Environmental values, environmental culture and business sustainability

Corporate environmental values and corporate environmental culture are intrinsically linked, and both are critical to the success of sustainability initiatives in an organization. The objective of this research is to analyze the relationship between corporate environmental values, corporate environmental culture and corporate sustainability and their influence on the conservation and protection of the environment. Methodologically, the research was developed applying a theoretical, documentary-type approach, using the inductive method. For its development, content analysis was used as a technique, which made it possible to find the relationships of the categories studied that allowed the theoretical construction to be carried out. The results show that values drive environmental culture and environmental culture reinforces values by promoting behaviors and decisions consistent with those values. Both categories work together to promote sustainability and environmental responsibility within an organization and when managed effectively and mutually reinforcing can have a significant positive impact on the environment and the long-term success of the company. It concludes by pointing out that to achieve business sustainability, it is important to promote values and develop environmental culture in companies.

Stochastic ray tracing for Fresnel diffraction

We propose stochastic ray tracing for laser beam propagation in Fresnel diffraction to find the duality between wave and ray representations. We transform from the Maxwell equations to the Schrödinger equation for a monochromatic laser beam in the slowly varying envelope approximation. The stochastic ray tracing method interprets this Schrödinger equation as a stochastic process, of an analogy of Nelson’s stochastic mechanics. It can illustrate the stochastic paths and the wavefront of an optical beam. This ray tracing method includes Fresnel diffraction effects naturally. We show its general theoretical construction and numerical tests for a Gaussian laser beam with diffraction, that stochasticity realizes the beam waist around the Rayleigh range.

The essentiality of curricular environmental education in schools for the realization of the Right to Sustainability

Curricular Environmental Education in schools plays a fundamental role in promoting the right to a sustainable environment. It is a concept that goes beyond simply teaching about ecology and preservation, being a process that aims to form conscious citizens, capable of understanding the interdependence as well as the integrality between human beings and the environment. Teaching about the environment is important in several aspects. Firstly, it helps to raise students' awareness of environmental issues, making them aware of the challenges and threats the planet faces, such as climate change, pollution and biodiversity loss. This encourages empathy and concern for the environment. Furthermore, environmental education provides tools so that students can act sustainably in their daily lives. The purpose of this theoretical essay is to provide a study on environmental education and its direct impact on decision-making at a political level and on the promotion of environmentally conscious public policies in the field of school education. Research shows that citizens educated in this area are more able to actively participate in environmental issues, pushing more for sustainable policies and making informed decisions in elections. Environmental education in schools is essential to ensure that future generations have a healthy and sustainable environment, becoming a crucial tool in realizing the right to a sustainable environment. In the essay, the methodology of theoretical construction is used based on a bibliographical review, with exploratory research.

The Knowledge Landscape and Local Characteristics of Learning Engagement Research in China:A Bibliometric Analysis Based on CNKI and CSSCI

The study of learning engagement has been fruitful since it entered the vision of Chinese scholars at the end of the 20th century. Taking 2, 389 and 199 valid citing documents from CNKI and CSSCI Database respectively, and the corresponding 4039 cited documents from the latter as the analyzed samples, and comprehensively using bibliometric method and traditional bibliographic method, this paper describes and presents a four-dimensional knowledge picture containing the accumulation history of literature on learning input research in China, main research teams, knowledge base and hot topics of learning engagement research in China, and refines local characteristics based on this. It is found that: (1) Chinese learning engagement research has generated five attributes in its process of development: the process of document accumulation has gone through two stages of “budding period and growth period”; the main research team is composed of scholars from comprehensive universities and normal colleges and universities; the research content has formed the distribution of “multi-action mechanism exploration, less theoretical concept construction”; the research method shows a decreasing law of “more quantitative research, less qualitative research”; research objects presents the characteristics of “focusing on higher education and running through the three stages of primary education, secondary education and higher education”. (2) Chinese learning engagement research has obtained many heterogeneous findings in the comparison: mainly including the development of tools that are closer to Chinese educational practice and the findings that are more in line with the experience of Chinese learners.

Untangling influences of information relevance and media richness on health anxiety and COVID-19-related stress: perspective of stimulus-organism-response

PurposeIn light of the stimulus-organism-response (SOR) theoretical paradigm, this paper explores how information relevance and media richness affect social network exhaustion and, moreover, how social network exhaustion ultimately leads to health anxiety and COVID-19-related stress.Design/methodology/approachThe conceptual model is explicitly analyzed and estimated by using data from 309 individuals of different ages in mainland China. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modeling (SEM) were utilized to validate the proposed hypotheses through the use of online data.FindingsThe findings suggest that information relevance is negatively associated with social network exhaustion. In addition, social network exhaustion is a significant predictor of health anxiety and stress. Furthermore, information relevance and media richness can indirectly influence health anxiety and stress through the mediating effect of social network exhaustion.Research limitations/implicationsTheoretically, this paper verifies the causes and consequences of social network exhaustion during COVID-19, thus making a significant contribution to the theoretical construction and refinement of this emerging research area. Practically, the conceptual research model in this paper may provide inspiration for more investigators and scholars who are inclined to further explore the different dimensions of social network exhaustion by utilizing other variables.Originality/valueAlthough social network exhaustion and its adverse consequences have become prevalent, relatively few empirical studies have addressed the deleterious effects of social network exhaustion on mobile social media users’ psychosocial well-being and mental health during the prolonged COVID-19. These findings have important theoretical and practical implications for the rational development and construction of mobile social technologies to cultivate proper health awareness and mindset during the ongoing worldwide COVID-19 epidemic.

