Molecule-Level Multiscale Design of Nonflammable Gel Polymer Electrolyte to Build Stable SEI/CEI for Lithium Metal Battery.

The risk of flammability is an unavoidable issue for gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs). Usually, flame-retardant solvents are necessary to be used, but most of them would react with anode/cathode easily and cause serious interfacial instability, which is a big challenge for design and application of nonflammable GPEs. Here, a nonflammable GPE (SGPE) is developed by in situ polymerizing trifluoroethyl methacrylate (TFMA) monomers with flame-retardant triethyl phosphate (TEP) solvents and LiTFSI-LiDFOB dual lithium salts. TEP is strongly anchored to PTFMA matrix via polarity interaction between -P = O and -CH2CF3. It reduces free TEP molecules, which obviously mitigates interfacial reactions, and enhances flame-retardant performance of TEP surprisingly. Anchored TEP molecules are also inhibited in solvation of Li+, leading to anion-dominated solvation sheath, which creates inorganic-rich solid electrolyte interface/cathode electrolyte interface layers. Such coordination structure changes Li+ transport from sluggish vehicular to fast structural transport, raising ionic conductivity to 1.03 mS cm-1 and transfer number to 0.41 at 30 °C. The Li|SGPE|Li cell presents highly reversible Li stripping/plating performance for over 1000 h at 0.1 mA cm-2, and 4.2 V LiCoO2|SGPE|Li battery delivers high average specific capacity > 120 mAh g-1 over 200 cycles. This study paves a new way to make nonflammable GPE that is compatible with Li metal anode.

Heteroatom-Doped Defects Anchoring Nano-Pt for High-Stability and Low-Humidity Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell.

To meet the ever-increasing demand of proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), it is necessary to carry out structure optimization for low-cost and high-stability oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts. Herein, a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF)-derived carbon material with a mass of heteroatoms and defects is developed and serves as advanced support for nano-Pt-based ORR catalysts. This unique structure enhances the interaction between nano-Pt and support, leading to higher ORR intrinsic activity. During fuel cell applications, it demonstrates impressive water-retaining capacity and electrochemical stability. Under H2-O2 supply without cathode humidification, this catalyst achieves high mass activity of 0.475 A mgPt -1, with only 7.4% attenuation in maximum power density after 20 000 cycles of accelerated durability test, highlighting its remarkable potential for fuel cell applications. Physicochemical characterization and theoretical simulation reveal the crucial anchoring effect of heteroatom-doped defects to nano-Pt, providing valuable insights for further ORR catalyst design and PEMFC applications.

The Anchoring Effect in Study Time Allocation: Labor-in-Vain versus Labor-and-Gain.

How to allocate study time is an important decision-making problem learners face. Research on this problem can help improve the learning performance of learners and provide guidance for teaching activities. This research aimed to explore the potential of anchors (prior information that may influence individual decision-making and judgment under uncertainty) as clues for study time allocation and examine the effectiveness of study time allocation under the influence of anchors. Sixty-two Chinese university students (Mage = 21.21, SD = 1.74; 44 females) studied 20 word pairs under self-paced learning instructions. These instructions either set a high anchor (i.e., the typical participant spent 15 s learning each pair) or a low anchor (i.e., the typical participant spent 5 s learning each pair) for study time. After a brief distraction phase, participants took a cued recall test. The results showed that the higher the anchor value, the longer the corresponding study time, and the longer the study time, the better the memory performance. These results reveal that there is both an anchoring effect and a labor-and-gain effect in self-paced study time allocation. This study extends the range of observable anchoring effects and provides important information on allocating study time effectively.

Who Will Be More Egocentric? Age Differences in the Impact of Retrospective Self-Experience on Interpersonal Emotion Intensity Judgment.

This study investigates whether the retrospective self-experience of older adults affects and biases interpersonal emotion judgment more than that of younger adults by adopting the paradigm of the self-generated anchoring effect. Participants (older adults: n = 63; younger adults: n = 65) were required to retrospectively consider their self-experiences and judge their possible emotion intensity in anchor-generating scenarios (high- or low-anchor scenarios). Subsequently, participants estimated the protagonist's emotion intensity in target scenarios. The age-related interaction effect showed that older adults exhibited a significant self-generated anchoring effect in more emotion categories (four emotions) compared with younger adults (two emotions). After controlling for inhibition or working memory as a covariant, this interaction effect was no longer significant. The results from multilevel regression analysis also indicated the significant effect of self-emotion across all models on participants' judgment of others' emotions. The results indicated that older adults were more affected by retrospective self-experiences, leading to more egocentric judgment, than younger adults. This different influence from the retrospective self-experiences might partially have been caused by the age-related difference in cognitive abilities.

