We examined the effects of benefactor intention and beneficiaries' perceived helpfulness and personal responsibility in the context of charitable giving on the gratitude and indebtedness of Chinese college students facing financial hardship. Results of the 2 studies we conducted
using a scenario methodology indicated that personal responsibility moderated the effect of benefactor intention on gratitude via the mediator of perceived helpfulness. Specifically, when beneficiaries felt less responsible for receiving help, perceiving the benefactor's intention as
benevolent rather than utilitarian led them to perceive the donation as being more helpful, thereby evoking greater gratitude. In contrast, when beneficiaries felt more responsible for receiving the donation, their perceived helpfulness and gratitude did not vary, regardless of the nature
of the benefactor's intention. However, there was no significant moderating effect on indebtedness. Implications for higher education and charitable-giving practices are discussed.

In order to grasp the distribution characteristics of the pressure field on the inner wall of the volute casing of an atypical open impeller centrifugal pump, the instantaneous pressure at different operating conditions was experimentally measured under four operating rotational speeds to obtain the distribution characteristics of the average static pressure field in the volute casing of this pump model. The pressure pulsation amplitude and pressure pulsation intensity were also analyzed at different rotational speed cases, and the standard deviation analysis was performed. The results showed that the instantaneous pressure pulsation on the inner wall of the volute casing strongly fluctuates during the pump operating, and the closer to the volute casing outlet, the more intense the pressure pulsation was. After increasing the pump shaft speed, the fluctuation amplitude gradually decreased. The pressure pulsation on the wall of tip clearance is more intense than that on the inner wall of the volute shell. The intensity of the pressure pulsation on the wall of tip clearance decreases with the increase of the rotational speed, and the higher the speed, the less intense the pressure pulsation.

Mangrove forests are important coastal ecosystems and are crucial for the equilibrium of the global carbon cycle. Monitoring and mapping of mangrove forests are essential for framing knowledge-based conservation policies and funding decisions by governments and managers. The purpose of this study was to monitor mangrove forest dynamics in the Quanzhou Bay Estuary Wetland Nature Reserve. To achieve this goal, we compared and analyzed the spectral discrimination among mangrove forests, mudflats and Spartina using multi-seasonal Landsat images from 1990, 1997, 2005, 2010, and 2017. We identified the spatio-temporal distribution of mangrove forests by combining an optimal segmentation scale model based on object-oriented classification, decision tree and visual interpretation. In addition, mangrove forest dynamics were determined by combining the annual land change area, centroid migration and overlay analysis. The results showed that there were advantages in the approaches used in this study for monitoring mangrove forests. From 1990 to 2017, the extent of mangrove forests increased by 2.48 km2, which was mostly converted from mudflats and Spartina. Environmental threats including climate change and sea-level rise, aquaculture development and Spartina invasion, pose potential and direct threats to the existence and expansion of mangrove forests. However, the implementation of reforestation projects and Spartina control plays a substantial role in the expansion of mangrove forests. It has been demonstrated that conservation activities can be beneficial for the restoration and succession of mangrove forests. This study provides an example of how the application of an optimal segmentation scale model and multi-seasonal images to mangrove forest monitoring can facilitate government policies that ensure the effective protection of mangrove forests.

Plan characteristics, cost of RT and EAR were compared.Results: Compared with IMRT, TD and TH showed significant improvement in terms of D98%, D2%, cold spot volume and homogeneity index (HI) of planning target volume (PTV), while achieving worse Dmean and conformity index (CI). The mean dose of oropharynx, thyroid and left salivary, and the maximum dose of right salivary by TD (249.20%, p=0.000; 52.94%, p=0.000; 160.23%, p=0.022; 122.67%, p=0.027), VMAT (15.76%, p=0.000; 23.53%, p=0.000; 34.09%, p=0.000; 31.33%, p=0.000) and TH (250.32%, p=0.000; 58.82%, p=0.000; 120.45%, p=0.020; 117.33%, p=0.032) increased significantly compared to IMRT. VMAT reduced treatment time (p=0.000; 0.000; 0.000) and monitor units (MUs) (p=0.000; 0.000; 0.000) obviously compared with IMRT, TD and TH. The cost of RT for TD and TH increased 150% compared with IMRT and VMAT. IMRT obtained the lowest EAR to oropharynx, thyroid, left and right salivary gland in the four treatment modalities.Conclusion: The results show that both TD and TH can achieve higher conformal target quality while getting worse organs at risk (OARs) sparing and EAR to some organs than IMRT for patients with stage I-II NNKTCL. IMRT delivers the lowest dose to most OARs, VMAT requires the lower cost of RT and shortest delivery time, and TH obtained the optimal target coverage. The results could provide direction for selecting proper RT modalities for different cases.Keywords: nasal natural killer T-Cell lymphoma, excess absolute risk, IMRT, VMAT, TomoHelical
