Emotion Regulation for Counselors-in-Training: A Grounded Theory

The authors explored emotion regulation (ER) among 25 counseling professionals (master's-level counselors-in-training and counseling supervisors) using grounded theory and established 5 themes: (a) emotional experiences, (b) emotion processing, (c) metacognition, (d) emotional self-protection, and (e) emotional support. The emerging theory provides a foundation for teaching and practicing ER.     

What drives purchase intention in the context of online content services? The moderating role of ethical self-efficacy for online piracy

With the proliferation of online content service industry, understanding the factors affecting consumer intention to purchase online content services has become an important issue for academics and practitioners. While previous research has suggested that consumers’ perceived value and moral judgment are two main factors influencing behavioral intention to purchase online content services, few studies have explored what drives perceived value and if customers’ ethical self-efficacy will moderate the effect of perceived value on purchase intention. Thus, based on the value-based adoption model and previous literature, this study explores the antecedents of perceived value and the moderating effect of ethical self-efficacy for online piracy (ESEOP) on the relationship between perceived value and purchase intention in the context of online content services. Data collected from 124 respondents in Taiwan are tested against the research model using the partial least squares (PLS) approach. The results indicate that perceived enjoyment, perceived usefulness, perceived fee, and ESEOP have a significant influence on perceived value and that ESEOP can enhance the positive effect of perceived value on purchase intention. The findings of this study provide several important theoretical and practical implications for consumer online content purchase behaviors.     

孙疃-赵集勘探区现今地温场特征及其高温热害预测

淮北煤田是中国东部主要的煤炭生产基地之一.通过分析淮北煤田孙疃-赵集2个新勘探矿区中测温数据资料,绘制出了研究区主采煤层在后期开采中可能产生高温热害的分布图.研究表明:孙疃-赵集勘探区现今地温梯度分布范围介于1.7 ～3.6℃/hm,平均现今地温梯度约为2.68℃/hm,3个主采煤层的高温热害区表现出了东高西低的特点.