The nature of anchor-biased estimates and its application to the wisdom of crowds.

We propose a method to achieve better wisdom of crowds by utilizing anchoring effects. In this method, people are first asked to make a comparative judgment such as "Is the number of new COVID-19 infections one month later more or less than 10 (or 200,000)?" As in this example, two sufficiently different anchors (e.g., "10" or "200,000") are set in the comparative judgment. After this comparative judgment, people are asked to make their own estimates. These estimates are then aggregated. We hypothesized that the aggregated estimates using this method would be more accurate than those without anchor presentation. To examine the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conducted three studies: a computer simulation and two behavioral experiments (numerical estimation of perceptual stimuli and estimation of new COVID-19 infections by physicians). Through computer simulations, we could identify situations in which the proposed method is effective. Although the proposed method is not always effective (e.g., when a group can make fairly accurate estimations), on average, the proposed method is more likely to achieve better wisdom of crowds. In particular, when a group cannot make accurate estimations (i.e., shows biases such as overestimation or underestimation), the proposed method can achieve better wisdom of crowds. The results of the behavioral experiments were consistent with the computer simulation findings. The proposed method achieved better wisdom of crowds. We discuss new insights into anchoring effects and methods for inducing diverse opinions from group members.

How Information Framing Nudges Acceptance of China's Delayed Retirement Policy: A Moderated Mediation Model of Anchoring Effects and Perceived Fairness.

China's delayed retirement policy will be prudently rolled out at the appropriate time, yet the public's acceptance of this policy is concerning. To address this issue, our endeavor explores the impact of framing and anchoring effects on policy acceptance, aiming to mitigate the populace's resistance to the new policy. We conducted two survey studies on the Chinese population aged 16-65. Achieved through an online survey, Study 1 (N = 225) demonstrated that information framing significantly influences the public's acceptance of the delayed retirement policy. It was found that perceived fairness plays a mediating role between information framing and policy acceptance. Notably, the positive frame had a more pronounced effect on acceptance than its negative counterpart, with the positive presentation being perceived as more fair. Study 2 (N = 383), utilizing a combination of online and offline approaches, revealed that the anchoring effect moderates the relationship between information framing and perceived fairness. The interaction of anchoring and framing effects significantly influences perceived fairness, subsequently promoting public policy acceptance. The interplay between anchoring and framing effects significantly shapes perceived fairness, in turn bolstering the public's receptiveness to policy. These insights offer reasonable communication strategies for the smooth advancement of new policies, further enriching the field of behavioral science.

Chemical Cross-linked Electrode-Electrolyte Interface Boosting the Structural Integrity of High Nickel Cathode Materials.

High nickel cathode material LiNixCoyMn1-x-yO2 (NCM) (x ≥ 0.6) has represented the most critical material in virtue of outstanding specific capacity and low self-discharge. However, the high surface alkalinity and detrimental interfacial stability lead to the parasitic reaction and a series of phase deterioration. Herein, in situ cross-linking binder molecular chains with a 3D network structure to construct a stable and robust electrode-electrolyte interface, which can maintain the structural integrity and restrain side reactions is designed. Simultaneously, the cross-linked polymer can form stable hydrogen bonds with the pristine binder, greatly enhancing the bonding property. More importantly, the functional groups contained in the cross-linked co-polymers can chemically anchor transition metals, effectively preventing the dissolution of transition metals. Theoretical calculations confirm the feasibility and advancement of the anchoring mechanism, driving excellent structural stability and inhibition of the NiO impurity phase. This work provides a practical strategy to realize the high stability of cathode materials.

The impact of initial counselling for patients' decision-making and the accuracy of interdisciplinary neurovascular board evaluation in elective treatment of unruptured intracranial aneurysms - a German single-centre retrospective study.

