The relationship between social comparison orientation and social media posting anxiety among WeChat users in China
As social media platforms like WeChat gain popularity in China, there is a notable lack of research examining the impact of social comparison orientation on users’ mental health. Grounded in the social enhancement hypothesis, this study proposes a hypothetical model to explore the relationship between social comparison orientation (SCO) and social media posting anxiety (SMPA) among WeChat users in China, with fear of missing out (FoMO) serving as…
Down the rabbit hole of sexting
While prior research has noted that online dating can influence the well-being of psychologically vulnerable populations, the specific role of sexting in this context remains underexplored. Drawing on the social compensation and enhancement hypotheses, we established a serial mediation model to examine how the well-being of people with social appearance anxiety was influenced by sexting behavior in dating applications. Using data from an online s…

Social and cultural adaptation in host countries is crucial for the well-being of international students. Research suggests that information and communication technologies (ICTs) enable international students to develop knowledge of new environments, expand and maintain social networks, and participate in community activities, contributing to their integration into host societies. However, little has been explored on how ICTs are related to their…

Integrating theories from relationship management, organizational socialization, and leadership communication, the current study examines how an essential component of internal communication—leaders’ use of motivating language—can facilitate newcomers’ socialization, strengthen their relationship with the organization, and promote psychological well-being over time. Our findings, based on a two-wave longitudinal survey of 390 full-time employees …

Information experiences of organisational newcomers
Although much has been done to understand employee social media uses, our knowledge of how public social media affect information experiences during organisational socialisation is limited. Filling this gap, this study explores organisational newcomers’ use of WeChat, the most popular public social media in China. Findings from interviews with organisational newcomers who primarily use WeChat for work suggest that they find useful official and un…

Mobile phone paradox
Due to separation from their families and friends in their home countries and constrained living conditions in the host countries, migrant workers usually are found to experience loneliness. Compared with male migrant workers, female migrant workers are more vulnerable and likely to experience higher levels of psychological problems. The ubiquity of mobile phones enables migrant workers to access resources and social support to help to alleviate …
Digital Disinformation About Covid-19 and the Third-Person Effect
Expanding third-person effect (TPE) research to digital disinformation, this article investigates the impact of COVID-19 digital fake news exposure on individuals' perceived susceptibility of influence on themselves, their close others, and their distant others. Findings from a survey of 511 Chinese respondents suggest that, overall, individuals would perceive themselves to be less vulnerable than close others and distant others to the impact of …
Closing the gap on institutional delivery in northern India
INTRODUCTION: Meeting ambitious global health goals with limited resources requires a precision public health (PxPH) approach. Here we describe how integrating data collection optimisation, traditional analytics and causal artificial intelligence/machine learning (ML) can be used in a use case for increasing hospital deliveries of newborns in Uttar Pradesh, India. METHODS: Using a systematic behavioural framework we designed a large-scale survey …
Psychometric Properties of the Parental Bonding Instrument in a Sample of Canadian Children
Examining the Moderating Role of a Mediterranean Diet in the Relationship Between Perceived Stress and Cognitive Function in Older Adults
Findings provide preliminary evidence that the association between higher perceived stress and poorer executive function may be dependent on diet intake. Additional research is needed to confirm these findings
Measuring Perceived Receipt of Filial Piety among Chinese Middle-Aged and Older Adults
Malleable Multiplicity and Power Reliance
This study investigates the impact of social media on journalistic identity presentation in China. We empirically link micro conceptions of journalists and macro changes in media ecology through ethnographic observations of daily routines in a party press. Specifically, our scrutiny of Chinese journalists’ use of WeChat Moments, an equivalent of Twitter, uncovered patterns showing that media organizations’ increasing dependence on state subsidies…
Examining the Factor Structure and Psychometric Properties of the Chinese Version of the Life Orientation Test in Older Chinese Immigrants
The current study examined the factor structure and psychometric properties of the Chinese version of the Revised Life Orientation Test (CLOT-R) in a sample of 342 community-dwelling older Chinese immigrants in Canada (mean age = 71.99, SD = 5.62; 58.5% female). Confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated that the CLOT-R yields a two-factor model with one item cross-loading on two latent constructs of optimism and pessimism. Analysis further reveal…
