Disappointed or Understood? The Effect of Filial Discrepancy on Life Satisfaction of Older Adults in Rural China
Filial discrepancy, the incongruence between older adults’ filial expectations and filial support received, has become increasingly pronounced amid demographic, cultural, economic, and intergenerational transitions in rural China, presenting psychological challenges for older adults. This study examines its effects on life satisfaction and the mediating role of filial evaluation. Using data from the eighth wave (2021) of the Longitudinal Study of…
How Acculturation Strategies Shape Settlement Intentions of Rural–Urban Migrants in Guangzhou, China: The Mediating Roles of Socioeconomic Status and Subjective Well‐Being
Although acculturation has only recently been linked to migrant settlement, the process through which it unfolds among rural–urban migrants in developing countries remains largely understudied. Utilising data from a rural–urban migrant survey in Guangzhou, this study verifies that acculturation is directly related to settlement intentions and explores the potential mediating roles of socioeconomic status (SES) and subjective well‐being. Moving be…
Bridging distances: Types of social capital, quantity and quality of interactions, and cultural adaptation strategies of highly skilled professionals in China
Technological advancements have alleviated the challenges posed by geographical distance in connecting international migrants with their home countries, leading to transformations in transnational interaction dynamics and enhancing the complexity of cultural adjustment processes. This study examines the relationships between adaptation strategies, transnational social capital, and local social capital in China among foreign high-skilled professio…
Resilience Trajectories Among Older Adults With Disabilities: A Longitudinal Study in Anhui, China
This study applied Richardson’s Resiliency Model to measure resilience in depressive symptoms among older adults with disabilities in rural China and examined its association with age-related and cohort-specific temporal effects using the Growth Curve Model to analyze resilience trajectories. We innovatively used propensity score matching to address confounding variables when calculating the resilience score. Data were derived from the Longitudin…

Functional Transitions Among Older Adults in Rural China: Examining the Differential Roles of Care From Daughters’ and Sons’ Families
Nowadays, daughters' families can provide high-quality informal care, often surpassing that offered by sons' families. This daughter advantage becomes even more significant among older adults who have a higher need for family care, such as those with severe disabilities and limited financial resources
Stressful life events and subjectively rated sleep quality among older adults in China: The roles of positive and negative attitudes towards ageing
Sleep is an integral part of individuals' health and wellbeing. Despite evidence showing that social stressors are important contributors to older adults' sleep problems, how the accumulative stressful life events (SLEs) and ageing attitudes independently and jointly affect sleep quality among older adults in developing countries remains unclear. This study examined the effects of SLEs on subjectively rated sleep quality among older adults in Chi…

Results from multilevel logistic regression models showed that social isolation was related to a …
Can Risk Perception Alter Son Preference? Evidence from Gender-Imbalanced Rural China
It is well established that son preference is the crucial driver for sex ratio imbalance, and that there are risks stemming from such imbalance. Whether risks associated with a gender-imbalanced society may alter son preference will be explored in this study, which has so far received scant scholarly attention. Using data from the Consequences of Gender Imbalance Survey conducted in 2018, exploiting structural equation modelling, this paper shows…
Internal Migration and the Health of Middle-Aged and Older Persons in China: The Healthy Migrant Effect Reconsidered
This study investigates associations between internal migration and health among middle-aged and older adults in China, including variations associated with type of migration (rural-to-urban, urban-to-rural, rural-to-rural, urban-to-urban). Data were drawn from China’s Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (2011, 2013, 2015). Lagged panel and fixed-effect regression models address associations between migration and health outcomes (self-rated …
Socioeconomic Status, Institutional Power, and Body Mass Index among Chinese Adults
Despite the vast literature on the socioeconomic status (SES) gradient of obesity among adult people, no study has investigated the relationship between institutional power and body mass index. Using national survey data from the "China Labor-force Dynamics Survey 2016" (CLDS 2016), multistage cluster-stratified probability proportional to size (PPS) sampling was employed to select cases from 29 provinces, cities, and autonomous regions in China.…

The Status of Family Resilience: Effects of Sustainable Livelihoods in Rural China
Family resilience is the capacity of a family to mitigate adversity using its resources, structure, and internal connections. In rural China, where sustainable livelihoods are changing rapidly because of urbanization and migration, it is not clear how family resilience interacts with sustainability of livelihoods. This study of rural Chinese families classifies individual's perceived family resilience and discusses how sustainable livelihoods inf…
The Impact of the Anti-Poverty Relocation and Settlement Program on Rural Households’ Well-Being and Ecosystem Dependence: Evidence from Western China
To evaluate the effect of China’s anti-poverty relocation and settlement program (ARSP) on both human well-being and ecosystem conservation, we divide the relationship between household well-being and ecosystem dependence into four modes and examine the impact of ARSP on these modes by using household survey data. It finds that relocated households and those under centralized resettlement, voluntary relocation, and new stage relocation fall close…
The status of perceived community resilience in transitional rural society: An empirical study from central China
During China's recent social transition, rural communities have experienced rapid changes in resources, organizational structure, and governance due to urbanization, rural industrialization, and rural-urban migration. How these communities react to social adversity and uncertainty can be assessed with an index of perceived community resilience. Using a Chinese version of the perceived community resilience scale, we analyze data from a multilevel …

