At the same time, the novel has also been adapted into various art forms such as films, TV series, theaters, and a Qin opera. In the face of such an excellent work, many scholars consider it a selected topic. However, only some scholars have applied Maslows Hierarchy of Needs theory to analyze the motivations of the characters in the play. In this paper, we review Maslows Hierarchy of Needs Theory, analyze the motivations for the behavior of two female characters in the work of Bailu Plain, Tian Xiaoe, and Bai Ling, using different levels of the theory, and conclude the basic rules. With this article as an example, Maslows Hierarchy of Needs Theory can be used as a theoretical framework for analyzing characters behavior in literary works in the field of social sciences, in addition to business and management psychology.","PeriodicalId":505305,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Humanities Research","volume":"10 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141265580","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The scope of this research is quite broad, and it helps people to explore positions from different perspectives. For this purpose, secondary data intervention with the help of qualitative data has been provided. The focus towards secondary data collection has involved the contribution made by victims of certain scars. This paper explored the relationship between scar and wearable art from different cultural backgrounds, medicine, anthropology, philosophy, psychology and other fields. However, it has been depicted that the link between scars and wearable art is quite strong. Still, there is a certain degree of complacency and dependency on external factors such as the perception of the society and element psychological well-being of the entities. Moreover, gender-related factors and the role of age are also very important in the impact of wearable art, and social pressure and social support also play an important role.","PeriodicalId":505305,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Humanities Research","volume":"1 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141265719","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Taking the novels of gifted scholars and beautiful ladies by Tianhuacang Zhuren as an example, the supernatural writing phenomena can be categorized into three types: dreams, extraordinary encounters, and visions. Supernatural writing plays a crucial role in plot construction, narrative progression, character development, and spatial expansion in novels. It not only reflects the religious cultural concepts of karma and fate shaped by Buddhism and Taoism but also expresses the strong belief in destiny and a sense of superiority among the literati in traditional Chinese society. Moreover, it mirrors the authors creative psychology.","PeriodicalId":505305,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Humanities Research","volume":"1 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141265347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to Saussure, symbols are representative signs of objects, expressing specific content and meaning through particular forms. This study explores the mechanisms and principles of symbols in information dissemination through literature reviews and case analyses, emphasizing their roles in cultural transmission, cognition, and behavioral patterns. With the acceleration of globalization and digitization, symbol design faces new challenges and opportunities, especially with the advancement of artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies pushing symbol design towards automation and intelligence. Furthermore, cross-cultural design of symbols requires consideration of adaptability and effectiveness in varying cultural, social, and technological contexts. This research proposes strategies for cultural sensitivity and adaptability in symbol dissemination across different cultures, aiming to provide new perspectives for semiotics theory and offer scientific guidance and strategies for symbol design practices in fields such as advertising, brand management, media production, and user interface design, thus enhancing effective global information dissemination and cultural exchange.","PeriodicalId":505305,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Humanities Research","volume":"1 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141265439","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This arrangement involves individuals or students opting to stay in someone else's residence, rather than their own, and typically engaging in communal living and daily activities with the host family. The paper examines the frequently neglected elements that contribute to a satisfactory homestay experience, utilising both quantitative and qualitative methodologies. Specifically, it explores the impact of external social factors, such as educational institutions, communities, and organisations, as well as the influence of gender on the homestay experience. This research contends that extrinsic social elements have a substantial impact on students' perceptions of a satisfactory homestay experience. Furthermore, female and male students possess distinct standards when it comes to selecting a highly competent homestay family. The paper asserts that the consideration of social and gender variables should be given more attention when examining the perspectives of students regarding their homestay experience.","PeriodicalId":505305,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Humanities Research","volume":"12 15","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141265470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
