    Review of Research on Influencing Factors of Personnel Recruitment

    With the development of society and the increase of talent in recent years, recruitment has become an essential step for enterprises. This article studies the factors that affect employee recruitment, with the aim of improving the future survival and development of enterprises, reducing the huge losses caused by personnel changes, and indirectly improving the efficiency of enterprises. By using literature research methods to understand the factors that affect employee recruitment, the content can be divided into factors, problems, countermeasures, suggestions, and future sections. And through reading a large amount of literature, it can be concluded that the main factors affecting employee recruitment include the degree of job matching, differentiated needs, discrimination, recruiters’ own literacy, and the rationality of human resource planning. The main countermeasures are to effectively implement personnel job matching, differentiate the treatment of applicants, standardize the recruitment process of enterprise employees, scientifically formulate human resource planning, and improve the professional literacy of human resource management personnel. Effective recruitment work improves employee quality and personnel structure, and injects new management ideas into the organization, adds new vitality to the organization, and may even bring significant technological and management innovations to the enterprise.

    The Influence of Cognitive Bias on Risk Decision-making under Uncertain Conditions: A Case Study of 1986 Challenger

    Decision-making is full of our lives, but any decision is risky. Every single decision-making mistake may bring losses that are unpredictable. How to make rational decisions and reduce the decision loss is the hot topic in dis-cussion. Although the cognitive biases have been widely studied in many fields, the mechanism of each cognitive bias’s impact on risk decision-making has not been fully researched. In addition, the relevant risk decision research is mainly focused on the financial management, and the relevant theories have not been applied to the risk decision in daily life. Therefore, this paper will focus on 3 types of cognitive biases including confirmation bias, overconfidence and frame effect. After researching related theories, ex-pected return and risk perception are considered as two main intermediates between cognitive biases and risk decision-making. And then the paper will apply relative theories and analyze 1986 Challenger launch decision case to explain the way cognitive biases acting on risk-decision making behaviors. Finally, the paper will give reasonable suggestions for both individuals and groups to make better risk decision and reduce decision errors.

    Understanding and Treating Eating Disorders in a Psychoanalytic Approach

    Eating disorders are mental illnesses, including anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge-eating disorder. Psychoanalysis is a common approach applied in psychotherapies, which focuses on people’s unconsciousness. Projection, transference, and countertransference are defense mechanisms identified by psychoanalysis. This review mainly discusses the role of the psychoanalytic approach in understanding and treating eating disorder patients. The likelihood of developing eating disorders is closely related to people’s personalities, current life situations, and interpersonal relationships. Through early observational learning, young children tend to regulate their emotions in a similar manner to their parents. People form a secure attachment or an insecure attachment mainly in childhood. The attachment types are likely to predict one’s probability of developing eating disorders in later life. The majority of patients experience eating disorders due to certain unconscious reasons. To treat eating disorders that are caused by past experiences, the key is to identify the meaning underlying their issues in eating that are related to their childhood. This review can provide some guidance to the development of parent education programs.

    Research on the Phenomenon of Educational Migration in China

    In recent years, China’s educational migration project has narrowed the gap in educational resources between regions and successfully reduced the incidence of poverty. However, students who participate in educational migration need to leave their original learning and living environment, and in such a context, they often face cultural adaptation issues. As migrants, the new living environment can make them feel unfamiliar and even require them to give up traditional living habits; as students, a decrease in the frequency of interaction with family can have a negative impact on their physical and mental development, and ethnic minority students may also face communication difficulties due to language barriers. Educational migrant students, educational migrant receiving schools, and relocation areas are the three main bodies of the educational migrant project. This paper uses qualitative analysis to analyze the cultural adaptation, psychological education, and human resource loss issues in relocation areas, and proposes targeted suggestions on how to better integrate these three bodies with the educational migrant project. Schools that receive educational migrants need to actively take measures to ensure teaching effectiveness, such as strengthening infrastructure construction, improving students’ cultural adaptability, conducting psychological counseling courses, and encouraging some vocational education graduates to return to their hometowns for employment to solve the problem of human resource loss.

