Investigation on Media Literacy of China Government Officials: Under the View of Public Opinion Guidance

Yang, Ting,Seo, Sangho The Korea Contents Association 2018 International Journal of Contents Vol.14 No.4

China media environment has drastically changed leading to the an inevitable change of public opinion ecology. Empirical studies have focused less on public opinion guidance, which forms an important component of the government officials' media literacy. This study applied quantitative method in the investigation of media literacy in China. Ideally, media literacy is measured from media cognition, media contact, media usage under the view of public opinion guidance. The findings reveal that the existing problem on 1) incorrect media cognition and public opinion guidance; 2) insufficient contact of personal social media 3) improper tendencies in the use of media to guide the public opinion, especially, on confidential information. Consequently, in order to improve media literacy in China government officials, enhancement of their basic knowledge on news diffusion and public opinion is necessary. Secondly, to effectively deal with "agenda settings", it is important for the government to consider the provision of valuable information and platforms to effectively spread information. So they need to learn how to personally and officially use social media platforms such as Weiboa and Wechat. This ensures they have maximized their potential to acquire valuable information and spread them on valuable platforms. Thirdly, government officials should be able to analyze and understand public opinion trends for official and personal use. Finally, they should understand the development of public opinion and the how online public opinion laws are formed and the target group.

Design and estimation of a sensing attitude algorithm for AUV self-rescue system

Yang, Yi-Ting,Shen, Sheng-Chih Techno-Press 2017 Ocean systems engineering Vol.7 No.2

This research is based on the concept of safety airbag to design a self-rescue system for the autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) using micro inertial sensing module. To reduce the possibility of losing the underwater vehicle and the difficulty of searching and rescuing, when the AUV self-rescue system (ASRS) detects that the AUV is crashing or encountering a serious collision, it can pump carbon dioxide into the airbag immediately to make the vehicle surface. ASRS consists of 10-DOF sensing module, sensing attitude algorithm and air-pumping mechanism. The attitude sensing modules are a nine-axis micro-inertial sensor and a barometer. The sensing attitude algorithm is designed to estimate failure attitude of AUV properly using sensor calibration and extended Kalman filter (SCEKF), feature extraction and backpropagation network (BPN) classify. SCEKF is proposed to be used subsequently to calibrate and fuse the data from the micro-inertial sensors. Feature extraction and BPN training algorithms for classification are used to determine the activity malfunction of AUV. When the accident of AUV occurred, the ASRS will immediately be initiated; the airbag is soon filled, and the AUV will surface due to the buoyancy. In the future, ASRS will be developed successfully to solve the problems such as the high losing rate and the high difficulty of the rescuing mission of AUV.

Currently, the systems for culturing buffalo spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) in vitro are varied, and their effects are still inconclusive. In this study, we compared the effects of culture systems with undefined (foetal bovine serum) and defined (KnockOut Serum Replacement) materials on the in vitro culture of buffalo SSC-like cells. Significantly more DDX4- and UCHL1-positive cells (cultured for 2 days at passage 2) were observed in the defined materials culture system than in the undefined materials system (p < 0.01), and these cells were maintained for a longer period than those in the culture system with undefined materials (10 days vs. 6 days). Furthermore, NANOS2 (p < 0.05), DDX4 (p < 0.01) and UCHL1 (p < 0.05) were expressed at significantly higher levels in the culture system with defined materials than in that with undefined materials. Induction with retinoic acid was used to verify that the cultured cells maintained SSC characteristics, revealing an SCP3+ subset in the cells cultured in the defined materials system. The expression levels of Stra8 (p < 0.05) and Rec8 (p < 0.01) were significantly increased, and the expression levels of ZBTB16 (p < 0.01) and DDX4 (p < 0.05) were significantly decreased. These findings provided a clearer research platform for exploring the mechanism of buffalo SSCs in vitro.

