Measuring Woodcock-Johnson-5 Test-Taking Behavioral Differences Due to Tap Latency in Tablet Devices on Speed Tasks
With the growing use of touchscreen devices in cognitive and academic testing, understanding the impact of tap latency is important for ensuring test fairness, particularly as related to speed tasks. The present study aims to understand how tap latency influences participant test-taking behaviors and performance. Using a counterbalanced within-subjects design, 203 participants aged 5–19 completed three WJ V speeded subtests on both low-latency no…
Game studies do not need disciplinary cohesion
The membranes
In the past decade, both English-language game studies about China and Chinese-language game studies in mainland China itself have grown both in size and intellectual cohesion. This essay is not so much a retrospect on the intellectual development of Chinese-language game studies in China nor English-language game studies on China, but the ‘intellectual membrane’ between them. As a result of continuous conversations with games scholars inside and…
Short videos as affective contagion
This visual essay is a documentation of a series of morbid short videos circulating in local Wuhan chat groups at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, attached with video screenshots and adjacent chatlogs. The data was collected during the author's home quarantine in Wuhan in early 2020. This visual essay aims at viscerally exhibiting the circulation of emotions ranging from anxiety to boredom to lethargy via group conversations surrounding th…
Mobilizing care? WeChat for older adults’ digital kinship and informal care in Wuhan households
The COVID-19 pandemic saw the digital amplify all aspects of our lives—work, sociality, health, intimacy, care, and inequality. In a time of restrictions and physical distancing, the role of the digital for social inclusion—especially for older adults—was heightened with many having to care at a distance. Our study focuses on older adults from Wuhan and the role of the dominant social media app, WeChat, for intergenerational informal care through…
Island, Identity, and Trauma
Following Ivakhiv’s tri-ecological perspective, we undertake an analysis of Wu Ming-Yi’s ecological science fiction The Man with the Compound Eyes , which skillfully delineates a multi-faceted, three-dimensional network of island ecology via anthropomorphic, geomorphic, and biomorphic images. Through a sci-fi imaginary event in which a colossal trash vortex collides with the east coast of Taiwan, the book effectively unveils three profound ecolog…
Governing social eating ( chibo ) influencers
Using the governance of social eating (chibo) influencers as a case study, this article demonstrates the policies, practices, discourses, and politics of China's state‐centric model of influencer governance. We argue that influencers in China are in a relatively precarious position due to various regulations and restrictions imposed upon them by the state, platforms, and industry associations. They are frequently targeted in China's internet gove…
Richang
I tracked one Chinese livestreaming platform Douyu from its emergence as experimental subsidiary of a Video on Demand platform in 2013 to its status as an ordinary medium of mass entertainment in 2018. This affect-inflected ethnography is written based on participant observation of three channels on Douyu as I exhibit the microcontexts of each channel in chronicles of affective events, long pauses of silence, repetitive and incoherent dialogues, …
Introduction
This introduction to the special issue ‘ASIA.LIVE: Inaugurating Livestream Studies in Asia’ briefly summarizes the virtual workshop at which it originated and describes its contributions to the central concept of liveness. After reflecting on the increasingly constitutive role of liveness in digital media, we argue that research on livestreaming should move beyond its focus on gaming and its Eurocentric approach to platforms, drawing on extensive…
InnoRenew CoE International Conference 2020
While I wish these matters could have been discussed in person in Izola, we must embrace new options for discourse on these topics. I hope the conference inspires you to reach out to one another and continue sharing, collaborating, and building communities that embrace the challenge of creating a sustainable and just built environment. You may also consider our new open access and peer-reviewed journal, Interdisciplinary Perspectives on the Built…
The Aral Sea Basin
The alpine cryosphere, including snow, glaciers and permafrost, is critical to water management in the Aral Sea Basin (ASB) and larger Central Asia (CA) under the changing climate, as it stores large amounts of water in its solid forms. Most cryospheric components in the Aral Sea Basin are close to melting point, and hence very vulnerable to a slight increase in air temperature with significant consequences to long-term water availability and to …

Effect of ethanol extract of Selaginella doederleinii hieron on the proliferation of nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE-1 and C666-1 cells
Prevalence of metabolic syndrome and related metabolic traits in an island population of the Adriatic
The Croatian islanders are characterized by a high prevalence of metabolic abnormalities. Central obesity is the strongest contributor of the syndrome. With a high prevalence of dyslipidemia and pro-inflammatory factors, the population is at substantial risk for cardiovascular diseases
