A general theory for estimating the size of a closed population from multiple-recapture data is presented. This theory is easily extended to open population models for multiple-recapture data. Estimation is based on a log-linear model developed for modeling dependent capture-recapture data when capture probabilities vary temporally with behavioral response and are heterogeneous among animals. Models for complete capture history data are developed along with the first log-linear models for removal data. The maximum likelihood estimator of the model parameters along with the estimated covariance matrix are presented.

This research explores the determinants affecting academic researchers' acceptance of AI writing tools using the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA). The impact of attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived barriers on researchers' intentions to adopt these technologies is examined through a cross-sectional survey of 150 researchers. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) is employed to evaluate the measurement and structural models.

Background: The demand for frailty care is continuously increasing in hospitalized tumor patients with the aging of the population. Nurses are the primary care providers of hospitalized tumor patients with frailty but research on exploring their behavior and associated factors is limited. This study aims to describe the current situation of frailty care behaviors in oncology nurses and to explore the factors influencing frailty care behaviors.

In the theory of condensed-phase spectroscopy, local field effect is of general importance to account for intermolecular electrostatic interactions. The present paper extends the microscopic treatment of local field effects on the sum frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy to incorporate quadrupole interactions, since their roles have been increasingly recognized in the SFG spectroscopy. The extended theory involves some corrections to the conventional formulas of the nonlinear susceptibilities in both the interface and bulk regions, including the χIQB term.

The Marcus semi-classical and quantum theories of electron transfer (ET) have been extensively used to understand and predict tunneling ET reaction rates in the condensed phase. Previously, the traditional Marcus two-state model has been extended to a three-state model, which assumes a harmonic dependence of donor (D), bridge (B), and acceptor (A) free energies on the reaction (e.g.

Level-2 visuo-spatial perspective-taking (VPT) helps us to understand how the world appears for another person. The process has been linked to conceptual forms of perspective-taking, such as empathic perspective-taking. The present study tested whether similarity to the target of the process, as indicated by gender (in)congruency, affects its embodiment and conclusively answers the question whether there are gender differences in VPT performance.