OBJECTIVE: Interdisciplinary-neurovascular-boards (INVB) are deemed to find the patient's optimum treatment-modality in elective unruptured intracranial aneurysm-repair (EUIAR). If INVB judges risk/success estimation similar for microsurgical/endovascular EUIAR, the choice for either modality is up to the informed patient. However, it is unknown if the patients' decision-making might be biased by the discipline of initial counselling prior to INVB and if INVB's equal risk/success estimation is finally accurate. METHODS: We analysed all our patients with EUIAR after INVB-discussion between 2007 and 2017 and identified those patients where INVB-recommendation estimated similar risk/success rates for both treatment-modalities. We investigated the procedural/outcome parameters and determined if the mode of initial counselling prior to INVB influenced the patients' choice of EUIAR and if INVB's equal risk/success estimation was accurate. RESULTS: Within altogether 572 patients with EUIAR during our study period, we identified 99 patients (agemean:58 yrs; m:f=1:2) in whom pre-treatment INVB-discussion estimated risk/success rates for both modalities of EUIAR to be similar. Prior to INVB-discussion, 80 of the 99 patients had been initially counselled in the neurosurgical discipline and 19 patients in the endovascular discipline. The final patients' decision rates for surgical vs. endovascular EUIAR (after secondary consultation of each patient in both disciplines after INVB-discussion) were 67% vs. 33% in the first and 58% vs. 42% in the latter group (no significant difference: p = 0.345). Uni- and multivariate analysis did not show any hints for a bias in patients' decision-making caused by the discipline of initial counselling prior to INVB/secondary bilateral consultations. Clinical and procedural outcome at last follow-up (median:18mos) did not differ between those 66 patients that eventually decided for microsurgical and those 33 patients that eventually decided for endovascular EUIAR, underlining the high accuracy of INVB's pre-treatment risk/success estimations. CONCLUSION: Only in a small number of patients, INVB estimates both disciplines to be of equal value for EUIAR which proves to be highly accurate at long-term outcome measures. Initial contact to one or the other neurovascular discipline does not appear to play a significant role in the final patient's decision-making process.

Age similarities in the anchoring effect in emotion intensity judgment.

BACKGROUND: The anchoring effect refers to the tendency that an individual's numerical judgment would assimilate to an anchor (a numerical value) that appears before that judgment. This study investigated whether the anchoring effect exists in the emotion judgment of younger and older adults and observed the age-related characteristics. This could not only broaden the explanation of the anchoring effect but also link this classic judgment bias with daily emotion judgment to refresh our understanding of older adults' ability in emotional perspective taking. METHOD: Participants (older adults: n = 64, age range: 60-74, 27 males; younger adults: n = 68, age range: 18-34, 34 males) read a brief emotional story and compared the protagonist's emotion intensity to a given numerical anchor (lower or higher than the anchor) and then estimated the protagonist's possible emotion intensity in that story. The task was divided into two cases according to anchor relevance (anchors are relevant or irrelevant relative to the judgment target). RESULTS: The results showed that the estimates were higher under high-anchor than low-anchor conditions, suggesting the robust anchoring effect. Further, the anchoring effect was greater for anchor-relevant than anchor-irrelevant tasks and for negative rather than positive emotions. No age differences were found. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: The results indicated that the anchoring effect is robust and stable for younger and older adults, even though the anchor information seemed irrelevant. Finally, perceiving others' negative emotions is a crucial but rather difficult aspect of empathy, which could be a challenge and requires more caution for accurate interpretation.

In Situ Polymerization Anchoring Effect Enhancing the Structural Stability and Electrochemical Performance of the LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 Cathode Material.

LiNixCoyMn1-x-yO2 (NCM) is identified as the most classical cathode material on account of its outstanding specific capacity, moderate price, and high safety. However, the surface stability of the high nickel cathode material is poor, which is extremely sensitive to air. Herein, we discover that the electron donor functional groups of organic polymers can form a stable coordination anchoring effect with nickel atoms in the cathode material that can provide an empty orbit through electron transfer, which not only enhances the mutual interface stability between the polymer coating and NCM but also greatly inhibits the decomposition of metal ions in the deintercalation/intercalation process. Density functional theory calculations and first principles reveal that there are coordination bonds and charge transfers between poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) and NCM. Consequently, the modified material displayed excellent cyclic stability, with a capacity retention of 91.93% at 1 C after 100 cycles and a rate property of 143.8 mA h g-1 at 5 C. Moreover, structural analysis indicated that the enhanced cycling stability resulted from the suppression of irreversible phase transitions of PEDOT-coated NCM. This unique mechanism provides a thought for organic coating and surface modification of NCM materials.

Is collective nest site selection in ants influenced by the anchoring effect?

