... This influence is evident not only through direct communication but also by subtly affecting individuals' decisions based on their observations of peers' consumption behaviors and attitudes [43]. Nguyen et al. (2024) found that individuals in a positive peer environment often experience a significant increase in perceived value, providing further support for our hypothesis [44]. Therefore, we formulate the following hypothesis. ...

... The short discussion above shows that this new approach to an enlarged definition (or view or notion) will likely empower us to more effectively consider different notions of value across research or professional disciplines-economic, socio-cultural, or humanistic-under a more enabling theoretical paradigm [8][9][10]. It is because now the key ingredients, i.e., information, quantum states, interactions, information entropy, and probabilistic assignments, will help build productive thinking apparatuses from basic granules [11]. ...

... However, suicidal ideation does not inherently exist within an individual's cognitive system but rather represents a gradually evolving psychological phenomenon. The emergence and manifestation of suicidal ideation often involve a complex psychological process and dynamic changes (7,8). The mindsponge mechanism offers a unique perspective for understanding this process, revealing the formation mechanism of suicidal ideation through the lens of multi-layered information filtering (7). ...

... In addition, this study can be the basis for the development of a literature curriculum that emphasizes the relationship between the intrinsic elements of the text and students' life experiences, so that learning becomes more applicable in everyday life. In terms of cultural preservation, this study contributes to efforts to maintain Indonesian oral literature by making Ande-Ande Lumut the object of study, which allows students to understand folklore in a more effective way and increase their appreciation of cultural heritage, so that the values contained in folklore can continue to be passed on to future generations (Noviana et al., 2023;Ho et al., 2024;Dyah et al., 2025). ...

... In "GHG Emissions"; Wild Wise Weird (2024) Wild Wise Weird illustrates that conveying environmental messages does not necessarily require strong slogans, radical activism, or vandalism but can instead engage readers through the rationality and emotions of a personified protagonist like Kingfisher (Vuong, Nguyen, Duong, & La, 2024). The character's humor and wisdom invite readers to embrace it, encouraging them to reconsider their own thoughts, choices, and actions to reduce environmental impacts and contribute to ecological sustainability. ...

... Individuals become more skilled and adopt technology when it is easier to use (Kartikasari et al., 2020). Furthermore, the perceived ease of using technology determines students' behavior in using intentions to support learning (Sari et al., 2024). In this research, Gen Z who are currently pursuing undergraduate education are thought to be more skilled and adopt AI technology in green behavior. ...

... Thus, increasing opportunities for nature interactions (e.g., pets, plants, public parks, nature-based recreation) and environmental education can be a good strategy to shape urban residents' aesthetic perception. Effectively implementing the strategy can lead to a loop of aesthetic experience, eco-surplus culture, natural conservation, and biodiversity (Nguyen and Jones, 2022a;Nguyen, Nguyen, et al. 2024;Tribot et al. 2018;Vuong, 2021;Vuong and Nguyen, 2024b). This strategy is especially applicable and essential for young generations that are born and nurtured in urban areas, as they are the populations that have limited interactions with the natural environment but will be responsible for environmental decisionmaking in the future (Vuong, 2020a). ...

... According to mindsponge theory, when the government releases emergency science communication information to the public, people have two options. On the one hand, they can choose to absorb new ideas that match their understanding, and on the other hand, they can ignore those that do not match their understanding (Vuong et al. 2024a). Thus, an effective way to improve emergency science communication is to expand the range of public perception and broaden the buffer zone in public consciousness to enhance the public's ability to deal with emergency scientific information when emergencies occur Vuong et al. 2024b). ...