Public opinion risk perception of decision makers’ in transboundary watershed emergency water supply

ABSTRACT In recent years, the number of public opinion risks related to sudden transboundary drought events has continued to increase. Research on the perception of public opinion risks has become an indispensable and increasingly important part of emergency management research in transboundary watersheds. Based on relevant literature and interview materials, an exploratory theoretical construction was conducted using the grounded theory research method. The research results indicate that four main categories of public opinion risks, namely, political, economic, ecological and environmental, and socio-cultural, have a significant impact on the perception of public opinion risks among decision-makers in transboundary watershed emergency water supply. The formation mechanisms of decision-makers’ perception of public opinion risks vary in each of these four categories. This research not only enriches the relevant research on the influencing factors of decision-makers’ perception of public opinion risks in theory but also provides decision-making reference and guidance for transboundary watershed water resource management in practice.

Assessment of reclaimed water utilization in water-scarce regions of China: A multi-dimensional–multi-agent coupling and nesting perspective

Reclaimed water utilization is a vital strategy for combatting global water scarcity. In China, diverse degrees and types of water scarcity have led to insufficient and unbalanced reclaimed water utilization. To address this problem, this study introduces a novel perspective that considers multi-dimensional (reclaimed water quantity–quality–price) and multi-agent (reclaimed water producers–consumers–government) coupling and nesting to establish a comprehensive framework for evaluating the reclaimed water utilization level (RWUL) in water-scarce regions. This comprehensive framework, comprising theoretical research, model construction, and region selection, is applied to water-scarce regions of China. The findings reveal that the RWUL grades in these regions are generally modest—Grades I to III (lower-level to high-level reclaimed water utilization). The RWUL grades vary based on regional water scarcity combinations. RWUL grades in water-scarce regions characterized by low water quality scarcity (Type C) are lower than those in regions with high water quantity and high water quality scarcity (Type H), low water quantity and high water quality scarcity (Type G), and low water quantity and low water quality (Type D). However, none of these regions achieved Grade IV (higher-level reclaimed water utilization). Consequently, based on the identified main influencing factors of RWUL, this study proposes five region-tailored measures for each water scarcity combination of regions to enhance their RWUL. By offering a comprehensive framework for assessing RWUL in water-scarce regions of China, this study not only identifies the existing shortcomings in reclaimed water utilization but also provides tailored measures for improvement. These insights are essential for policymakers seeking to implement targeted measures that promote reclaimed water utilization in water-scarce regions.

Understanding quantum machine learning also requires rethinking generalization

Quantum machine learning models have shown successful generalization performance even when trained with few data. In this work, through systematic randomization experiments, we show that traditional approaches to understanding generalization fail to explain the behavior of such quantum models. Our experiments reveal that state-of-the-art quantum neural networks accurately fit random states and random labeling of training data. This ability to memorize random data defies current notions of small generalization error, problematizing approaches that build on complexity measures such as the VC dimension, the Rademacher complexity, and all their uniform relatives. We complement our empirical results with a theoretical construction showing that quantum neural networks can fit arbitrary labels to quantum states, hinting at their memorization ability. Our results do not preclude the possibility of good generalization with few training data but rather rule out any possible guarantees based only on the properties of the model family. These findings expose a fundamental challenge in the conventional understanding of generalization in quantum machine learning and highlight the need for a paradigm shift in the study of quantum models for machine learning tasks.

The format relationship in humorous content: infomercial and skit

The present research has the objective of conceptually referring to the classic format of infomercials and the format that the Porta dos Fundos channel produces its advertising videos. The study of infomercials is important for advertising, because this format is one of the most used in the promotion of products and services in direct marketing. Through branded content, the Porta dos Fundos channel developed its own format for inserting advertising content into its content productions. The work aims to convert the advertising videos of the Porta dos Fundos objective with the classic form of Polishop infomercials, understanding how the formats converge with their characteristics. To analyze the study corpus, a content analysis methodology was used, proposed by Laurence Bardin (1979). In addition to it, the theoretical construction was based on the theories of humor proposals by Henri Bergson (1978) and from bibliographic studies conceptualized as branded content, tie-in and product placement strategies that Porta dos Fundos used in its advertising videos.

Research on the Impact of The Construction of Ecological Civilization Demonstration Zones on Public Green Behavior

From emphasizing environmental protection to the theory of ecological civilization construction, and then to the pilot project of ecological civilization demonstration zones, it marks the gradual transition of China's ecological civilization construction from theoretical construction to practical exploration, and opens up a new realm of "green mountains and clear waters are as valuable as gold and silver". This article explores the impact of the construction of ecological civilization demonstration zones on public green behavior based on 318 micro survey data. The results indicate that: (1) The benchmark regression results show that the establishment of ecological civilization demonstration zones improves environmental quality and helps promote the implementation of green behavior by the public. Social norms in the process of building ecological civilization will constrain the public's practice of green behavior. (2) The mediating effect indicates that the environmental quality and social norms after the establishment of the ecological civilization demonstration zone will enhance the public's sense of identity, thereby promoting the implementation of its green behavior.
