The indirect effects of smartphone addiction on accidental injuries
Background Campus pedestrian injury risks are often overlooked. While existing literature focuses on direct links between specific smartphone-related behaviors (e.g., distracted walking) and accidental injuries, the indirect mechanisms through which smartphone addiction influences such injuries remain unclear. This study investigates and quantifies these modifiable behavior-mediated indirect pathways to inform more targeted injury prevention stra…
Development and validation of a scale of healthy psychological effects of physical exercise among Chinese college students from a multidimensional mental health perspective
Background Physical exercise promotes mental health among college students, but existing studies often assess general mental health or limited psychological indicators, making it difficult to capture comprehensive healthy psychological effects after exercise. This study aimed to develop and validate the Healthy Psychological Effects of Physical Exercise Scale for College Students . Methods An initial scale was developed through theoretical analys…

Reshaping inequalities in subjective well-being across multiple urban contexts
Against the backdrop of widening intra-urban disparities in well-being, a core challenge lies in identifying and regulating environment-related well-being indicators across multiple urban settings in ways that respond to heterogeneous resident needs and enhance perceived fairness. This study innovatively incorporates inequality in subjective well-being (SWB) as a feedback mechanism into the regulation framework of objective urban well-being (OUW)…
Can generative AI effectively perform quality evaluation within social sciences? A case study in library and information science
Thus far, the usage of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) has mainly been explored for content-based evaluations. Research quality evaluations and studies focusing on fields in the social sciences are needed. Therefore, we performed a quality evaluation using state-of-the-art GAI models to assess their usability in this respect. GPT-4o and DeepSeek-V3 were employed to select papers with very high quality from a set of high quality papers. C…

We aimed to investigate the effectiveness of a psychosocial intervention on child mental health in Afghanistan. METHODS: A two-arm cluster-randomized controlled trial was conducted in 83 rural primary schools within three provinces of Afghanistan. Children in Grades 3-6, their teachers, and one adult family member were enrolled. Schools w…
Impaired sensory–motor integration in children with attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder during visual search
OBJECTIVE: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder in school-age children. Abnormal sensory-motor integration, such as concurrent visuomotor selection, is a prominent feature of ADHD. However, underlying pathophysiological substrates of impaired sensory-motor integration in childhood ADHD remain unclear. Identifying neural markers of cognitive impairment in children with ADHD is vital for the early …

Association between combined healthy lifestyle score and risk of kidney stones
Lifestyle factors such as smoking, alcohol intake, physical activity, diet, and waist circumference are linked to kidney stone (KS) risk, but their combined effect is unclear. To examine the association between a composite lifestyle score and KS risk. We analyzed 2007–2016 NHANES data from 15,774 adults aged 20–80 years. A healthy lifestyle score (0–5) was derived from five factors: nonsmoking, moderate alcohol, adequate activity, healthy diet, a…
Beyond Balance
Under conditions of limited space, ecological fragility, and relative isolation, construction and development on islands are not merely auxiliary instruments of sustainable development; rather, they constitute key processes that continuously shape island social-ecological systems. Drawing on a review of existing scholarship, this paper argues that island sustainability research remains largely framed by the paradigm of ‘balancing development and …
The Moderating Role of Leader Narcissism in Examining When and How Employee Change-Supportive Behavior Becomes Silent
Employee change-supportive behavior is widely recognized as a key asset in driving successful organizational change, yet sustaining such behavior over time remains a significant challenge. While extensive research has explored how to initiate CSB, less attention has been paid to why such support often fades. One largely overlooked factor is leader narcissism—a construct that has evolved along a parallel yet independently developed trajectory to C…
Long or short-distance travel? Mobile phone data reveals how the built environment affects elderly travel patterns
Peer effects in classrooms – Evidence from random assignment
We apply a novel approach to estimate the effects of exposure to peers with different attributes by using the predetermined leave-own-out attributes of all classmates in randomly assigned classes. This strategy allows a behavioural interpretation of the peer effect over and above the pure mechanical channel. We find that being exposed to peer groups with attributes conducive to academic achievements, induced by random variations in the shares of …

Counterfactual Road Networks
Racism, discriminatory practices, institutional bias, and systematic exclusion can take lasting physical form in the built environment. There has been growing attention to the long-term consequences of housing policies and practices on social and economic outcomes, including residential segregation, but comparatively less attention to other aspects of the built environment, such as road networks and spatial (dis)connectivity. In this article, the…

The Impact of International Students on UK Trade of Cultural Goods
This study examines the economic impact of the influx of international students on the UK's trade in cultural goods, following the abolition of the post‐study work (PSW) visa, which previously allowed graduates from non‐EU countries to stay in the United Kingdom for at least 2 years after completing a UK degree. Using administrative enrolment data covering the universe of UK higher education sector spanning from 2008 to 2016, this study provides …
Clash Moments and Narrative Empathy in Fiction
This article explores the interrelation of literary fiction and empathy and how stylistic analysis can provide insights into this interrelation, specifically through the study of point of view (POV) effects from a cognitive perspective. This article proposes the concept of “clash moments” as an area of focus, suggesting that these are parts of a literary text that are more emotionally salient and therefore particularly fruitful for the study of e…