Yang Ting(양팅),Hwang, Yong Suk(황용석) 건국대학교 글로컬문화전략연구소 2020 문화콘텐츠연구 Vol.0 No.18

Dornyei의 제2언어 동기화 시스템(L2MSS)에 따르면 제2언어의 획득은 학습 과정 일뿐만 아니라 심리적 과정이며 학습자의 자기 정체성과 관련이 있다는 것을 보여준다. 이 연구는 제2언어 동기화 시스템에 기초하여, 재중 유학생들의 소셜 미디어 능력이 그들의 중국어 학습 동기에 미치는 영향을 조사했다(N = 178). 분석결과, 유학생들의 소셜 미디어 교육은 중국어 학습 동기를 나타내는 중요한 지표 중 하나로 확인되었다. 소셜 미디어 리터러시의 향상은 L2MSS의 메커니즘을 통해 만다린 학습 동기를 향상시킬 수 있다는 것이 증명되었다. 제2언어 동기화 시스템에 영향을 미치는 유의미한 변수로 소셜 미디어 리터러시 수준(M = 2.97, SD = .63), L2MSS 수준(M = 3.68, SD = .63) 및 중국어 학습 동기 부여 수준(M = 3.88, SD = .70)이 확인되었다. 그리고 제2언어 동기화 시스템을 통해 소셜 미디어 리터러시가 중국어 만다린 학습 동기에 미치는 영향을 확인했다(p < 0.05). 또한 Dornyei의 제2언어 동기화 시스템(L2MSS)에 따르면 제2언어 획득이 학습 과정 일뿐만 아니라 심리적 과정이며 학습자의 자기 정체성과 관련되어 있음을 보여준다. 제2언어 동기화 시스템(L2MSS)상태가 양호하면보다 적극적인 학습 태도, 동기 부여 행동 및 학습 전략으로 이어질 수 있다. 제2언어 동기화 시스템(L2MSS) 만중국어 학습 동기 부여에 대한 강력한 설명 능력을 가지고 있습니다(R² = .472, p < 0.01). 따라서 유학생의 중국어 학습 동기를 향상시키기 위해서는 소셜 미디어 리터러시가 중요한 척도이다. 또한 유학생들이 소셜 미디어 능력, 특히 미디어 접촉 능력 (M = 2.46, SD = .822)을 개발하는 것이 중요하다. Dornyei’s second language motivational self-system (L2MSS) illustrates second language acquisition is not only a learning process, but also a psychological one and is associated with learners’ self-identity. Basing on theory of the second language motivational self system (L2MSS) and media literacy, the present study investigated Chinese international students’ (N=178) Chinese social media literacy level (M=2.97, SD=.63), second language motivational self system (L2MSS) level (M=3.68, SD=.63) and Mandarin-learning motivation level (M=3.88, SD=.70). This study also examined the impact of international students’ social media literacy on their mandarin learning motivation. H¹ (Social media literacy is one indicator of international students’ Mandarin learning motivation), H² (Social media literacy of international students is one indicator of theirsecond languagemotivational self-system) and H³ (International students’second languagemotivational self-systemlevel is one indicator of their Mandarin learning motivation) were proposed and tested. All three hypothesis were accepted via regression analysis. Thus, the present study 1) confirmed the impact of social media literacy on Mandarin learning motivation via the mechanism of second language motivational self-system (L2MSS) (p < 0.05); 2) expanded explanatory power of second language motivational self system (L2MSS) to Mandarin learning.

Construction of DOPA-SAM multilayers with corrosion resistance via controlled molecular self-assembly

Ting Chen,Ming Yang,Hui Yang,Ruining Wang,Shujuan Wang,Hang Zhang,Xiaoyu Zhang,Zhijuan Zhao,Jinben Wang 한국공업화학회 2019 Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Vol.69 No.-

Although nano “green” coatings with excellent corrosion resistance have attracted great attention, the inhibition efficiency is still limited due to the lack of knowledge about the correlation between molecular structure and anticorrosion performance. Here, we fabricated a series of 3,4-dihydroxy-l-phenylalanine adlayers on self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) with varying end groups. We found that both NH2 and CF3SAMs were more conducive to the adsorption of DOPA and a flat adsorption conformation was preferentially adopted, with the plane of the phenylene ring parallel to the surface via cation-π interactions or hydrophobic interactions, leading to a compact and dense adlayer. Such DOPA-SAM multilayers can effectively protect the substrate from corrosion by suppressing the diffusion of aggressive water and acid molecules as well as the electrodissolution of metals. The lowest corrosion current of adlayers reaches 6.96 μA cm−2 which is much lower than that of bare substrate and other anticorrosion surfaces reported previously. The results provide guidance on the design of green anticorrosion materials via selecting SAMs that bridge organic and metal interface.

