Disappointed or Understood? The Effect of Filial Discrepancy on Life Satisfaction of Older Adults in Rural China
Filial discrepancy, the incongruence between older adults’ filial expectations and filial support received, has become increasingly pronounced amid demographic, cultural, economic, and intergenerational transitions in rural China, presenting psychological challenges for older adults. This study examines its effects on life satisfaction and the mediating role of filial evaluation. Using data from the eighth wave (2021) of the Longitudinal Study of…
Confronting the ruputures of event
This analysis bridges Žižek’s event theory with Levinas’ ethics to explore Paul Auster’s fifteenth novel, Invisible, in which the encounter with the Other’s face disrupts the event’s symbolic hold and compels ethical action. This paper examines these ruptures from multiple perspectives and posits that war and violence are not merely disruptive forces that dismantle societal order; rather, through mechanisms of power, they become phenomena that ar…
Reconceiving Paul Auster’s Invisible through the lens of chaos theory
Paul Auster’s novel Invisible showcases the complexity of narrative and the uncertainty of its meaning. However, interpreting it as a complex chaotic system enables readers to clarify the text’s context and gain insight into the author’s intentions. As a representation of a chaotic system, the narrative plot exemplifies the “butterfly effect,” highlighting the disorder and unpredictability of the characters’ fates. Meanwhile, the narrative struct…
Reflexivity as Method, or Reading Africa from China
Transnational cultural encounters between Africa and China, such as Chinese artist Pu Yingwei’s exploration of Kenya’s dam infrastructure and the reception of French-Senegalese director Mati Diop’s film Dahomey on African artifact repatriation among Chinese youth, generate new sites of knowledge circulation and epistemic inquiry. These exchanges exemplify an approach of “reflexivity,” which emphasizes critical reflection on one’s own positionalit…

The Effectiveness of Social Norm Appeals on Promoting Covid-19 Prevention Behaviors
Recent research shows social norm perceptions predict people's adherence to COVID-19 preventative health practices. Nonetheless, additional empirical studies are necessary to evaluate the effectiveness of different types of social norm messages on behavioral outcomes with experimental designs. Guided by the social norm literature and frameworks, the current research addresses this need by examining the effects of descriptive and injunctive norm a…
Modeling the Relationship Between Perceived Descriptive Norms and Willingness to Practice Covid-19 Preventative Behaviors
Social norm has been found to impact compliance with COVID-19 preventative behaviors, including handwashing, wearing a face mask, social distancing, and cleaning and disinfecting frequently touched surfaces. There is, however, a limited understanding of the social norm influence mechanisms and its boundary condition in the context of COVID-19. Guided by the theory of normative social behaviors (TNSB), this study conducted an online survey (N = 33…

Data Exclusion in Policy Survey and Questionnaire Data
Data preprocessing is an integral step prior to analyzing data in psychological science, with implications for its potentially guiding policy. This article reports how psychological researchers address data preprocessing or quality concerns, with a focus on aberrant responses and missing data in self-report measures. 240 articles were sampled from four journals: Psychological Science, Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, Developmental Ps…
Biomechanical homeostasis in ocular diseases
Diabetes mellitus-induced hyperglycemia is responsible for multiple pathological ocular alternations from vasculopathy to biomechanical dyshomeostasis. Biomechanical homeostasis is crucial to maintain the normal physiological condition of the eyes. Biomechanical features vary in eye tissues regarding different anatomical positions, tissue components, and cellular functions. The disturbance in biomechanical homeostasis may result in different ocul…
Effects of nostalgic messages on ad persuasiveness
This meta-analysis examined the effectiveness of nostalgic messages on ad persuasiveness. Based on 23 articles (31 studies, 39 pairs of comparisons, N = 5814), this study found that nostalgic messages (compared to non-nostalgic messages) have a positive, small effect on persuasion (r = .19, SE = .02, 95% CI [.15, .24], p < .001). Additionally, the effect of nostalgic messages tended to be stronger if (1) the advertised product was high in hedonic…