The decline in China’s fertility level: A decomposition analysis
Many factors have contributed to the decline in China’s fertility level. Using China’s population census data from 1990, 2000 and 2010, the present study investigates the factors causing the decline in China’s fertility rate by decomposing changes in two fertility indices: the total fertility rate (TFR) and the net reproduction rate (NRR). The change in the TFR is decomposed into the change in the marital fertility rate (MFR) and the change in th…
Understanding Bachelorhood in Poverty-stricken and High Sex Ratio Settings: An Exploratory Study in Rural Shaanxi, China
Coupled with the social practice of female hypergamy, the male surplus within the never-married population means that today's Chinese marriage market is extremely tight in particular for men from a rural background and the least privileged socio-economic categories. Drawing on quantitative data from a survey conducted in 2014-2015, this article sheds light on the situation of single men who are past prime marriage age in three rural districts of …
Rural Households’ Poverty and Relocation and Settlement: Evidence from Western China
Based on survey data collected from five counties across southern Shaanxi, China, the present study employs a multinomial logistic model to explore the main factors related to the type of poverty of rural households, particularly focusing on the role of relocation time, reason for relocation, and type of relocation. The results showed that three types of poverty, "voluntary poverty", "transient poverty", and "chronic poverty", are distinguished b…
The Role of Social Networks in the Integration of Chinese Rural–Urban Migrants: A Migrant–Resident Tie Perspective
Using data from a survey of rural–urban migrants in a city in China, this paper investigates the relationships between migrant–resident ties and migrant integration. Migrant integration is assessed with respect to three dimensions: acculturation, socioeconomic integration and psychological integration. Migrant networks are divided into three categories: kin resident ties, non-kin resident ties and non-resident ties. The relation between resources…
Evidence for an Incipient Decline in Numbers of Missing Girls in China and India
The apparently inexorable rise in the proportion of "missing girls" in much of East and South Asia has attracted much attention among researchers and policymakers. An encouraging trend was suggested by the case of South Korea, where child sex ratios (males to females under age 5) were the highest in Asia but peaked in the mid-1990s and normalized thereafter. Using census data, we examine whether similar trends have begun to manifest themselves in…
Gender Bias in China, South Korea and India 1920-1990: Effects of War, Famine and Fertility Decline
How has the history of the twentieth century affected the extent of female disadvantage in child survival in China, South Korea and India, and how has this in turn shaped spousal availability and marriage payments? These three countries have similar kinship systems which generate discrimination against girls, and they show the highest levels of excess female child mortality in the world. This article explores how the extent of excess female child…
Floating Choices: A Generational Perspective on Intentions of Rural-Urban Migrants in China
Using data from a 2005 survey of rural-urban migrants in Shenzhen, we investigate the intentions of two groups of migrants. We use the birth years from 1970 to 1980 as a reasonable range of dividing lines to separate the two groups. For each year we divide the sample into those born before that year and those born in or after that year. These are referred to as the old generation and the new generation, respectively. Three possible development tr…

"Bare Branches" and the Marriage Market in Rural China: Preliminary Evidence from a Village-Level Survey
Using data from a village survey in rural China, this study explores the relationships between current prevalence of involuntary bachelorhood and its causes and social consequences at the village level. We find that bachelors, inter-county marriage and marriage fraud exist in all regions, and are expected to become more frequent with the increasing surplus of males born after 1980 entering the marriage market. The marriage squeeze and social prob…
Marriage Squeeze, Never-Married Proportion, and Mean Age at First Marriage in China
China's sex ratio imbalance and the surplus of males have received a great deal of attention, but measures of the extent of the marriage squeeze do not take into account the marital status of population. In this paper, we devise an index of the marriage squeeze for the never-married population and use it to project the male marriage squeeze from 2000 to 2060. From the predicted population and nuptiality tables, we estimate trends in the proportio…

Acculturation of rural–urban migrants in urbanising China: A multidimensional and bicultural framework
In many developing countries, including China, large numbers of internal migrants move to cities from rural areas in pursuit of an urban dream, but few studies have addressed acculturation of rural–urban migrants. We construct a multidimensional (in terms of components of acculturation such as practices, values, and identifications) and bicultural acculturation framework to understand adaptation by these migrants. Using data from a Guangzhou surv…