Teenagers’ Social Media Use and Civic Engagement : Focused on Weibo in China

Ting Yang,Sangho Seo 한국정치커뮤니케이션학회 2016 정치커뮤니케이션 연구 Vol.0 No.43

2009년도에 서비스가 시작된 이래 웨이보는 중국에서 가장 대중적인 소셜 미디어로 급성장했으며, 특히 중요한 사회적 이슈에 대해 이용자가 정보를 습득하고 자유롭게 의견을 개진하는 소통의 장으로 발전 하여 왔다. 특히 최근 들어 웨이보 이용자의 상당수가 10대 청소년이라고 할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구는 웨이보 이용을 통한 중국 청소년의 시민 참여를 알아보고, 아울러 웨이보 이용이 시민참여의 태도 및 행동에 미치는 영향에 대해 조사하였다. 연구결과에 따르면 중국 청소년의 웨이보 이용은 아직 활발히 이루어지지 않고 있으며, 이용 목적도 주로 정보 검색에 머무르는 것으로 나타났다. 아울러, 웨이보를 통한 시민참여에 있어서 행동적 참여 수준은 인지적 참여 수준보다 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 이용자가 가장 관심을 갖는 정보의 경향이 시민 참여인식에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과는 앞으로 추가적인 이용교육이 이루어진다면 웨이보가 청소년의 시민 참여를 활성화 시키는 효율적인 수단이 될 수 있음을 암시한다고 볼 수 있다. Since its launch in 2009, Weibo has arisen as the most popular social networking site in China. Users can acquire information on social issues and express their opinions through posting, forwarding and commenting. Among the netizens, teenagers are an important group. Thus, this study aims to examine Chinese teenagers' Weibo usage pattern and their civic participation in terms of attitudes and behaviors. According to results, Weibo usage pattern of Chinese teenagers is not active and they mainly use Weibo for searching information. In addition, the level of behavioral participation is lower than the level of cognitive participation. Moreover, the tendency of information which users most concern affects the level of civic engagement cognition. The result of this study implies that Weibo can become a tool and platform for them to enforce civic engagement if the usage can be well guided.

Effects of spin-casting speed on solar cell performances and corresponding films morphology and optical properties using 2D perovskite of PEA2MA2Pb3I10

Yang Zhang,Zeyang Wang,Ting Liu,Bo Yang,Shu Hu,Heng Li,ChuanXiang Sheng 대한금속·재료학회 2022 ELECTRONIC MATERIALS LETTERS Vol.18 No.3

On hot substrates with a temperature of 100 °C, the qualities of two-dimensional perovskite PEA2MA2Pb3I10(PEA = phenethylammonium,MA = methylammonium) films have been explored which are constructed with different spin-casting speeds. These films are performed at the speed of 1000, 2000, 4000, and 6000 revolution per minute (RPM). Below 4000 r, a higherRPM results in higher crystalline quality with more uniform morphology. Correspondingly, 4000 r devices show better performanceon average (4.3% power conversion efficiency) and less hysteresis in the J-V curve than 1000 r (3.6%) and 2000 rdevices (3.4%). However, for devices that were fabricated at 6000 r, inferior performance (2.8% on average) may not bepredicted simply by the morphology characterization or optical measurement results at room temperature; instead, carriertrapping states can occur that result in thermally activated PL below 200 K with an activation energy of 18 meV, which donot occur in the 1000 r, 2000 r, and 4000 r films. Our results suggest that for evaluating 2D perovskite films prior to fabricatingoptimal devices, multiple morphology characterizations and optical measurements, including of low-temperature PL,will be helpful.