Entraide spontanée, entraide provoquée en Chine rurale
La paysannerie chinoise est sans conteste la plus nombreuse dans le monde. C'est aussi la plus mal connue. L'arrivée au pouvoir du régime communiste, il y a trente ans, a relégué ce que nous pouvions savoir d'elle derrière le prisme des vérités officielles. Et parmi ces vérités, il y a l'adhésion des masses paysannes au socialisme des structures collectives que le pouvoir nouveau a partout implantées dans les campagnes.Cette ' vérité ' a été accr…

Constraint-Weighted a -Stratification for Computerized Adaptive Testing With Nonstatistical Constraints
a-stratification is a method that utilizes items with small discrimination (a) parameters early in an exam and those with higher a values when more is learned about the ability parameter. It can achieve much better item usage than the maximum information criterion (MIC). To make a-stratification more practical and more widely applicable, a method for weighting the item selection process in a-stratification as a means of satisfying multiple test c…
Improving Cognitive Diagnostic Computerized Adaptive Testing by Balancing Attribute Coverage
This article proposes a new item selection method, namely, the modified maximum global discrimination index (MMGDI) method, for cognitive diagnostic computerized adaptive testing (CD-CAT). The new method captures two aspects of the appeal of an item: (a) the amount of contribution it can make toward adequate coverage of every attribute and (b) the amount of contribution it can make toward recovering the latent cognitive profile. A simulation stud…

Comparison of Reliability Measures Under Factor Analysis and Item Response Theory
Reliability of test scores is one of the most pervasive psychometric concepts in measurement. Reliability coefficients based on a unifactor model for continuous indicators include maximal reliability ρ and an unweighted sum score–based ω, among many others. With increasing popularity of item response theory, a parallel reliability measure π has been introduced using the information function. This article studies the relationship among the three r…

Bootstrap Standard Errors for Maximum Likelihood Ability Estimates When Item Parameters Are Unknown
When item parameter estimates are used to estimate the ability parameter in item response models, the standard error ( SE) of the ability estimate must be corrected to reflect the error carried over from item calibration. For maximum likelihood (ML) ability estimates, a corrected asymptotic SE is available, but it requires a long test and the covariance matrix of item parameter estimates, which may not be available. An alternative SE can be obtai…
A -Stratified Computerized Adaptive Testing in the Presence of Calibration Error
a-Stratified computerized adaptive testing with b-blocking (AST), as an alternative to the widely used maximum Fisher information (MFI) item selection method, can effectively balance item pool usage while providing accurate latent trait estimates in computerized adaptive testing (CAT). However, previous comparisons of these methods have treated item parameter estimates as if they are the true population parameter values. Consequently, capitalizat…

The Mediated MIMIC Model for Understanding the Underlying Mechanism of DIF
Due to its flexibility, the multiple-indicator, multiple-causes (MIMIC) model has become an increasingly popular method for the detection of differential item functioning (DIF). In this article, we propose the mediated MIMIC model method to uncover the underlying mechanism of DIF. This method extends the usual MIMIC model by including one variable or multiple variables that may completely or partially mediate the DIF effect. If complete mediation…
The evolved developmental niche in childhood
Following prior work linking childhood experience to adult outcomes, we used an evolutionary framework to examine effects of childhood experience on adult psychopathology and morality. Every animal provides an early life developmental system, developmental manifold or “niche” for its young, a set of inherited extra-genetic characteristics that match up with the maturational schedule of the offspring to optimize development. Humans inherit a niche…
Communicating to Influence Perceptions of Social Stigma
Homelessness is an important social problem in many countries, including the United States. The plight of the homeless is compounded by a high level of stigma associated with the homeless. This study examines the effects of humorous and nonhumorous signs used by the homeless to attract donations. Study 1 shows that nonhumorous signs attracted 10 times as much money as humorous signs. Study 2 shows that subjects felt more comfortable in the presen…