    The Status of Left-behind Children in Rural Areas under the Background of Parents’ Migration

    The group of left-behind children in China has long been characterized by large-scale and numerous challenges, among which the education of left-behind children has been the center of attention and a contentious topic. In China, there were 170 million rural migrant laborers by 2022. Rural migration may have a significant positive influence on the families, communities, and work force of the migrants as well as on themselves personally. It is important to investigate how these massive rural migratory workers affect the family unit, particularly their children. The object of this paper is the left-behind children in rural areas under the background of parents’ migration. There are two main research directions: the first is the behavioral problems of left-behind children in rural areas under the background of parents’ migration and the causes and countermeasures of the behavioral problems; the second is the education status of left-behind children in rural areas under the background of parents’ migration. Children whose parents migrated had a considerably greater overall frequency of behavior problem than children who were not left behind. When one parent migrated, the likelihood of problem behavior in the children was much higher when the mother migrated than when the father migrated. Children’s academic performance is significantly influenced by aspects related to education, including family education spending, involvement in education, and supervision in school.

    Comparison and Enlightenment Between IELTS and Different English Language Examations in China

    The world-renowned international English test, the IELTS test, tests students’ comprehensive English language proficiency. Compared to some selective English language tests in China, the IELTS test has various aspects that are worth learning from it. In recent years, some English language tests in China have some shortcomings that still need to be improved to some extent, and the testing methods and concepts demonstrated in the IELTS test can make up for the shortcomings of Chinese English testing. This article aims to compare the IELTS with the Chinese English test in terms of exam organization and requirements, exam question types and content, and discuss the summary and inspiration for Chinese exams and education. The research results indicate that some testing concepts and methods in the IELTS exam are worth learning from in Chinese education. English language tests in China can also refer to its advantages to reform and optimize its own examination and education models, making the domestic examination system and education model more suitable for Chinese students. Practice has also proven that in some regions where the IELTS exam has been implemented, the education system has also been positively affected, and the educational effectiveness of students has also been significantly improved.

    To what Extent does Cognitive Bias Play a Role in the Prediction of Black Swan Events Using the Challenger's Case Study

    In this essay, different types of cognitive biases and its role in the prediction of black swan events is explored through the use of the 1986 Challenger disaster. The challenger’s case was mainly caused by its o-rings failure due to cold weather, which was unpredictable and unexpected by all engineers at NASA. The different types of cognitive biases that were in-volved in this event were confirmation biases, sunk cost fallacy and groupthink mentally. Along with the political and social pressures at the time, these confirmation biases play a role in the false decision-making process during the challenger’s launch, which in itself is a black swan event. This leads to an importance in the prevention and recognition of cognitive biases, which requires strategies.

    The Role of Self-Regulation in Internet Addiction during Adolescence

    During adolescence, individuals experience a period of significant development of emotional control, self-regulation and decision-making skills. While this is a period of opportunity for adolescents to benefit from knowledge, social life, and physical activities, it is also a time where the excessive availability of information and internet usage can potentially have detrimental effects on their mental health, academic performance, and physiology. This study aims to discuss the potential relationship between low-level self-regulation and the development of internet addiction in adolescents. With the widespread use of smartphones among young people, internet addiction has become a severe problem. Adolescents who prioritize short-term goals and focus on immediate gratification or adopt competitive gamming style may exhibit low-level self-regulation, which is a risk factor for developing internet addiction. In addition, poor family functioning, low parent education, the presence of interparental conflict, and restrictive parental mediation may also be significant factors contributing to the onset of internet addiction. Furthermore, the co-occurrence of lower self-regulation and severe internet addiction may have a substantial negative impact on academic performance and quality of life. The previous study’s findings demonstrate a causal relationship between self-regulation and internet addiction. However, applying voluntary sampling methods to collect data, social desirability biases, and cultural bias are some of the limitations of most research in this area. Future research should adopt stratified sampling methods, tailor their survey and instruments to be culturally sensitive to investigate the underlying mechanisms that give rise to this association.