Environmental heterogeneity drives niche differentiation and biodiversity patterns in subtropical forests. • Planted forests exhibit 5.4% higher biomass (93.41 ± 3.87 Mg·ha−1) but greater vulnerability to environmental stress. • Naturally regenerating forests leverage phylogenetic diversity and functional trait complementarity to enhance ecological stability • Synergistic effects of climate, soil, biodiversity, and functional diversity promote bi…
Acting unethical in the guise of family
摘要: 不道德亲家庭行为在组织中普遍存在且代价高昂, 当前已经成为学术界与管理层关注的焦点问题。现有文献主要聚焦于不道德亲家庭行为的前因研究, 对其后果的探讨尚显不足。本文基于不确定性-认同理论构建了不道德亲家庭行为影响员工工作和家庭生活的综合模型。通过实验研究、三方配对的多时点问卷调查研究以及5次纵向追踪研究, 本文发现不道德亲家庭行为会增强员工的家庭认同, 并通过家庭认同降低员工的组织公民行为以及家庭不文明行为。道德认同中心性调节上述效应, 当道德认同中心性较高时, 不道德亲家庭行为对家庭认同的正向影响及其对组织公民行为和家庭不文明行为的间接影响会被削弱。此外, 不道德亲家庭行为的积极后效具有短暂性, 其通过家庭认同降低家庭不文明行为的间接效应在4周后逐渐减弱, 并于6周后消失。本文为理解不道德亲家庭行为的后果、机制及边界条件提供了新视角, 对组织管理和家庭关系管理具有重要启示意义
The settlement intention of China's floating population in the cities
This paper uses data from two surveys conducted in Fujian Province in 2006 and 2002 to examine the recent situation and changes in the settlement intention of China's floating population and its determinants, and the diversification process of the floating population's migration flow. The results suggest that while the intention of the floating population to settle in the cities has increased, the places of origin remain important final destinati…
China's floating population and their settlement intention in the cities
Internal Migration Data Around the World
Compared with other demographic processes, little attention has been given to the way levels and patterns of internal migration vary around the world. This can be traced in part to the absence of any central repository of internal migration data, but it also reflects widespread variation in the ways migration is measured. If robust, reliable comparisons between countries are to be made, a clear understanding of the available data is an essential …
The floating population's household strategies and the role of migration in China's regional development and integration
This paper examines the floating population, one of the most important products of China's reform and open‐door policies since the 1980s, from the perspectives of household strategies in migration, regional development and regional integration. Based on various data sources, including government statistics, questionnaire surveys, literature research and case studies, the paper suggests that the emergence and development of the floating population…
In Situ Urbanization in Rural China
In most parts of the developing world, the urbanization process has been dominated by rural-urban migration and the growth of existing cities. However, case-studies in China's Fujian Province suggest that this process can also be achieved mainly by in situ transformation in rural areas. Such in situ transformation of rural areas has been driven mainly by two forces, the development of township and village enterprises (TVEs) and the inflow of fore…
Types and determinants of migrants' settlement intention in China's new phase of urbanization
Migration in China
Internal migration trends in China are well documented, but existing studies rely almost exclusively on period measures applied to cross‐sectional data. To examine long‐term trends, this paper adopts a cohort perspective and analyses migration levels and patterns and reasons for moving for cohorts born between 1935 and 1974. It applies a series of newly developed cohort measures to nationally representative migration histories retrospectively col…
Internal migration in the countries of Asia
Internal migration, the movement of people between localities and regions within a country, has resulted in a significant redistribution of national populations. Past cross-national studies have been impeded by a lack of data and comparable metrics upon which to base comparisons. This paper examines internal migration in 30 Asian countries utilising a global dataset and a novel suite of measures devised in the IMAGE project. Three aspects of inte…
The Changing Economic Advantage from Private Schools
Private schooling is an important feature of education systems across the world. Despite its relatively small size, the British private school sector has a long history and plays a prominent role in society. We provide evidence showing that private schools have been successful in transforming their ability to generate the academic outputs that are most in demand in the modern economy: the private/state school wage differential has risen significa…
Does Education Raise Productivity, or Just Reflect it
Education has an important effect on wages but it not clear whether this is because education raises productivity or because education is simply a signal of ability. We implement a number of existing tests for discriminating between these two explanations and find that they do not support the signalling hypothesis. However, we have severe reservations about these results and we propose an alternative test based on changes in education incentives …
Return migration and in situ urbanization of migrant sending areas
Beyond large‐city‐centred urbanisation
This paper explores China’s in situ urbanisation and its implications for the paradigm of extended metropolitan areas. Based on preliminary results of the 2000 census, field surveys and interviews, government statistics and documents, and direct observation in Fujian Province of China, a region without much influence of mega‐cities, the analysis shows that in situ urbanisation resulting from the transformation of rural settlements has played an i…

