Extroverts Tweet Differently from Introverts in Weibo

Being dominant factors driving the human actions, personalities can be excellent indicators in predicting the offline and online behavior of different individuals. However, because of the great expense and inevitable subjectivity in questionnaires and surveys, it is challenging for conventional studies to explore the connection between personality and behavior and gain insights in the context of large amount individuals. Considering the more and more important role of the online social media in daily communications, we argue that the footprint of massive individuals, like tweets in Weibo, can be the inspiring proxy to infer the personality and further understand its functions in shaping the online human behavior. In this study, a map from self-reports of personalities to online profiles of 293 active users in Weibo is established to train a competent machine learning model, which then successfully identifies over 7,000 users as extroverts or introverts. Systematical comparisons from perspectives of tempo-spatial patterns, online activities, emotion expressions and attitudes to virtual honor surprisingly disclose that the extrovert indeed behaves differently from the introvert in Weibo. Our findings provide solid evidence to justify the methodology of employing machine learning to objectively study personalities of massive individuals and shed lights on applications of probing personalities and corresponding behaviors solely through online profiles.Comment: Datasets of this study can be freely downloaded through: https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.4765150.v

Molybdenum complexes derived from the oxydianiline [(2-NH₂C₆H₄)₂O] : synthesis, characterization and ε-caprolactone ROP capability

The reaction of Na₂MoO₄ with 2,2′-oxydianiline (2-aminophenylether), (2-NH₂C₆H₄)₂O, LH₄, in DME (DME = 1,2-dimethoxyethane) in the presence of Et₃N and Me₃SiCl afforded either the bis(imido) molybdenum(VI) complex {Mo(L)Cl₂(DME)} (1), where L = (2-NC₆H₄)₂O, or the molybdenum(V) salt [Mo(L′)Cl₄][Et₃NH] (2), where L′ = [(2-NH₂C₆H₄)(2-NC₆H₄)O], depending on the work-up method employed. The same diamine reacted with in situ [Mo(NtBu)₂Cl₂(DME)] afforded a tetra-nuclear complex [Mo₄Cl₃(NtBu)₃(OSiMe₃)(μ₄-O)(L)₂(L′)₂]·2MeCN (3·2MeCN). The crystal structures of 1, 2 and 3·2MeCN have been determined. The structure of the bis(imido) complex 1 contains two unique molecules paired up via weak π-stacking, whereas the structure of 2 contains a chelating amine/imido ligand, and is made up of discrete units of two cations and two anions which are interacting via H-bonding. The tetra-nuclear structure 3 contains four different types of distorted octahedral molybdenum centre, and a bent Me₃SiO group thought to originate from the precursor synthesis. Complexes 1–3 have been screened for their ability to ring open polymerize (ROP) ε-caprolactone. For 1 and 3 (not 2), conversion rates were good (>90%) at high temperatures (100 °C) over 6–24 h, and the polymerization proceeded in a living manner

Acoustic guiding and subwavelength imaging with sharp bending by sonic crystal

A sharp bending scheme for the self-collimation of acoustic waves is proposed by simply truncating the sonic crystals. An all-angle and wide-band 90{\deg}-bending wave guide is demonstrated with nearly perfect transmissions for Gaussian beams at a wide range of incident angles. A 90{\deg}-bended imaging for a point source with a subwavelength resolution of 0 0.37{\lambda} is also realized by the proposed structure. These results will find applicability in the manipulation of acoustic waves by sonic crystals.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figure
