The relationship between emotion regulation strategies and job search behavior among fourth-year university students
This study investigated the effect of emotion regulation strategies on job search behavior in combination with anxiety and job search self-efficacy among Chinese university fourth-year students (N = 816, mean age = 21.98, 31.5% male, 34.9% majored in science, 18.0% from “211 Project” universities). Results showed that cognitive reappraisal was positively related to job search behavior, while expressive suppression was negatively related to job search behavior. Additionally, anxiety was negatively related to job search behavior, while job search self-efficacy was positively associated with job search behavior. Moreo...

Training faculty search committees to improve racial and ethnic diversity in hiring.
There is a critical need to hire faculty from underrepresented racial and ethnic backgrounds at universities around the United States. Internal faculty consultants may help to address this need by training faculty members who serve on search committees about bias and inequities that affect the search process along with ways to avoid them. This case study seeks to guide internal faculty consultants in the United States who do this work and to address the paucity of academic attention to the process of finding workshops, securing support, and ultimately implementing such training. Specifically, this case study describes (a) ...

A Longitudinal Model of Career Search Efficacy in Engineering Students
This study (N = 286) analyzed longitudinal data in a STEM career planning course. We examined how a STEM career planning course influenced engineering students ’ career-related self-efficacy and evaluated the impact of perceived stress and career counseling. Results indicated that the STEM career planning course had a positive influence on students’ career search efficacy. Increases in perceived stress had a negative influence on students’ career sea rch efficacy, whereas positive ratings of career counseling had a positive influence on students’ career search efficacy. Implications for counseling and research are discussed.

An architecture of open-source tools to combine textual information extraction, faceted search and information visualisation
This article presents our steps to integrate complex and partly unstructured medical data into a clinical research database with subsequent decision support. Our main application is an integrated faceted search tool, accompanied by the visualisation of results of automatic information extraction from textual documents. We describe the details of our technical architecture (open-source tools), to be replicated at other universities, research institutes, or hospitals. Our exemplary use cases are nephrology and mammography. The software was first developed in the nephrology domain and then adapted to the mammography use case....

A Hybrid Enhanced Scatter Search —Composite I-Distance Indicator (eSS-CIDI) Optimization Approach for Determining Weights Within Composite Indicators
The objective function is based on the relative contributions of indicators, while the problem constraints rely on the bootstrap Composite I-distance Indicator (CIDI) approach which is also proposed herein. The eSS-CIDI approach combines the exploration capability of eSS and the data-driven constraints devised from the bootstrap CIDI. This novel weighting approach was tested on two acknowledged composite indicators: theAcademic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) and theNetworked Readiness Index (NRI). Results indicate that the composite indicators created using the eSS-CIDI weighting approach are more stable than the official ones.
