklength when no MAP decoding ties occur, thus showing that decoder ties do not affect the code's error exponent. This result generalizes a similar recent result shown for the case of block codes transmitted over the BSC under a uniform input distribution.