Evolutionary theory predicts that animals make decisions that maximize fitness. If so, they are expected to adhere to principles of rational choice, which a decision-maker must follow to reliably maximize net benefit. For example, evaluation of an option should not be influenced by the quality of other unchosen options. However, humans and other animals are known to evaluate a mediocre option more favorably after encountering poor options than after encountering no options, a phenomenon known as the 'anchoring effect'. Rationality is also expected in the consensus decisions of animal societies, but the anchoring effect has not previously been tested in that context. Here we show that colonies of the rock ant, Temnothorax rugatulus, demonstrate the anchoring effect during nest site selection - colonies moved more readily from a mediocre nest to a good nest when exposed to poor nests than when exposed to mediocre nests. This effect depended on both current conditions and past experience; movement probability was affected only when colonies were exposed to surrounding nests before and during the emigration. The effect was small, reaching statistical significance in only one of two experimental replicates. We discuss possible mechanisms and ultimate explanations for why colonies show this seemingly suboptimal behavior.

Inlaying Bismuth Nanoparticles on Graphene Nanosheets by Chemical Bond for Ultralong-Lifespan Aqueous Sodium Storage.

Rechargeable aqueous sodium ion batteries (ASIBs) are rising as an important alternative to lithium ion batteries, owing to their safety and low cost. Metal anodes show a high theoretical capacity and nonselective hydrated ion insertion for ASIBs, yet their large volume expansion and sluggish reaction kinetics resulted in poor electrochemical stability. Herein, we demonstrate an electrode cyclability enhancement mechanism by inlaying bismuth (Bi) nanoparticles on graphene nanosheets through chemical bond, which is achieved by a unique laser induced compounding method. This anchored metal-graphene heterostructure can effectively mitigate volume variation, and accelerate the kinetic capability as the active Bi can be exposed to the electrolyte. Our method can achieve a reversible capacity of 122 mAh g-1 at a large current density of 4 A g-1 for over 9500 cycles. This finding offers a desirable structural design of other metal anodes for aqueous energy storage systems.

Mesoporous Ti4O7 Spheres with Enhanced Zinc-Anchoring Effect for High-Performance Zinc-Nickel Batteries.

Zinc-nickel batteries are promising competitors for next-generation power supply due to their benefits of high safety, high working voltage, and attractive rate performance. However, their practical applications are plagued by their poor cycling performance, stemming from uneven redistribution of zinc during cycling that results in dendrite formation and shape changes of the electrode. In this work, mesoporous Ti4O7 microspheres are prepared and are employed as additives of a zinc anode. Notably, the presence of mesopores provides abundant chemisorption sites for Zn(OH)42- ions, inhibiting severe zinc redistribution in the electrode. Moreover, due to the good electrical conductivity and mesopores that serve as ion diffusion channels, the reaction reactivity and reversibility of the zinc electrode are greatly facilitated. As a result, the fabricated zinc-nickel battery with mesoporous Ti4O7 additives (ms-Ti4O7) exhibits an enhanced discharge capacity and a significantly prolonged cycling life. Even at a current of 10 A (∼138 mA cm-2), the ms-Ti4O7-modified anode demonstrates stable operation for longer than 718 h (700 cycles) with a discharge voltage of 1.2 V, which is much longer than those of a ZnO anode (192 h, 117 cycles) and a Ti4O7-particle (p-Ti4O7)-modified battery (590 h, 443 cycles). Furthermore, due to the anchoring effect for Zn(OH)42- and the uniform electric field, the effect of mesoporous Ti4O7 on inhibiting dendrite formation and shape change of the zinc electrode is highlighted.

Stable Ultrathin Ag Electrodes by Tailoring the Surface of Plastic Substrates for Flexible Organic Light-Emitting Devices.

