Attuning sacred agrarian cultural landscapes
In Yuncheng, China, some state-protected water-deity temples are gradually losing their ritual function, whereas peripheral villages outside official protection continue active rainmaking practices. We ask how these practices are sustained and reorganized amid limited institutional support and an ageing practitioner population. Drawing on embodied ethnography at six temples and 60 interviews, we develop the concept of Cultural Energy Autonomy (CE…
Social connection, social exploration, social and platform constraints
Translating the national mandate
This study investigates how a state-led higher education system engages bottom-up entrepreneurial innovation. Examining the micro-foundations of policy implementation via China’s ‘Double Thousand Plan’ for micro-credentials, we conduct a multi-level case study combining national policies with nine micro-credential proposals from a provincial university. We develop a Regulated Tournament model, arguing that the state does not merely issue top-down…
Prediction of the impact of sea level rise in coastal areas where the tide embankments have been constructed
The impact of sea level rise on coastal space and vegetation communities was investigated. • The eBTM model was used to predict the impacts of future sea level rise on coastal areas. • The combination of distance from tide embankments and pH has the greatest effect on vegetation coverage. • Appropriate coastal width and height aid in maintaining the sustainability of coastal ecosystems. After the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011, the Japanese …
Social determinants of health and depressive symptoms before and after cancer diagnosis
Despite frequent reports of mental health needs among older women with cancer, depressive symptoms often go unrecognized and untreated, particularly in socially vulnerable survivors. Here, we examined associations of sociodemographic factors and social limitations with depressive symptoms from pre-diagnosis to post-diagnosis in older women diagnosed with breast or gynecological cancer. Using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results-Medicar…
Two-Method Measurement Planned Missing Data With Purposefully Selected Samples
Research designs that include planned missing data are gaining popularity in applied education research. These methods have traditionally relied on introducing missingness into data collections using the missing completely at random (MCAR) mechanism. This study assesses whether planned missingness can also be implemented when data are instead designed to be purposefully missing based on student performance. A research design with purposefully sel…
Preliminary Support for the Use of Motivational Interviewing to Improve Parent/Adult Caregiver Behavior for Obesity and Cancer Prevention
Motivational interviewing (MI) is a promising behavioral intervention for improving parent and adult caregiver (PAC) health behavior for obesity and cancer prevention. This study explored the preliminary effects of MI from a registered dietitian (RDMI) within an obesity prevention intervention to promote PAC behavior change and positive proxy effects on children and the home environment. N = 36 PAC/child dyads from low-resource communities were e…
Mediation Impact of Physical Literacy and Activity Between Psychological Distress and Life Satisfaction Among College Students During Covid-19 Pandemic
The study aims to examine the mediation effects of physical literacy and physical activity behavior in a relationship between psychological distress and life satisfaction among Chinese college students during the real-life Coronavirus disease pandemic (COVID-19) circumstance. This study implemented a cross-sectional design, and 1,516 participants from 12 universities participated in this study. Structural equation modeling was used to examine a h…
Assessing Differential Effects of Somatic Amplification to Positive Affect in Midlife and Late Adulthood—A Regression Mixture Approach
This study aims to provide an empirical demonstration of a novel method, regression mixture model, by examining differential effects of somatic amplification to positive affect and identifying the predictors that contribute to the differential effects. Data derived from the second wave of Midlife in the United States. The analytic sample consisted of 1,766 adults aged from 33 to 84 years. Regression mixture models were fitted using Mplus 7.4, and…
Impacts of the let’s know! Curriculum on the language and comprehension-related skills of prekindergarten and kindergarten children
Although substantial research has established how to teach word reading, the research base for teaching skills related to language and reading comprehension is more limited. We report a multi-state experiment of a supplemental, whole-class language-focused curriculum delivered in prekindergarten and kindergarten classrooms that was designed to improve children’s language comprehension and thereby support later reading comprehension. We randomly a…
Need satisfaction and collective efficacy in undergraduate blog-driven classes
This paper investigates how psychological needs spurring self-determined motivation relate to collective efficacy for flourishing in online learning communities. Self-determination theory posits individuals experience intrinsic motivation to flourish at educational tasks because of targeted satisfaction of the three psychological needs: autonomy, relatedness, and competence. However, studies conducted to investigate collective, technology-assiste…
A Call for Leadership and Management Competency Development for Directors of Medical Services—Evidence from the Chinese Public Hospital System
Background: A competent medical leadership and management workforce is key to the effectiveness and efficiency of health service provision and to leading and managing the health system reform agenda in China. However, the traditional recruitment and promotion approach of relying on clinical performance and seniority provides limited incentive for competency development and improvement. Methods: A three-component survey including the use of a vali…
