Despite growing attention to the phenomenon of intensified job demand in the workplace, empirical research investigating the underlying behavioral mechanisms that link work intensification to workplace well-being is limited. In particular, a study on whether these behavioral mechanisms are dependent on certain type of individual difference is absent. Using data collected from 356 Chinese health care professionals, this study utilized a dual-path moderated mediation model to investigate the mediating role of job crafting behavior between work intensification and workplace well-being, and the moderating role of work addiction on this indirect path. The results demonstrated that although work intensification was negatively associated with workplace well-being, this effect was more likely to take place for non-workaholics. Specifically, compared with non-workaholics, workaholics were more prone to engage in job crafting behavior in terms of seeking resources and crafting towards strengths, and therefore less likely to have reduced well-being experience. Results are discussed in terms of their implications for research and practice.

The adoption of Integrated Striga Management (ISM) technology has been recommended as an effective approach to mitigating Striga infestation, a significant challenge to maize productivity and food security. Despite substantial efforts by stakeholders to promote its deployment, adoption levels remain low. This study utilized data from 643 smallholder farmers sampled across Bauchi and Kano states in Northern Nigeria.

A broad spectrum of research is reviewed ranging from studies that have examined the mechanisms involved in thermal intensification and tactile masking, to more applied work that has focused on implementing thermal-tactile illusions such as thermal referral and illusory wetness in VR environments. Research on these tactile-thermal illusions has identified the differences between the senses of cold and warmth in terms of their effects on the perception of object properties and the prevalence of the perceptual experiences elicited.

This study explores optimization strategies for hydrogen-methane co-production from enzymatically hydrolyzed corn stover, focusing on the effects of timed hydrogen effluent (HE) addition on methane yield and underlying mechanisms. Enzymatic hydrolysis produced a cumulative hydrogen yield of 53.6 ± 3.

Background: Prior research has established associations among screen time, depressive symptoms, and sleep. However, the nuances of these associations, particularly regarding directionality and sex-specific differences among early adolescents, remain insufficiently understood. This study aimed to investigate sex differences in the longitudinal associations among screen time, depressive symptoms, and sleep at the symptom level during early adolescence.

Background And Objective: International guidelines recommend treatment intensification combining docetaxel or androgen receptor pathway inhibitors with androgen deprivation therapy for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). However, evidence suggests underuse in many high-income countries. This study evaluates the use of treatment intensification in the English National Health Service (NHS) and explores patient and hospital-level factors associated with variation.
