How growing up without siblings affects the adult brain and behaviour in the CHIMGEN cohort
The impact of medical financial assistance on healthcare expenses and the medical financial burden
Background: The medical financial burden has become a key limitation to accessing healthcare in rural areas of China as healthcare expenses continue to rise. To ensure that low-income people have access to basic healthcare services, China has implemented medical financial assistance (MFA) policy, which provides social health insurance and medical cash assistance for low-income people. Methods: Using data from the 2014 China Family Panel Studies (…
Teacher pay in Africa
Pay levels for public sector workers-and especially teachers-are a constant source of controversy. In many countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, protests and strikes suggest that pay is low, while comparisons to average national income per capita suggest that it is high. This study presents data on teacher earnings from 15 African countries. The results suggest that in several (seven) countries, teachers' monthly earnings are lower than other formal s…

Global urbanicity is associated with brain and behaviour in young people
Urbanicity is a growing environmental challenge for mental health. Here, we investigate correlations of urbanicity with brain structure and function, neuropsychology and mental illness symptoms in young people from China and Europe (total n = 3,867). We developed a remote-sensing satellite measure (UrbanSat) to quantify population density at any point on Earth. UrbanSat estimates of urbanicity were correlated with brain volume, cortical surface a…
Intensification of Midwestern Agriculture as a Regional Climate Modifier and Atmospheric Boundary Layer Moisture Source
Agricultural land use changes have likely played an important role in modifying local and regional climate factors. According to a recent study, summers in the Midwest were significantly cooler and wetter due to the dramatic increases in production of corn and soybeans caused by an intensification of agricultural practices (Alter et al. 2018 Alter, R. E., H. C. Douglas, J. M. Winter, and E. A. B. Eltahir. 2018. Twentieth century regional climate …
Greening Development Lending in the Americas
The Relationship Between Perceived Stress and Adolescent Depression
Instrumental land use investment-driven growth in China
In the past decade or so, local governments in China have significantly increased their land development activities by acquiring land from farmers and leasing it on a large scale to industrial and commercial developers. This paper is an analysis of how land is used under China's existing institutional background as a competitive incentive for local investment. It is argued that local land development activities have contributed to an investment-d…
