Understanding Regional Cultural-Psychological Variations and Their Sources in China
This research comprehensively examined regional variations in individualism and collectivism within China and the explanatory power of 20 potential factors derived from the existing cultural psychological theories, including socioecological (e.g., climates, subsistence activities, and modernization) and population (e.g., ethnicity, genetic and linguistic features) ones. Three large-scale studies were conducted. In Study 1 ( N = 18,606), we assess…
Stakeholders’ willingness to support a new PCT scheme
Personal Carbon Trading (PCT) schemes are considered in the transportation sector to control carbon emission. However, there is limited evidence on the potential and feasibility of PCT schemes as a new transportation demand-focused tool. Therefore, we designed a “Carbon for Electricity” scheme, aiming to explore how such schemes can help reduce carbon emissions in China. A survey was conducted with 1,020 participants from 113 cities in China, foc…

Does Economic Growth Raise Happiness in China? A Comprehensive Reexamination
Has China’s vigorous economic growth raised its citizens’ happiness? Existing studies have portrayed, if not a pessimistic picture, a complicated one. We conducted two studies to clarify this issue. In Study 1, we used data from available national surveys between 1990 and 2018 (64 samples) and demonstrated a significant quadratic U-shaped trend and a rising tendency. In Study 2, we conducted a cross-temporal meta-analysis from 2001 to 2019 (689 s…
Sense of home buffers threats to the self
We hypothesised that sense of home serves as a buffer against self‐threat. In three experiments, we induced sense of home (vs. control) and assessed its buffering function to threat. Sense of home augmented openness to stereotype threat information (Experiment 1), increased performance on a spatial rotation ability test after stereotype threat (Experiment 2), and reduced the desire for high‐status products following mortality salience (Experiment…
Affective Experience on Social Networking Sites Predicts Psychological Well-Being Off-Line
Previous studies have pondered the relevance of social networking sites (SNSs) to psychological well-being, but few have taken online affective experience into consideration. To extend previous research on the relationship between SNSs and psychological well-being, we opted to target emotions experienced while visiting SNSs as a means to predict off-line well-being. In our two studies, we surveyed affective experience on SNSs, overall life satisf…
Communal narcissism
Male = Science, Female = Humanities
The gender-science stereotype of associating males, rather than females, with science is pervasive and influential. The present study challenged the common-sense assumption that it is environment that leads to the gender-science stereotype by conducting a genetically informative study. A total of 304 pairs of twins (152 monozygotic [MZ] and 152 dizygotic [DZ]) completed explicit and implicit gender-science stereotype measures twice across 2 years…
Elicited Awe Decreases Aggression
Awe is a feeling of wonder and amazement in response to experiencing something so vast that it transcends one's current frames of reference. Across three experiments ( N = 557), we tested the inhibition effect of awe on aggression. We used a narrative recall task paradigm (Studies 1 and 2) and a video (Study 3) to induce the emotion of awe. After inducing awe, we first examined participants’ emotion and their sense of ‘small self’, and then the m…
Drivers of cropland abandonment in mountainous areas
Cropland abandonment has emerged as a prevalent phenomenon in the mountainous areas of China. While there is a general understanding that this new trend is driven by the rising opportunity cost of rural labor, rigorous theoretical and empirical analyses are largely absent. This paper first develops a theoretical model to investigate household decisions on farming scale when off-farm labor market is accessible and there is heterogeneity of farmlan…
Le Fardeau de la légèreté
Depuis la naissance de la littérature du Québec qui vise la construction de l’identité québécoise, le rapport entre la saisie du Soi et la perception de l’Autre constitue un noyau dur du discours littéraire. Aujourd’hui, avec l’émergence des écrivains migrants ou néo-québécois (différenciés des écrivains québécois « de souche »), le Soi et l’Autre se rapprochent à tel point que leurs frontières se dissolvent dans cette écriture dite « migrante ».…
La figure de réincarnation, la sinité pulvérisée et l’identité hybride dans la ‘série fantôme’ de Ying Chen
Ying Chen, iconic figure of Quebecois Migrant Writing, openly and repeatedly rejects the exotic label and avoids any essentialist speech on ethnicity. In her series of novels centered on a ‘ghostly’ narrator, Chinese sociocultural references are absent or rather pulverized. Among the very few elements that demonstrate a certain ‘Chineseness’, that of reincarnation, a Buddhist concept that might offer a plausible explanation of the narrator’s ‘mad…
