The Ending Effect in the Domain of Gambling: The Effect of Gain-Loss Status on Economic Decision-Making.

Previous studies have shown that people prefer risk-taking at the end of gambles, a phenomenon called the ending effect. By using the Guess Gambling Game, we investigated the impact of gain-loss status on the ending effect (Experiment 1) and whether and how this effect may be affected by time reference (Experiment 2) and gender (Experiment 1&2). In Experiment 1, we observed the ending effect only in the gain group.

Longitudinal association between interparental conflict and risk-taking behavior among Chinese adolescents: testing a moderated mediation model.

Background: The interparental conflict has been associated with an increased adolescents' engagement in risk-taking behaviors. However, few studies have examined the potential mediation of deviant peer affiliation and the potential moderation of school climate. Grounded in the ecological system theory, this study aimed to explore the mediating role of deviant peer affiliation and the moderating role of school climate between the association of interparental conflict and risk-taking behavior.

Hydrangea-like α-NiCo(OH) Reinforced by Ethyl Carbamate "Rivet" for All-Solid-State Supercapacitors with Outstanding Comprehensive Performance.

Improving the self-conductivity and structural stability of electrode materials is a key strategy to improve the energy density, rate performance, and cycle life of supercapacitors. Controlled intercalation of ethyl carbamate (CHCHOCONH) as the rivet between Ni-Co hydroxide layers can be used to obtain sufficient ion transport channels and robust structural stability of hydrangea-like α-NiCo(OH) (NC). Combining the improved electronic conductivity offered by the coexistence of Ni and Co optimizing itself electronic conductivity and the addition of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as the electron transport bridge between the active material and the current collector and the large specific surface area (296 m g) reducing the concentration polarization, the capacitance retention ratio of NC-CNT from 0.
