Construction and Validation of the Postgraduate Research Innovation Ability Scale (PRIAS): A Three-Dimensional Structural Model Based on Componential Theory of Creativity.

Purpose: To explore the structure of postgraduate research innovation ability and verify the Postgraduate Research Innovation Ability Scale.

Patients And Methods: This study was based on the componential theory of creativity. First, we drafted an item pool from the literature review, semi-structured interviews, and group discussions.

Self-Handicapping in Chinese Medical Students During the COVID-19 Pandemic: The Role of Academic Anxiety, Procrastination and Hardiness.

In the face of the 2019 Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) outbreak, Chinese medical students worried about their future studies which might make them more susceptible to academic anxiety. Previous studies have shown that academic anxiety is an important risk factor for self-handicapping, but there are few studies to explore the relationship between the two which may be mediated or moderated by other variables. Therefore, this study investigated how Chinese medical students' academic anxiety is correlated to their self-handicapping in time of COVID-19 epidemic, and explored the moderating and mediating effects of hardiness and procrastination.

Synapse-associated protein 90/postsynaptic density-95-associated protein (SAPAP) is expressed differentially in phencyclidine-treated rats and is increased in the nucleus accumbens of patients with schizophrenia.

Phencyclidine (PCP) induces a psychotomimetic state that closely resembles schizophrenia. Therefore, PCP-treated animals can provide a model for schizophrenia. Using differential display, we identified a gene regulated by the delayed action of PCP in rat nucleus accumbens (NAcs).

Decreased calcineurin and increased phosphothreonine-DARPP-32 in the striatum of rats behaviorally sensitized to methamphetamine.

We investigated changes in signal transduction via calcineurin (CaN) in the striatum of rats behaviorally sensitized to methamphetamine (Meth). The rats were injected with Meth (4 mg/kg, s.c.

Differential changes in glutamatergic transmission via N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors in the hippocampus and striatum of rats behaviourally sensitized to methamphetamine.

We searched for changes in glutamatergic transmission via N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors in the hippocampus and striatum of rats behaviourally sensitized to methamphetamine (Meth). Prior to being given a challenge dose of Meth (2 mg/kg, s.c.