Flexible transparent metal electrodes (FTMEs) have significant application potentials in the fields of flexible optoelectronic devices due to their outstanding optical transmittance and electrical conductivity. However, obtaining excellent optoelectrical properties and mechanical flexibility of FTMEs is challenging because ultrathin metal layers usually follow an island growth mode. In this paper, flexible transparent ultrathin Ag electrodes with high mechanical stability and good optoelectrical properties were exploited by tailoring the surface properties of plastic substrates with ultraviolet-ozone (UVO) treatment for regulating the nucleation and growth kinetics of Ag films. The composite transparent electrodes of Ag (9 nm)/MoO3 (20 nm) fabricated on the UVO-treated polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates possess a low sheet resistance of ∼7.9 Ω/sq, a high optical transmittance of ∼87.2% at 550 nm, a long-period environmental stability of 30 days (∼65 °C, ∼80% humidity), and excellent mechanical flexibility of 100,000 bending cycles at a bending radius of 1.5 mm. These properties are derived from the surface treatment of PET substrates by UVO, which increases substrate surface energy and produces chemical nucleation sites of the phenolic hydroxyl groups. The phenolic hydroxyl groups generated on the PET surface not only provided efficient nucleation sites for subsequent Ag film growth but also formed C-O-Ag bonds between the substrate surface and the Ag layer, which act as "anchor chains" to fix firmly the Ag atoms on the substrate surface. As a universal applicability strategy, the composite electrodes on the UVO-treated polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) and norland optical adhesive 63 (NOA63) substrates also possess excellent optoelectrical properties and mechanical flexibility. Based on the ultrathin Ag composite electrodes, the flexible white organic light-emitting devices with PET, PEN, and NOA63 as substrates present the maximum current efficiencies of 53.0, 77.0, and 65.2 cd/A, respectively.

Anchoring effect induces false memories.

While many studies have highlighted the existence of the anchoring effect in a wide variety of domains, no study to date has investigated its impact on memory. The present study aimed to test whether an irrelevant numerical anchor not only influences an estimate but also modifies the memory of the associated event. Two experiments (total N = 259) were conducted, combining the methodology used by Loftus and Palmer (Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 13, 585-589, 1974) and a classic anchoring paradigm. The results show that an irrelevant numerical anchor can modify the estimate of a car's speed and produce false memories of the event. We discuss the link between the processes underlying the anchoring effect and the false memory phenomenon.

Monolayer MSi2P4 (M = V, Nb, and Ta) as Highly Efficient Sulfur Host Materials for Lithium-Sulfur Batteries.

Despite the high capacity and low cost of lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries, their commercialization is greatly blocked by multiple bottlenecks including the shuttle effect of lithium polysulfides (LiPSs), poor conductivity of sulfur, and sluggish reaction kinetics. Herein, we propose novel two-dimensional MSi2P4 (M = V, Nb, and Ta) monolayers as promising sulfur hosts to improve the Li-S battery performance. Our calculations show that MSi2P4 monolayers offer moderate binding strengths to the polysulfides, which are expected to effectively inhibit the LiPS shuttling and dissolution. Moreover, the conductive properties of the MSi2P4 systems are well maintained after LiPS adsorption, eliminating the insulating nature of sulfur species. Remarkably, MSi2P4 monolayers exhibit superior electrocatalytic activity for the sulfur reduction reaction and the Li2S decomposition reaction, which considerably lowers the energy barriers of LiPS conversions during discharge and charge, thus ensuring the fast redox kinetics and high sulfur utilization of Li-S batteries. This study pioneers the application of MSi2P4 monolayers as highly efficient sulfur host materials for Li-S batteries and affords insights for further development of advanced Li-S batteries.

Bounded Rationality and Heuristics: Do We Only Need to Score in Order to Win Individual Awards in Basketball?

In the game of basketball game-related statistics are utilised to help decision makers to evaluate players' achievements. Previous research showed that in the case of individual awards, points are preferred over other indicators of effectiveness. Based on recent studies and following Simon's bounded rationality, in our interpretation, decision-makers decide on nominations at the post-grant level according to points scoring which is the easiest aspect to assess and the most familiar to them. In this context we also hypothesise that youth all-star players have better overall performance than their not selected teammates. To test our hypotheses we selected all of the youth awarded male players and their teammates from 2004 to 2019. In our sample, we examined n = 3198 player statistics. Two groups were created with nominated and not selected players. We used a two-sample t-test, and correlation matrix to examine the relationship between the variables (p < 0.001). We found that scoring is the most important selection criteria for decision-makers (r = 0.605; p = 0.000) and the selected players had significantly better individual statistics. An important finding of our study is that although efficiency (EFF) is used to measure the players' contribution to the game, it is not the primary selection factor and should therefore be redefined.

An Experimental Study on Anchoring Effect of Consumers' Price Judgment Based on Consumers' Experiencing Scenes.

