Motivational,emotional, and behavioral correlates of fear of missing out

Social media utilities have made it easier than ever to know about the range of online or offline social activities one could be engaging. On the upside, these social resources provide a multitude of opportunities for interaction; on the downside, they often broadcast more options than can be pursued, given practical restrictions and limited time. This dual nature of social media has driven popular interest in the concept of Fear of Missing Out – popularly referred to as FoMO. Defined as a pervasive apprehension that others might be having rewarding experiences from which one is absent, FoMO is characterized by the desire to stay continually connected with what others are doing. The present research presents three studies conducted to advance an empirically based understanding of the fear of missing out phenomenon. The first study collected a diverse international sample of participants in order to create a robust individual differences measure of FoMO, the Fear of Missing Out scale (FoMOs); this study is the first to operationalize the construct. Study 2 recruited a nationally representative cohort to investigate how demographic, motivational and well-being factors relate to FoMO. Study 3 examined the behavioral and emotional correlates of fear of missing out in a sample of young adults. Implications of the FoMOs measure and for the future study of FoMO are discussed.

Windowed linear canonical transform and its applications

In this paper, we generalize the windowed Fourier transform to the windowed linear canonical transform by substituting the Fourier transform kernel with the linear canonical transform kernel in the windowed Fourier transform definition. It offers local contents, enjoys high resolution, and eliminates cross terms. Some useful properties of the windowed linear canonical transform are derived. Those include covariance property, orthogonality property and inversion formulas. As applications analogues of the Poisson summation formula, sampling formulas and series expansions are given.     

Solidification microstructure characteristics of Ti–44Al–4Nb–2Cr–0.1B alloy under various cooling rates during mushy zone

Beta-solidifying TiAl alloy has great potential in the field of aero-industry as a cast alloy.In the present work,the influence of cooling rate during mushy zone on solidification behavior of Ti-44Al-4Nb-2Cr-0.1B alloy was investigated.A vacuum induction heating device combining with temperature control system was used.The Ti-44Al-4Nb-2Cr-0.1B alloy solidified from superheated was melted to β phase with the cooling rates of 10,50,100,200,400 and 700 K·min~(-1),respectively.Results show that with the increase in cooling rate from 10 to 700 K·min~(-1),the colony size of α_2/γ lamella decreases from 1513 to48 urn and the solidification segregation significantly decreases.Also the content of residual B2 phase within α_2/γlamellar colony decreases with the increase in cooling rate.In addition,the alloy in local interdendritic regions would solidify in a hypo-peritectic way,which can be attributed to the solute redistribution and enrichment of Al element in solidification.     

Soldering of Zr-based bulk metallic glass and copper by Au-12Ge eutectic alloy

Zr-based bulk metallic glass and copper with different surface roughness were soldered using low temperature eutectic Au-12 Ge(wt%) solder on a thermomechanical simulator. The cross-sectional microstructures of the brazed joints were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and transmission electron microscope(TEM) in detail, and the compositional distribution along the interface was analyzed by energy-dispersive spectrometer(EDS). Results show that the surface roughness of base metals plays an important role in the quality of the brazed joint because the surface roughness can enlarge the effective contact area, which can improve the brazing surface quality between two materials. A moderate roughness of treated Zr-based metallic glass of 18 μm is shown to be the best for the soldering, while the surface roughness has a weak effect on the soldering behavior of Au-12 Ge solder on copper. After soldering, long-range diffusion of atoms occurs between the base metal and solder, and five distinct regions are formed at the joint region.

Mechanical properties and miscibility of polyethersulfone/phenoxy blends

The blends of polyethersulfone and phenoxy were prepared by melt mixing in a Brabenderlike apparatus. The specimens for measurements were made by compression molding and then were water-quenched at room temperature under pressure. The tensile strength, tensile modulus, elongation at break and yield, density, thermal analysis, and dynamic mechanical properties were each measured. The dependence of tensile strength, tensile modulus, elongation at break and yield, and density on composition was obtained. The relationship between tensile modulus and elongation at break and yield and speed of the crosshead at different weight ratios of the blends is shown. The effects of composition and miscibility on the mechanical properties are discussed. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