    How do Audible Message Notifications Influence the Quantity and Quality of Child-Directed Speech from Parents?

    The impact of direct mobile phone usage on child-directed speech (CDS) has been frequently explored. However, little is known about the effects of passive mobile phone interaction regarding this aspect. Using a repeated measures design with counterbalancing and a yoked control design, the present study examines the influence of audible message notifications on the quantity and quality of CDS delivered by parents. Results indicate that receiving message notifications reduces both the amount and quality of CDS and that a familiar message notification has a greater effect on diminishing parent-child interaction than an unfamiliar message notification. The findings thus have implications for parents, highlighting the importance of reducing passive mobile phone usage to construct a better language-learning environment for toddlers.

    Acquiring Multiple Languages: Comparing the Efficiency of Learning L3 and L4 Simultaneously vs. Learning L3 First and L4 Later

    This article discusses the worldwide demand for third language acquisition and fourth language acquisition. It reviews the current research on Language acquisition in relevant fields. Previous research is mainly about L2 learning, while this paper will fill the blank of L3 and L4 learning and compare the efficiency of learning L3 and L4 in different ways. By Control variates, we may find a more reasonable way for adults to learn new languages. There are experiments that the researchers let the Turkish-Persian bilinguals, Armenian-Persian bilinguals, and Persian monolinguals learn English, and compare their performance in vocabulary, or study Chinese students’ learning outcome of studying English and Russian. These experiments are all helpful and meaningful, but they only compare one aspect--vocabulary or writing, which is isolated and one-sided. This article compares students’ performance comprehensively, adopting standardized language tests to test students’ reading, listening, speaking and writing skills. But one major limitation of the study is that we don’t exclude the gender impact. This will be the later future directions. This research shows that there is a need on acquiring multiple languages in today’s globalized world, our researches should pay more attention on this field.

    Faculty’s Awareness to the Situation of Students with Mild Hearing Loss in a Single School in a Large City in China

    Plenty of research has shown that noisy environment has significant impact on children’s speech recognition, especially on children with different degrees of hearing impairment. Modifications on the construction of classroom and improvement in study environment help assist children with MHL to perceive more information in class. Several research studies assessing environment of classrooms in normal schools which are for normal children and children with hearing loss in China have found that traffic noise, speech shape masking, babble noise and other typical noises around school sites impose negative impact on Chinese speech intelligibility of children in elementary school. By analyzing the result of a designed questionnaire, this research focused on the faculty’s awareness to the situation of students with mild hearing loss in a single school in Wuhan, a large city in China in order to find possible measurements that can be taken by the faculty to improve the learning experience of students with hearing loss at school.

    Comparing the Secondary Education in UK with the High School Education in China

    In modern society, education belongs to a highly developed stage, and China’s education is also constantly developing and improving. High school education in China has always been a focus of social concern, and so far, exam-oriented education still dominates high school education. Compared with the secondary education in the UK, there are significant differences in the types of high school education in China, as well as in the educational models and historical backgrounds of development. In China, high school education has developed over a comparatively short span of time, and through comparison, it was found that there are some problems in current high school education. In order to change the current situation of high school education in China, the Chinese government has proposed the concept of quality education and the dual reduction policy, which requires continuous efforts to ultimately be implemented. Teachers need to change teaching methods, improve teaching concepts, promote and help students increase confidence, enhance cooperation and innovation abilities. Students should also make independent changes, diverge their thinking, use dialectical methods to see problems, and think about multiple aspects of the problem, in order to improve their logical thinking ability and innovative cooperation ability, and maintain a positive attitude towards learning.
