Summary: In recent years, short videos have become a critical source of information. However, excessive use of algorithmic technology by short video platforms has led to intensified group polarization and the formation of homogeneous echo chambers. These echo chambers can contribute to the spread of misleading information, false news, or rumors, which have detrimental social impacts. This paper investigates the echo chamber effects on three popular short video platforms and explores the influence of user features on the formation of echo chambers.

Summary: Under globalization, interregional trade and industry relocation have significantly reduced atmospheric levels and deposition of BaP in the Arctic, with the most pronounced effects observed in the European and North American Arctic regions. Despite increased BaP contamination in the Asian Arctic due to industry relocations in China, India, and South and Southeast Asia, the reductions in significant pollution in European and North American Arctic regions outweigh these minor increases. Transfer of industries from North to South could potentially decrease trade-related BaP contamination by 60% in the Arctic.

Summary: This study integrates the health belief model, social support theory, and critical health literacy perspective to understand online health information seeking behavior among patients with chronic conditions. The results show that perceived risk and perceived benefits significantly influence patients' online health information seeking. Informational support and emotional support also play a positive role in patients' perceived benefits of online health information sources. Furthermore, critical health literacy has a negative moderating effect on the relationship between perceived risk and online health information seeking.

Summary: This study examines the influence of endorsements on scientific crowdfunding campaigns using signaling theory. The results show that endorsements generally have a positive effect on campaign performance, specifically in terms of project implications and participant recognition. The identity and agreement of the endorser, as well as the research background and condition statement, also play a role in crowdfunding success. Additionally, the order of endorsement presentation, with a person-centric approach followed by project details, proves to be more effective. Endorsement sentiment is found to significantly impact fundraising and participation outcomes, with high-sentiment endorsements leading to better campaign performance.

Summary: Evaluating the quality of online health information (OHI) is a major challenge facing consumers. PageGraph, an interface designed based on credibility evaluation models, the nudge theory, and empirical research, displays quality indicators and associated values for a webpage. Qualitative evaluation showed that PageGraph rendered the intended effects by providing easier access to indicators, encouraging fresh assessment angles, and validating initial judgments. The quantitative evaluation did not find significant differences between the control and experimental groups. Insufficiency of the implemented nudges and webpage stimuli may have contributed to these results. Future directions for applying nudges to support OHI evaluation were discussed.

Summary: Social media has provided users with more convenience in accessing, sharing, and preserving information, but digital hoarding has become a concerning phenomenon in hedonic social media use. This study investigates the causes of digital hoarding and how it is exacerbated in the hedonic social media context. The study found that fear of missing out (FoMO) significantly affects the accumulation and difficulty deleting of information. Additionally, social media affordances, such as recommending and content-sharing, moderate the influence of FoMO on digital hoarding.

Summary: Millimeter-sized Ce2Rh3+delta Sb4 (delta approximate to 1/8) single crystals were synthesized and their physical properties were studied. The crystals exhibit quasi-one-dimensional electronic character and magnetic easy plane. At a low temperature of 1.4 K, a long-range antiferromagnetic transition occurs. The Ce2Rh3+delta Sb4 represents a rare example of a dense Kondo lattice with weak but competing Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida exchange and Kondo coupling.

Summary: This article addresses two important issues in automatic personality analysis systems: the use of short video segments or single frames for inferring personality traits, and the lack of methods for encoding person-specific facial dynamics. To tackle these issues, the paper proposes a novel Rank Loss for self-supervised learning of facial dynamics and a method to represent person-specific dynamics. The approach achieves promising results in personality estimation and shows the importance of the tasks performed by the subject in the video and the use of multi-scale dynamics.