Child Support and Partnership Dissolution
This article studies the determinants of partnership dissolution and focuses on the role of child support. We exploit the variation in child support liabilities and entitlements driven, in part, by the introduction of a new set of complex rules that determined child support liability in the UK, and by their interaction with welfare rules. Our panel has the virtue that the post 1993 variation in child support liability for all couples in partnersh…
Bank Market Power and Central Bank Digital Currency
This paper develops a micro-founded general equilibrium model of payments to study the impact of a central bank digital currency (CBDC) on intermediation of private banks. If banks have market power in the deposit market, a CBDC can enhance competition, raising the deposit rate, expanding intermediation, and increasing output. A calibration to the US economy suggests that a CBDC can raise bank lending by 1.57% and output by 0.19%. These crowding-…
Returns to higher education subjects and tiers in China
Using the China Family Panel Studies, we identify the subjects studied by vocational college and university graduates, with the latter group further divided into ordinary and key universities. While the returns are around 8–10% to attending colleges and ordinary universities, there are higher returns of 12–16% per annum to attending the more prestigious key universities. The recent massive expansion of the higher education sector resulted in redu…
Long or short-distance travel? Mobile phone data reveals how the built environment affects elderly travel patterns
Can the teaching style reduce inequality in the classroom? Evidence from a quasi‐experiment
We investigate the effects of ‘lecture‐based’ (LBT)—i.e. individual work and rote learning—vs. ‘discussion‐based’ (DBT)—i.e. participative and focused on student‐centred learning—teaching styles on the test scores and socio‐economic inequality of middle‐school students randomly assigned to classes using data from the China Education Panel Survey—a large‐scale nationally representative survey. Estimates from unconditional quantile regressions and …
The returns to UK degrees for foreign‐educated graduates
Exploiting information on foreign qualifications for the first time, we estimate the returns to obtaining UK higher degrees for foreign graduates who migrated to the UK in their 20s. Accounting for direct measures of foreign and UK qualifications and country‐of‐origin fixed effects, we find substantial returns to obtaining UK (higher) degrees on hourly wages and occupational attainment for both genders, working mainly through occupational attainm…
China
In general, data on international migration in China are limited. The Entry-Exit Administration classifies foreigners in China into short-term migrants, long-term migrants and permanent residents. Emigrants from China include tourists, those visiting relatives, students, workers, permanent residents, Xinyimin (new emigrants or those who left China from 1978 to live permanently abroad), and ChuJing (leaving the border or Mainland Chinese bound for…
Patterns of population and employment change in Shanghai in the 1990s
Dividing Shanghai into the core, the inner zone and the outer zone, this paper examines its spatial changes in population and employment in the 1990s, compares them with those in some Asian megaurban regions, and explores the underlying factors behind those changes and differences. The study shows that the population grew the fastest in the inner zone, resembling the situation in the Asian mega-urban regions. However, the core in Shanghai experie…

Do Migrants Really Save More? Understanding the Impact of Remittances on Savings in Rural China
This article studies the impact of remittances on the savings behaviour of rural households in China, using a primary survey undertaken by the authors in 2006. Allowing for endogeneity and left-censoring of remittances, we find that the marginal propensity to save out of remittances is well below half of that out of other sources of incomes. Moreover, we find no evidence of any direct effect of remittances on either capital input or gross output …

Employee work experience, locomotion, and voice behavior
Experienced employees are a crucial asset and intelligent resource for organizations. In this study, we examined the effect of employee work experience on employee voice behavior. We also proposed employee locomotion as a factor that would affect voice behavior jointly with their work experience and we further proposed that work experience would interact with locomotion to influence voice behavior. Data from subordinates ( n = 170) and their imme…
Coaching leadership and employee voice behavior
Based on the theory of emotional contagion, we used multilevel linear analysis to explore whether or not the psychological mechanism through which coaching leadership promotes voice behavior was follower psychological capital. Data were collected from supervisor–subordinate dyads of 57 supervisors and 328 employees. Results showed that coaching leadership was positively related to employee voice behavior, and moreover, that follower psychological…
Linking Psychological Capital and Feedback-seeking Behavior
Although previous researchers have examined the effects of the 4 positive psychological resources of psychological capital (PsyCap) on feedback-seeking behavior, and the influence of PsyCap on proactive behavior, the relationship between PsyCap and feedback-seeking behavior and its underlying mechanism has not been established. Thus, we explored whether or not the link between PsyCap and feedback-seeking behavior was mediated by feedback cognitio…
