Sport fans’ curiosity and impulsive buying: mediation of social media use intensity by Chen-Yueh Chen, Ya-Lun Chou, Yi-Hsiu Lin, Yen-Kuang Lin

“…IntroductionSports fans' curiosity and impulsive buying tendencies are important topics in sports marketing, yet the mediating role of social media use intensity in linking these variables remains underexplored. Grounded in the Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) theory, this study examines how social media use intensity mediates the relationship between sports fans' curiosity and impulsive buying behavior.MethodsThe study sampled 623 Taiwanese sports fans, including baseball and basketball enthusiasts, to investigate these relationships. …”

A multimodal characterization of low-dimensional thalamocortical structural connectivity patterns by Alexandra John, Meike D. Hettwer, H. Lina Schaare, Amin Saberi, Şeyma Bayrak, Bin Wan, Jessica Royer, Boris C. Bernhardt, Sofie L. Valk

“…Lastly, exploring multimodal associations globally, we observe the principal axis consistently differentiating limbic, frontoparietal, and default mode network nodes from dorsal and ventral attention networks across modalities. However, the link with sensory modalities varies. In sum, we show the coherence between lower dimensional patterns of thalamocortical structural connectivity and various modalities, shedding light on multiscale thalamic organization.…”

Unraveling the dyadic dynamics: exploring the impact of flexible working arrangements’ availability on satisfaction with work-life flexibility among working parents by Ya Guo, Fenwick Feng Jing, Yuqi Zhong, Meng Zhu, Senhu Wang

“…Abstract Despite ample research on the association between the availability of flexible working arrangements (FWAs) and satisfaction from an individual perspective, little has explored the dyadic correlation between the availability of FWAs and satisfaction with work-life flexibility (WLF) from a couple-level perspective among working parents. Drawing on a linked lives perspective and the work-family border theory, this study contributes to the literature by adopting the longitudinal couple-level dyadic data from the Household, Income, and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) survey (2001–2021) to examine how couples’ availability of FWAs affects their own and their spouses’ satisfaction with WLF among working parents. …”