Consumers are prone to cognitive biases in decision-making due to the impact of time restrictions, specific environment, and project inducements in the process of experience. Compared with traditional marketing scenarios, it is easy to bias decision makers due to the existence of anchor information. Research on anchoring effect focuses on psychology, economics, law, and medicine instead of the price judgment of consumers. This article uses experimental research to explore the existence and influencing factors of anchoring effect when consumers judge and estimate the price of a product in experiencing scenes. In this article, the hypothesis is that anchoring effect exists and is influenced by factors including anchor value, gender, emotion, personality, knowledge and skill, time pressure, early warning indication, cognitive need, and self-confidence level under external and internal anchor conditions. Subjects judged and estimated different prices after product experience through the design of different decision-making scenarios of external (high anchors and low anchors) and internal anchors, and finally, the anchoring index (AI) and the mean skew index were used to calculate the anchoring effect. The experimental results showed that consumers were affected by anchoring effect when making price judgment in experiencing scenes. In addition to the factors of time pressure and self-confidence level, gender, personality, knowledge, and skill all had a significant influence on anchoring effect under external anchor conditions. Finally, this article provides advice for enterprise marketing planners including setting reasonable anchor values, highlighting the design of experiencing scenes, and developing differentiation strategies.

Clinical outcomes of vinorelbine loading CalliSpheres beads in the treatment of previously treated advanced lung cancer with progressive refractory obstructive atelectasis.

Background: Drug-eluting beads bronchial arterial chemoembolization (DEB-BACE) has been used in the treatment of locally advanced lung cancer and has the potential to improve outcomes and reduce recurrence. However, DEB-BACE shows a poor therapeutic effect in advanced lung cancer after failure of multiple therapies. This study assessed the effect of DEB-BACE in the treatment of progressive lung cancer with refractory obstructive atelectasis. Methods: Progressive advanced lung cancer patients with refractory obstructive atelectasis were voluntarily enrolled in this study after failure of multiple conventional therapies. Baseline information, DEB-BACE treatment process, and changes in clinical symptoms were recorded. The primary endpoints were the objective response rate (ORR) and improvement rate of dyspnea. The secondary endpoints were time-to-progression (TTP), overall survival (OS), and rate of pulmonary re-expansion. Treatment-related adverse events and serious adverse events were analyzed to assess the safety of DEB-BACE. The Cox regression model was performed to analyze the possible factors impacting prognosis of DEB-BACE. Results: DEB-BACE was successfully performed with CalliSpheres beads loaded with vinorelbine in the 20 enrolled patients. ORR and disease control rate were 80% and 85%, respectively, at the first follow-up (43.4 ± 15.26 days). The improvement rate of dyspnea was 85% and 80% at 1 week and 1 month (p < 0.0001, p < 0.0001), respectively. TTP was 41.25 ± 14.43 days and 89.55 ± 61.7 days before and after DEB-BACE, respectively; DEB-BACE delayed the progression of advanced lung cancer (p < 0.0001). OS was 238.03 ± 33.74 days (95% confidence interval: 171.9-304.16). The rate of pulmonary re-expansion was 80% at the first follow-up. The reasons for poor prognosis were tumor necrosis, longer disease duration, and pulmonary atelectasis duration (p = 0.012, p = 0.038, p = 0.029). Massive hemoptysis was observed in two cases, and one patient died of asphyxia caused by hemoptysis. Moderate hemoptysis occurred in one case. All three adverse events were considered as the result of the tumor cavity after DEB-BACE. Conclusion: DEB-BACE loaded with vinorelbine is a feasible option for progressive advanced lung cancer with obstructive atelectasis after failure of other treatments.

What Influences People's Tradeoff Decisions Between CO2 Emissions and Travel Time? An Experiment With Anchors and Normative Messages.

One of the today's greatest challenges is to adjust our behavior so that we can avoid a major climate disaster. To do so, we must make sacrifices for the sake of the environment. The study reported here investigates how anchors (extrinsic motivational-free information) and normative messages (extrinsic motivational information) influence people's tradeoffs between travel time and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in the context of car travel and whether any interactions with environmental concern (an intrinsic motivational factor) can be observed. In this study, people received either a CO2, health or no normative message together with either a high anchor, a low anchor, or no anchor. People that received both a high anchor and a CO2 emission normative message were willing to travel for a longer time than those that only received a high anchor. If a low anchor was presented, no differences in willingness to travel for a longer time were found between the three different conditions of normative message groups, i.e., CO2 normative message, health normative message, or no normative message. People with higher concern for the environment were found to be willing to travel for a longer time than those with lower concern for the environment. Further, this effect was strongest when a high anchor was presented. These results suggest that anchors and normative messages are among the many factors that can influence people's tradeoffs between CO2 emission and travel time, and that various factors may have to be combined to increase their influence over pro-environmental behavior and decisions.
