With the intensification of social competition and increasing employment pressure on college students, Career Maturity has become a crucial factor influencing their career choices and employment adaptability. As an individual’s perceived capability in the career decision-making process, Career Decision-Making Self-efficacy plays a significant role in enhancing Career Maturity. This study explores the feasibility of intervening in college students’ Career Maturity through improving Career Decision-Making Self-efficacy, reveals the positive impact of enhancing Career Decision-Making Self-efficacy on students’ Career Maturity, and discusses feasible intervention pathways and implementation strategies. The findings provide valuable theoretical foundations and practical guidance for career counseling and educational practices in higher education institutions.

Against the backdrop of the continuous advancement of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), shaping the competitiveness of higher education in participating countries has become a crucial proposition for regional coordinated development. Taking Kazakhstan as a research sample, this paper systematically combs through the current status of its higher education development, deeply analyzes the internal and external factors forming its competitiveness from a professional and technical dimension, and constructs the corresponding coupling mechanism. The study finds that Kazakhstan’s higher education has internal shortcomings such as spatial mismatches of resources and lagging curriculum systems, and faces external challenges such as intensified regional educational competition and global shifts in educational paradigms. Through refined strategies like establishing dynamic resource allocation models and constructing industry-education integration curriculum matrices, a benign coupling of internal and external factors is expected to be achieved, providing a referenceable practical path for the development of higher education in BRI countries.

This paper focuses on the translation of red culture linguistic landscapes in maritime museums. Marine museums serve as vital venues for transmitting and showcasing marine culture and red history. The translation of these language landscapes is not merely about conveying information accurately but also involves cultural exchange and dissemination. Through in-depth analysis of red culture language landscapes in marine museums, this paper proposes a series of translation principles and methods aimed to improve the translation quality of red cultural linguistic landscapes in maritime museum and promote the international dissemination of red culture, enhance cultural confidence.

Chronic pain not only brings a great threat to the physical health of patients, but also has a great influence on the psychological health of patients, even leading to the patients in a low mood and reducing the quality of life. This study discusses the application of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) in the psychological adjustment of chronic pain patients. And then we will analyze the regulation of emotion, pain and self-acceptance of patients after MBSR.Based on the literature review and theoretical analysis, this paper discusses the psychological adjustment process of chronic pain patients and the principles of MBSR. The research results show that Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction can improve the patients’ emotional regulation, change the perception of pain and improve the self-acceptance, which can improve the quality of life. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction is an effective psychological adjustment method for chronic pain patients. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction can reduce the patients’ psychological distress by adjusting the emotion, cognition and behavior.

With the deep integration of artificial intelligence technology into higher education, college students, as digital natives, have significantly improved their acceptance and use frequency of AI tools. However, the influence mechanism of AI awareness and use behavior on academic performance has not been systematically studied. Based on the technology acceptance model (TAM), this study collected samples through questionnaire survey, combined with descriptive statistics, factor analysis and path analysis, explored the differentiated impacts of AI challenge awareness and AI threat awareness on academic performance, and revealed the mediating role of perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness. The results show that AI challenge awareness has a significantly positive effect on academic performance, while AI threat awareness also has a positive effect, but its effect is weak and may inhibit the active use of tools. Perceived ease of use plays a partial mediating role between AI challenge awareness and academic performance, while perceived usefulness plays a key mediating role in the influence path of AI challenge awareness and AI threat awareness. This study puts forward suggestions from the perspectives of universities, education management departments and students, and provides theoretical basis and practical enlightenment for optimizing AI education strategies in universities and promoting the transformation of education into digital intelligence.

Educational resources are the basis to ensure the quality of higher education, but the traditional allocation of educational resources is easy to be limited by space and disciplines, and there are problems such as unfair allocation of resources and mismatch with demand. With the development of digital technology, the limitation of space and time has been effectively broken. Through the sharing and independent search of digital resources, digital resources have been provided to colleges and universities in the economic implementation areas, and the improvement of the mismatch of educational resources has been supported. This study will mainly explore the optimization path of higher education resource mismatch under the digital background, in order to provide references for the optimization and coordinated development of higher education resources.

This study takes the xi ( 觿 ) as its central subject, employing an interdisciplinary approach that integrates philology, archaeology, and ritual culture to systematically investigate its etymological origins and structural evolution. Through analysis of oracle bone and bronze script glyphs, we demonstrate that the earliest forms of xi pictographically “resembled a horn-tipped tool for untying knots,” unequivocally revealing its utilitarian functional essence. Furthermore, by examining the phonetic-semantic modification strategies in Western Zhou bronze inscriptions—particularly the intentional adoption of the xi ( 嶲 ) phonetic component with its dual connotations of sound and meaning—this research elucidates the dynamic interplay between graphic evolution and ritual institutionalization. The study thus establishes how the character’s structural transformation materially encoded the object’s sociocultural transition from mundane implement to ceremonial symbol.

VR technology has unique immersive, interactive, and imaginative characteristics, which have opened up new development space for sports advertising education. Traditional sports advertising teaching is often constrained by temporal and spatial factors, making it difficult for students to fully and deeply experience the real project operation environment. The emergence of VR technology has effectively broken through this limitation. It can create highly realistic sports advertising practice scenes, allowing students to feel as if they are truly immersed in the actual project operation process. Based on this, this article focuses on exploring the problems existing in the traditional sports advertising education process and proposes targeted reform strategies for the sports advertising education model.
