Evidence suggests that college students' future-related feelings and cognition may influence their trust in government. This study aims to explore whether the association between college students' future time perspective and trust in government is mediated through the consideration of future consequences (CFC). A cross-sectional survey was used to collect data from 1,617 college students (86.6% women) aged 17 to 31 years in China via an online questionnaire. The results showed that the students' positive, negative and confused future orientation was positively associated with their trust in government. The consideration of far- future consequences positively mediated the relationship between a positive future orientation and trust in government. These findings support the possibility to evaluate college students' government trust level according to their future orientation, which will improve their positive political participation., Author(s): Kuiyun Zhi [sup.1] , Jian Yang [sup.1] [sup.2] , Si Chen [sup.3] , Yongjin Chen [sup.1] , Niyazi Akebaijiang [sup.4] , Meimei Liu [sup.1] , Lingxiang Xia [sup.5] Author [...]

This article explores the use of an active disturbance rejection predictive control strategy for local trajectory planning of unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs). The strategy incorporates an extended state observer and a nonlinear feedback control law to handle internal error and environment disturbance. Nonlinear model predictive control is used to address motion planning and nonholonomic constraints. The proposed algorithm improves the accuracy and efficiency of UGV trajectory planning and control. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the strategy, and future research will focus on further improvements and practical implementation. [Extracted from the article]

Self-compassion, as a personal psychological resource, has been proved to play an important role in coping with suffering. Based on self-determination theory, the present study attempts to establish that self-compassion can promote trust, and the sense of interpersonal responsibility mediates this relationship. Study 1 used cross-sectional data in a community sample of 322 adults to reveal that self-compassion was positively related to trust, and the mediating effects of the sense of interpersonal responsibility were significant. Study 2 used the latent cross-lagged panel model among 1304 college students at three-time points set at six-month intervals to replicate the results and proved the longitudinal mediating effects across groups. Finally, a casual chain design was used to test the mediation effect in Studies 3 and 4. The results indicated that self-compassion induced by writing task resulted in a sense of responsibility in Study 3 (N = 145), and the manipulated sense of responsibility promoted both trust behaviors and beliefs in Study 4 (N = 125). Through four studies, this study highlights a novel but unexpected viewpoint that treating oneself in a self-compassionate way can not only help individuals cope with various challenges but also motivate them to obtain interpersonal benefits. These findings can help motivate community workers and mental health researchers to increase social capital by focusing on self-compassion and interpersonal responsibility. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The main ventilator room of coal mine is remote and difficultly covered by wired network, so as to cause main ventilator monitoring system falling into information island. For above problem, a design scheme of remote wireless monitoring system for coal mine main ventilator based on mobile platform was put forward. The system uses a GPRS DTU to communicate with PLC for collecting field monitoring data, and the data is uploaded to a cloud data sever through GPRS network. On the other hand, mobile client based on Android system accesses the cloud data sever by use of socket communication mode through 3G, 4G or WiFi wireless network, so that users can remotely monitor operation status of coal mine main ventilator anytime and anywhere. The test results verify feasibility of the system.
