Objective: The present study examined ADHD symptoms among college students in China and the United States.

Method: A total of 283 (45%) American and 343 (55%) Chinese students completed the Wender Utah Rating Scale (WURS) and the Current Symptoms Scale (CSS), in addition to other measures.

Results: Both of the ADHD measures appear to be reliable and valid, with good internal consistency, similar factor structures, and predicted relationships with other variables, such as depression and self-esteem. However, differences exist between the cultures in gender and overall reported symptom severity.

Conclusion: ADHD symptomatology is present among college students in China in a pattern similar to that found in American college students. The WURS and the CSS appear to be effective screening measures for the disorder in China, although further research on gender and cultural differences is necessary.

The current study aims to determine how the interactions between practice (distributed/focused) and mental capacity (high/low) in the cloud-computing environment (CCE) affect the development of reproductive health skills and cognitive absorption. The study employed an experimental design, and it included a categorical variable for mental capacity (low/high) and an independent variable with two types of activities (distributed/focused). The research sample consisted of 240 students from the College of Science and College of Applied Medical Sciences at the University of Hail's.

Transformer is a powerful model widely used in artificial intelligence applications. It contains complex structures and has extremely high computational requirements that are not suitable for embedded intelligent sensors with limited computational resources. The binary quantization technology takes up less memory space and has a faster calculation speed; however, it is seldom studied for the lightweight transformer.

Rolling bearings play a crucial role in industrial equipment, and their failure is highly likely to cause a series of serious consequences. Traditional deep learning-based bearing fault diagnosis algorithms rely on large amounts of training data; training and inference processes consume significant computational resources. Thus, developing a lightweight and suitable fault diagnosis algorithm for small samples is particularly crucial.

The application of dynamic data in biomechanics is crucial; traditional laboratory-level force measurement systems are precise, but they are costly and limited to fixed environments. To address these limitations, empirical evidence supports the widespread adoption of portable force-measuring platforms, with recommendations for their ongoing development and enhancement. Taiyuan University of Technology has collaborated with KunWei Sports Technology Co.