Marriage Form and Son Preference in Rural China: An Investigation in Three Counties
Using data from two surveys in three counties among which the prevalence of uxorilocal marriage varies greatly, this paper analyzes effects of marriage form, as well as individual, family, and social factors on son preference in the context of strict birth control in rural China. It is shown that, under the Chinese patrilineal joint family system, son preference can be inferred from the reproductive behavior of couples in virilocal marriage but n…
Marriage form and family division in three villages in rural China
This paper presents a study of the influence of children's marriage form and other characteristics on whether married couples in three villages in rural China establish a family separate from the joint family of their natal kin. The results reveal that, for children with a brother, sons in virilocal marriages are more likely than daughters in uxorilocal marriages to establish a family separate from that of their parents and do so earlier than the…
Cultural Transmission of Uxorilocal Marriage in Lueyang, China
In this article, the authors report on a study of the cultural transmission of uxorilocal marriage in Lueyang, China. They find that uxorilocal marriage has been commonly accepted and practiced in Lueyang since the beginning of this century, and uxorilocal marriage has been both a contingent and an institutional option for farmers with both preservative and practical purposes. Causes underlying contingent uxorilocal marriage are mostly demographi…
Missing girls’ in China and India: Trends and policy challenges
Child sex ratios plateaued in China between the censuses of 2000 and 2010, a major change from decades of sharp rises. In India they rose by 1.4 per cent during the intercensal period 2001–2011, which is a much slower rate of increase than in previous decades, and reported son preference is falling. In both countries, the largest declines are in regions that had the highest child sex ratios earlier, while some surrounding regions show rises. Stat…

Marriage Squeeze in China's Future
The preference for sons in China and discrimination against girls have resulted in a male marriage squeeze. This paper develops two new indices of the sex ratio among potential first marriage partners by normalising first marriage frequencies and by eliminating the tempo effect in first marriage. Using two newly developed indices and two existing ones, the authors predict China's marriage squeeze for the period 2000–2100. The authors find that th…
Célibat, pauvreté et sexualité des hommes en Chine rurale: Une Enquête Exploratoire
En Chine, le mariage reste socialement très valorisé. Pourtant, alors que jusqu'aux années 1990, presque toute la population parvenait à se marier, un célibat prolongé, voire définitif, va être de plus en plus souvent imposé à une partie des hommes, particulièrement en milieu rural, du fait d'un déficit croissant de femmes sur le marché matrimonial. Or, dans le contexte culturel qui est celui de la Chine, le célibat s'accompagne de frustrations, …
Male Singlehood, Poverty and Sexuality in Rural China: An Exploratory Survey
In China, marriage is still a highly valued social norm, and until the 1990s, practically everyone was able to marry. The situation has changed, however, and a rising proportion of men, in rural areas especially, will experience prolonged and even permanent singlehood due to the growing shortage of women on the marriage market. In the cultural context of China, singlehood is a state of frustration, and even of deprivation, for which it is difficu…

A comparative study of determinants of uxorilocal marriage in two counties of China
A strictly maintained patrilineal family system makes virilocal marriage almost universal and uxorilocal marriage rare in the history of rural China. Uxorilocal marriage can be divided into two types that may be termed, respectively, contingent and institutional. The former preserves family lineages in families without a son and occurs when uxorilocal marriage is uncommon. The latter serves practical economic purposes in families with sons and oc…
Acceptance Of Two Types Of Uxorilocal Marriage In Contemporary Rural China: The Case Of Lueyang
Using data from a survey of cultural transmission of son preference in Lueyang county, this article reports on a quantitative comparative study on acceptance of two types of uxorilocal marriage in contemporary rural China: contingent, driven by household demographic factors, and institutional, driven by practical economic factors. It is shown that the contingent type is more likely to occur than the institutional, and the latter is transmissible …

Our results suggest that higher incidence rates of chronic diseases, lower cognitive ability, as well as heavier house…
The Effects of Inter-generational Support on the Mortality of Older People in Rural China
As inter-generational support is the primary source of support for the Chinese elderly in rural areas, such support is likely to affect their physical and psychological health. This paper investigates the effects of four types of inter-generational support on the mortality risk of the elderly in Anhui Province. Results showed that mortality risk was influenced significantly only by receiving household support. Financial support and personal care …
Marriage form and age at first marriage: A comparative study in three counties in contemporary rural China
Using data from two surveys in three counties in which the prevalence of uxorilocal marriage differs greatly, this article analyzes the effects of marriage form, individual, family, and social factors on age at first marriage and spousal age difference. The results show that, under the Chinese patrilineal joint family system, compared with the dominant virilocal marriage form, uxorilocal marriage significantly lowers women's age at first marriage…
