However, general practitioners' (GPs) perceptions regarding using digital technologies to implement behavior change techniques (BCTs) in primary care settings remain unclear, especially in China. This cross-sectional study explored GPs' perceptions of such digital support and concurrent associations between perceived necessit…

Choose for Others More Randomly
Intertemporal choices involve decisions that balance trade-offs occurring at different points in time. Previous research on self–other differences in intertemporal choice, often interpreted through a psychological-distance framework, has produced mixed findings. The authors propose that part of this heterogeneity reflects systematic changes in response randomness under greater psychological distance, which can alter observed choice proportions an…
Time, emotions and moral judgements
The emergence of Generative AI (GenAI) in higher education has prompted considerable discussion within the research community. Despite their centrality, students’ perspectives remain underexplored. We investigated how students position GenAI in relation to their studies, conducting focus groups with 79 students across four Australian universities. Taking a sociotechnical stance and employing reflexive thematic analysis, we identified three primar…
Organ toxicity of Paris polyphylla in mice and the underlying hepatotoxic mechanism uncovered by an integrated network toxicology and transcriptomics
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Paris polyphylla, a prominent traditional Chinese medicinal herb known for its heat-clearing and detoxifying properties, is widely utilized to relieve pain and treat sores, snake bites, and traumatic injuries. Recent pharmacological investigations have revealed its marked anti-tumor activity. However, as research continues to advance, its potential organ toxicity has been identified, presenting certain limitations …
A Delphi Study to Identify Priority Indicators for Formulary Selection of Innovative Anticancer Drugs in China
OBJECTIVE: To develop a multi-stakeholder, consensus-based decision support framework for prioritizing innovative anticancer drugs in Chinese hospital formularies, balancing clinical benefit, patient access, and financial sustainability. METHODS: A two-round Delphi survey was conducted with a multidisciplinary expert panel (n = 62 in Round 1; n = 51 in Round 2, 82.3% retention rate) comprising clinicians, pharmacists, health administrators, and p…
Urban Poverty in the Everyday Lives of Older People
Social conditions and pressures associated with city living cause particular challenges for older people given fixed incomes, life course needs (e.g., living alone, mobility issues, need for care), and reductions to essential public supports. The proposed study explores older people’s everyday experiences of poverty and low income in the urban contexts of Toronto and Montreal, Canada’s two largest cities. In Canada, a country where federal, provi…
Chinese Development Finance and Debt Crises in the Global South
The multilateral system is falling short in mobilizing the level and composition of capital flows necessary for countries in the Global South to raise living standards and avoid the catastrophic costs of climate change. Rather than channeling a stepwise increase in resources, net capital flows to emerging market and developing countries have turned negative. This predicament would have been much worse if not for the emergence of Chinese overseas …
The development and psychometric evaluation of a nursing professional resilience scale in China
Professional resilience, rather than career resilience, is an important attribute for nurses’ retention in the profession. The concept of nursing professional resilience has just been clarified through a grounded theory study, but the evaluating scale was still lacking. To develop and evaluate the psychometric properties of a nursing professional resilience scale (NPRS). This study was conducted in accordance with DeVellis’s guidelines for scale …
The mediating role of public belonging in the relationship between competitive sports participation, loneliness, and self-harm among adolescents
Findings indicate that competitive sports reduce adolescents' risk of self-harm primarily by enhancing their sense of public belonging. Evidence for buffering loneliness was weaker, implying that loneliness is shaped more directly by family, peers, and broader resources. Theoretically, this extends social identity and social capital frameworks in sport psychology. Practically, it cautions that focusing solely on performance may cause schools to o…
The Effects of “Time” and “Probability” Formats on Risk Perception and Decision‐Making About Long‐Term Hazards
For long‐term hazards, the likelihood of a hazardous event can be communicated in the format of the probability of occurrence per unit time (probability‐based, e.g., a flood with a 1% chance of occurring annually) or the average time of risk occurrence (time‐based, e.g., a 100‐year flood). This study investigates how the two presentation formats influence risk perception and related behavior in long‐term hazard scenarios, such as typhoons, health…
Exploring washback processes in language teaching through teachers’ beliefs in the Chinese National Matriculation English Test (NMET)
Existing empirical evidence demonstrates that teachers’ beliefs play a significant role in mediating the washback effects of high-stakes examinations on teaching practices, despite teachers’ beliefs being recognized as difficult to change. The current study explores how the Chinese National Matriculation English Tests (NMETs) influence teaching practices through teachers’ beliefs. Qualitative interviews were conducted with four experienced high s…
Why patients’ knowledge alone isn’t enough

Psychometric validation of the Chinese version of the perceived stress scale-10 among pregnant women
Stress during pregnancy can significantly impact maternal and fetal health. Accurately assessing perceived stress is crucial for early intervention and improved health outcomes. The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) is a widely used tool for measuring perceived stress. However, the Chinese version (CPSS-10) has not yet been validated among pregnant women in mainland China. This study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the CPSS-10 in t…

Disturbances of Dynamic Function in Patients With Bipolar Disorder I and Its Relationship With Executive-Function Deficit
Abnormity in brain regional function and inter-regional cooperation have been linked with the dysfunction during cognitive and emotional processing in bipolar disorder (BD) patients. Recent evidences have suggested that brain function is not static but temporal dynamic. In present study, we aimed to characterize the temporal dynamics of regional function and inter-regional cooperation in BD and its relationship with executive dysfunction, an impo…

Given the cultural emphasis on academic achievement and environmental constraints to physical activity (PA), active video games (AVGs) may be used to decrease sedentary behavior and increase PA of Hong Kong children. This study explored the potential of a school-based AVG intervention on sedentary time, PA, body composition, and psychosocial factors among children. Eighty-seven children (intervention n = 30) were recruited from one primary school…
Characteristics and requirements of hypertensive patients willing to use digital health tools in the Chinese community
Our survey suggested that among hypertensive patients, willingness to use digital health tools was significantly associated with education, medicine adherence and blood pressure self-monitoring. Digital health tool developers and researchers should pay particular attention to recruiting older, less educated and unemployed patients with less willingness and who are less technologically savvy and research the requirements of WDH patients (blood pre…
Functional Income Distribution, Demand Driven Growth and the Middle Income Trap
It is critical for China to develop its domestic market demand and to engage in technological innovations to escape the Middle Income Trap. However, evidence suggests that China has been experiencing rising functional income inequality, manifested in the declining labor share in national income until very recently. The paper argues that functional inequality contributes to worsening income inequality. This in turn reduces average consumption prop…
