This study developed a \"Dementia Awareness Prediction Model using machine learning to predict the need for dementia education among adult learners, thereby improving resource allocation efficiency. A total of 229 survey responses were collected, and three machine-learning algorithms—Decision Trees, Decision Forests, and Logistic Regression—were used to build predictive models. The results show that all three models effectively predict dementia awareness, with Decision Forests and Logistic Regression demonstrating superior accuracy. Using a reduced set of attributes, the models achieved an average accuracy of over 95.90%, indicating high predictive performance. These findings provide valuable insights for enhancing dementia awareness and optimizing resource distribution in both public and private sectors.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48471,"journal":{"name":"Computers in Human Behavior","volume":"167 ","pages":"Article 108604"},"PeriodicalIF":9.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143452957","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Physiological metrics included Heart Rate Variability (HRV) and EEG, and the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) measured psychological responses. HRV was measured using a Polar H10 chest wrap, with the LF/HF ratio reflecting autonomic nervous system activity.

Results showed that high-visual fidelity avatars induced higher stress levels, particularly during sensitive conversations, as indexed by increased LF/HF ratios and changes in EEG metrics. EEG metrics showed significant changes in Alpha/Beta ratios during sensitive conversations with high-visual fidelity avatars, reflecting potential increased cognitive and emotional stress. The study highlights a critical trade-off between presence and anonymity: high-visual fidelity enhances realism but can elevate stress during sensitive discussions, whereas lower fidelity may encourage a sense of anonymity and reduce social evaluation fears.

GAI focuses on creating new textual and multimodal content using large language models (LLMs), and it puts different demands on EFL learners. Although much research has been conducted on EFL learners' AI literacy in various socio-cultural contexts, more attention should now be paid to EFL learners' GAI literacy in the DMC context, a new autonomous model of literacy. It should be noted that even though some studies may concentrate on users' perceptions and experiences with GAI, which may be closely tied to GAI literacy, there lacks the development of a scale for assessing GAI literacy in DMC. Thus, this study attempted to fill these research gaps by developing and validating an applicable and generalizable instrument to measure Chinese EFL learners' multimodal GAI literacy in their DMC process. Two subsamples (n1 = 296, n2 = 294) were randomly invited to respond to the GAIDMCS, and the data were subjected to exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to test the validity and reliability of the instrument. The findings suggested that a four-factor solution with 17 items can help explain Chinese EFL learners’ GAI literacy in DMC in terms of affective learning, behavior learning, cognitive learning, and ethical learning. Our GAI literacy in DMC scale may help improve GAI education for researchers and practitioners by providing a comprehensive and plausible framework that can serve as an outline for further syllabus design.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48471,"journal":{"name":"Computers in Human Behavior","volume":"166 ","pages":"Article 108569"},"PeriodicalIF":9.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143394459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It also identifies four plausible recommendations: establishing clarity avatar governance, effectively managing privacy and security issues, improving investigative methodologies, and defining accounting and taxation protocols. The findings underscore the urgent need for comprehensive research in metaverse regulation and the development of evidence-based policies to create a secure and well-regulated metaverse environment that will address the unique challenges posed by metacrime.

Support vector machine analysis results verified that these regions’ morphological changes may serve as distinguishing features between the FPS and MOBA groups. Further brain-behavior correlational analysis revealed that increased GM volume or deformation in these regions in FPS players was correlated with higher behavioral test scores. Both FPS and MOBA players also showed higher GM volume or deformation than controls in the primary auditory cortices, which may be associated with long-term exposure to acoustic information.

The current study extended previous research by linking hookup app use with risky sexual behavior as assessed by multi-item scales developed specifically for college students. Furthermore, the current study tested these relationships within an integrated path model which simultaneously examined the potential contributions of leisure boredom, sensation seeking, and gender. A survey of valid and reliable scales was administered to a random sample of 410 US college students (females = 244; hookup app users = 173). Data was analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modeling. Results revealed that hookup app use was significantly and positively related to all measures of risky sexual behavior and these relationships were not moderated by gender. Leisure boredom was a significant and positive predictor of hookup app use but for females only; sensation seeking was a significant and positive predictor of hookup app use for both males and females; additionally, sensation seeking predicted risky sexual behavior independent of app use but for females only. In summary, males and females may have different predictors of hookup app use; however, the associated risky sexual behaviors appear similar for males and females, and significantly riskier than for non-hookup app users.
